Chapter Four- Surprise Invite
Much to my surprise, Zachary, stayed by my side has much has he could this afternoon. And what was even more surprising was that I enjoyed it. He's presents somehow makes me feel safe. Even with knowing that deep down he couldn't save me if the Nagaverse attacked. I mean he's just human after all, but yet, I believe in human could take on the nagaverse it would be him. Then All of that fade when I see them...
I was prepared to walk home after I saw Zach and another girl, Nanni talking, she was a friend of Deanna's and one of the others that like to make my life hard. Just then I realized that surely this thing with Zach was some prank or something that Deanna set up. Zachary set by me in the last four classes and spent the last 4 hours by my side. Not that I really minded, but I am not stupid and I don't believe he is actually caring about me. He is way to good looking and smart for that.
I walked up to him, just to get my books and for the first time I really wasn't scared of talking to a guy (other the my step brother, Darien) but yet I was still nerves, I was more nerves with every step I took, but honestly I was awaiting some kind of joke or humiliation to accrue from Nanni or Deanna, or worse Zachary. I seriously wouldn't put it pasted Deana to set something up, knowing how she threats other people.
"Zach" I spoke softly, "May I please have my books?" He looked at me and his eyes deep blue eyes seemed to soften. I thought I was going to melt but I didn't, I kept my head held high. I thought of it has a attack, that the world relied on me getting through this. I know it's a silly way of handling things, but fighting the nagaverse was a lot easier then this.
"No, I am taking you home, Sweet Ami" my eyes widened something was differentally wrong here. But I enjoyed seeing the look on Nanni's face. Nanni just glared at me evilly, I swear she could be from the Nagaverse sometimes, "Nanni was just telling me there is a dance Friday. Should we go?"
"I don't go to dances" I sighed. I hate though things.. It's way to loud and there are so many people, granted it is easy for me to blend it, but it's not easy for me to read.
"Ami is to much into being nerd to go to any social event" Nanni reply was hateful and cold, "She is to shy to go anywhere but the geeky places like computer classes or chess matches"
"She's right, I really don't care to be around a large group of people" I gave a slight smile. Eh, Beryl should have gotten Nanni to do her work for her, she'd have been better at destroying us then the doom sisters.
"Well, I guess I have no choice but to go with her" He smiles at me and my heart sank. What was he doing? What is going on here? This isn't logically, you don't just ignore a dance for some girl you just met At least I would think you wouldn't
"You don't have too, Greg doesn't even do that" I smiled at him "you should go and have fun"
"Ami, We're Friends, and I rather be with you then at some lame dance" Deana walked up to us "So your stuck with me" I nodded slightly, I couldn't really argue. There was to much to think about and of course Deanna was right there anyways.
"Hey Nanni" Deana spoke, completely over looking me, she turned her attention to Zach "And you are?" She looks at Zach.seductively.
Deanna wore her cheerleader uniform and looked prefect and sexy has normal. Her Brown hair curled and not a strain was out of place. But like her type of girl it never would be.
"Zachary, My brother and I are new here at your school" He actually should no interest in her, at least none that I could see anyways, Which was very unusual, for the males in our school. Even Darien looked at her. He just never touched.
"Nice, I'm Deana" She smiled, "So you want to come over to my house today?" She asked him in the most seducive voice, and ofcourse was still overlooking me, But that doesn't surprise me.
"Sorry Deana, I asked Ami to let me take her to Dinner" I turned and looked at him confused, He never asked me that.. And even if he did... No one would turned down Deanna, she's too... well, she's sexy.
"oh" her red lips pouted slightly "Maybe another time then" I watched her and Nanni leave without much else other then a slight attitude. I am sure Deanna was in shock that she didn't get hardly any attention from the 'new guy' every girl is talking about.
"We are what?" I turn to completely face him, I was really lost, "I didnt know a ride home involed dinner, at least it normally it doesn't for me."
"I knew that would get you to confused Sweet Ami," He gentle touched my cheek "Let's go find my brother and tell him, then we'll leave, alright?"
"okay" I replied has we walked down the hall of the school. Wow this guy was amazing, and whatever the game was, he was good at it. I can't logically figure out what is going on. And part of me didn't want to, I wanted to continue living in blissful ignorance. But the other part of me, was scared and I had to know about him, I had to figure out his game.
