Claire's POV

"I cannot believe we're seniors... High school went by so quickly!" Cassidy squeals as I pull into my senior parking space. I'm probably the worst driver in the whole state of Massachusetts but ever since I got my license I refuse to let anybody drive me anywhere.

"I know, and this year should be such a breeze because all our teachers are the same ones we had last year." I chuckle, high fiving her. I lock the door of my black GMC terrain and we head in through the front doors side by side. As we walk through the halls and smile at our friends, both of us at the same time take notice to the five new guys in the office.

"Who the hell are they?" Cassidy asks, opening up her locker and putting her books inside. I bite my bottom lip while peaking inside at the young looking well dressed guys all chatting and laughing with administration.

"Do you think they're new students?" I ask, admiring the a few of them. The one with the dark hair is totally my type, and the blonde isn't so bad looking either. The other boy has a curly mop of hair on his head and bright green eyes which isn't something you see everyday.

"They look oldish, I wonder if they--"

"Look who it is!" My ex boyfriend Craig's voice echoes through senior hallway. I turn my head around to see him and Cassidy's ex Luke strolling down the hallway with huge grins on their faces. We both broke up with them before the Summer so we could be single and do whatever we wanted with no regrets, probably my best idea yet.

"Long time no see losers!" I smirk, hugging them both tightly. We kept a pretty good friendship through the whole ordeal with makes my life ten times easier.

"Did you hear about what happened with the teachers?" Luke asks and Cassidy and I immediately look at each other.

"What happened?!" We ask simultaneously.

"A whole bunch of them got fired, mostly all the teachers we had Junior year." Luke shares, and both of our jaws drop open.

"What?!" I gasp, shaking my head. The whole reason I can apply to the great colleges that I did was because of the grades I got last year, and I got those grades because my teachers really liked me...

"Yeah, the principal did some evaluating and thought that they were too easy on a bunch of students, particularly the four of us." Craig smirks, and I can't help but laugh a bit.

"We can't help it that we're so likable!" I joke, along with the rest of them. "But wow, that really sucks... We actually have to work this year." I groan, shaking my head in frustration.

I liked all my teachers so much last year and I'm actually super pissed off that they got fired, especially because of me and my friends. I'm interrupted from my thoughts when Craig pins me against the locker and I roll my eyes at his attempt to be sexy.

"Are we gonna start this up again?" He asks, and a small shiver blows through my body.

"Craig," I whine his name with a small laugh, "We are not getting back together." I giggle, but my smile fades when one of the guys from the office is standing behind us. I whisper for Craig to stop and when he pulls away his smirk fades too.

"Can I help you?" Craig asks, and the hallway erupts into laughter. The curly haired guy with the incredibly nice looking green eyes keeps his gaze on me and I look away, taking a step closer to Cassidy.

"No public displays of affection with your girlfriend in these hallways." He announces, and I roll my eyes.

"Sorry new kid, you'll get a girlfriend in no time... Don't be jealous!" I tease him, and a small smile forms at the corner of his pursed lips.

"I'm not a new kid, I'm a new teacher," he smirks as the four other guys from earlier crowd behind him, "we're the replacements and I'm Mr. Styles, your new senior math teacher." He announces, extending his hand to Craig.

"Oh." Craig nervously chuckles, reaching out and shaking his hand. I look back at the other four who are giving me a goofy smile and I can't help but smile back... They're all actually really attractive.

"I'm guessing you're the troublemakers they warned us about?" The dark haired one smiles at me, sticking out his hand. "I'm Mr. Malik, senior art teacher." He explains while an even larger smile plasters on my face. Fuck yes, I took art with this sexy mother fucker?



"And I'm guessing you're not even past the drinking age yet?" I chuckle, responding to his hand shake. His hands are warm and I giggle nervously when I notice the rest of hallway has grown silent and is watching our interaction. Before any of them can correct me on my ridiculous joke, the morning bell rings.

"This should be a fun year." Mr. Malik announces and the five of the disperse into different classrooms down the long hall.

"Holy fuck... They're our new teachers?" Cassidy gasps, and I lean against my locker in complete shock.

"I don't like them." Luke grumbles, and Cassidy and I come back to reality and check our schedules.

"I have math first." I sigh aloud and Craig nudges my shoulder.

"Me too, let's go find out how fast it will take for Mr. Styles to fail you at your worst subject!" He chuckles, pulling me in the direction where the rudest of the five headed.

I can already tell he has a stick up his ass and hopefully I can make him like me or else I'm fucked for this year. Math has been and always will be my worst subject and the only reason I passed last year was because Mrs. Emerson adored me.

"Can't wait." I groan, following Craig to our classroom.
