Aimee's POV
I walked up the steps and entered Redwin High. I was greeted with friendly faces and pity looks. I guess i made it pretty obvious that i wasn't over Daniels death yet. I headed to the bathroom with my head down so my hair would cover my face. I got to the bathroom and looked at my reflection.
I had jet black hair that went down to my shoulder blades, and dark brown eyes that were usually covered with my hair. Daniel had actually thought i was beautiful.
------
"Hey Daniel!" I said giving him a hug."Where's Christina?" I said feeling a pang of jealousy.
"She promised a friend she would go shopping with her today. So it's just you and me." My heart skipped at those words.
"Okay then. Let me just go get ready because I look terrible right now."
He reached up and brushed my hair out of my face. "I think you look pretty damn beautiful." I blushed at his words.
"As pretty as Christina?" I asked in a low voice.
"Prettier." He said and pulled me in for a hug.
-------
I reached my hand up and wiped away my tears. Today was my first day of school and Daniel would have wanted me to be happy. I put on the fakest smile i could manage and walked out to my first class.

Nate's POV
I walked into my first class already feeling tired from how things were going. The teacher was already taking roll when i walked in.
"Nice of you to join us Mr. Tanner." He said in a rough voice. "Please take a seat next to Ms. Blake"
I looked around the room not knowing who Ms. Blake was, when i saw a girl staring at me. She was really pretty, and then i recognized her. She's the girl that no one can stop talking about. The girl that lost her friend in an accident.
Her eyes were a little red and puffy. But somehow she still managed to look pretty. I gave her a small smile hoping it didn't look like a pity one. I walked over to her table and said, "Are you Ms. Blake?"
She gave a small smile. "Yeah." She said quietly. I sat down. I couldn't concentrate on what the teacher was saying because i kept glancing at the girl next to me. She looked ahead as if she were thinking of nothing in particular.
She looked sad and lost. I wanted to grab her in my arms and hold her. And tell her "everything will be okay."
What was wrong with me? I'm going out with Becky i couldn't be thinking of her that way.
The bell rang. I grabbed my books and walked out of the class without another glance back.

Aimee's POV
I watched as he walked out of the class without a word. Not that i had wanted to talk to him. In fact i didn't want to talk to anybody except for Daniel right now. I missed him so much.
I walked out of the school to mine and Daniels favorite hiding spot. I didn't care if i got in trouble. I reached the back of the school and sat next to our tree. I hugged my knees against my chest and softly cried. If only I'd told Daniel how i felt about him sooner. "I promise that I'll never love anyone Daniel. Just come back. Please." I whispered to myself.
I knew it was pathetic because nothing could bring Daniel back. Nothing.
I heard footsteps behind but i didn't bother to look back at who it was. "You okay?" I immediately recognized the voice. It was the boys. I memorized his voice because it reminded me of Daniel's. It was soothing and it made me feel safe.
I looked up and found him sitting down next to me. "Is that a pity are you okay, or do you actually care?"
"I care." He answered with no hesitation. He must have realized this because he turned a light pink.
I sniffled and wiped a tear away. "I guess I'm okay. I just have to get away from everything sometimes you know?"
"Yeah. I have to do that a lot."He said honestly. "Who was it?"He asked.
"Who?"
"Yeah. You're friend."
"Oh." I said sighing.
"It's cool if you don't want to talk about it. I'm not forcing you."
"No it's okay. I guess i have to talk about it sometime right?" I said. So i began.
----
Nate's POV
I knew this was bad. Me caring for her so much. But i felt like i had to get to know her. No matter what. I sat there with her while she told me everything.
"He was my friend. My best friend actually. We did everything together. Problem is that I loved him. Not as a friend. But more than that." She paused. "I never told him that. And that's what kills me inside." She said new tears streaming down her face.
Without thinking i reached up and brushed the tears away. She looked into my eyes and for a second there was nothing in the world that mattered except for her.
I leaned in closer and felt her cool breath on my skin. Our lips met but by that time i wasn't thinking at all. The kiss was soft and gentle as if she were being cautious. Then she pulled away. She stood up and got ready to leave.
"I'm sorry I shouldn't have done that." Problem is I didn't regret it one bit.
She bit on her lip and said, "I'm sorry." Then she walked away leaving me. I walked to my class still thinking about her when i realized, i hadn't even gotten her name.
