"Hailey, wake up! You're late for your class!"

A familiar voice booms in my ear, disturbing me from one of the best dreams I have ever had featuring my crush with no shirt on. I grunt, lifting my head off the table with my eyes close.

"What is it, Emma?" I half yawn and half asking my best friend who looks so beautiful with her honey brown hair and classy feminine feature. 

"You're late for your Lit class, dummy." She pinches my cheeks to wake me up from daze. I blink my eyes a few times and look at her before she yells into my ear, again. "Mrs. Parker will give you detention if you're late again."

Detention? No, nuh uh. I look at my wrist watch. Man, I've missed 15 minutes of Lit class already! I'm so going to get detention this time and it'll affect my almost clean record for real. 

"Why didn't you say so, Emma?" I quickly pack my stuffs into the bag.

Emma sighs as she put her hands on her hips as if to say that she's really pissed off. "You say I didn't try waking you up earlier? I just got here from my Art class and I've been trying to tell you but you still have that head of yours in dreamland."

"Alright, I'm sorry. Gotta go, thanks!"

I quickly rush out the classroom and head over to Mrs. Parker Literature Class. This is who I am, Hailey Jones. I'm a normal not so fantastic senior who often daze in History class and definitely don't belong to any representative clique of any sort. Did I say that I last dated when I was a junior and now I have a crush on the school's most wanted guy? But, those things don't matter now, right?

What matters would be that I'm really going to get into detention for being late. And what more could be worse than that right?

Splash.

Well, I take back what I say about detention being a bad thing.

"Yeah man! Nice doing!"

"You just got to see her face!"

"Senorita, you look so watery."

I turn to my right and there was the heart throb troublemaker of Brown's High, Chace Knight with his notorious friends laughing their butts off in front of the male washroom. I recognize the other guy next to Chace, Sam Hunter, his right-hand man who's almost as devastatingly good looking as Chase. 

Wow, what a way to get to see my lovely crush and it's just simply awesome. Now I'm dripping wet from head to toe, thanks to them. Luckily I'm the only one in the hallway.

With a force smile, hiding my almost about to burst anger, I say to them, "Thank you for cooling me down and it's definitely a huge honor to be your source of pleasure, gentleman.

 

 

"What a lovely night. Let's watch Harry Potter. I miss my Fred and George." I say to myself, heating frozen lasagna for dinner.

It's a terrible day for me today. First of, I was late for class. Then, I got prank by those troublemakers and ended up in wet clothes which I have to survive on until I meet up with Emma to borrow her clothes. Lastly, I got myself into detention for the first time since becoming a senior. Urgh.

All I have to do is to forget those events right now by using Harry Potter as a therapy. I plop on the sofa and place my feet on the table. Food, check. Stitch plushie, check. Remote control, check. "Let's sit back and enjoy."

Half way throughout the movie, I have found myself drifted to Hogwarts until I heard the sound of someone knocking the front door and ringing the door bell. 

Ding Dong. Ding Dong.

"Who on Earth would come over at this hour?" I mutter and place the half eaten lasagna on the table. Whoever this person would be, I hate him for disturbing my movie night.

"Who is it?" I shout.

"Someone you know!"

I fasten up my steps as the door bell continues ringing together with the voice of the person demanding me to let him in. 

"Hey, open up!"

"I'm-" Oh my god, I take back what I said before. Screw Harry Potter, this is way better.

As soon as I open the door, he makes his way in hastily and shut the door. I stand there rigidly, staring at the guy standing 6 feet tall. His choice of a white t-shirt and denim jacket makes his not so bulky lean body looks exquisite. I can't believe my eyes so I blink a few times. Chace Knight is in my house and he's looking at me with his magnificent blue eyes.

"Umm, hey hello." He waves his hand in front of me, redirecting me back to reality.

"Oh hi." 

Awkward alert!

"You're the girl that got splash right?" He chuckles.

"Oh yeah, that's me." He remembers me, yes! "What brings you here? In my house, at this time." I show him the way to the living room and let him have a seat.

I'm trying to act normal, but on the inside I'm feeling over the moon. 

"I was trying to escape from the police. We nearly burnt the playground." He lets out a small laugh and rested his legs on the table. "You're Hailey, right?"

My jaw just dropped. He nearly burnt the playground! That much trouble? But how in the whole universe does he know my name? We've never really become friends of sort. Maybe he stalked me before? Nah, that seems impossible. Or maybe-

"We've been in a group project together when we're in seventh grade. Remember? That explains how I know your place. We used to do the project here." He explains before I jump into unrealistic conclusions.

But the funny thing is, he only came to the project work once out of the many times. Typical Chace Knight.

"So umm, do you want something to eat?" I ask.

He says yes. I head to the kitchen to get him lasagna and a glass of orange juice. He's texting someone when I've got back from the kitchen with his food. He gives a simple smile of thanks in return and it makes me melt like cheese.

"So your parents aren't home yet?" He asks.

"They're on their anniversary vacation in France. They won't be back until next month." I say, trying my best not to look at him.

As he eats, his eyes couldn't stop looking around the living room. I bet he's awkward too. Then he sets his eyes on the TV. "Seriously, Hailey? Harry Potter?"

I frown. "Hey, it's not a bad thing. You're not-"

Ding dong. Ding Dong.

On boy, who could that be?
