The Day I Fell In Love
Claire's Pov
The first day I fell in love with Shane Collins was the day Danny Gonzalez came to school and started hanging out with Shane. He was the new student and all the girls were head over heels for him because he was so sexy that he looked like a god they would say I didn't think so I thought he looked exactly like all the players in my school. I wasn't going to fall for his shit of acting like an innocent guy like Shane the number one player of the school tired to do on my first day. Then the teacher Mr. Anderson said to the new boy after introducing him to the class that he was to sit with Miss. Danvers and Mr. Collins. I was thinking great just great now I have to deal with him sitting with me and annoying me just like I had to deal with Shane Collins he was still trying to get me to go out with him and he was sitting on the other side of me and was bugging me and like usual all the girls were glaring at me because I got to sit with the two hottest guys in school but I was pretty sure Shane was still the number one hottest guy in school because most of the girls were still looking at him then looked at Danny and then went back to look at Shane and their eyes stayed on him. Then I looked up at Shane and said to him with an evil smile. "Looks like you have competition." He looked at me confused for a second then he smiled back just as evilly and said… "Looks like I'll become friends with him since you don't like him then you have one more guy bugging you." I groaned and then started hitting my head on my books and Shane started laughing at me as Danny was walking over to our desks. Then he asked Shane what I was doing when he got close and Shane just replied she's just so excited that she gets to sit next to you. Then I looked up at Shane and glared at him and said "Shut up I can speak for myself and that was not why I was banging my head on my books and you know it Shane!" I practically yelled. Good thing the teacher was oblivious to everything that was happening I thought. Then Shane said "I know but that would all stop if you would just change your mind about me and be like all the other girls in this school." I looked back at him and then said "Shane I will never change my mind about you I can handle you bugging me but not talking for me and lying why can't you just understand I don't like you and never will." I said to him. He looked at me surprised but then he got control over himself and said" Well that was the most you have ever said to me in the past two years." Then once he said that I got so mad at him that I couldn't handle it and walked out of the classroom and no one tried to stop me not even the teacher he wasn't paying attention.

