"Now what do you want, Kessler?" Jonny snapped at that boy.

"I don't remember inviting you to this party," the boy replied, now I know his name is Kessler. "And not her." He look myself.

"I'm just here for my brother, moron," I snapped, wriggling out of Jonny's grip, feeling awkward.

Kessler laughed.

"Well, well, but the girl has guts" he came dangerously close to me " I like you."

"Get off." I pushed him but it didn't help because my strength wasn't enough.

"Eve! What the hell are you doing here?"

Lucas finally appeared in my field of vision.

"Let's go" he took my hand and I let myself be carried away by him. Lucas walked me to the back door, I could see dad walking down the sidewalk to this guy's house. I hope they put him in his place.

"I was looking for you, idiot, Dad would have seen you in there."

"What do you think? That I am not aware of my father's steps? I already knew it. I don't like that you arrived just like that. And what were you doing talking to those guys?"

"Forget it."

Lucas and I finally arrived at the house, I could breathe easy at that moment. I wondered how they were doing in that house. I wish my father had put that arrogant Kessler in his place.

"I'm going to sleep," Lucas tells me, coming up the stairs. I followed him, but went from one to my room. Suddenly the music was no longer heard, apparently my father had managed to end that ridiculous little party.

And still that idiot asking me what I was doing there.

Silly.

I lay down and got ready to sleep. But it was hard for me, my mind was always thinking about what had happened a few minutes ago.

The next morning I woke up half awake. I knew this would happen to me. I got up and went to shower to make me sleepy. When I went out I put on music while I got dressed, this time I chose Mom Jeans, white tennis shoes, a long-sleeved shirt and I combed my blonde hair. When my curls dried they would be present. And it is that my hair was quite curly and fluffy. For a time it was a reason for insecurity but now I'm trying to put those things aside. I took my bag, turned off the music and went downstairs to the kitchen. Lucas was sitting in the dining room with my father.

Breakfast was served.

"The director already knows that you are arriving today" he told us " You simply have to pick up your schedule and that's it. Good luck on your first day."

"What happened last night?" I wanted to know suddenly. The second I regretted asking.

"Nothing, I just told them the party was over and that's it."

Lucas gave me a quick look.

"I want to tell you something." now dad was serious "I don't want them to come near those boys, okay? They do not give me a good feeling and it is better that you two, especially you, Eva, stay away from them. I don't want to repeat it again."

"Why?" I wanted to know.

"Eva, you heard. If dad says it, it's for a reason," Lucas intervened.

I finished my breakfast a little pensive.

"I will go to work. Call me if you need anything. Lucas, take care of your sister." Dad put on his sheriff's hat and left. I put the plate in the sink and went upstairs to brush my teeth. Something had happened last night, I was sorry, otherwise dad wouldn't be like this. I know him and I know he is concerned. I went down again, Lucas was already leaving the house. I followed him because I didn't want to go alone.

"Wait for me" I ran to stand next to him. On the street, a very nice jeep in matte black color was parked. We continue then the idiot Kessler comes out, he is dressed all in black, now in daylight I can see him clearly. The truth is that he is very handsome and nice. He got into his jeep, and just as I was passing by, Kessler looked me square in the eye.

1,2,3,4,5 seconds passed. Five eternal seconds where I felt as if someone were forcing me to stay there, looking at him. It was as if our eyes collided and stayed there. His eyes are black as night, his gaze penetrated me. His gaze made me feel things inside of me that I didn't know I could feel. My heart was beating faster.

What the hell had happened? I blinked several times to try to snap out of my reverie. It was something that I can't explain with words.

Oh.

Minutes later we arrived at the high school. Hmm it was more or less big, it had gardens, big spaces. I didn't even know how I was going to do in this place, I didn't know if I would have friends or not. I felt so lonely here.

"Okay, Eva, I'm going to my classroom. I'll see you at the exit" Lucas winked at me and left me alone among so many students. And now where do I go? To the office. But I don't even know where the office is.

"But look who we have here" Jonny appears in my field of vision. "Eve, right?"

I nodded.

"Yeah. Johnny?"

"Tell me Jon." He smiled at me.

"It's okay, Jon."

"I see how lost you are."

"I'm looking for the office and I really have no idea where it is."

"Come with me." He nodded for me to follow him and I did. I must admit that as soon as I met this boy, eyes fell on me. That made me feel very uncomfortable but I wouldn't let myself be intimidated by all these people who don't know me. We went up some stairs while Jon was telling me about how it is around here. "We're here." He pointed to a door.

"Thank you Jon."

"I do it with pleasure," he smiled sideways. Jon had a nice smile and he was also handsome, not as good as Kessler but he had his charms. And I really don't know why the hell I'm comparing them.

"Okay, I'll see you later." I said goodbye, entering the office. There was a lady at a desk, I think she was the secretary. "Good morning," I greeted, "I'm Eva and..."

"Yes, the bailiff's daughter," he interrupted me.

"Yes how...?"

"Your brother was just here" he handed me a sheet "Here's your schedule, dear, good luck."

"Thanks," I replied, taking the sheet and walking out of there. She didn't even give me time to say anything else. In the hallway I checked the schedule, apparently they taught more classes here than in my old high school.

I went down the steps in search of my classroom because I didn't want to be late, when I looked up I found myself in the distance with Kessler. He saw me. Next to him was a blonde girl talking to him about things while he didn't pay the slightest attention to her.

I raised an eyebrow in the form of a question. I wondered why he stared at me so much and I also wondered why my heart raced every time he did. The girl next to him took his face and kissed him on the lips.
