CHAPTERS 03

« Nice to meet you Mrs. Fields. « I mumble as I walk away and to my seat in the back next to Sean.

As I was walking to my seat Grace thought it was an amazing time to stick her leg out and try and trip me.

Did I say try ? More like succeeded. I fell flat on my butt and I dropped my textbook the teacher had given me. As it landed it made a loud thump noise.

Everyone started laughing but neither the teacher nor Sean thought it was funny. Sean gave Grace a look and immediately her eyes widened and she said « Sorry L- I mean.. just sorry. « as she sunk back into her seat.

Well that was embarrassing.

I got up and walked the rest of the way to my seat and sat down next to him.

« So what’s your name ? « he said with a smile. He didn’t waste any time-

I smiled back, but didn’t respond. It was hard not to when a guy that looked like that smiled at a girl like me.

Sean has a body and face that looked like a god had shaped it. His muscles seemed huge and showed through his black shirt… which made him look incredibly sexy. He has a jawline and dimples that made me just blush looking at it. I bet he has a girlfriend though, I wouldn’t be surprised if it was Grace. She seems to be well known and popular, so it wouldn’t be a shock.

He saw me checking him out and smirked, « Like what you see, Princess ? «

I blushed so hard I probably looked like a tomato. « N-No. I wasn’t- «

Yes I was.

The smirk didn’t leave his face as he looked back at the teacher.

The rest of the class period went by kinda fast, not including the multiple amounts of times Sean tried to get my attention… I felt bad ignoring him but I felt a pull towards him. It just felt all weird to me.

Once the bell rang I jumped out of my seat and ran out of the door.

My next class was with Makayla so I was thrilled, I’ll ask her about Sean to see what he’s like.

I walk to art but on the way there I bumped into someone, falling for the second time in a row today as the other person did the same.

« Oh my gosh I’m so sorry ! I’m really clumsy I’m sorry… « I make a move to pick up his papers but he shook his head, picking them up himself.

« Oh no it’s okay. Hey… your the new girl right ? Jessica. « he thought for a moment before saying my name, like someone had just told him who I was.

« Yes, I am. Wow word really does go around this school. « I don’t really know what to think of that, is that good or bad ?

« Yeah, it’s a small school so word goes around really fast. Well it was nice seeing you. « He goes to turn around but hears my voice again and stops in his tracks.

« You too. « I say with a smile.

« My names Michael by the way, what class do you have next ? « He holds out his hand and I oblige, shaking his hand.

« I have art class with Mr. Davis. Art class is always my favorite because I love drawing. «

« Oh don’t expect much. I heard he almost never shows up. « He lets out a soft chuckle and shakes his head, I wonder if he has taken the class too ?

« Oh… does the school do nothing about it ? « I say disappointed.

My last year of high school and the teacher is a no show. It sucks because I’ve always enjoyed drawing and working with clay. I always draw wolves and moons, the occasional rose. I don’t know why but they’re fascinating to me.

« Yeah, but they haven’t found a replacement for him yet and I don’t think they’re trying hard to find one either. Good luck though ! « His facial expression made me realize he was being sympathetic, but he wasn’t in the mood to have a conversation.

« Thanks, I should really get going. « Not wanting to be late like my last class.

« Yeah, have fun. « Michael said and walked off. Hopefully I didn’t make the both of us late, like it mattered for me anyway.

Michael has a muscular build too, but not as much as Sean. He has messy blonde hair with chocolate brown eyes, and white shirt with jeans. He almost looked like one of those boys you’d see in swimwear commercials.

I get to my class as soon as the bell rang and looked inside. Everyone was in little groups and the people who’s friends weren’t in this class, were quietly doing whatever keeping to themselves. And like I was told… no teacher.

« Hey Jess ! You’re here. « Makayla waves me over to her table that stood in the middle of the room. I look around some at everyone before walking over to her, sitting down next to her.

« So is it true the teacher never shows ? « I ask curiously, putting my papers down onto the table before looking up at see her reaction. It wasn’t like I didn’t trust Michael, but I wanted to hear an explanation.

« Yeah, who told you ? I wanted it to be a surprise. « she said with a frown. I guess no one picks this class to actually do work.

« This boy named Michael. « I say, remembering his name from not too long ago.

« Ohhh him.. « she says looking down and fiddling with her fingers.

« Ooooh does someone have a crush on Michaelll ? « I say in a girly tone and push her arm playfully.

« N-No.. maybe, yeah. But he turned me down. « she looked up at me.

« Oh I’m sorry M, he’ll see what he’s missing out on soon. « I smiled at her.

« Yeah I guess, anyway can I see your phone ? « she asks, trying to change subject. I don’t press on and answer her.