I was sitting in class bugging Claire like usual it's just so fun she gets so worked up over little things. Today she was trying to ignore me but it wasn't working today I was on a roll. I looked up when I heard the teacher and someone else enter the room and I saw it was a new student and I was hearing the girl's whispers all around the classroom guess I'll have to become friends with him so I won't have to deal with any competition. Once I was done with that planning on staying the hottest guy at school I looked back to Claire she had a horrified look on her face when she saw the guy. I bet she was thinking it was going to be another Shane and that would be awesome if I could convince him. I smiled and looked at Claire and was about to say something to her when she turned to me and smiled evilly and said "Looks like you have competition." I pretended to look confused for a moment and act like I didn't notice the guy and then I got control of myself and understood what she was talking about. I only did it so she would think I wasn't paying attention like usual. I think she bought it because she still had that smile on her face it was starting to annoy me. Then I came up with a good comment I knew would wipe that smile right off her pretty little face. OH MY GOD did I just think she had a pretty face what am I thinking she's a nerd I shouldn't be thinking that way about a nerd. Then I said "Looks like I'll have to become friends with him since you don't like him and then you will have one more guy bugging you." She groaned then started hitting her head on her books and I just laughed. As the guy was walking over to where we sat and was putting his crap down asked why she was banging her head on her books and I said "She's just so excited that she gets to sit next to you." She looked up from hitting her head on her books and glared at me just like I knew she would then replied heatedly back to me " SHUT UP I can speak for myself and that is not why I was banging my head on my books and you know it Shane!" Well she practically yelled it but the teacher didn't notice he was oblivious to what was going on back here. Then I said back to her "I know but that would all stop if you would just change your mind about me and be like all the other girls in this school." She looked back at me and then said "Shane I will never change my mind about you I can handle you bugging me but not talking for me and lying why can't you understand that I don't like you and never will." I was surprised at what came out of her mouth because that is the most she said to me in the past two years and then I got control over myself and said exactly what I was thinking because I knew that would piss her off. "Well that was the most you have ever said to me in the past two years."Once I said that she got so pissed off that she walked out of the classroom and nobody tried to stop her not even the teacher he still wasn't paying attention and then the guy next to me spoke." Well that went well." Yup perfectly I thought then I smiled at him and said "Yeah that's normal for us for the past two years." Then he said "Wow she really hates you with a passion so I'm guessing your name is Shane mine is Danny."
"Yup that's my name and hi Danny it's nice to meet you and the one who stormed off before, saying hi is Claire she doesn't have any friends and I like to pick on her because she won't go out with me and until she dose it's going to stay that way."
He laughed and said "Hi it's nice to meet you to Shane and that has never happened to me before in my school I was the number one player all the girls loved me."
I laughed and said "I'm the number one player at this school and well it's your lucky day every girl will fall for you except Claire, man I've been trying for two damn years nothing has worked."
"Well if she doesn't fall for me I'll just have to help you and hopefully she will cave."
"Awesome that would be great and I just made a new friend what's your schedule I can tell you what classes you will have with Claire and me."
He hands me his schedule I look at it surprised but I keep the expression off my face and say "You have all the same classes as me and Claire do."
"Cool that's great I can make my move in our next class which is?"
"English this is going to be so fun bugging Claire."
We talked the whole class about how we were going to bug Claire if she didn't cave when Danny asks her out in English. Then it surprised me when the bell rung it also surprised Danny to. We both almost fell out of our chairs because we weren't expecting it. Good thing nobody saw what happened or people would be having fun with that all day. Once we both got out of chairs we were surrounded by girls and we started flirting with them but then I reminded Danny that we had somewhere to be. We left the girls and headed for English. We saw Claire On the way and I told Danny to start now I'll stay behind or she might know something's up. He said okay and jogged up to Claire and started putting the moves on her but by how she was standing and walking I could tell him right now it wasn't working. I only knew it wasn't working because he looked like another player and I said to her in history that we would become friends. Score one for me I am not letting him win I will get Claire to go out with me no matter what and with him thinking I'm on his side and will back him up will help me and I will still be number one hottest and player in the school. Then one of my real friend's caught up to me and said looks like the new kid is trying to beat you if he gets Claire you will be number two you know. I told him I knew and I was befriending him and all that crap and he smiled and said nice. Then I said to him I will get Claire to go out with me before he dose he has no chance in hell she is mine. He laughed and I said what he said let me repeat what you said this is Shane "He has no chance in hell she is mine." Then I said oh shit I did not just say that but you did. I think you really like her Shane. You just don't want to admit it because you don't want to be lower than number one. But you know Shane every girl is still going to want you and all you have to do is make Claire hot and you can date her without your "number one hottest guy in this school status" going down just your player status will. I told him I could handle not having a player status anymore. Then I set off on part one of my mission to get Claire to go out with me Part 2 of the mission was to make her hot so I could keep her mine without losing as Derek put it "my number one hottest guy in this school" status going down."

When the bell rung I walked out of the bathroom and started to head for English. When I was halfway there I saw out of the corner of my eye Shane and Danny talking they obviously didn't know I saw them. I turned away from them. I guess Shane and Danny were friends but knowing Shane he's probably just pretending to keep his status up. Then all of a sudden Danny was by my side flirting with me. Let me tell you he was horrible at it. I bet all the girls at his old school knew this and only fell for him because of his good looks the same would go for the girl's at this school. I suddenly had a I thought that I thought I'd never think but what it was totally the opposite of what I'm usually thinking but here the thought is: I wish Shane were by my side flirting and bugging me right know instead of this guy Shane's way better at it. Then I sighed out loud and Danny asks me what was wrong and I said "Danny I will never go out with you." Then he stopped walking surprised by what I said and then I called behind me loud enough for all the girl's and Shane to hear me. "You are really terrible at flirting with girl's maybe Shane will give you some lessons he's way better at it. Then I walk all the way to English and sat down in my chair silently laughing at what his face looked like when I said that in front of everyone and so loudly.

