Drawn to you
stop staring. Stop Staring. God, he's hot. Kate. Katherine Gregory. Katie. Stop staring.
Sigh.
I'm staring at Luke Phillis, star hockey player, and the most popular guy in senior class and the whole school. And the hottest. Well, not exactly. He could be the hottest if you don't count his incredibly hot and annoyingly rude brother, Rex Phillis, who's a total nerd and who's sitting next to me. Luke, who's British, is sitting next to his girlfriend, my best friend, Kitty Schuyler. Which I totally don't get. I mean, of course, Kitty's hot but I've always been the hotter than one. And don't mention meaner. Kitty's like a saint. Nice to everyone. Maybe that's why Luke fell for her and not to me.
Anyway, we're in Science class and Rex Phillis, Luke's brother, is my science partner. Not that I chose him (I might have if he didn't annoy me too much). He chose me. Which I totally don't comprehend. Rex is wearing our school shirt which says 'Brice Ezra High' in gold letter against the black background. God, I've always hated that shirt but he could totally pull it off. Heck, he could wear nothing but leaves and he could still pull it off. Which is saying a lot. Anyway, it's not like I would have a problem seeing him wearing nothing but leaves. Wink. Wink.
"Alright, so we'll construct a light bulb using electromagnetism and you'll be in charge of writing our essay and I'll be the one building it. With your occasional help of course," Rex explained and looked at my dark brown eyes with his gorgeous blue/green eyes. "Hello? Kate? Did you hear what I said?"
"What? Oh. Yeah, of course."
He sort of blushed, ran his hands through his golden brown hair and looked away. I can't blame him. Who wouldn't get self-conscious when you see someone staring at you. Which I'm doing right now. I can't stop! He's just so...
"Kate? What do you think?," Rex asked in his heart melting British accent.
Shoot. I was too busy staring at him that I wasn't paying attention to what he was saying.
"Huh?"
He ran his hands through his long messy hair. Well, not that long, Maybe three inches of hair sticking out on all places. Scruffy. Hot.
"You're not paying attention, are you? I've been blubbering here for who knows how long and you're not even listening."
God. His nerve. Well, okay, I wasn't listening but it's not my fault he's so gorgeous, it's too painful to even look at him.
"Well, maybe you should stop blubbering," I replied, completely annoyed. "If you wanted a partner who would cooperate well with you, you shouldn't have chose me."
He blushed and looked away again. What was up with that?
"Hey," Stacie Prudence, who's wearing this nerdy pink top and orange capri and glasses and who's so obviously in love with Rex, her best friend, came over to us.
Rex looked up and nodded at Stacie.
"So, Rex," Stacie started. "Maybe we could work together since Kate's not doing so well on that."
She looked at me from head to toe and continued, "And what are you wearing anyway? It's like black all the way."
I glared at her. So. At least I dress good. I was wearing a black corset mini dress and black Vans.
"I think she looks good," Rex defended me.
Stacie and I stared at Rex incredulously. Who ever knew he'd stick up for me. Rex blushes then looked down.
"Thanks," I replied, touched.
Rex nodded.
"So, Rex, want to do something tonight? Like the movies or just hang out or something?" Stacie asked hopefully.
God, I admire that girl's confidence. I can't even go right out like she did.
Rex looked at me and said, "Actually, I just asked Kate to come over to my house tonight. For the project."
"Oh," Stacie looked bummed, still staring at Rex.
He barely even glanced at her. Stacie went back to her desk next to her brother, Alan.
"So is that okay? Tonight?" he looked at me.
"Sure"
"Great"
Then the bell rang for home. Luke and Kitty stood up and went over to me and Rex.
"So, I'll pick you up a six," Rex said quickly.
"Okay"
Luke kissed Kitty and left with his brother.
Kitty looked at me, "What was that about?"
"Nothing. Just to work on our project," I replied.
Kitty looked at me as if she thinks I'm lying, "Uhuh."
