Lock and Key

Pranks and Theater

We didn't get very far, and before I knew it, I was being tackled by someone else with strong arms. I panicked for a second before I saw that it was just Logan.

"LILAH?! I DIDN'T KNOW YOU WENT HERE!" I put my hand over his mouth and tried to ignore the stares we were getting.

"Hey Logan. I actually just got here today." I smiled as he let go of me.

"No way! Does Kayla know?" He asked, his eyes wide with excitement.

"Yeah, do you know where sh-"

"LILAH!" I got attacked with yet another hug.

"Found her!" Logan cracked.

"Oh my gosh, I can't believe I am actually hugging you right now." Kayla said as she squeezed me even harder.

I hugged her back, tightly. She let go and looked at me, a big smile on her face.

"Wow, you are even more beautiful in person!" She reached out and touched my hair, her hazel eyes filled with joy.

"Thank you." I blushed, and she let go of me. "It is really nice to finally meet you, Kayla."

"The rest of the year is going to be amazing!! Lilah, let me see your schedule." She looked at my hands and opened her mouth to ask where it was, but was interrupted by someone clearing their throat.

"I'm feeling a little left out." Finn joked. I heard Kayla giggle behind me, and then I heard a smack and shortly after, an "Ow!"

Oh, Logan.

"Can I have my schedule back?" I asked, annoyance in my tone, but a smile not leaving my face. He nodded and handed it back.

"Hey, did you ever fix your car?" He smirked.

"It's in the shop. Thank you for the money by the way. My dad would've killed me if I made him pay. That was very clever of you." I told him.

"Of course. It was the least that I could do."

My schedule was stolen from my hands again, and I turned my attention to Kayla.

"Don't we have to get to class?" I asked, and they all nodded.

Kayla whined when she realized her and Logan's first class was all the way across the school from mine. Kayla and Logan went off to class while I found my locker. Once I found it, I turned towards Finn.

"You're gonna be late if you wait for me." I started taking my supplies out of my bag.

"You're gonna be late too." He accused, his face blank.

"You're right, but I have an excuse. I'm new." I grabbed my binder and fully turned towards him.

"I have an excuse too. I just don't care." He winked and I rolled my eyes.

The halls were mainly empty by the time we get to the two doors, one leading to biology, and the other leading to English.

"This is our stop." He stopped me when I went to open the door. "No, no. Let me, milady."

"Don't ever call me that again." I cringed, and he nodded, cringing as well.

"Yeah, I'm not planning on it." He opened the door and gestured for me to go inside.

All the students stared at me. It probably has something to do with the fact that I got escorted into the classroom by apparently the most popular guy in school.

Or maybe just because I'm new.

And late.

"Delilah, is it?" The middle aged teacher asked me, with a smile on her face. "Finley. You can go now."
