Chapter 4

Danielle's POV:

The bell rang signaling the end of Latin, so we could go to lunch.

"Ugh. Yes finally!" Sean groaned. I giggled and got my lunch out of my new locker.

"Where is the cafeteria?" I asked. I had not seen one the entire day and i am pretty sure we walked the entire school.

"Ohhh. I forgot to tell you. We dont have one!"

"What? All schools have cafeterias!"

"Hah! Not this one. You are free to leave campus as long as you are back by sixth period."

"That's so cool! They give you so much freedom here! At my old school they treated it like a prison."

"Ya. We usually go to the spot we meet in the morning, but sometimes we go to Bee or Ryan's house because their's are the closest. Oh by the way, did you move into Ringold Field? On Haystride Way?"

"Yeaa.. How did you know that?"

"Because i live on that street and someone just moved in so i just guessed that it was you. I guess we are neighbors now!"

"Ya that's cool! I walk home, do you?"

"Ya! We could walk home together. I mean if you want to. You don't have to-"

"Ya that would be nice!" I responded. He smiled warmly at me as we approached the rest of the group for lunch.

"I see she hasn't gotten creeped out by you yet." Jordan chuckled.

"Oh shut it." Sean laughed sitting next to him.

"Dani!" Bee called to me.

"Bee!" I yelled back. I went and sat next to her. Throughout lunch we all chatted, and i was feeling like i belonged.

"Hey, Dani. We should start walking down to the Choir room because it's on the opposite side of the school. BYE GUYS!" Bee yelled.

"BYE BEE!" Jordan yelled back winking at her. Was there something between them. Hmmm. I started walking with Bee when i felt a hand on my shoulder. I turned around to come face to face with Sean.

"Uh, hey!" I said awkwardly.

"You forgot your math binder, so here." He told smiling. He handed me my binder.

"Oh thanks! Kinda need this!" I joked even more awkwardly.

"Haha yaaa. See you in Drama!" He said. We stared at each other for a while until Bee called me and i ran to catch up with her. I could still feel Sean's eyes on me until i turned the corner.

"So Sean. You like him?" Bee randomly asked as we were walking.

"Wait what?" I asked confused.

"Oh, don't act dumb. There is some obvious sexual tension between you two."

"It's only been one day! I don't even know any of you! For all i know, you all could be axe wielding murderers!" I said over reacting the whole thing. We both burst out laughing in the middle of the hallway. It was as if we had known each other our whole lives.
