I walked into my history class, and there he was, sitting in the very back. The only seat left was next to him. Of course I thought as I put my stuff down. He turned to face me.
"Hi, I'm Daniel Cullen." He held out a pale hand to shake. After a second of surprise, I took his hand in mine, immediately after I took it back. It was freezing! I mean, I knew it was cold outside but this was ridiculous!
"What?" he asked with a concerned look on his face.
"Your hands…. They're cold."
"I'm sorry. I'm not a very warm natured person, I guess." Then the teacher started talking. Great, another partner project. I'll probably get stuck with an idiot.
"I will choose your partners. Daniel Cullen, you will be partnered with…." she looked at her clipboard, "Victoria Moorington." I turned to look at him, and he was already looking at me.
"I guess I'm your partner." I said, looking down at my hands.
"I guess you are." He said with a chuckle. Did I mention he has a British accent? Sooooooooooooooo dreamy.
We started to work. Actually he did, I'm still not sure what the project is supposed to be on. When it was about time for us to leave, he began to talk.
"Can we work at your house after school today?" he asked, laying down his pencil.
"Um, no. Sorry. My mom doesn't let me have guys over, even for school projects. Can we go to your house instead?"
"I'll have to ask… I'll see, ok?"
"Okey dokey then!"
"Good bye."
"Good bye," I said, imitating his accent, "I'll see you later. Here's my number and my address, so you can call me about the project."
We both left the room at the same time.
