"The summer break is almost over; I can't wait to go back to school." Alex said sarcastically.

"Well it was gonna end eventually, as the say nothing lasts forever." Josh answered

Alex stood up and headed to the kitchen to get a glass of water. He was dreading the day he would have to enter those stupid halls and see all the people he despised.

"Hey dude, get a bag of chips while you're  in there. " shouted Josh who was still in the other room. Alex sighed and grabbed the chips from the cupboard. He went back into the living room; he had been playing Mario carts with Josh, his childhood best friend.

Alex threw the bag of chips at Josh at Josh and plopped down onto the couch next to him. "I heard there'll be new kids this semester. I heard they're super hot, maybe I'll get a new girlfriend." Josh said suggestively.

"Is girls and food all you think about? Get a life man." Alex said obviously trying to annoy Josh.

"Shut up you don't know nothing, I bet you can't be me in this next round." Josh exclaimed. " Oh you're on!"

The next day Alex woke up with a throbbing headache. He got out of bed and washed his face wetting his golden blonde hair. " Today is the first day of a new semester. It won't be bad right?" Alex sighed and got ready for school.

He went downstairs and was greeted by his cute three year old sister. She was wearing a pink polka dot dress and her dirty blonde hair was tied up into pig tails.

"Jamie" Alex said, picking the tiny person off the ground and into his arms. "Good morning hunny" his mother said behind the kitchen counter.

"Mornin mum, breakfast smells delicious." Alex put his sister down on the chair beside his and their mum served breakfast " Your father said not to cause any trouble at school today."

" Yeah, yeah I know mum, I won't." Alex replied " anyways gotta go, gonna be late for school." He kissed Jamie not the cheek and his mum on the forehead and was out the door.

Alex walked into the school building and was greeted by the usual sight of grey lockers and the smell of sweat. "Might be a new semester but nothings changed. He walked into the classroom and took his usual seat near the window. He stared out onto the courtyard where it was littered with students.

" Hey Alex, seems like we're in the same class this year." Came a female voice behind him. Alex sighed and felt and arm wrap around his. It was Jennifer, the leader of the cheerleaders.

"I see you've been keeping great shape over the holidays huh?" She said as she ran her hand up and down his toned bicep. "Let go of me, I'm not interested." Alex said coldly

"Oh come on Alex, a cheerleader and the hottest guy in school is a match made in heaven." Jennifer insisted. " Why don't you date the quarter back, that's a way better match." He answered sarcasm coating his words.

"You're going to  regret this Alex." She said before walking away. Alex sighed "Great way to start the semester." The bell eventually rang and the teacher entered the Class. Behind him were three faces he's never seen before.  They all had pale skin and were  wearing dark clothing.

Two of them were females and one was male. " These must be the new guys Josh was talking about." Alex thought

"Meyers, you'll be showing them around." Alex let out a quiet sigh; he was already having a bad start to the day, the last thing he wanted was to show some new kids around. " Yes sir" Alex mumbled.

"Ok so there's a free seat next to Alex, you can go sit over there." The teacher pointed out. Alex just faced down hoping the day would end soon. He heard someone sit down next to him and he lifted  his head slightly. It was the male, Alex was kinda hoping to sit by one of the girls.

The person seated next to Alex had straight snow white hair and pale skin. Alex wondered if it was his natural coloured hair or not

"Ok class; get out you text books." The teacher ordered.

The lesson was long and boring, and Alex was you all his willpower to stay awake. He couldn't keep his eyes open and most of the class were asleep. Alex looked over to the person beside him and noticed that he seemed to be concentrating on the lesson.

"He can't be human if he's able to get through this lecture without even yawning." Alex thought.

The bell eventually rang after what felt like hours and everyone poured out of class, soon after the halls were filled with people. Josh came our of the Class next to Alex's.

" Hey dude, you're so lucky you had two babes to join your class." Josh sighed " All we got were four overly attractive guys to steal all the ladies."

Before Alex could give out a sarcastic remark, he was interrupted rudely by a scarlet haired girl. She was one of the new kids.

" Excuse me but your supposed to show us to our lockers." She said rudely.

This annoyed Alex because no one dares to disrespect Alex. If it wasn't for Josh's reassuring hand on his shoulder he would have given her a piece of his mind.

He showed the three to their lockers. " I'm Alex, if you need anything at all just ask." He tried to say it as politely as he could. "Thank yu very much; we're in your care." Came  a quiet voice. It was the other girl, she had black silky hair and looked quite shy. Alex didn't expect she would say anything.

He just smiled and walked away. The bell for the next class eventually rang. Alex took his seat, he noticed four more new faces. Josh came plopping down in the seat next to Alex.

"Hey man are these the guys you were talking about?" Alex whispered. Josh looked around and answered " Yeah man, those are the buttfaces that have been getting all the girls' attention."

Just like the other three, these guys were pale and wearing black as well. " Whats up with these be kids this semester." Alex thought.
