going to sit at the desk next to mine, he took the seat behind me instead.
    “Hey,” he said as I turned around.
    “Hey,” I answered back, trying not to blush.
    Some of the other girls in the classroom started checking him out , and soon were staring with glazed expressions, as if he was some kind of celebrity. I couldn’t blame them, however. Not only was he cute, but his eyes were beautiful, magnetic, and more than a little… unnerving.
    When the bell rang, the teacher, Mr. Henry, passed out the school’s handbook and we spent a half hour going over each boring rule. No fighting, no swearing, no running, no guns, no tank tops, no pets, no gum, and last , but not least, no fun.  My head was spinning by the time class was over and I was almost afraid to breathe, in case that was also against school policy.
    “Bring a book to read tomorrow morning if you don’t have homework,” called Mr. Henry as we all shuffled out of the classroom.
    I stepped into the hallway and started walking towards first period, which was my math class. I passed my sister along the way and she smiled at me.
    “Is that your sister?”
    I turned to find Tyler walking next to me again and felt more butterflies tickling my stomach. “Uh, yes.”
    “You must be twins?”
    I nodded. “Yeah, but we don’t look anything alike.”
    He smiled. “That’s okay, being different is much more interesting.”
    I stared at him, wondering if he was from another planet.
    “I don’t know about that. Sometimes I’d rather be more like her,” I said. “She’s got it made and nobody gives her any crap.”
    He smiled. “She probably doesn’t give anyone a chance to.”
    My eyes narrowed . “Well, I certainly don’t let anyone give me crap, if that’s what you’re getting at.”
    “I never said you did . I was merely suggesting that confidence goes a long way.”
    He had me there. Every time I saw myself next to my sister, my confidence went out the door.
    “So, um, where are you going?” I asked, nearing my classroom.
    “Math ,” he answered. “We’re in the same class. I hope you don’t mind if I walk with you?”
    How did he know what class I had next ?
    I blushed . “No, of course you can walk with me.”
    “K endra has an admirer,” snorted Mark behind us.
    Tyler turned to him and smiled . “What’s wrong, jealous because you don’t have any admirers?”
    Admirers ?
    My jaw dropped. Not only had he hinted that he was my admirer, but he’d also stood up to Mark, who was on the wrestling team and had muscles on his muscles.
    Mark dropped his books on the ground, and then shoved Tyler, hard. “Why would I be jealous of a cow and her hoser boy-toy?”
    Tyler removed his sunglasses and stared at him while several students gathered around anxiously to see what would happen next.
    “Apologize for being an idiot,” said Tyler evenly.
    There were snickers and giggles from the crowd. Everyone knew Mark would go gangbusters on the new kid. What came next, however, surprised us all. The expression on Mark’s face went from smug to friendly, almost to the point of being nerdy. “I’m sorry for being an idiot,” he answered pleasantly.
    “You’ll never bother Kendra again,” said Tyler.
    “I will never bother Kendra again,” answered Mark, still smiling at me like a guy who’d just met the girl of his dreams.
    “Leave,” said Tyler.
    The next thing I knew, Mark turned around and began walking in the opposite direction.

    Stunned silence surrounded us as we all watched Mark walk away without hesitation.
    This definitely had to be a dream, I thought. No way would this happen in real life.
    “Disbu rse,” mumbled Tyler. Then everyone suddenly came to life and scattered.
    I watched in awe as Tyler put his sunglasses back on. “Uh, how did you do that?”
    He smiled. “Let’s just say, when I talk, people listen.”
    “ Are you some kind of vampire or something?” I blurted out, the
