Chapter 2
I stepped back, and Kane stepped cautiously in front of me. Katie gawked at him, without moral restraint and immediately plastered a frilly smile on her glossy lips.
"Do I know you? I think I do!" She giggled hysterically. Walking towards him like a cat stalking a mouse. She sneered at me, challenging me with one look. Katie was shorter than me and was stick thin, with bleached blonde hair and perfect features. Wearing her Cheerleading uniform of our school colors, deep purple and gray and white, looking perfect as annoying as usual.
"I could walk you to your next class," Katie said it as a statement instead of a question. She reached out to take his arm but he shook his head, "No, thank you." He grabbed my backpack and swung it over his arm. Leading me to the door, Katie's astonished expression following us all the way out the Library.
As soon as we were out of ears distance I began laughing, I laughed so hard my stomach hurt.
"Why didn't you go with her?" I asked Kane, bracing myself the hallway wall.
"She just wanted to make you feel bad, by taking me away," He said a mischievous smile lit his face, "She thinks you like me and wanted you to watch her take me." He winked.
If there was a color redder than tomato red, that would be my face.
"Besides, she isn't nearly as pretty as you." Kane put an arm around my shoulders.
Right as a stamped of highschoolers rushed in. I checked my watch shocked too see that it read:
7:20 A.M.
How had 20 minutes gone by?
"Well, if you want a whole tour of the school we will have to skip lunch, assuming we have the same schedule," I said pausing to see if he would refuse.
"That sounds wonderful," He chuckled, "Here is my schedule." Handing me a piece of paper in the administrative office's secretaries hand, and I read it aloud:
1st Hour: Advanced English (in Library)
2nd Hour: Advanced Chemistry (room 260)
3rd Hour: Advanced Math (room 435)
4th Hour: Study Hall (room 178)
5th Hour: Lunch (Cafeteria)
6th Hour: Gym (Gym)
7th Hour: Art (room 246)
8th Hour: Music (room 247)
"Wow," Is all I say.
"What? Is something wrong?" Kane's cool expression turning into a confused concerned face. I look into his beautiful eyes, quite dramatically I might add, and say, "We have the same schedule except gym and music are switched." I laugh. Thank god, if I had to run in front of Kane I would trip and fall and die. In that order.
"Humh. Well, that is unfortunate. I would like to have heard you sing." Kane says, then as if noticing he said it aloud, blushing like a tomato. I am taken aback by his beauty.
"How did you know that I sing?" I question one eyebrow lifting. Kane stares at me slowly backing into the lockers. I follow, my hands on my hips.
"Your mother told me!" He blurts clapping one hand to his mouth, eyes wide. I frantically look around the hallway to see if anyone heard. The hallway is deserted.
