Tessa swallowed. She didn't expect meeting him. She thought that he was gone, gone forever in her life for good. She widened her eyes before feigning innocence. She turned to Tyler and whispered, "Who is he?"
Tyler raised his eyebrows and said, "Tessa, he is Will Herondale. You don't know who he is?"
She lied. "Um. No."
"Well, he is like this really famous football player from England."
"Oh I see."
Chip continued. "So our guest are the Shadowhunter team, four of them came today. They are Will Herondale, Jem Carstairs, Gabriel Lightwood and Gideon Lightwood. Please welcome them with a round of applause."
Tessa had been so focused on Will that she didn't notice the trio. Jem, being one of her best friends during her stay in England, raised his pale eyebrow at the sight of her. When Gabriel spotted her, Tessa shook her head silently and Gabriel instantly closed his trap. She pretended to pay attention to Chiu, but her attention always went back to the four Britain.
...
Will noticed Tessa staring at him, and he played it cool. He had noticed Jem and Gabriel's reaction, but he had just turned a blind eye to them. He stared at Tessa with the corner of his eye. He had noticed Tessa talking to that man. She had smiled at that man, but didn't even bother to acknowledge him. She had smiled slightly at Jem, Gabriel and Gideon, but to him, she just... glanced past him like he was nothing. He spoke up after that random person who was referred as the principal. "So, what we will be doing is that we will be walking around, and looking for talented children who has a shot in football."
A perky Asian spoke up. "Why do you need the English teachers?"
Will half-smiled. "We need them to teach the students football keywords and other things."
Jem continued for him and said, "We will be using 4 teachers, Will will be pairing with," he looked down at his sheet of paper. Will hoped that he was paired with Tessa, "Miss Gray." Will saw Jem hiding a smirk. "Will Miss Gray raise her hand?" Will saw Tessa pursing her lips before raising her hand.
