The eyes were a penetrative blue and I could feel myself getting lost in them. Embarrassingly enough I heard a clearing of a throat and turned around to meet the gaze of my teacher. "Lola, a disruption to the class is not a good way to start on your first day. Please take a sit and be quite."
Thank god my skin was dark enough so as my cheeks couldn't show me blushing. I never blushed, although I could feel my face burning as a quickly took the nearest available seat next to me, not even looking as to who I was seated next to. The mystery person with the blue eyes had obviously gone back to their seat.
About half way through the lesson a piece of paper rolled in front of me. I casually picked it up and unrolled it.
Hello Lola,
My name is Zak J How are you enjoying your first day?
Are you always clumsy?
Hahahahahaha.
From Zak
Xx
I looked up in surprise to see who this mystery "Zak" person was. I was met with the blue eyes again as I realised who I was sitting next to. Embarrassingly enough I let out a small gasp and I heard him quietly laugh. That was when I really looked at him. He had fair skin and a well defined jaw. His hair was dark brown and tousled with a sort of side fringe that cut down the left hand side of his face. He had amazing eyes and was smiling back, showing a gorgeous set of teeth. He was tall and lean, yet well muscled. (A/N Imagine him looking like Gaspard Ulliel J) I weakly smiled in return and faced the front, set on writing a reply.
Hey Zak,
Considering my first day has barely started, I haven't really done anything enjoyable yet so I am not sure how to answer that question. Oh and yes I am clumsy..
Don't Laugh.
Is Mr Futrim always this annoying?
Lola xx
I quickly threw it back to him and as he read it I could hear him chuckle, before to long I was hit with a reply.
Yes he is always this grumpy and annoying, you just have to be good and he won't hate you.
What is your next class, cause I will walk you there. And would you like to eat lunch with me?
Xx
I couldn't believe this. I barely new this amazing boy and already he had asked me to eat lunch with him. I was stoked and immediately nodded in reply. A few minutes later the bell rang and I actually got a chance to talk to him properly.
"So Lola, what's your next class?" he asked with a sly grin.
I smiled in return and took a look at my schedule. "Um Gym apparently" I said with a grin. I loved gym. I had always been good at sport growing up, and to be truthful, I was kind of proud of it. I hoped we were playing soccer, because that was my favourite sport and am quite good at.
"Brilliant!" he exclaimed, "I have gym as well."
He started walking in the direction of what I assumed was the gym, and I quickly followed. The walk to the gym was filled with idle chatter about nothing at all really. I didn't tell him my reason for moving here, I didn't want pity friends. If I really became friends with him, then maybe sometime in the future he would find out. I also didn't tell him my other secret, but then again, no one knows about that.
When we got to the gym we split our separate ways to get changed. I change into some shorts and a singlet, one of my favourite outfits. As I was getting changed three girls approached me, with what appeared to be fake smiles.
"Hello Lola" the one with blonde hair, spat at me "I'm Taylor"
I smiled back in return, in what I hoped, looked genuine. The other two looked like clones, but one with brown hair and one with black. "I'm Camilla." The one with brown hair said, "and I'm Kirsty" said the black haired girl. I could tell that they were not here on friendly business.
"Look, we don't like hate you or anything, we are just here to tell you to stay the hell away from Zak! He is mine!" Taylor angrily said.
I nearly burst out laughing right then and there. "Is it just me or shouldn't Zak at least be aware of your claim over him" I replied, suppressing a giggle.
"It doesn't matter!" she nearly screamed " Just stay away from him and don't talk to him!"
"I can talk to whoever I like thankyou very much, an no I will not stay away from him" I said. I didn't care if I made enemies on my first day. If they weren't going to be my enemies on the first day, then surely it would've happened at a later date. And with that, I stalked out of the room and out onto the oval.
To my delight we were playing soccer. I was the only girl that wanted to participate, and because it was the first day back, the other girls were allowed to sit out. All the boys laughed in surprise when they saw that I was going to play. Zak came running over. "Are you playing soccer?" he asked, with a hint of delight.
"Well yes, it happens to be my favourite sport, and if you think a girl cant play soccer then maybe you should watch out" I quipped back. If he thought I girl couldn't play soccer then he was in for a surprise, because I was better then a lot of the boys at my old school and I was sure that wasn't going to change here.
The coach blew the whistle and the game started. I looked over to Zak who was on the other team and grinned. Then the ball came my way. The boys were testing me out. I quickly controlled it and started to run it down the sideline, I had speed, even over most of these boys. A boy came in and tried to tackle me but I quickly got around him, much to his surprise. I kept running and two more boys tried the same thing. When I stepped around them and headed for the goals. I deftly fired a shot and it went straight over the goalies head and into the back of the net. I did a little cheer of self celebration and turned around to see a field of stunned boys.
Zak was the first one to move. He came running up, "Lola that was amazing!" he near shouted. "I had no idea a girl could even play soccer that good, I am sorry for doubting you."
I just smiled and said a weak "Thanks" in return.
The game continued much the same way for the rest of the hour and by then end of it we were all sweaty and laughing, Zak being really nice as usual. The bell rang and I went to get changed. It was lunchtime. As I walked out of the change rooms I nearly ran into a person. I looked up to see who the offending person was, only to meet the lovely blue of eyes of Zak, again. He grinned a dazzling smile and I couldn't help but smile back.
"Care to join me for lunch Miss Pearson" he said in a faux English accent. I laughed at his immaturity.
"Of course, I would be simply delighted, Mr…"
"Brady" he finished.
I giggled as he looped his arm through mine and we set of to lunch together. Much to the glares of Taylor and her crew. I couldn't help but give a smug smile back, even though I knew I would pay for it later. I laughed at my thoughts.
"What are you laughing at Lola?" Zak asked
"Oh, I know this is nothing to be proud of, but I think I have already made some extreme enemies" I said, indicating to the girls.
"Oh, don't worry about Taylor and her friends, they are annoying and need to get their noses out of other peoples businesses." He said, a little too loudly, obviously intending it for their ears.
Taylor stomped the ground and stormed off, closely followed by her band of followers.
I laughed aloud as I watched their retreating figures. Before to long we hit the cafeteria and headed over to get our lunch. Zak then took us to a table with a few other sporty looking guys and 2 nice looking girls who were sitting there, next to their boyfriends.
As we sat down I took a proper look around the cafeteria. Everyone was eating the lunch, caught up within their own cliques. Such a school image, that is until I saw them. 5 of them, amazingly beautiful people. The only thing off about them was the scowls set on their faces, as they looked directly at me…
Well what do you think so far, honestly?
PLease review, if you stick around this story is actually going somewhere, just please review :)
