All Chapters of Polar Opposites: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

"Have you changed your mind about going to the party tomorrow night, Julie?" Beth asked."I don't know as yet." I said taking a bite of my Nutella sandwich. "Maybe."Beth sighs. "Please say yes. I can't go alone."Bethany Davis and I were currently in the cafeteria having our lunch. I really did not want to go the party, but I did not want to let my best friend down.I look at her and sigh heavily "Okay, I will go.""Thank you, thank you, thank you." She chants and I shake my head at her enthusiasm.Through the corner of my eyes, I saw Liam Black enters the cafeteria and went to buy his lunch. After buying his lunch, he went and sit at the far corner of the cafeteria by himself.Liam was always sitting by himself and he doesn't talk to anyone. I don't know, but the mysterious aura around him makes him a little intriguing. He didn't keep friends and no one took any interest in him. They just avoid him all together. He was good looking though, with his messy black hair and deep blue eye

After the party on Friday, the weekend was uneventful. Beth came over on Saturday worried, wondering why I left the party. I told her what had happened and she was furious. She couldn't believe what Nate wanted to do. I agreed with her. I couldn't believe that was the reason he asked me to the party.It was now Monday and I was getting ready for school. I went downstairs to the smell of bacon and pancakes. My mom was in the kitchen. She smiles when she saw me."Morning honey." She greets."Morning Mom." I said. I went over to the table and sat down. She brought a plate of pancakes and bacon to me. I ate as quickly as possible as I did not want to be late for school.After I finished eating, I went back upstairs to brush my teeth. I came back downstairs and kiss my mom on the cheek."Bye Mom, love you." I said."I love you too, sweetie. Do you want a ride to school?" She asks."That's okay, I will take the bus." I reassure her."Okay, if you insist. Be careful." She said."I will." I s

Two days has passed since my visits to Liam's and he was back to being the cold, emotionless boy at the back of the class. We have worked on our project in those days and we have finished it. It was hard to imagine us swimming together only two days ago. Well, we didn't exactly swim together, because he just stood there.I would talk to him, but he would withdraw and placed those hard to break walls around him. Some of the times he looked really sad, but I never question him about it, figuring he needed his personal space. People would give me weird looks wondering why I was talking to Liam and I would hear people whispering in the hallways, but I didn't care because I really liked Liam and I think he could use a friend. Right now I was in math class with Beth working out problems on the sheet of paper that our teacher gave us. Beth calls my name and I look over to my left at her."Are you going to the school dance next week Friday?" She whispers."I totally forgot about that. But y

It was now Monday after first period and I was heading to my locker. Over the weekend, I had really enjoyed myself with my parents.My dad had took us to the city fair and in the evening, he took us to a nice restaurant to have dinner. I had a great time. Even though he works a lot, he would always find time for his family. On Sunday, we all stayed home and had a family night.As soon as I reached my locker, I put in my books and took out my books for art class. I closed my locker and went upstairs to class. I went into the classroom and noticed that easels were set up with canvases all over the classroom. I became excited. I guess we were painting today. I went to the back of the classroom and sat on a stool in front of a canvas.Two minutes later, I saw Liam walk in. I noticed that all the other canvases were taken, except the one beside mine. He came to the back and sat down. I didn't say anything to him. I didn't want to seem pushy and I also wanted to give him his space. I was ac

On Monday in art class, I was surprised that Liam came and sat beside me. He also started a conversation with me first. I don't know why, but I was glad that he was starting to feel comfortable around me. Even if it was just a little bit.As soon as art class was finished, I packed up my bag quickly and run to catch Liam before he disappeared again."Hey, do you want to eat lunch with me today?" I asked Liam as soon as I was near him."I normally eat outside by myself." He answered."I know that, but eat with us today. It's just my best friend and I. She is great. You will like her."He looks at me, deliberating for quite some time, before he responds. "Okay." I smile widely at his response."Great. Come on then." I said and we walk to the cafeteria. We ordered our lunch and I walk over to my seat where Bethany was already sitting. Liam followed behind me."Beth, Liam is joining us for lunch today." I said to Beth as soon as I reach the table. She looks up at Liam and gives him a warm
