Chapter 4

I was in a daze when I got to second period. I was still just extremely happy that Michelle was no longer in my class. I hadn’t even realized that someone was sitting in my seat. The boy looked up at me and that’s when I realized. Who was this boy? I noticed that he has really nice hair and eyes. His hair and eye color matched…his hair and eyes were black. That was actually pretty creepy…

“Yes,” he asked me with a cold distant voice. He had his eyebrow raised. When I heard his voice I felt a shiver go up my spine. I also felt like his eyes were piercing right through me. The look he was giving me made me shiver a little bit more.

“I-I’m s-sorry, b-but y-you’re s-sitting in my s-seat,” I responded as politely as I could while stuttering. He just smiled at me and stood up.

“I’m sorry I was sitting in your seat, ma’am,” he said politely. The smile he gave me lightened up his features. I smiled back and sat down in my seat. He decided to sit behind me. No one was sitting there anymore.

I felt a tap on my shoulder a couple of seconds later. I turned around to look at him. “Yes?”

“Do you think you can show me around the school? I am new here and no one else has spoken to me yet?”

“Sure, I would love to show you around. My name is Aubrey, but you can call me Bre,” I responded with a smile.

“Well isn’t that a lovely name. My name is Alexander. It’s nice to meet you,” he responded and held out his hand. I took his hand in mine and we shook hands. His hands were extremely warm and that really felt nice. I could feel my cheeks starting to turn red. He chuckled a little bit and I could feel my heart starting to pound in my chest.

“N-Nice to m-meet you as w-well,” I said. He smiled at me again. My heart was going thump, thump, in my chest.

He handed me his schedule so I could look it over. We were in all of the same classes. I was actually pretty surprised. “We have all the same classes so it’s actually perfect that I’m showing you around.”

“Awesome, at least I will have a friend in all my classes now,” he responded. I gave him a look when he said friends. Did he really want to be friends with me? I looked down at the ground. It would be great to have a new friend, but why would he want to be friends with me? I am still an emotional wreck. I haven’t been in a good mood since I found out about what Jonathon did. I looked back up at him again.

“Y-You want to be my f-friend,” I questioned and then looked down at the ground again.

“Sure, why wouldn’t I be? You seem like a nice girl.”

I just nodded and looked at the notebook that was sitting on my desk. I was surprised that Mr. Marshall hadn’t started class yet. Wait, where was Mr. Marshall? He wasn’t even in the classroom yet. I wondered if he was going to be late today. The assistant principal walked by and saw that we didn’t have a teacher. Right after that I felt my phone go off, but I just ignored the message. I really didn’t want to get in trouble for pulling my phone out in class.

I opened my backpack and pulled out a book. The assistant principal wanted us to do something constructive besides talking. The assistant principal was a really crabby lady. I know it’s because some people don’t follow the rules. I hear people call her all sorts of names, but I don’t do those kinds of things. I find it better to be respectful to others. That’s why a lot of the teachers love me. I am a very quiet person unlike my best friend, Nikki.

I felt another tap on my shoulder. I looked back at Alexander. “What are you reading?”

“I’m just reading a vampire story and no, it’s not Twilight.”

“Which series are you currently reading?”

“The Vladimir Todd series; I’ve actually read it before, but I actually love it,” I responded. After that I went back to reading. I have no idea what Alexander was doing. We didn’t talk for the rest of class. When I heard the bell ring I got myself prepared. Alex waited for me at the door.

“Hey Alexander, do you mind if I call you Alex?”

“No, I don’t mind. That’s what my family whole family calls me anyways.”

I showed Alex to our next class. We didn’t even speak while we were walking. It was a little awkward. We had another substitute for second period. My math teacher had already told us that he was going to be out. He had a convention that he needed to go to. It was only for math teachers. English teachers had the same kind of conventions as well. I checked my phone in the next class. It was a text from Nicole saying that she wasn’t going to be in school today. She was going to be at her grandmother’s house to help take care of her. Her mother wasn’t going to be able to today.

I just sighed because I didn’t know what to do with myself in lunch. I mainly talked to Nicole although I had two other friends that sat with me. My friends, Becky and Jess weren’t as happy go lucky as Nicole. Nicole made lunch fun for us.

I was actually surprised to see that the cow was still in this class. They should have just switched her out of this class as well. She glared at me from her seat. I realized that Alex was sitting next to me yet again. I smiled at him and he smiled back. He eyed the cow in the back of the room that was glaring at me. When she realized that he was looking at her she began to blush. She probably thought he was cute, but honestly who cares what she thinks.

Alex was writing something on a piece of paper and then he handed it to me.

“Why is that girl in the back glaring at you?”

“Well…I punched her in the face and broke her nose.”

After reading that Alex looked over at me in shock. I don’t really understand why he was shocked. He didn’t know me at all.

“I just can’t imagine you punching someone in the face. You seem to be really nice to other people. I really don’t know what to say other than wow.”

“Well something occurred between us yesterday and I really don’t want to think about it right now. Can we please change the subject?”

“Alright, I’ll drop the subject for now, little girlie,” he responded. Did he really just call me “little girlie”? No one has ever called me that before. I decided that I was just going to read so Alex and I didn’t talk for the rest of the period.

As I was reading the series I could see images of Jonathon popping into my mind. Why am I still thinking about the person that hurt me so deeply? I don’t need him. He doesn’t need me…I just want him out of my head. I guess I won’t get my wish. Deep down in my heart I knew that I still had some feelings for him. I really couldn’t figure out why I still loved him despite everything that’s happened. I really don’t know how to think or feel anymore.

Lunch time was approaching quickly. Alex was following me around school, but at lunch time we went separate ways. He told me that he would meet me at the cafeteria door. I offered for him to sit with me and my friends at lunch, but he refused.

While I was in the cafeteria my mind was racing so I remained quiet. Becky and Jess were having their “normal” lunchtime discussion. The topic was about the boys they were dating. I really didn’t want to join in the conversation. Their words went in through one ear and out the other. I was concentrating on my own thoughts. They gave me a concerned expression. The only reason was because I haven’t spoken to them all day. They probably thought that I was mad at them. That was really not the case.

“I heard that a new kid started school today. His name is Alexander Wood. A lot of people have been saying that he is really mysterious. I’ve also heard that he has only talked to one person all day and that he’s been following her around.”

“I know and it seems like he has a crush on her, but he only just met her today. I also have heard that Michelle was jealous. She says that she likes the new guy, but she is already dating Jonathon. She can’t have him,” Becky responded. That made my head perk up a little bit.

“Hey! He doesn’t have a crush on the girl he’s been walking around with! She is just showing him where his classes are,” I responded. Maybe I shouldn’t have opened my mouth. They were giving me a mischievous look. This was not going to go well…
