Chapter 2

Its been a month since the new kids started at school and I've actually been enjoying it, mainly because it's the first time in a long time where I didn't have to worry about Amy and her friend's tripping me in the hallways or throwing things at me and spilling stuff on me. Since Greyson arrived Amy has been spending all her time trying to get Greyson to notice her which was pathetic but, every time she got ignored or shot down and after looking completely disgusted by her. I couldn't help but laugh silently to myself at how desperate she was acting.

As everyone watched Amy, I watched Greyson and the others. It was quite obvious they were different and I wasn't just talking about how unbelievably and unnaturally perfect they were, I was talking about their attitudes and their interaction with other people which most of the time the avoided at all costs. It was strange how no one else noticed it but, they were all so caught up in their appearance nothing else mattered.

I mean sure they are beautiful and Greyson was exquisite with his bright hazel eyes that shined when they hit the light just right and how he would run his hand through his hair it was enough to make any girl swoon. I knew it was wrong to stare but, I couldn't help it, it was almost impossible but, whenever I looked at him butterflies would fill my stomach and everything would melt away until it was only him I saw. I was pretty sure he knew I was staring at him because ever so slightly he glanced out of his prevails and turned his head in my direction catching my eyes and locking in on them. We stared at each other for what seemed like sours before the boy next to him gave him a nudged, breaking his hold on me.

I blinked a few times before looking around the room, thankfully no one saw what just happened but, I realized I spoke way too soon. Amy was standing with her back against the wall glaring at me. I knew I made a huge mistake and that I was going to pay for it. Getting up as fast as I could not caring about who way watching or how much noise I made I had to get out of there. Grabbing my school bag, giving one last glance at Greyson who had a very confused look on his face before I nearly ran out of the cafeteria.

"Crap, crap, crap." I repeated over and over again as I rested my forehead against my locker. What was that back in the cafeteria I asked myself. Trying to think of the best explanation possible but, I was coming up blank. All I could think about was the way his eyes locked on mine and how they made the whole world disappear. Surely that wasn't normal.

When the bell finally rung for class I nearly jumped out of my skin. With my heart beating rapidly in my chest I took a deep breath to calm myself down as I opened my locker scrambling around trying to find my chemistry text book. As I entered the classroom, I took my normal seat which just so happened to be right beside Greyson's sister Allison. For the whole month we sat together not once did we speak to each other but, sometimes i would catch her looking at me curiously.

"Hi." Some said from my left side that made all the hairs on my body stand up, looking over I saw Allison standing there just as she was getting ready to sit down.

"Hey." I said while blinking a few times in surprise.

"Sorry it's taking me so long to introduce myself, I'm Allison." she said while showing her bright pearl white teeth as she smiled. "You have class with my brother, don't you?" she asked curiously.

"Yes, he's in my next class actually, is there something you need me to tell him or whatever?" I asked. Silently hoping she did, it would give me a chance to see if the same thing would happen as it did in the cafeteria would happen again, "And I'm Lydia." I added before she could speak.

"Could you tell him that Callie and I are getting pick up by Liz so he doesn't have to wait for us afterschool." she said just when our teacher walked in the room telling us to be quiet and open our books to page 200. So, I just smiled and nodded my head so I wouldn't get in trouble. "Thank you Lydia." she said before turning to her text book.

We didn't speak again but, that was aright. I wasn't sure I if I could speak, the butterflies in my stomach flew around as each second it got closer to my next class with Greyson. I didn't really know what to expect, would the world just disappear every time I see him? Everything was making me very confused and somehow time slipped away from me and it was time for my next class. Allison waved Good-Bye as she stood and waved to the beautiful blonde girl which I guess was Callie before they both disappeared.

I was the second person to make it to class, and my heart started to beat faster as I realized it was Greyson sitting at his desk writing something on a piece of paper in front of him, completely oblivious to the world and that he wasn't alone anymore. As the butterflies started to move around faster, I stood tall and walked over to his desk.

"Hey Greyson," I said as his head snapped up in my direction, just realizing he wasn't alone "Allison, wanted me to tell you that her and Callie were getting picked up by Liz right now, so you don't have to wait for them." I said a little fast at the end as he stared at me without stopping to blink.

"Ah, thanks for telling me." he said. I nodded once and turned around to walk to the back of the room where my desk was but, stopped as he spoke again, "I feel bad that you know my name but, I don't know yours." he said catching my eyes again.

"It's Lydia." I said just as Amy and her friends entered the room laughing but, stopping when they saw Greyson and I next to each other. I dropped my head and quickly went to my seat before Amy could say anything. Greyson had turned around in his seat to stare at me then looking at a very pissed off Amy and back at me to raise his perfectly shaped eyebrow and I shrugging my shoulders at him infuriating her more. I was really going to get it now.

After class ended I stayed behind a bit and waited for everyone to leave hoping I wasn't going to get ambushed as soon as I left the room. I got up and was nearly giving a heart attack when I saw Greyson standing behind me with his head cocked sideways.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you, what are you doing?" he asked slightly amused.

"Sitting here so I could avoid what would happen as soon as I left the classroom." I said as my heart started to slow down

"Well, nothing is going to happen so get up and lets go." he said pointing to the door with his thumb.

I grabbed all my things and held them close to my chest as I stood up as I walked to the door with Greyson walking silently behind me. As we walked through the door, sure enough Amy and her group were standing just across the hall watching us as Greyson put his hand on my back moving me forward, sending my heart into over drive and making my skin feel warm from his touch. By the time I reached my locker everyone was watching Greyson and I walk beside each other with shock all over their faces.

"I'll walk you all the way out to your car just so no one bothers you, sound good?" he asked.

"Sure, thank you." I said dropping everything off and closing locker before we left.

"How do you do that?" I asked catching him off guard.

"How do I do what?" he asked very confused.

"It's like you are completely in your own world, you don't realize that everyone is staring at you." I told him.

He looked around at everyone a little shocked that everyone was staring at us but, he shrugged it off at stared at me instead which made me blush as he once again looked amused. When I finally looked around we were a foot away from my car. I looked around and found his car parked not that far from mine, Allison's boyfriend was leaning against as he watch our moves very closely.

"Thanks for walking me to my car, you should probably go let him in the car." I said pointing behind him while he followed to where I was pointing too.

"Not a problem, I'll see you tomorrow." he said studying me before leaving.

I quickly got into my car and left the school. By the time I got home I was so dazed that I walked by my mom and brother without saying anything. When I finally got to my room I heard the door open and slam shut as my older sister announced she was home. Sitting on the edge of my bed I could still feel where his hand touched me.
