  I looked at the clock at saw it was only 1:00 p.m. School didn't get out until 4:00, damn it. I tapped my pencil on my desk and waited for the bell to ring. While watching the clock, I heard someone clear their throat so I quickly looked over my shoulder and saw some guy staring at me. I don't ever remember seeing him before, his golden brown eyes and beautiful brown hair was stunning but I still hate it when people look at me, I litterally don't know what to do. I looked back at Mrs. Wallson and shook the feeling of eyes on me. "And that's how you-" Mrs. Wallson said but she got cut off by the bell.

  I heard lots of people sigh in relief, me included. I grabbed my backpack from behind me and headed to lunch. I was starving.

  When I entered the room I saw most of the tables were taken so when I spotted one I ran as fast as I could and put my backpack on the table. At least no one was gonna steal it. I opened my bag and pulled out the lunch mom made for me; a turkey sandwhich, chips, and a flavored water. I'm used to eating by myself so I was shocked when someone said, "Can I sit with you?" I jumped and looked up to see who asked me that and saw....it was the guy staring at me in class. "I don't know. Can you?" I responded.

  Wow, real smooth, Star.

  He gave me a heart stopping smile and said, "I hope so."

  What the hell...? "U-uh y-yeah, you can s-sit w-with me," I studdered. He nodded and took his backpack off. He wasn't a small person, he was built and tall. I seriously didn't see any flaw in him. "I'm Flame," he said. "You what?" I asked in disbelief. "My name is Flame," he laughed. "Wow um...I'm Star," I said. Flame looked at me with shock written on his face. "What?" I half laughed. How was this dude shocked my name was Star when his name was freaking Flame?

  "Oh uh...nothing," he lied. I bit my lip and pulled my hood up, a few of my black hair strands sticking out.

  I took a bite of my sandwhich and said, "I don't remember seeing you around." He winked, which made my stomach flip flop, and said, "Cause I'm new." His deep voice was very calming. He pushed my hood down and said, "You have pretty hair, don't cover it up." I probably blushed really hard because I don't know how to respond to compliments, especially when they come from gorgeous people like Flame. I gulped and mumbled, "Thanks." He gave me a small smile and started eating his food. Why was he talking to me? Especially when there's tons of other people here.

  "Do you have any siblings?" He asked me. I nodded and said, "Yes, I have one sister. Her name is Allie"

  "How old is she?"

  "She is one year younger than me so shes 16," I said. I was 17 and my birthday is in a couple months. "What about you?" I asked him. He sighed and said, "I have three brothers and one sister. The oldest brother, Phoenix, is 23. The second oldest is my brother, Edan, he's 19. The third oldest is me, I'm 17. The fourth in line is my sister, Bridgett, who's 16. And then my younger brother, Blaze, he's 15." I looked at him in shock. "That must be a busy household," I said, my mouth still dropped open. He softly laughed and said, "That's for sure. It's better now that Phoenix is out of the house, though."

  "Is he like the annoying one?" I asked. "Definitely," he simply said. I nodded and stopped to think about all the names he just said...Phoenix, Edan, Flame, Bridgett, and Blaze. "Correct me if I'm wrong but, don't all those names mean fire," I said. "Phoenix is a mythical bird known for rising from its ashes, ashes are created from fire. Edan is a name of Irish, it means "little fire." Flame is pretty self explanatory," I explained. I paused for a moment then continued, "I'm pretty sure Bridgett is the mythological Celtic goddess of fire and poetry. And Blaze is also self explanatory." I took a breath and said, "I'm no genius or anything-"

  "You're very smart," Flame cut me off. I blushed again...why was I acting like this? The bell rang and I immediately stood up. "Well, uh, I gotta go to class. Bye, Flame, nice meeting you," I quickly said. He nodded and waved me off. I ran to my next class and took a deep breath. I hope I won't be able to see him again....or...is that a lie?
