(you're good)

Sage had slid into the only open seat in the room, a light blush forming on his face when he noticed the girl he had to sit next to. She was cute....very cute, and he hurried to bury his nose into his work so he wasn't just....staring at her. That would be weird, and would probably scare her off. Especially since he looked like....him. He glanced up at the teacher as she spoke, wrinkling his nose slightly as she told them to read another chapter and then come with a summary. He glanced over at the girl periodically, and sort of wanted to introduce himself later. But it was sort of nerve racking. No doubt she already had a boyfriend. At the teachers instructions, he tried to focus on writing, but it was honestly hard and he wasnt very focused on the book they were writing about. He was much more focused on the girl next to him. She was much easier on his brain. And eyes.

Amira copied down her notes, staning at the end of the hour and half class. She looked at the new boy. "Hello. I'm Amira. Where's your next class?"

Sage was working on tossing his stuff into his backpack, when the girl spoke. He zipped it up and looked up at her, brushing a stray strand of hair behind his ear, which had slipped out of the normal messy bun he normally kept it in. "Hey," he noted. "I'm sage." Then he chuckled. "And I have no idea," he noted, handing her his schedule so she could look at it.

"Oh! You don't do clubs?" She asked, stupidly remembering that literature was their last class for today. "That's fine. I don't either." She handed him his schedule, momentarily brushing his fingers.

Sage hummed and shook his head. "I'm still figuring out what's available," he admitted, taking his schedule back and easily slinging has backpack over his shoulder. "We just moved in over the weekend," he added.

"Where do you live? I live on Braxson court." She said, leading him out of the class room, "It's not too far."

Sage have her a curious look when she mentioned where she lived. "Really," he noted in a somewhat surprised tone. "That's where we just moved in. I think I'm close to you," he noted.

She walked out of the school, Sage trailing behind her. "I walk every day. We should go together?" She suggested, nervous at his response.

Sage nodded along to her suggestion, giving her a grin. "Id be alright with that," he chirped, glad to have met someone.

"Where did you grow up?" She asked as they walked along the sidewalk. "I have always lived here. I should probably tell you who not to date. Katie Hutchins, first of all, she's toxic and she uses you. Dangerous in all caps, for sure. I guess also Rebecca, just because she doesn't care who she dates as long as they're rich. And absolutely DON'T date Madison. Good, god, she's a toxic, mean, using trainwreck." As they approached her house she turned. "See you tomorrow? I can walk you to your classes and back home after if that's cool?" She smiled at him in want and adoration before turning and going inside her house. She sighed as she closed the door, locking it. Her brother would be working late, so she decided to have a snack before working on homework. She easily wrote up the summary and put it in her backpack. She went to go read in her room until she got hungry again.
