Chapter 1
Kim POV
I was sitting in English, completely bored out of my mind, when the door flew open. Mrs. Port had been lecturing the class about how to properly use commas. She broke off in the middle of her sentence.
"Oh, Mr. Cane," Mrs. Port said. "you're back. We were wondering when you would be getting back. Here take your seat next to Ms. Conweller."
I blushed and slammed the "notebook" I'd been writing in, closed. It was actually my diary and in my diary I had things written like "Kim Cane, Jared & Kim Cane" and stuff of that sort.
He dropped his books onto the table I was sitting at and sat down only a few inches away from me. I could feel heat radiating off of him but thought nothing of it, it was probably because I was nervous with him sitting so close.
Mrs. Port resumed the lecture.
I turned my head sideways and looked at Jared. The last time I'd seen him his hair had been glossy black and down to his shoulders, but now, it was cropped short.
He was writing something in his notebook that I couldn't see. He pressed down with his pencil and it snapped. Not the lead, but the entire pencil shattered. Fragments of painted yellow wood covered our table.
I looked away, allowing my hair to cover my face. I could feel his gaze burning into the side of my head so I didn't look at him.
"Kim Conweller!" Mrs. Port said.
"Yes ma'am?" I replied, looking up.
"Are you paying attention?" she asked.
"Yes ma'am," I told her. Jared was still glaring at the side of my head and I was trying to ignore him.
"Alright," Mrs. Port returned to the lecture. It was amazing that we were sophomores and she had to explain commas to us.
I pushed my glasses higher up my nose before looking back down at my hands folded in my lap. My hair was a black curtain in front of my face.
I heard a growl and turned to look at Jared.
He was now glaring down at his paper,
"Do you need a pencil?" I squeaked. Then I froze. 'Oh my gosh,' I thought, 'I actually talked to Jared!'
I pulled a pencil out of my bag and rolled it over to him. He grunted a 'thanks'.
I looked down again and smiled.
The bell rang several minutes later and I moved to stand up.
"Hey, wait!" Jared called out behind me. Almost everyone was already out of the room.
I turned to face him... and gasped. His eyes were more beautiful than they had been before he was sick.
He looked up and he looked amazed.
"Umm... here's... um... your pencil," he handed me my pencil. I blushed.
Jared was staring at me. The bell rang again.
I bit my lip, "I better go, I don't want to miss lunch."
I turned to leave.
"Wait," he grabbed my arm, "don't go. How about we go get lunch together, somewhere else?"
I blushed. "You mean like... cut school?"
Jared nodded.
"Okay," I smiled.
We gathered our books up and headed out the school doors.
