Chapter Three
Sara stayed behind after class ready for her introduction to Catherine Willows, she was fidgeting.. nervous.. trying to focus on the genetics conversation her teacher was having she nervously waited.
There was a knock at the door and Sara held her breath.. In walked a girl just a bit shorter than Sara, with long blonde hair and the bluest eyes she had ever seen. Forcing herself to breathe and grasping for composure she tore her eyes away from Catherine. Sara's hands were starting to sweat and she was sure her face was flushed, she tipped her head forward so her long brown hair drew around her face like a protective curtain.
Mr Peters made the introductions and swiftly left.
'Hey….' Mumbled Catherine
'Hey….' Replied Sara
'So…. I haven't seen you round school?' Enquired Catherine
'No, I tend to stick to myself' Smiled Sara
The two of them started to talk about their project and what aspect to look at and how to make it unique from the others… All the time Sara was sneaking glances at Catherine, in awe of her. Catherine was so confident and well gorgeous, she seemed nice enough and didn't have a problem working with her which was nice. Part of Sara panicked that Catherine would find out that she was a social outcast and reject her friendship but the logical side told her to cross that bridge if and when it came.
The week had sped by, which was an unusual experience for Sara. She had spent a large amount of time dodging Libby and her plastics, not quite ready to deal with their attacks. Lunches were spent in the library with Catherine focusing on their reports and they were getting on well, though it was all still superficial stuff. The report was to be handed in on the Monday and Sara was worried, Catherine was the closest thing she had to a friend and she was worried that she would lose her. The only reason they'd spent this much time together was because of their report, without that would Sara still see Catherine?
One thing that was becoming apparent was she had the biggest crush on Catherine ever, sure she'd fancied a few girls before but this was a whole new level, when she found something interesting she would see if Catherine did, if there was something amusing happening she would glance at Catherine to see her gorgeous smile. The only problem she had was Catherine was very tactile with her, this made it hard for Sara to focus and well honestly to breathe. She'd always flush red and have to try not to read too much into the situation, but it was hopeless, she had fallen for this gorgeous girl. Sara knew she just had to keep it concealed, last time this got out she had been moved to another state in the middle of nowhere. God knows what her parents would do if it happened again.
