Chapter 1: Chapter One

Gracie, stopped to once again catch sight of him. Her cheeks shone a gentle pink as she saw him stepping towards a classroom door. With her whole body stiff and flushed she looked quite sheepish hiding behind a wall. Gracie herself knew he didn't even realize she existed. But even so, she couldn't help but dream that in the future he would at least notice her gaze toward him.

Noah Liu. A recent Chinese exchange student in her high school. His pitch-black hair and piercing onyx eyes made him popular with the girls just shortly after his transfer. That and the fact that his family was 'comfortable' to say the least, made him even more desirable to the desperate romance stricken young women of this school. Including Gracie herself. But how could she help it?!

That gentle smile he gave her after helping her pick up the books she dropped, made her fall head over heels for him. She knew she was acting odd right now. But she had no confidence to go up to him. She hasn't spoken to him yet too. Gracie watched as he slipped into his classroom, yelling out a few words to his friends.

"Boo!"

Gracie recoiled almost losing her balance at the unexpected noise. She looked behind her and saw the red-headed girl smirking madly at her.

Her brown eyes twinkling with mischief. Her pale complexion was embellished with light freckles. Madison Mayers. Gracies best friend. Something that she sometimes regrets at times like this. Oh, who was she kidding she loved this pyscho!

Her voice trembling with laughter Madison asked, "Grace, you're still stalking him?"

"It's not stalking, Maddie!" She protested.

"Yeah, sorry I mean you're just looking at him from behind a wall like any other normal girl out there!" Maddie retorted.

The duo first met when they were about eleven. They instantly bonded over the fact that they both hated school. They immediately became inseparable afterwards, so maybe this useless school did something good for once since even now five years later they were joined at the hip. Gracie knew she was going to be stuck with this idiot of a best friend for her whole life. Though, which she won't ever admit to the idiot, she suppose that doesn't sound that awful.

Gracie and Maddie quickly parted ways and hastily ran towards their first class. Maddie was in Noah's class. Something that Gracie felt happy about as she can at least talk about him with Maddie better now that she actually knows him more. Gracie had Mr Evans as her teacher. He was the most strict teacher she had in any of her classes. She couldn't afford to be late. And least not now with the excursion so close in date.

Gracies class was going paintballing in a few weeks with Noah and Maddie's class. That is if no one manages to piss the devil off, Mrs Howard. The woman was a walking bomb ready to explode on you. Gracie can't afford to be late. She finally came to her class in time and went inside. She sat down in her seat and waited for the teacher to come. And as always Mrs Howard found someone to relieve her stress put on. Gracie felt sorry for the pitiful guy as that snake of a woman screamed till her voice gave out at him.

Time went by slowly for Gracie. She wanted to see Noah again. The bell rang just as that thought passed through her head. She quickly snatched her backpack and raced to the usual spot she ate with Maddie. Noah and his mates were usually near there as well.

She checked around and saw that Noah wasn't there yet. She noticed Maddie sitting on a bench waiting for her. She strolled to her and slumped down next to her. The two grinned at each other as they waited for Noah to come. Gracie felt her heartbeat rapidly all of a sudden.

He came.

Gracie almost jumped up as she saw Noah coming near. Her face heated up as she saw Maddie's small smirk. She had a bad feeling eyeing that mischievous face. Her thoughts came true when she saw her get up and walk over to Noah's group. Maddie boldly walked towards them. Pausing to face Gracie, who she smiled sweetly at her before continuing.

Grinning Maddie asked, "Hey, guys do you want to sit together?"

The guys looked at each other. Seeing that no one had any objections they bobbed their heads. Maddie sneaked a glance at Gracie before exclaiming, "Great! Come on my friend is over there."

Gracie felt Noah's eye on her as she gaped down at her hands. She was going to kill Maddie afterwards! She halted her thoughts as they got nearer to her spot. Oh no! Did she look alright?! She doesn't even have time to check with a mirror! Maddie!

"This is Gracie, my best friend!" Maddie explained to them.

"Nice to meet you, Gracie," acknowledged Shane, Noah's best friend.

The group consisted of Noah, Shane and Alex.

Alex was a year younger and also Shane's cousin. While Noah had a more relaxed and soft look, Shane's face was more masculine and chiselled. His tanned skin and grey eyes attracted countless girls. While Alex had a more "youthful" look. Childish in away. Medium length wavy red hair that was tied back and chocolate brown eyes that always seemed to be full of life.

"Yeah, nice to meet you." Gracie was amazed that she hadn't stumbled on her words already.

She looked around as they all settled beside her one by one. Maddie, of course by her left side. While Noah to her right, courtesy of Maddie. Who specifically told him to. Gracie found herself unable to stop glimpsing at Noah. She was about to take one last peek at him when she instead found herself staring into a pair of onyx coloured eyes.

"Haha, that scared me!" He giggled his face flushed slightly pink.

"Me too!" Gracie found herself smiling along with him.

"You're in the same cooking class as me, right? With Mrs Howard, " Noah asked.

"Yep, we're both out of luck with that class,"

"I know, out of all the teachers we could've had! It just had to be the most demanding one,"

Gracie's mind was in chaos because of the fact that she was actually having a conversation with Noah, "I mean at least we can bond over the fact that we both loathe her?"

Noah snorted jokingly and said, "Right, that's a plus for me!"

"Oh, so you don't want to bond with yours truly over here! How rude!"

"I'm just teasing I would die to get to know you, ma'am,"

Gracie got thrilled at the prospect of her at least becoming friends with Noah. Her eyes felt like they would explode with tears of happiness any time now. Before she could say anything she heard snickering from around her. Noah looked to have heard it as well judging by his confused look. They turned around and saw Maddie and the others trembling with laughter.

The two saw that their friends were staring at them with knowing looks. Gracie's face burned with embarrassment. She saw from the corner of her eye that Noah was reacting as awkwardly as she was. Gracie's lips curved happily at that thought. So she wasn't the only one!

He also was flustered. Gracie beamed with euphoria at Noah. Noah's eyes expanded a bit before returning a cute grin. Oh god! Even his grin was flawless! There's no going back now. She's falling for him more and more. This unrequited infatuation of hers...could there actually be hope for it?
