YA Indie Carnival: WIP excerpts

Welcome back to the Carnival and this week is a special treat as all the participants are sharing a paragraph from their current WIP. Click on the link above and it will take you to a list of all the participating carnies. You guys know what I've been working on so as a super special treat I'm giving you the first paragraph and smidge of the second chapter of theOne. If you need a refresher on the first chapter you can find it here. 
I walked into my first class flustered from being late and from the parting comment from Mr. Mysterious. I had my head down, using my hair to shield my face. This was standard operating procedure to keep my eyes hidden. The voice of the teacher who greeted me caused me to jerk my head up, eyes wide with surprise. “Welcome to honors Trig, Eveline, I’ve been expecting you. We’ll let the tardy go this time since it is your first day but please be in your seat before the bell rings in future,“ Gabriel scolded in his most authoritative voice as he handed me my textbook. 

And that's it! Not the longest first paragraph but a fun little teaser. Don't forgot to click on the link below to find out what's new with the other carnies!
