Is It Love?
Chapter 2
Now let me just tell you that my day was so boring! Every time I came into a new class the teachers did the same thing. They asked me to introduce myself, which I did by sayin': ''Hi, my name is Rose '' and that was it. I didn't say anything else. My teachers as always put me in the back of the classroom 'cause they already made groups, which I didn't particularly mind, since I like working alone. There was one class that I really liked. It was history. I've loved that subject since I was a little girl. I just loved learning about the past. I always imagined that I have some kind of royal blood in my veins but as you can read I don't sound posh at all. Anyway, the teacher in the history class was also funny. He was making fun of the Celts. He used funny tactics so we could remember today's class.
When the class ended he called me. I stood up and went to him when everyone left the classroom except for one. Zac he was holding back for some reason.
'How are you settling in the school, Rose?' Mr Woodrock asked.
'I am fitting in just fine sir. I am really enjoying the classes and the teachers seem nice too.' I smiled.
'I knew your parents,' He started to say. He saw the shock in my eyes but he still continued. 'We were good friends. I promised them that I would look after you and help you when you're in trouble. So if you have any troubles please come and I'll try and help you.'
'I-I, um… I- Thank you. I-I should go, the next class is about to start.' I said. He just nodded and let me go.
I wasn't expecting this. The thing about my parents they disappeared when I was a little girl. I keep getting their letters every six months. They never explained why they ran away but that's okay because I don't really care.
As I walked alone in the long corridor I saw the sun shining. It was a clear, beautiful day and my next class was religion which I didn't give a damn about so I decided to skip that class. I went outside and sat on a freshly cut grass under the huge, old oak tree. I put my sunglasses on and I couldn't stop thinking about what Mr Woodrock had said to me. What did he mean by help? Please who does he think he is! I am no dummy! Suddenly I saw legs standing in front of me and blocking my view. I didn't look up to see who it was I just simply said
'Will you move you're blocking my view.' The legs didn't move. I really hate when people I don't know are in my space. I looked up and saw Zac standing there like a freaking soldier. I swear he looked like a prince, who just came back from war. His hair was messy and his clothes were loose.
'Why are you skipping class?' He asked
'Why do you care?'
'Don't answer my question with a question.' He smiled. I thank God my eyes are sensitive to the sun! His smile just killed me inside and my eyes would show it. Too bad he can't see. Ha like that's going to happen.
'Listen,' I said 'You don't know me; I don't know you and you didn't see me skipping class. Now could you move?'
'No, I won't move until I get an answer from you.' He answered me.
'Are you having fun?' I asked, while standing up. 'Because I am certainly find you very annoying. Look I am really in no mood for your games. I have too many damn thinking to do and you are not helping. So if you excuse me.' I stepped forward he did the same thing. Zac was now inches away from my face. He looked at my smiled his sexy half smile and said, 'My dear Rose,' he grabbed some of my hair smelled it and continued, 'I am playing no games and you know what I really like the smell of your hair.'
That was the last straw. It was bad enough that he didn't move now he's touching my hair. I flinched and slapped him across his sexy face. Some of the students who didn't have class saw me doing it. I looked at him; I really didn't like myself for that. 'Don't you dare, I am not one of your toys. You have no right to do that.' Those were the last words from me that day. I looked at him one more time before walking away.
