Polar Opposites

"Have you changed your mind about going to the party tomorrow night, Julie?" Beth asked.

"I don't know as yet." I said taking a bite of my Nutella sandwich. "Maybe."

Beth sighs. "Please say yes. I can't go alone."

Bethany Davis and I were currently in the cafeteria having our lunch. I really did not want to go the party, but I did not want to let my best friend down.

I look at her and sigh heavily "Okay, I will go."

"Thank you, thank you, thank you." She chants and I shake my head at her enthusiasm.

Through the corner of my eyes, I saw Liam Black enters the cafeteria and went to buy his lunch. After buying his lunch, he went and sit at the far corner of the cafeteria by himself.

Liam was always sitting by himself and he doesn't talk to anyone. I don't know, but the mysterious aura around him makes him a little intriguing. He didn't keep friends and no one took any interest in him. They just avoid him all together. He was good looking though, with his messy black hair and deep blue eyes.

Why didn't he talk to anyone?

Was he shy?

Antisocial?

Does he not like peo-?

I was brought from my thoughts, when I hear Beth calling my name. I looked over at her.

"Who were you staring at just now? You did not hear a word I just said." Beth accuses.

"I am sorry. I was just staring at Liam." I said admittedly.

"You mean the boy over there that keeps to himself?" She questions in surprise and I nod. "Don't you dare think about befriending him. I know you love to brighten everyone's day, but this kid is different. I have a few classes with him and believe me he doesn't want to be disturbed, I know."

"I don't know, I just feel like I should do something." I replied.

"If you think you must, but remember I warned you." Beth said.

The bell rang and we both head for our next class. I was just turning from my locker when I jumped. Someone was leaning beside my locker and I gasp. I look up to see who it was.

It was the hottest boy in school, Nate Benjamin. He smiles at me. "I didn't mean to scare you."

"I-I-It's okay." I stutter. Oh my God, I can't believe he is talking to me. He was really cute with blond hair and green eyes.

"Well, I wanted to ask you something." He said.

"Oh, okay." I said simply, trying to play it cool.

"Are you going to Matt Lanter's party tomorrow night?" He asked. "I was wondering if we could go together?"

OMG!! Someone please pinch me!

Nate wants me to go to the party with him?

Like on a date?

"Yes, I would love to." I said trying to act normal.

He gave me his killer smile and winked. "Pick you up at 7. See you then."

"See you then." I said and head to my class.

I was going to a party with Nate Benjamin, one of the hottest guys in school. I was so lucky!
