Chapter 2 - BOY-MAN

Tuesday

I arrive at school as the bell goes. I push my way through the thin corridors over run by people, some of the younger kids try to run through but soon get shouted at by a member of staff. I was well used to this and it didn't really present any kind of problem. As the crowd thins I reach my classroom, first lesson and I have Maths. Oh, the joy. I walk into the noisy classroom only to face Alexis Jones standing right infront of me. If you put us into an order of coolness she is definatly at the top. I sigh to myself as I look at her, I look her outfit, I suddenly have a lower opinion about myself. She was wearing a dress, she looked flashy yet casual all at once, it was no doubt some fancy designer label, short enough to show off her long tanned legs yet long enough to stop her looking like a slut.

"What you looking at?" she's glaring at me, I mumble nothing and retreat to my seat at the back. I regret not saying something to the bitch but what could I do? She makes me feel so pathetic compared to her. I sit on our group table and start working; But with my best friends there I start to feel better.

About 40 minutes later the teacher walks in with some strangers, I can't see who exactly but it's two boys, or should I say men or boy-men, I think I'll just stick with guy. The tallest guy turns around and faces the class and I gasp. His face looks as if its been carved by an angel, his dark nearly black hair is cut short and spiked up. His leather jacket made him look cool yet dangerous, he wore a plain black tee underneath. I could feel my heart beating faster he's exactly what I fantasize about. He stares straight at me and my heart stops altogether but the look he has on his face make me feel uncomfortable, It's more like a glare than a stare.

The second guy was only slightly shorter than the other one and he had floopy black hair covering one eye and he was wearing black skinny jeans and a band tee. I look out of the corner of my eye at Sakura and I can barely recognise her face. It has a look on it I had never seen before.

"Class, this is Jai Cole and Ash Cole. They're new and I'm sure you'll make him feel right at home, now Jai why don't you go take the seat at the back next to Kassi and Ash you go next to Sakura.''

As Jai walks towards me my body turns to jelly. He sits down, he's so close i can smell him. I can't concentrate and I keep sneaking looks at him. I can feel Chelsea looking at me knowing what I'm thinking.

"Hey", he says through clenched teeth.

"Errrrr....Boy-man." i splutter.

"Erm. Girl-Woman", he looks at me strangely then shakes his head then mutters something about idiotic race.

"Sorry I meant Hi, I'm ...."

He had already turned away. I blushed in embarrassment. Sneeking a look at Sakura I can see the guy Ash chatting away to her and her replying with equal enthusiasm.

These two new boy-men things were creeping me out. Something just wasn't right about them; especially Jai...

Then the bell rang and as we filed out of the classrooms I lost him in the rapidly swelling crowd. I sighed and waited for my friends.
