Chapter 4
I left the dinning hall with Mercedes and Tina, someone who joined our table with her Boyfriend Mike (who was also a football player in Glee) while we ate lunch
we grabbed our books and headed to our next class 'History'
"hey Artie, where were you at Lunch?" Tina asked as she stopped by a boy in a wheelchair, she grabbed the back and began to push him along with us
"With Brittney" He simply replied
he looked up at Tina and Mercedes
"she...well... actually don't ask" He smiled
His eyes then ran over my face
"Artie, Addy, Addy, Artie" Tina said, quickly introducing us
Artie smiled
"Nice to meet you" He said
"you too" I replied
We reached our class room and everyone took their seat, i took one behind Mercedes and Tina. Artie sat on the table across from me. Mercedes turned in her seat
"You want me to sit next to you?" She asked looking a little concerned, realising she automatically sat next to Tina
"No, it's fine" I replied smiling
"well in that case, you can burrow this till we get you your own copy from the library" She smiled, handing me over her book
"Oh, thanks" I smiled back
"no problem" She replied, turning back in her seat.
I opened the book and began to flick through the pages, a shadow appeared over me, i looked up to see Tyler standing there, he smiled. I had to admit, Tyler was fairly good looking, especially when he smiled, he had a little dimple in his left cheek, but of what i had seen of him so far... he was a jerk.
"am i in your seat?" I asked, grabbing the book and about to stand
"oh no sweetheart" He replied, placing his hand on my shoulder and pushing me back into my seat
"I usually sit over there" He smiled, pointing his thumb over his shoulder to a seat the other side of the room,
"But... i'm thinking i might come keep you company" he replied, bending over slightly and leaning on the desk
"umm...sure" I replied.
He walked behind me to take the seat beside me, Artie lent into the small gap between our tables
"If you need me to, i'll swap" He said
i smiled at him
"I'll see how it goes, but thanks" I replied.
Artie sat upright again and faced the front. Tyler, moved his seat closer and turned towards me slightly, lifting his arm up, placing it over my shoulder and pulling me into him slightly
"So sweetheart, how about we meet up after school today, i could show you around the school abit better" he smiled, winking slightly
"ummm... sounds thrilling, but i have a meeting..." I started
"Ok, Class... take your seats and get your books out" Mrs Chance said, placing her bag on her desk, and turning towards the board, she began to write afew dates down
I lifted his hand by his finger and moved it off my shoulder
"But, umm... thanks" I replied
"anytime sweetheart" he smiled
Mercedes looked at me over her shoulder
"sorry" Mercedes mouthed
"that's ok" I mouthed back
I was sure Tyler was trying to get closer throughout the class, i wasn't sure however, if it was because he was trying to copy my notes, or just invade my privacy, but luckily, as soon as the bell went, he was out of there, but not before looking me up and down again, with a half grin across his face and placing his hand on my back as he passed.
"is he always so... hands on?" I asked Mercedes as we watched Tyler leave the room
"Ha... i guess so, not usually with us, but yeah" She smiled
I handed over her book back to her and we walked out the room and down the Hall
"well... here's your next class, unfortunately Tina and i aren't in this class, but Puck is" Mercedes smiled, raising her brow
i smiled and laughed slightly
"right... anyone else?" I asked
"well Rachel is, but i think you're safer with Puck" Tina laughed
I laughed too
"ok, well Thanks, i'll see you later" I said, saying goodbye as i headed into the class and took a seat towards the back, I watched as the rest of the students filed in, i then looked down at my notebook and began to doodle on the cover
"hey" The familiar deep voice of Puck said in my ear, causing me to look up suddenly
"Hey" I replied
he smiled and took a seat beside me
"Glad i decided not to skip class" He smiled
"glad i seem to help you gain education" I teased back
Puck laughed and looked at me, i looked into his eyes, he had amazing eyes, they seemed to sparkle slightly
"so how was your last class?" Puck asked
"Are you really interested or just trying to find something to talk about?" I asked
"I'm interested" he said, staring straight back into my eyes, he smiled slightly
"it was ok, except the constant touching" I said, tearing my eyes away from his, before i got lost in them
"Who was touching?" He asked, a smirk on his face appearing
"Tyler" I replied
Pucks knuckles cracked, and i turned to look at him
"You ok?" I asked
"Yeah, er.. look Addy, urmm... might be best if you try and stay away from him, Keller...well... he has a reputation" Puck said
i looked into his eyes again, they were full of concern, i could see he was genuinely worried about Tyler being near me
"Ok" I replied quietly
