Last week generated some fantastic prompt responses - I hope you check them all out at the Writing Prompts forum. The one that i want to highlight is to prompt 199 which gave a first line of "Here we go again"

Here's what Andy021278 came up with:

“Here we go again,” Marcus said.
“What do you mean by that?” Peter asked.
“You! You look as though you’ve just been kicked square in the arse by the love bug.”
“So what if I have. I mean look at her; she’s gorgeous.”
“You don’t have to tell me; I’m gay, I’m not blind. I know she’s gorgeous, but so were Marcia, Stephanie, Karla-”
“Just what are you trying to say?”
“I’m saying, that you my friend, is what is colloquially known as a skirt junkie. All that it takes is a cute butt and smile and you’re anyone’s. Well, maybe not anyone’s,” Marcus added as he winked at his friend.
“You know I’m straight, Marcus.”
“And what a damned shame that is.”
Peter had never had a problem with Marcus being gay; it wasn’t even all that uncommon for the two of them to engage in some harmless flirting from time to time since Peter knew Marcus would never take it too far.
“Who is she Marcus? I’ve never seen her around before?”
“New girl, I guess. I certainly don’t recall seeing her before.”

 

The school bell sounded five minutes later and everyone filed in to their respective classrooms for morning registration.
“Good morning class,” said their teacher. “Now before we begin the day, I’d like to introduce a new student. This is Christine Summers.” Turning to the petite fourteen year old brunette who had so easily caught Peter’s attention, their teacher continued. “Christine, would you tell us a little about yourself.”
“I used to live in Caerfyrddin, but my parents and I moved here a few weeks ago as my dad was transferred to his company’s local branch.” Peter instantly fell in love with her soft Welsh accent. He now considered her to be absolutely perfect; lovely butt, lovely smile and lovely accent. As she continued talking, it was clear she was very shy; which as far as Peter was concerned, only added to her allure.

Good sweet beginning, eh? Check out the rest of his story here!
