Chapter 1
*quiet whispers throughout the hallway*
"Omg, why is everyone still acting like it's the first day he came back?" Lacey rolled her eyes at the kids crowding the hall.
"Idk Lace. Im just glad that his unfortunate arrival has brought us back together." Jo grinned at ex- but now current best friend
Lacey playfully punched her arm
" Why do you think his coming back is so…. Unfortunate?"
Lacey still hadn't told Jo that she spent that night at Danny's house.
"Earth to Lacey! Did you forget the trauma he inflicted on us? The bullying? The ongoing and still going nightmares?!" She breathed dramatically.
"Alright alright drama queen, I get you. But still…. I think we should give him another chance, I mean… He doesn't seem to be much of a threat anymore…" She gave a sheepish grin.
"No."
"Fine fine, you win !" Lacey laughed at Jo.
"And whyyyyy does it seem like you want to give that psycho a chance? Hmm?" Jo eyed Lacey suspiciously.
"Oh calm, down Nancy Drew. Im just pulling your leg! Oh and by the way, calling him a psycho is just not nice." Lacey teased Jo.
Jo laughed off Lacey's remark but couldn't shake the feeling that her BFF was lying to her.
"ha. whatever Lace, lets just get to class."
Jo hooked her arm with Lacey's and the two girls walked to their next class. Sociology.
*Start of class bell rings and all the students are rushing to there seats*
*Jo and Lacey sit next to each other*
"Good morning class.." A tired Ms. K stood from her desk.
"With all of the news that we've had, what with Danny coming back, I think it is in your best interest to just relax and drop the subject."
*The door opens and everyone begins to whisper*
"Sorry I'm late. I didn't know my arrival would cause such an uproar." Danny chuckled and ran a nervous hand through his shoulder length thick brown hair.
"Do not tell me he's in this class. What the hell!?" Jo harshly whispered to Lacey.
"Yeah..." Lacey replied not really listening to Jo. Her eyes trained on Danny.
"STUDENTS PLEASE, QUIET DOWN... Ehem. Yes, welcome to Sociology 101. Take a seat where ever empty." Se gestured towards the room.
"Oh uh, yeah, okay." Danny awkwardly walked towards a seat right behind Lacey.
Lacey could smell his rich cologne.
"Hey Lace" Danny whispered softly into her ear.
Lacey shivered
"Hey" She whispered back with a small smile and a sideways glance at Jo. She couldn't risk being caught talking to him.
"Ms. K?" Tony, a buff football player raised his hand.
"Yes, Tony? What do you need?"
"Uhm, I have a question. Why are psychos allowed to be in the same class as us normal kids?" He snickered and sneered at Danny.
Danny chuckled and leaned back in his chair, folding his arms behind his head, waiting for Ms. K to answer.
"Same reason brain-dead students are." She winked at Tony.
*The entire class erupted in laughter*
"Whatever Ms. K. I don't think it's right to let some crazy murderer come to our school." He scoffed.
"I don't get why you would be so rude to a so called 'murderer'. Shouldn't you maybe be nice to him?" Now she winked at Danny.
He grinned at her.
"Whatever. This place is lame and he's a freak." Tony rolled his eyes.
"Now that Tony's little temper tantrum has subsided, let us all turn to chapter 9 in the text book and begin reading."
Danny looked around slowly and raised his hand.
"Ms. K... I don't have a textbook.."
"Oh yes I'm sorry, they were distributed earlier. Hmmm.. I don't think we have any left though. I'd have to check after class..."
She tapped her chin pensively.
"Lacey, will you be ever so kind as to scoot your chair next to Danny's and share your book?"
Lacey's mouth opened and she seemed stunned. She turned around to look at Danny who was quirking a brow at her.
"Uh-uhm y-yeah.. Sure." She stuttered
With shaky hands she tried to push her chair next to Danny's but kept stumbling.
"Here, let me get that for you." Danny whispered to her
Trying to take the desk from her, their hands brushed and they froze. Both staring into each others eyes for what felt like hours.
"EHEM. Are you just going to stand there, or are you gunna move the desks? I need to continue the lesson." Ms. K inquired curiously.
Lacey and Danny both jumped and finally settled back into their new sitting arrangement.
"Uh yeah. Sorry." Danny mumbled.
Through out the entire lesson Lacey tried not to look into Danny's chocolaty brown eyes that seemed to hold a million stories. All the why trying to ignore Jo's strange looks at her.
"So Lace" Danny whispered to her, reaching for her hand.
"How have you been?" He said caressing her small hand.
Lacey was stunned by the intimate gesture and felt her voice disappear. All she could do was stare at him with her mouth open.
He chuckled softly
"I-I-I've been o-okay...I uhm guess.." She responded in a cracked voice.
It didn't even sound like her. She struggled to form sentences and didn't understand why she was acting so flustered.
"I've been meaning to talk to you ever since that night you came over." He gave her a lopsided grin.
She stared at him wide-eyed and looked to make sure Jo didn't here him.
He gave another chuckle at her expression.
"U-uhm a-about what, exactly?" She tried to clear her throat.
*The end of class bell rang*
"Lets talk after school. I'll text ya." Danny gave her a warm smile and kiss on her hand.
"Later" He winked and left the class.
Lacey just sat there. Completely stunned
"Helloooooo, Lacey!" Jo shoved her shoulder softly
"Oh! Hey, sorry. Zoned out I guess." She laughed nervously at her friend
"Yeah... Well lets go get lunch. We took your car today remember?" She kept staring at Lacey
"Class ended already? Wow that was uh fast.. Yeah lets go." She tried to brush off the butterflies forming in her tummy.
Ignoring Jo's weird looks she laced her arm with Jo's and walked out of class to her car. All the while staring at the spot where he had kissed her hand.
She could still feel the tingling sensation...
After school.
