"Okay so I'll be grading you on your posture, tone, manners, and how well you lie." She names off our partners and I was by myself in my own group which is fine by me, I work well that way. We arrived in the town Jacksonville we all stared out our windows soaking up the view, the bus driver stopped in front of the park and we all filed out. "Put these in your ears and be careful." She told us our targets and unlucky for me I got a teenage boy. I walked behind him a few minutes taking in his features, he had blonde hair and looked to be about 5ft 7inches, he wasn't the most muscular but not the smallest either, then I crossed the street running a little ahead of him then crossed the street again and turned to walk towards him, making sure I bumped into him.

"Oh I'm so sorry, I didn't see you there." I apologized and he kind of laughed.

"It's alright, it's probably more my fault than yours." I shook my head and he continued to stare at me. "You new around here? I haven't seen you before."

"Yeah I'm new. Trying to figure out where everything is actually." Mrs. Young's voice came through on my ear 'Good lie Vaught keep it up' then it went dead.

"Well how about I show you around? My names Tyler by the way." He stuck his hand out for me and I shook it.

"I would love that and my name is Alyssa." We started walking towards the city part instead of the park.

"So what made you move to Jacksonville? Not many people want to move here." I looked into his blue eyes trying to read him.

"My mom got a job up here so we moved." He nodded and we walked in silence for awhile. "So Tyler, may I ask how old you are?" He chuckled a bit. 'Good manners Mrs. Vaught.'

"19 and yours?"

"18." He smiled and opened the door to a café. "Want something to drink? My treat." I shook my head.

"No thank you." He rolled his eyes and ordered me a water anyway. We sat down at a table and I looked over to see Holly talking to her target a teenage boy also. "So tell me a little about yourself."

"Well, I've lived here in Jacksonville all my life. I love to play soccer and guitar. I am active and I love the outdoors. That's all I guess. Tell me about you." He stared into my blue eyes and I stared back.

"Just moved here, I love the outdoors and being active, I love to read books and play video games." He raised an eyebrow at me.

"Tom-boy?" I nodded and he smiled. "Awesome, what school you going to go to?"

"I think my mom is going to homeschool me. I was homeschooled before I came here anyway." He nodded seeming to believe me. he checked his watch and stood up.

"Well it was nice to meet you, but I need to go and pick up my little sister from her dance practice. Can I see you again sometime?"

"We might meet again." He laughed and opened the door for us to leave the café we walked outside and parted ways after saying goodbye. I walked back to the bus seeing a few girls already finished.

"Great work Vaught, very good." I smiled and sat down beside Holly.

"Dude your guy was hot!" She smiled and I laughed.

"Yours wasn't half bad either." She blushed a little. "What's his name?"

"Zach. Yours?"

"Tyler." We sat talking about our targets and waited for the other girls to arrive. After we got back to the school we went to dinner and my Aunt called me back to her office.

"So how was your mission today?" I looked at her confused. "In your manners class."

"Oh, it was good. Got a A on it." She nodded and smiled.
