Chapter 3; Remember Me?

CLAIRE'S POV:

Eve was awesome. After she calmed down we started talking. She told us who with live with (who sound terrible, but I don't remember their names...) and that she felt really alone before because she lives with her enemies and has been wanting to move to a different house but there weren't any more avaliable. Me and Alice felt really sorry for poor Eve so decided we would look out for her. Even though I had only known Eve for a few minutes I felt like she was my bestfriend.

Eve told us about the different kinds of people and who to avoid. She told us where our classes are and who would be in them (Eve was in a lot of mine) and also who our teachers were. Most of the teachers sound horrid. We talked about ourselves a lot (but left out the vampire stuff) and Eve was really awesome. I had loads in common with her, things like we like the same music.

Alice was in the middle of telling Eve about Lee (because she wanted to know about him since he came here with us) when the door slammed open and three girls stood in the doorway. One of them was that girl I met... Melissa? And the other two were just as fake as Melissa, Probably her backups. That's when I realised they were the one's Eve was ranting out. I understand why she hates them.

"Look what the cat dragged in! It's goth girl!" Melissa beamed.

"Which one?" her backup joined in. I really couldn't be bothered with them right now.

"Look... Melissa I think? Something like that. Just piss off with your bitches upstairs before I get angry and have to punch you in your plastic face" I said calmly. Eve giggled, but Alice gave me a look to stop talking, but I ignored her.

"IT'S MONICA!" Monica shouted. Why do I always think shes called Melissa?

"I don't really care what your name is" I said rolling my eyes. Monica and her backups stormed upstairs cursing under their breath.

"Okay thats never happened before" Eve said still staring at the stairs. Then she looked at me "I'm so glad your my friend! This is gonna be fun!".

SHANE'S POV (NEXT DAY, FIRST LESSON):

The first lesson I had was Math. It was cruel to have Math first lesson in the morning. Espicially if you have Mr. Bell. He was a short, balding man with a pot belly and would use any excuse to shout at us.

I sat on my desk, because we had 5 minutes until lesson starts so we could chat. Two spaces to my right was Michael and 1 space infront and 1 to the right was Monica. The rest were people I didn't bother with. Monica turned to me and said "See! We look amazing since we match!". She had woken me up at 6am to tell me to wear black and red. I was not pleased. The bell rang so I sat down in my seat and waited for the teacher to arrive. He was always late. However when I looked up I saw Claire. Wait Claire? What was she doing here? She must be the new student. She was walking with Eve and sat down in the desk next to my right. Eve sat in her place, infront of me.

Claire was looking around when she saw me, and then smiled. She must of recognised me. I smiled back and was just about to speak when the teacher came in and the classroom shut up. Great timing. Not.

The lesson went on and nobody spoke. Suddenly the teacher got up and said "Right I just need to go next door, stay quiet and finish the work on the board or else". He then waddled out of the room and then everyone started talked. I turned to Claire. "Hey, what are you doing here?"

"Transferred" was all she said not looking up from her work. I looked at Michael and he had a confused look. He mouthed "Whose that?". I mouthed back "The girl I was talking about". I told Michael about when I met Claire at the mall. Michael just shrugged and carried on with his work. Claire put her pen down and looked up. She was about to speak, but she stopped and looked at Monica.

"Hey Freak!" Monica said taunting Eve "Hey Ugly, Goth girl, what are the answers?" Eve just ignored her. I've seen Eve quite a lot, she in loads of my classes. She keeps to herself most of the time though.

Claire kicked Mon's chair causing Monica to turn around "Leave her alone" Claire said glaring. The whole class went silent and watched them.

"What are you gonna do about it freak?" she replied with a evil grin. Claire then reached out and grabbed Monica by the hair and pulled her backwards. Monica yelped.

"Appolise" Claire said calmly. When she said nothing she pulled harder.

"Oww!" Monica cried "Alright I'm sorry!" she squeaked. Claire then let go. The whole class was frozen. No one had ever stood up to Monica before. Mr. Bell came rushing in just as the bell went. "Class dismissed" he huffed.

Claire picked up her things and raced out of class with Eve hot on her heels.

CLAIRE'S POV:

I rushed down the halls with Eve following me. "Hey!" She said and grabbed my arm stopping me from going any further. "What was that all about?"

"She was bullying you. I don't like bullies" I said simply.

"Well thanks" she said smiling. I thought she would of said "well I can look after myself" or something so I was relieved that she didn't mind. So we went to our next class and carried on through the day.

6 period. Science. Great. Monica was in that class too. Although Eve said she was at the front of class and we were at the back, I still kept my eyes peeled. I was sat on the back row with Eve to my left. We were lab partners. On the lab table on my right was Shane and some blonde guy. "Whose the blonde guy" I whispered to Eve. "Michael Glass. Musican. Totally hot. Had a crush on him for years, but he doesn't know I exist" Eve whispered back sadly.
"You should talk to him, never know" But Eve just looked at me like I was crazy.

The bell went and Mrs. Green told us to sit down. She told us to do the questions on the board while she marked some work. I found it easy because I have had years to learn. I was frozen at 18 but been that way for 81 years. I was on question 13 when a note landed on my work. I opened it and it read:

Hey Claire,

Remember me?

-Shane.

I wrote:

Shane,

Yeah I nearly pushed you in the fountain and your slag girlfriend started shouting at me ;)

-Claire.

And passed it back. He read it and wrote on it again. Then when the teacher wasn't looking he passed it again.

Yeah sorry about that.

Anyway why did you transfer here?

It's so boring...

And btw it was cool that you stood up for your friend

I wrote:

It's okay.

I transferred here with 2 friends and I guess it was just close by.

And thanks.

And passed it. I watched his face and he looked at me with a puzzled look. He wrote something and passed again:

Did you transfer with Lee? Coz he's my roommate.

Oh that's why he was puzzled, I wrote my response and gave it back. Then the bell went and I got up and left.

SHANE'S POV(Sorry it's short):

I opened the note we had been passing and read it:

Yeah with Lee and Alice, my other room mate.

Gotta dash- bells gone;)

We should hang out sometime though:)

-C.

When I read she wanted to hang out I got butterflies. I couldn't be falling for her. Could I?

What do you think?

R&R :D

Thanks!
