So here is the next chapter I hope you like it :D thank you for the reviews and story follows and favorites, please keep them coming! Thank you!
"You know some people think I look incredibly sexy when I smoke" I whisper in Alex's ear smirking as we walk to home room, my arm flung casually over her shoulders.
"Yea? Well I'm not one of them so unless you want one of those people to be your girlfriend you better quit, soon" she retaliates playfully poking my side. There was a hint of sternness to her otherwise joking tone though.
"Noted" I tell her as I kiss her cheek.
We walk into home room and take our seats. Out of all my classes home room is my favourite, Miss Gellar is the best teacher at this school. She's relatively young for a teacher and, with me and Alex at least, she's not like a teacher at all I consider her a friend.
"Ah there you two love birds are" she says as Alex takes my hand. "Look what I saw this morning in Starbucks" she holds up some gossip magazine with me on the cover, I'm standing on the film lot of my new film with my 'one a day cigarette' and a very angry look on my face. I wasn't angry of course, paparazzi take so many pictures and trust them to use the only one where I don't look my usual dorkily happy self. The caption of the magazine reads "Trouble in paradise? Mitchie Torres smoking away the pain of a harmful relationship?"
"I didn't know you two we're having problems. I'm so sorry" Miss Gellar jokes.
"Oh yea can't stand each other, I'm surprised we're even managing to be in the same room" Alex laughs as she kisses the back of my hand.
"Does the article say anything about how sexy I look when I smoke?" I ask like an excited puppy. Alex and miss Gellar both roll their eyes and laugh at me.
"No because you don't"
"Ouch, that hurt Lex" I say holding my heart and pulling the most dramatic, over the top hurt face I could manage. She rolls her eyes again and calls me a dork and starts talking to miss Gellar about my new movie.
Me and Alex both decided that we wanted to stay at school. Most of the people here were pretty cool and wouldn't make a big fuss when we walked into the cafeteria or if we were just walking around the halls but the freshman were always a different story. They LOVED Alex, with the release of her new album it was getting almost impossible to walk from class to class. Miss Gellar suggested that we leave the class 5 minutes after everyone else and then when we are walking the hallways are pretty much empty. I love this school and I think Alex does too, it's were we met and for that reason it will always remain the happiest place on earth for me.
"Oh sorry I didn't see you..." I look up and words escape my brain. Standing over me was a girl with the warmest brown eyes I have ever seen. She looked like an angel and completely and absolutely took my breath away.
"It's ok I wasn't looking where I was going" she says as she hands me the last book off of the floor.
"No it's my fault I'm still not used to the school yet" I manage to gather my thoughts and string together a sentence. School started about a week ago and it was taking longer than expected to find my bearings.
"It's ok, I'm not either. You're Mitchie Torres right?" She asks. I'm amazed, how does she know my name, I don't remember seeing her around before.
"That's me. How did you know that?"
I question.
"We have home room together, it was my first day today. I was out of town at the beginning of the week." She says shrugging.
"Oh cool, mind if I ask where you were?" I really didn't want this conversation to end. I feel like I'd miss her if she walked away which was ridiculous seeing as we just met under 5 minutes ago but I just had a... Pull to her perhaps?
"I was in L.A meeting with a record company" she says.
"Wow! That's amazing! I'm guessing you're a singer then?" Jeez, good one Mitch. Ask the beautiful girl the most obvious question on earth.
"Yep" she replies with a small laugh, "wasn't that obvious when I said 'record company'?"
"Yea I know I guess I'm just nervous"
I blurted out without thinking.
She raises an eyebrow at me.
"Nervous?" She asks. Oh crap, now what? I don't want to get outed on the first week of highschool!
"Oh nothing... Just new people make me nervous" I say, stuttering slightly. She still looks confused about something but nods never the less.
"Hey, how about we skip 5 and 6 and go somewhere... Nicer?" She whispers, leaning into me. Her floral scent making me a little dizzy.
"Won't we get in trouble? It's your first day after all?" I ask like the dork I am.
"Not if we don't get caught" she smirks.
Before I can reply she grabs my hand and pulls me through the hallway and out the back doors of the school.
"Ok I guess I'm skipping school then" I chuckle.
"Yep" she says popping the last p with a mischievous grin on her face.
"Where are we going to go?"
"Just follow me, I know a place" I can't help but notice she's still holding my hand.
After about a 20 minute walk we stop under the old railway bridge. It hasn't been used for about 20 years.
"What the hell are we doing here?"
She doesn't answer she just drags me to the big patch of grass slightly to the left of the bridge. My fingers are still tingling from where she had been holding my hand and once she sits I'm eager to sit as close to her as I can without it being wired.
"So... What are we doing here?" I ask again.
She doesn't answer me, she just laughs. Boy this girl is confusing, I like it though.
"Why do you look so confused?" She asks, probably commenting on my scrunched together eyebrows.
"I don't know... You just confuse me I guess" I say honestly.
"How come?"
"Why did you want to skip school with me? What are we doing under a railway bridge? What is a beautiful girl like you doing talking to an average girl like me?" I don't stop to think about what I was saying and by the time I've said it I already wish I hadn't.
"You think i'm beautiful?" She asks looking me dead in the eyes.
I look down and play with my nails and can already feel my cheeks burning with embarrassment.
"Hey" she says whilst putting her finger softly under my chin, causing me to look at her. We stare at each other for what feels like forever. I get lost in her big beautiful eyes and don't even notice that they are getting closer. By the time I can focus her soft lips are on mine. A few seconds later she pulls away.
I sit there staring blankly. Confused as hell.
"...wh..what was that?"
"I just wanted to kiss you" she shrugs like it's the simplest thing in the world.
"O.. Oh. Fair enough" I say, blinking and trying to clear my head.
"You're cute when you're confused" she lets out.
I can't help but smile like an idiot.
"I have a feeling that won't be the last kiss of ours either Mitchie Torres."
She was right of course. After that day me and Alex where inseparable we learnt everything about each other. She soon discovered that I wasn't as shy as I appeared on that day, she learned that I was an overly confident dork and also that it was the thing she loved most about me. We would have sleep overs and stay up for hours talking about anything and everything.
I learnt that she too was gay and about 3 months after meeting her I plucked up the courage to ask her to be my girlfriend. She said yes of course and since then my whole world has been Alex. She came with me to my first audition and she's been to every one since, although nowadays I don't really audition. She is my confidence and without her I don't know what I'd do; she was woven into every detail of my life and it was perfect.
