Dangerous minds

Chapter Two

Some people think I'm attractive. They say my good looks are what make people like me.

I have brown hair and green eyes. Normal really. I don't see why every female seems to notice me.

I am like most males in this school. Although I have a secret.

I am tall, I am fairly smart with my high grades, and I am good at sports. But why does that make me so different? Different from others?

I am fairly musclely in a swimmers sort of way, and am fairly skinny.

My six pack is there, barely. But still it's there. I am rather proud of it. I worked damn hard for it. Why? I don't know. To prove I had one is proberly the reason I worked so hard for it.

Funny really that I am attached to a feature of my body such as my six pack.

Funny really that I seem to talk to myself a lot when under this situation.

Yes I am at school.

Matherson Senior High. The local high school.

I am currently in yr. 11. I have just completed my school certificate and am well on my way to completing my higher school certificate.

At the end of this term after preliminary exams I will be half way there to the completion of school, halfway more to the beginning of the rest of my life.

But I don't think about that now, not when I have other matters in hand.

Like talking to my best mate. The guy I have come to label my crush.

Walking into the school grounds, I shift my backpack and fix my attire.

May as well look good when making an impression.

I try to eye out the usual suspects. I notice my mates standing at the flagpole with the exception of my best mate.

Damn it where is he.

The usual suspects are my classification for my mates. The reason in which I call them that is based on a movie and since my friends enjoy making trouble the term fits them correctly.

"Mate." They call to me as I approach them.

Whispering surrounds me as I stare back at the suspects. I give the girls surrounding the pathway to the flagpole a look.

That's what I hate. Why do girls act as if they're desperate then scurry away when confronted?

But that's of the subject. The subject is finding the object of my affection.

"Mate." I reply back to my friends as I lean against the flagpole.

"Heard what happened with you and Chloe." Marcus announces referring to my girlfriend.

"Yeah well we are better of as friends."

"So does that mean she's open for the taking?" Marcus asked with a smug look on his face.

"Not from the likes of you." I replied with an edge of seriousness. Hey, she might not be my girlfriend but that didn't mean she should have to fend of guys like Marcus.

"What's wrong with you?" Marcus replied turning to the other guys for support.

"Nothing, just a bad night."

Marcus smiled knowingly.

"Didn't get any hey?"

"Something like that." I said brushing off the topic.

Marcus was one of those guys who were respected for the amount of screws he had in a year. So it was expected that a topic like this would begin within minutes of my arrival.

Like I said none of them knew I was a virgin and I wanted it to be kept that way.

Nudges and whistles flooded from my friend's mouths at the announcement of my last sentence. Typical that they would jump to conclusions like that.

"So who was the lady?" Simon asked joining in the conversation.

"Why would I tell any of you?" I replied avoiding the topic.

"Shall I guess. How about Josie? Or Amanda?" Lucas added in.

I just gave them a look.

"Where's Brad?" I asked referring to the object of my affection.

"Sick." Daniel supplied. "He rang me this morning, asked if we could get his homework."

I cringed inwardly. I hoped he wasn't to sick.

"Talk about Spock." Marcus stated.

"He could miss a few days of homework. It's not as though his behind or anything." Lucas added.

I held my temper as they spoke behind my crush's back.

"I'll get it for him. I only have half a day today." I said.

"You serious?" Simon asked.

I stared at Simon as though an unwanted truth had been revealed. Could he know?

"About what?" I asked hoping Simon didn't confirm my current thoughts.

"That you only have half a day. That sucks." Simon finished. I momentarily breathed a sigh of relief,

"That's life." I mocked.

The bell for the beginning of the day rung and with that I went to my lessons with hope of seeing my crush all the sooner.

~*~*~*~*~*~*

The bell for recess rung, and with that bell, it signaled the end of my day.

Walking up to the office I held a certain glow. I was going to see my crush, although he was sick. Not for long with my help. I silently added.

I signed out and walked out of the school. It was a good thing Brad didn't live far from the school. A good twenty-minute walk awaited me, but it was worth it.

Twenty minutes later I stood on Brad's front porch. His homework in one hand and a pizza in the other, which I had picked up on the way.

I knocked on the door and waited.

And waited.

And waited. He wasn't home. Damnit.

