CHAPTER 3

Jealous as hell I went to my next classes 3rd hour and 4th hour were the same as my last two classes, I felt like the world was against me; every where I went it felt like stares and glares galore.

I was on my way to lunch when I heard a very smooth voice from behind me…

"Hello." Said the dude from breakfast

"Um hi." I said uncomfortable. He didn't say anything so I kept walking

He ran up to me. "In case you didn't know that was me who threw that paper ball at breakfast and I'm terribly sorry." (So that's what it was!)

"Its okay, I'll survive."

He looked down "You see I meant to throw it at my sister, Deana- Jane, even though I don't know why she keeps that name and hates it when she had the opportunity to change it," - he looked back up at me-"Sorry back on topic. I but then she dodged it and it accidentally hit you so I'm sorry. How many times have I said that?"

"Like about three times but it's cool." I said smiling

"Cool, want to sit together at lunch, I mean you don't have to but if you want to I mean I know we just met and its totally okay if you don't want-"

I cut his blabbering off, "That's cool."

He flipped his dark brown hair out of his eyes "Cool."

"Okay."

"Okay" I said.

"One more thing, what's your name?"

"Zoey, Zoey Redbird."

"Luke, Luke Clover."

"OMG DO YOU LIKE STAR WARS? IS THAT WHY YOU CHANGED YOU NAME TO LUKE, BECAUSE I-"

"No I was born with that name but it comes in handy at a convention." he said shyly stuffing his hands in his pockets.

"Awesome because I love star wars!"

"Really?" he said shocked.

"Yeah, why do you seem so shocked?" I said raising an eyebrow.

"Um you don't look like a girl that enjoys star wars and…"

"Are you saying girls who aren't pretty likes star wars?" I said playfully.

"No! Of course not! You just don't seem like the geeky type and…"

"So are you saying I have to be geeky to enjoy star wars?" I was enjoying this way too much.

"Yes! No! I-I don't know!" he said like he was about to have a panic attack.

"I'm just messing with you." I said playfully

"Hey! Not funny! Do you know how hard it is to impress a girl who from experience you know has a one in a million chance of liking versus hating star wars?!" he said with mock anger although I can see the smirk on his face.

"Sure, sure Mr. Dramatic."

"So impressing a pretty girl is dramatic now, huh?"

I barely caught what he said as I caught from the corner of my eye Erik glaring at Luke looking almost as if he wanted to rip the heart out of Luke.

I don't know if this is weird or crazy but I liked it.

"Yeah pretty dramatic…" I said of in a daze.

The bell rung and we walked to lunch together talking to each other and it didn't feel like we were just meeting each other, more like we haven't seen each other in a long time not in a boyfriend/girlfriend way but just as friends.

When we got to the lunch room we just got a bunch of random food on a tray to save the lunch staff a tray.

As we were walking to a table I heard a bunch of girls gossip.

"Ugh there's Zoey with yet ANOTHER hot guy!"

"I don't even know why you're surprised she always gets the sexy guys: Erik, Loren, Now Luke!"

"I saw this coming the minute he walked in with his sister."

"If one more sexy walk-on-the-wild-side boy like him gets taken by Zoey I swear to goddess…"

"WHY?! Why does Zoey get all the hot guys Nyx? WHY?!?!"

I wanted to yell at them "HE'S AVAILIBLE, TAKE HIM, AND LEAVE ME ALONE!!" but then again half of the cafeteria already questions my sanity I don't want to take anymore chances.

"There's a seat right around the goddess's table, at my old school I always sat near her table, it felt like she was actually there and it felt nice to feel her presence you know?"

"Exactly!"

"Zoey Redbird, I think this is a great beginning to a marvelous friendship." He said as we sat down.

"I think so too Lucky Lukey." I said giggling at the lame nickname.

"Oh so it's like that? ok I'll give you an embarrassing nickname as well hmm…I got it Extreme Zo-Eeee!!!" he said emphasizing and stretching out the "E".

"Touché." I said laughing my arse off. "You don't seem like the funny type Luke."

"And you don't seem like the geeky star wars type but…"

"I said it once and I'll say it again, Touché."

I was so in with my conversation I didn't know Erik was behind me.