Derek and I parted ways when he had to go to his Biology class. I was walking to English while watching Danny and Claire I could tell Danny was flirting with Claire. Then I saw Claire give a big sigh and I knew she was telling him she wouldn't go out with him. But what surprised me is that Danny just stood there standing like an idiot. At least I didn't stop trying the first time she turned me down I kept on walking with her and bugging her but not Danny he just gave up. Then what surprised me and was kind of funny was what Claire said after she started walking away to English class loud enough for almost every guy and girl in the school including me to hear. "You are really terrible at flirting with girl's maybe Shane will give you some lessons he's way better at it." Then she walked off I could tell she thought it was funny to. The hall was totally silent until I started at a joke to keep everyone moving along and to embarrass Danny even more I said "Hey Danny you just got told off by a nerd." Everyone started laughing. Then I ran up to Danny and said that was really bad he glared at me and I said hey would you rather of it been silent and everyone staring at you? Then he sighed and said no and he forgave me. What a loser I thought. Then I said we better get to English. I went to the back and sat with Claire, Danny sat up front I was really happy about that. He better stay away from my girl. Then I said to Claire to bug her "So you really think I'm awesome at flirting?" I really hoped she would cave right now but of course she didn't.
"Yes Shane I think you're better at it than Danny is but no one else."
"Claire come on I'm begging you just one date please."
"No Shane."
"Claire please."I begged her to go out with me all through English class she never once caved I gave up after English and just settled for bugging her.

After awhile the English class started to fill up then I saw Shane and Danny come in. Danny stayed up in the front of the classroom and stayed there but I wasn't that lucky because Shane came to sit by me. When Shane looked up and saw Danny sitting up front and not sitting back here with him. He got this happy smile on his face it was weird but I didn't let it show because Shane would catch on. Then Shane turned to me and asked "So you really think I'm awesome at flirting?" He asked.
I replied "Yes, Shane I think you're better at it than Danny is but no one else." That didn't seem to bother him but what he said next surprised me but I didn't let it show.
"Claire come on I'm begging you just one date please."
"No, Shane." I replied he looked like he had been hoping I would say yes but when I didn't his face fell but then it lit back up and he bugged me for the rest of the day. Until we got to Health class. New project I wasn't worried about that until he said we had to get married to someone in class. Everyone started looking around for a partner but everyone hated me in this school I was wondering who I was going to get paired up with and I was really worried about that. Especially when he said he picked our partners. Then I heard Shane's name being called and he was looking at his selection there were four girl's left one of them being me and there were five guy's left whichever girl got a second one was going to be happy. But the name that was being called we all weren't expecting not even Shane.

When we got to Health class I got the most terrible news ever: New Project. Great I hate projects they are the worst. But then I heard what the project was about we got to get married to someone in the class and I was liking that idea of course I would pick Claire. It would be great if we got to live together for two months and she might actually cave. But then the teacher said he picked our partners and everyone in the class groaned. Great just my luck I might not get Claire. Or even worse news Danny might get Claire. This would piss me off if the teacher let him have her. She was mine I was guaranteed to get her for this project. I would complain to the teacher if I had to, just to get her. Then finally I heard my name being called so far no one had gotten Claire which was a good sign. But one of the guys that were left was Danny. I really wanted to get Claire and then the teacher said… Claire Danvers is your partner I was so happy about that. Until everyone was paired up with a girl except Danny. The teacher said one of the groups would get him and the girl would have to take turns sleeping in their rooms. I was crossing my fingers that we didn't get him. Then the teacher said Mr. Gonzalez you will be in… Mr. Collins and Miss. Danvers group. I was so mad but I controlled it I had to keep him in the group or all of us would fail the teacher said. Then the teacher also said that are parents or guardians agreed to this project. Some of your parents told me what house they wanted you to live in. Brooke Britt you will live at Liam Orleans's house. Claire Danvers you will be living in Shane Collins house and since she is living there you will have to live there to Mr. Gonzalez. Good thing we have a guest room so he won't be sleeping in my room. Claire was also going to be sleeping in my room tonight not his. I had plans for me and Claire and it involved making out in privacy. Then the teacher said we could discuss any concerns we have with our partner or partners because the project started today after the last bell rung. We would go home and pack if we needed to. Then Danny came over to me and Claire and asked me where he was supposed to sleep I told him we had a guest room and he sighed. I laughed and he smiled then I asked Claire where she wanted to sleep and she said in the guestroom with Danny I got so mad but I controlled it. Then I gave Danny the look that in guy language said go for it. He nodded to girls it looked like we were telling them not to do anything bad to the girl like abuse her.
