I watched intently as Marcel spoke with our teacher, Ms. Hall. I quickly noticed his adorable dimples forming while he chuckled at something Ms. Hall told him. He was quite handsome and very different from every guy attending Sunnyvale High. He wore a white dressing shirt with khaki pants and a funny looking brown vest. If it weren't for his lean body and cute face i would have thought that outfit was a disaster, but it actually suited him. The bell than rang, indicating that class was starting causing everyone to quiet down and turn to the front. I guess no one else noticed Marcel walk in besides me because everyone stared at him confusingly.

"Okay class, we have a new bee in our beehive! His name is Marcel so i want you all to show him respect and friendliness like we do here at Sunnyvale." she cheered as if she was introducing the president or something. I didn't mind, i was happy that she was trying to make him feel welcome. I watched as Marcel scanned the room with a bright smile on his face. When he looked over to my side of the room i made sure to send him a friendly smile.

I could already hear the rude remarks the jocks and cheerleaders were whispering amongst themselves from a couple rows in front of me. They really need to learn how to whisper, im sure the whole class, including Marcel, heard the crude remarks.

"Look at his shoes! Not even my grandfather wears those."
"I know and that hairstyle was so 1980."
"He is definitely not going to fit in here."
"Who wears slacks on the daily basis? What a prick."

I watched as Marcel's perfect smile turn into a frown as he shifted uncomfortably. My protective side took over which caused me to stand up from my seat, slamming my hands on the desk causing everyone in the room to turn around and stare at me.

"You all are complete idiots! Who are you to judge someone who you haven't even met for five minutes! You all should be ashamed of yourselves! Dumbasses!" I yelled making my point clear. Their reactions were priceless, some looked shocked while others gave me a disgusting look, but all of that didn't matter when i caught Marcel's cute, goofy smile reappear on his face. At that moment i knew i had to be friends with him, protect him from these evil wannabes because all i wanted to see from his was his to-die-for smile. I smiled back at him, looking straight into his eyes and his into mine. What interrupted our little moment was Ms. Hall's shriek.

"Miss Winkler we don't use that language around here!! Office now!" she said with both anger and embarrassment in her voice.

"What?? Did you not hear what everyone else was saying about Marcel?" I half yelled, clearly shocked to why im getting in trouble for defending someone who was getting bullied.

"No i did not so gather your things and please go" she said as she walked back to her desk to get a office referral. Great i got in trouble not even ten minutes into the school day. I heard giggles coming from every direction but i ignored them all as i packed my things and made my way to the front. Marcel gave me a small smile as i walked by, me doing the same. I reached Ms. Hall's desk who just gave me my referral and pointed to the door as if i didn't know my way out of class.

One day down, 270 more to go.

I didn't see Marcel the rest of the day, i caught myself thinking about him as i spent my first day back to school in the front office. I had told my principal, Mr. Cherry exactly what happened and he understood but told me that i still had to stay in here until school was over. Ugh. I listened to One Direction's new album Take Me Home the whole day, causing me to daydream back and forth from my boys to Marcel. I wonder if he's okay right now, i hope hes not being bullied again, i just wish i was there to watch over him. Those were all the thoughts that ran through my head all day until finally the school bell rang indicating that school was out. I took my earphones out and put them in my purse along with my phone and left without saying bye to the office ladies, they all knew that i was a good student but today they treated me like a delinquent.

I felt my phone vibrate in my purse so i rummaged through my bag while turning the corner causing me to bump into someone who was running full speed. Luckily for me i didn't fall onto the floor but i did end up dropping my purse, spilling all the contents onto the hallway floor. I quickly fell on my knees to pick everything up before everyone else walked by. As i was picking up my things i noticed the shoes of the person who i had bumped into... Marcel.

"Oh my gosh im so sorry! Here let me help you!" he said obviously embarrassed that he caused this to happen. He helped me pick up the remaining of my belongings and helped me up. "No its okay Marcel, it was my fault too! i should have looked where i was going" I said adding a smile so he knew it was okay. He eyed me to make sure i wasn't lying which only caused me to smile ever more.

"Sorry again, you see i ran all the way from the other side of the building just to come meet you in the office before you left so i can apologize for what happened this morning and also thank you." he said nervously while playing with the buttons of his vest. He was so sweet, running all the way to the office just to apologize to me before i left. I didnt know if what i was going to do next would be okay with him or not but i did it anyway. I jumped on my tippy toes and wrapped my arms around his waist, embracing him in a hug. He didnt hesitate to hug back which only made me hold him tighter. I knew i just met him but i could feel myself slowly falling for this nerdy boy. We stayed like this for a bit longer before letting go. I could tell he was blushing which made me squeeze his cheeks. He chuckled as i did this.

"Apology accepted Marcel, besides that's just who i am. I stand up for my friends" I said proudly, "you see i was always bullied when i was younger and no one would defend me so now when i see people getting picked on, my protective instinct comes out." He nodded in understandment.
"You have a beautiful heart Winkler" Marcel said while winking. I laughed a little, did he just call me by my last name? "My name is Sophia by the way, sorry i haven't introduced myself properly" I said in between giggles. I laughed along with me, his laugh was adorable along with everything else. He was actually perfect.

"Well in that case, Sophia, you are amazing! Thanks again, see you tomorrow" He said before walking out the side door. All of the sudden i went from having a terrible day to a pretty good day.

HARRY'S POV

I had just gotten out the shower, washing away all the gel Lou had to put on my hair to get my untamed curls in the hairstyle i was to wear in public. I was so happy that no one knew who i was, it was such a trill actually. I walked into my bedroom and took out a plain white t-shirt with black sweats. I had homework to do for the first time in three years so i was ready to get it over with. I walked downstairs towards the kitchen to find Louis eating a bowl of watermelon.

"Whats up Louis?" I asked as i settled all my books on the kitchen table. He continued to munch as he attempted to speak.
"Nothing... its boring... with you not ....here.." he said in between bites. I laughed as i pulled out my assignment.
"Hows school? Meet any friends?" he asked as he put his now empty dish in the sink.

The caused me to smile. I thought back to the girl with gorgeous long wavy hair. She had definitely caught my eye.

"Yeah i met a girl." <3
