October had no intention of speaking to him. Instead of watching his graceful figure like all the other girls in the room, she kept herself engrossed in the book she now held. It was a rather pathetic story of a girl falling in love with a vampire. Same old same old. The story wasn't even appealing to her, but with this intense character beside her, there was no choice but to pretend that he didn't exist. All the attention was on him. Every girl swooned as he past and every guy gritted their teeth as they put on friendly, fake smiles. What a character. Already she didn't like him. But in the near future, although she didn't know it, their fates would be intertwined.

It all started with his "Hello" and the matching perfect smile.

She shouldn't have turned her attention to him. But she did. She shouldn't have, but she did. October's chocolate gaze looked up from the words of the book -- and were immediately captivated. He was handsome. The smile upon his lips only made this more prominent. This altogether irritated her more than anything. It was unlike her to be attracted to a guy at her school, especially the cocky hot-stuff types.

Face impassive but eyes searchy, she tilted her head to the left and examined him. "Hello," she replied. It was one word. It was only one word. And it was the start of everything.
