You guys are so amazing! 5 reviews in just one day! So as promised, another chapter

For the rest of the week I was always the first to class in biology. I never talked, just focused purely on . I used whatever excuse I could to talk to him.

It was Friday I had my first conversation with him that wasn't related to biology. It was the day of Mason's party and everyone was really excited. For the party it was a tie between two outfits. I choose to wear one to the party and the other to school, even though it must have been breaking plenty of rules about clothing.

"Miss Hathaway, can I speak to you for a moment?" My heart skipped a beat as I walked over to him. I got a lot of jealous stares from girls as they were leaving the classroom; apparently I wasn't the only one who had thought he was fit.

"Miss Hathaway," he said in that sexy Russian accent. I swear I could listen to it all day.

"Yes," I mumbled. Perhaps he was going to praise me for my excellent behaviour in class this week.

"Do you really think that outfit is acceptable?"

I looked down at what I was wearing. This was a possible outfit for the party, that was too good to not wear. It was short black shorts with a beaded silver crop top. I didn't have any tights on even though it was October and starting to get cold.

Lots of teachers had looked at my outfit today and just sighed. There wasn't anything really they could do, seeing as I had nothing else to change into. I certainly hadn't expected Mr Belikov of all teachers to bring me up on it.

"Don't you think it looks good then?" I know this was ruining all the time I spent on good behaviour but I couldn't let this flirting opportunity go away.

"That is not what I was asking Miss Hathaway," he said with a sigh. There was something about his eyes though, purposely trying to look away from what I was wearing, from all the leg that was on show.

"I don't think it's unacceptable, Mr Belikov," I replied.

"Well some would say they disagree. Indeed, they may find it distracting from their work."

Distracting! Where was all this stuff coming from? I was aware boys had been looking at me all day, but nobody had actually stopped what they were doing to look.

This is a type of joking conversation I would have with my best friend Mason. Which is probably why my next reply came out with me thinking.

"Do you find it distracting?" I said this is the seductive tone I would have used to talk to Mason with, totally not suitable to talk to teachers with.

He got up from where he had been perching on the edge of his desk. Gosh he was so tall, he must have been a foot taller than me.

He didn't say anything for a couple of seconds, even though they felt like days. I wanted to know desperately what he was thinking at this very moment.

Eventually he faced me, and said in a very controlled voice "That is not how a student talks to a teacher Miss Hathaway. Perhaps you need some lessons on being polite. You will have plenty of time to practise at detention with me, Monday after school. Now hurry up, you don't want to be late for your next lesson.

I slipped out of the room quietly. Private time with Mr. Belikov. This definitely wasn't punishment to me.

I didn't tell Lissa about what had happened with Mr Belikov. I felt so used to telling her everything and it felt good not revealing something for once. She did ask me what he had wanted to talk to me about though.

"Oh nothing really, I've improved a lot from when we had Mrs. Withams." I was the master of lying.

"Oh yeah," Lissa said, raising her eyebrow. "I wonder what has made you suddenly become so focused in biology.

We laughed and I laid back on her bed, flicking through magazines, getting ready for Mason's party. I was at Lissa's house, if you could even call it that. It was more like a fricking mansion! Even after all these years of knowing her, I still sometimes got lost in this house.

I asked her once how they had all this money as I knew that Lissa's parents had pretty ordinary jobs. She said she was related to some Prince of Russia on her mother's side who decided to give them all this money. She never got to meet them though as her parents died.

It was a touchy subject for Lissa, seeing as it only happened 2 years ago. I can tell she still cries a lot and has nightmares from the red rim around her eyes and the big black bags that she tries to cover up with concealer but I still notice.

Their death was a pretty awful one as far as deaths goes. Lots of blood and screaming, not silently and peaceful. Her parents and her older brother Andre were driving to go watch Lissa's ballet recital when their car collided with a speeding truck. Pronounced dead at the scene. I was with Lissa when she found out the news. For months after that it was like Lissa was covered with a darkness. It followed her everywhere, causing her friends to separate themselves from her, and to cause her schoolwork to go down. I stayed by her side though, and I like to think it was my support that helped her come out of it.

So for now Lissa lived with her older cousins, Trey and Reed. They were OK, but they were out most of the time anyway so we didn't have to worry about them.

We spent a lot of time getting ready and finally at half 9 we were ready to go to the party. Lissa was more beautiful by far; she was tall and slim and had beautiful long blonde hair that complimented her features perfectly. Tonight she had on a sequin miniskirt, a plain white oversized vest top and a black blazer. The whole outfit was completely stunning. While I was always envious of Lissa's look, she was envious of mine. I was average height, but had curves in all the right places. I had tanned skin tone from my Turkish father who I had never met, and dark brown hair that almost looked black.

I had on the outfit I decided was best for the party. What would Mr Belikov say if he saw me now, I thought. I had on a shimmering gold dress that was high necked at the front and revealed the whole of my back. Did I mention it was almost rather short? I had my long hair up in a simple messy bun.

Lissa and I examined ourselves for a couple of seconds and then we turned to each other.

"Come on, lets go!"

Please review guys, it means so much!

This was pretty much a filler chapter but the next two chapters are so action packed! Will try update tomorrow as I have no more exams, WOOHOOO!