I tried once again and banged on the door, louder this time.

I was startled as the door I had been currently leaning on was suddenly opened; I fell flat on my face.

A hand was placed on my shoulder and I looked up into the blue eyes of my best mate. My eyes wondered over his chest, which was exposed, and down to his satin boxer shorts. His blond hair was messy in a bed head type of way. He was gorgeous as always.

"Mate, what are you doing here?" he asked. I contained a blush and smiled up at him.

"Bringing you your homework." I supplied.

He cocked his eyebrow up in a cute type of way and offered me his hand, which I willingly accepted as he helped me up.

"Aren't you meant to be at school?" he asked in that sexy voice.

"I got no more classes today." I confirmed.

"Oh." Brad replied.

"Yeah, so I brought your homework." I handed him his homework.

"Thanks. Did you want something, a drink or oh you have pizza." Brad began as he picked up the pizza I had dropped. Luckily it was still firmly inside its box.

"Yeah I thought you would be hungry, I am." For him, I silently thought.

I brushed myself off and followed behind Brad as he walked into the kitchen, I couldn't help myself from noticing his behind.

Brad placed the pizza on the table and grabbed two cans of coke. I lent against the counter as I opened the can.

"So why weren't you at school today?" I asked Brad.

"Felt sick this morning."

"Did you see the doctor?" I asked concern in my voice.

"Nope, I'll survive. I fell better now anyway." I choice to ignore the possible double meaning.

"That's good." I replied hoping he didn't catch my double meaning.

"Want to watch a movie or something?" he asked suddenly breaking the silence.

I nodded and soon we were watching 'The matrix.' eating pepperoni pizza and drinking coke.

Hours seemed to drift by and after we had finished watching 'The Matrix.' We put on 'Fat Pizza.' And then 'Terminator 3.' Soon the clock struck 8pm.

I suddenly arose; I had barely kept my emotions intact as we watched the movies, me with my quick glances at Brad and Brad with the sexy looks throughout the entire movies.

I had to go. I couldn't control my emotions any more. I made my way towards the door and opened it.

A hand on my shoulder suddenly stopped me. I turned.

There stood Brad, clad in boxer shorts.

"Where are you going?" he asked.

"Home, I've distracted you long enough." I explained, inside silently kicking myself.

"You don't have to go."

I did a double take and stared at Brad.

"You shouldn't go, not in this weather anyway." I couldn't believe it. Brad. The Brad, in whom I had silently grown a deep crush on over a year, wanted me to stay at his house. Did I dare stay?

Looking outside I realised it was thundering down with rain. In my emotional state I had ignored the weather outside.

"I can't stay here, your parents wouldn't.." I began.

"Care." Brad supplied. "There away in Sydney for the week."

"Oh. Anyway I have to go my parents will worry." Why was I making up excuses?

"You can ring them if you want." Brad said.

"Brad why do you want me to stay?" I asked suddenly curious at Brad's sudden eagerness.

"Well it's just been really good today. If you go then I will have no company."

"Oh." I replied, suddenly sad. I don't know why I was getting my hopes up. Silly really.

"And." Brad suddenly said.

"Yes." I asked.

"Well you see."

"Yes." I encouraged.

Suddenly Brad approached me at a fast pace. He placed a hand on my waist and pulled me towards him. I was too shocked to do anything else so I stood frozen in place.

"There's something I need to tell you." He began, but placed a hand over my lips as I went to speak.

"I've put this of to long." He finished leaving me looking at him questioningly.

"What are you talking about?" I asked. Suddenly more curious.

"I know." Brad stated. Referring to my secret.

I stared at him long and hard.

"How?" I questioned.

"How couldn't I? I realised it too late. But now you can be mine." He said. Confirming all my wildest dreams. He knew and he didn't care and from the looks of things he felt the same way.

"Yours?" I asked.

"Always." He said as he tenderly ran his fingers along the sides of my face. I opened my mouth to say something, to ask if this was real, when his mouth suddenly claimed mine in a searing kiss.

Bloody hell... He's good. Was my last coherent thought as I felt my body go limp.

I opened my eyes which I just realised I had closed, and went to look into the eyes of Brad but was met with a forest. I stared around in astonishment at my surroundings. What the hell?
