"Shawn, stop,"Belle Black giggled as Shawn Brady played with her blond ponytail.
He sat behind her in Science class and stared at her silky blond hair every chance he got. Occasionally, he decide to do something to annoy her. It was a habit. What could he do? He had messed with her and teased her throughout high school. But ever since last summer when they went out to the cabin with his parents, he saw her in a new light. Ever since she had walked out onto the dock in her pink bikini, he couldn't stop thinking about her. Every time she would tilt her head back and laugh uncontrollably when his dad made lousy attempts to be cool. The image of her stuck with him always. He couldn't get her out of his head. He flicked her ponytail again and this time, she whipped around to face him, smiling. "Problem, Belle?" he tried his hardest to smile innocently.
"Yes. You. I'm trying to pay attention here and you're making it impossible," she whispered trying not to catch the attenion of their teacher.
Too late. Mr Johnson had already spotted them talking and stopped his lecture to walk back to them. He cleared his throat, and Belle turned to face the very aggravated teacher. "I'm so terribly sorry. Did I interrupt your very important conversation?" he asked sarcastically.
Belle blushed and apologized quietly. Shawn simply smiled and looked at their teacher. "As a matter of fact," he replied with a smile.
Mr Johnson was fuming now. "Mr Brady, office. NOW!" he ordered, raising his voice.
"Alright. Fine with me," Shawn replied as he gathered his books. Before going out the door, he turned and smiled at Belle. "Talk to you later, princess" and winked before turning out the door, leaving an embarrassed Belle
