Claire's Pov
After my name was called the three girls that still didn't have a partner glared at me but they stopped and looked at the teacher when one of the other guy's name was called to see who would get him as a partner. I didn't really care about who was called next and who got who because I knew who I got and it was Shane Collins of all people why did it have to be him? Then I heard Danny's name being said by the teacher something about a group that's going to have to have two guys because there weren't enough girls. I looked up at Shane I'm guessing he didn't notice because he was to busy looking at the teacher and around the classroom to see who Danny would get put with. He must of not been considering our group because when the teacher told Danny he would be with us he glared at the teacher then I looked at Danny to see if he noticed the glare but he didn't he was too busy collecting his books to come sit by us. So now I knew that Shane wasn't really Danny's friend he was just pretending so his player and hottest guy status wouldn't go down. Then the teacher said that some of are parents and or guardians had picked whose house they wanted their children to stay at I knew mine would probably pick their house so when the teacher started saying names I was paying attention. "Brooke Britt you will be living at Liam O'dean's house" The teacher said. When the teacher called my name and was saying that I would be living at Shane Collins's house I was really surprised because my parents are usually so overprotective but I guess something changed because they wanted their daughter to stay at another person's house. The teacher interrupted my thoughts by saying we could discuss any concerns we have with are partner or partners. Then Danny came over to me and Shane and asked Shane where he would be sleeping Shane said they had a guestroom. "So Claire where do you want to sleep tonight" Shane asked. "I'll sleep with Danny in the guestroom tonight" I said to Shane. After I said that Shane gave Danny a look that I thought meant don't do anything bad to her like abuse her and Danny just nodded back. Shane then was telling me and Danny that he didn't live with his parents and he lived with two of his friends and we would have to help around the house I didn't mind that we had to help around the house I was just worried about his friends what if they were horrible to me kind of like Shane is well he just bugs me but still. Then the bell rang bringing me out of my thoughts. I started gathering my stuff so I could go home and pack when I was done I started to leave but before I could Shane asked me and Danny what time we would be coming. I didn't feel like giving Shane a straight answer so I just said whenever I'm done packing my stuff which I shouldn't even have to pack because knowing my mom she already packed it for me so I would be arriving very early. When I got home I was right my mom had packed my stuff already because it was sitting by the front door I told my mom I was home and I was just going to leave once I got my stuff from the door and I was just going to walk but my mom insisted I talk the car which is really a limo but I really didn't want to but she said she didn't want me walking because it was dangerous. I tried to argue with her that it was daylight and I walked from school to the house every day but she wasn't going to cave so in the end I put my bags in the limo and got in and the chauffeur took me to Shane's house.
Shane's P.O.V
After we were done discussing where they would be sleeping and about chores and my two other roommates that they would be living with the bell rang. We all started gathering up are things to leave for our homes but just before Claire and Danny were about to leave I stopped them and asked what time they would be coming. Claire looked defiant when I asked them that and she said whenever she was done packing her things. Danny said in two hours maybe three. I said okay and then we left to go to our houses. Then I thought I forgot to tell them where I live but the teacher probably gave Claire's parents directions but Danny never got them oh well maybe he won't be coming tonight that would be awesome. Then I thought how come I never have seen where Claire lives but I decided to forget about it I would find out soon. Then I walked the rest of the way to my house when I got home I ran up the stairs dropped my backpack in my room and went to go play some video games. After about 10 minutes I heard a car pull up and I thought maybe it was Danny or Claire. When I looked out the window I saw a limo and I thought maybe Danny's parents are rich but when Claire got out of the limo after the chauffeur opened her door and helped her I just sat there with my mouth open so wide. I didn't know Claire was rich I wonder what her parents do for a living. Then Claire started walking up the porch to our house with the chauffeur following with her things. I started walking to the door and unlocked it when the chauffeur opened it before I could. Claire smiled at him and said thank you. Then she looked at me. "Hi Shane" she said. "Hello Claire." I said then she turned to the chauffeur and told him he could leave she would carry her bags the rest of the way but he wouldn't let her then she got an annoyed look on her face but she controlled it and said "Okay, you may." He then picked up her bags and she asked me where she should put her bags. I thought you mean where your chauffeur should put your bags but I didn't say anything. After I told her to put her bags in my room she did. She dismissed her chauffeur and this time he actually left without an argument. Once he left I looked at Claire she looked relived and happy. Guess she doesn't like him well I could tell why he kept glaring at me whenever she turned around it was getting on my nerves. "So I'm guessing you don't like him?" I asked. "No, I don't like him that's why I avoid talking our limo." She answered.
I was curious to why she didn't like him.
"So why don't you like him." I asked
" I don't like him because he is always trying to flirt with me like someone I know."
I knew she was talking about me but I let that go and said asked "why don't your parents fire him." She said "Because he is a good chauffeur" Then I said "You know every time you turned your back to us he would glare at me it was very annoying." He was glaring at you because he knows about the school project and he doesn't like it especially you because he knows he won't win against you." When she said the last part I was really surprised but I hide my surprise and pretended she just didn't say that. But I was really happy about that so now I know I have a chance with her. That put me in a good mood so when we went downstairs to wait for Danny I knew I would be making a move on her tomorrow.
Claire's P.o.v
Once I was in the car and we were driving the chauffeur automatically started flirting with me it was so annoying that I put my head phones on discreetly so he didn't see and listened to music the whole way to Shane's house. When we got there I wanted to make Shane's jaw drop because he didn't know I was rich so I waited for the chauffeur to open my door and then I got out which I normally don't do. Then I started to walk up the porch and when we got to the door the chauffeur well his real name is Charlie but I call him the chauffeur because I hate him more than Shane with a passion. Anyways when we got up to the door I heard it being unlocked and then the chauffeur opened the door before Shane could and then I said "Hi Shane" and he replied "Hello Claire" and after than I told the chauffeur that I could carry my things the rest of the way but he insisted that he do it. I got very annoyed with him and I'm sure it showed on my face. Then I stepped in the house and I marveled how clean and tidy it was I wasn't really expecting that. I asked Shane where I should put my bags and he told me his room and I followed him and like I was expecting it was a mess. Whenever I turned my back I noticed Charlie would glare at Shane and it looked like Shane was getting annoyed. I turned back to them and I told Charlie he could go and he left without an argument I was so relived. Then Shane asked me if I liked him or not and I told him I didn't. He then asked why and I told him that he annoyed and flirted with me like someone I know. He didn't seemed bothered by that then he asked why my parents just didn't fire him and I just said because he is a good chauffeur. The he told me about the glaring and I told him basically he knew about the school project and didn't like it and he knew he could never win against you. Omg I just did not say that I wonder if Shane noticed but it seemed like he didn't because he wasn't gloating about it. Then we went downstairs to wait for Danny. Shane had this happy look on his face I was wondering why he was so happy and was about to ask why when he asked if I wanted to play a video game and when I saw the box it was my favorite video game and I said sure and he said this should be an easy win and I just smiled.
