Hey peoples! Here's chapter 3, it's longer then the last one :) So enjoy- Red
Chapter 3
Fiona smiled sweetly and replied, "I'll see you after school by the flag pole." And walked away. Just before she turned the corner she called back, "Remember the flag pole Alex, don't forget."
Alex just stood there watching her go fearing that his troubles were just beginning.
"So, Fiona... Who the hell is she?" Tom asked.
"Umm, well she's..." *Ding, ding, ding*
"Saved by the bell, I'll catch you later Alex. And I expect to hear the story behind Fiona during football practice" Tom called as he jogged off to first hour.
Alex turned from his locker and started walking off towards English, today they were watching Tom Sawyer since they had finished the book over the weekend. As he entered the classroom and walked to the back of the room where his desk was located Alex heard his classmates already gossiping about Fiona. Just like a pack of wolves Alex thought, they never rest. Though hearing all of his classmates talk about Fiona Alex couldn't help but think of her himself. There was just something different about her. She'd grown in some way, Alex just couldn't figure out how exactly.
"Take your seats, please." There was the shuffling of bodies as the teacher, Mrs. Herman walked in and took control of the class. "Everyone before we start Tom Sawyer I would like to introduce our newest student, Fiona White."
Alex's head suddenly jerked up from his desk to see none other than Fiona herself standing next to Mrs. Herman at the front of the room. Of course she'd have to be in my class Alex thought groaning, his fears confirmed. It made sense, it all made sense now except why.
"Well, I'm sure you'll have time for proper introductions later, for now let's get started. Kenneth if you could grab the lights and Fiona it looks like there's an empty desk next to Alex in the back." Mrs. Herman said.
Alex did a quick sweep of the class and sure enough the seats surrounding him were the only ones empty. Of course no one would want to sit next to the druggie Alex thought. As Fiona took her seat Alex didn't even bother to look at her, instead he pretended to be engrossed with the movie that was starting. When in actuality, he was silently yelling every curse word he had ever learned toward MI6 and Fiona... which was a lot.
The bell for second hour rang and Alex rushed off from English towards Chemistry to try to escape her. He had just sat down in the back of the room waiting for class to start when he started to witness Fiona's true colors emerging. Alex was staring at the reflection of his classmates through the window and saw Fiona enter talking to Stacey. Stacey was the queen of Brookland High. She was captain of the basketball, volleyball, and softball team. With her fit physique, gorgeous body, brains, and charm she had claimed her place at the top of the social chain. Everybody knew who Stacey Sterns was whether they wanted to or not. So seeing Fiona walk in with Stacey Alex figured out right away that Fiona had already become a part of the "it" crowd.
"So, we're having this party at my house Friday night and like everyone is going to be there. It will be a great place for you to meet all the girls and maybe even land yourself a hot hunk." Stacey said grinning.
"I don't know Stacey..." Fiona said taking her seat next to Alex
"Oh come on! You have to be there, it will be like so much fun, I promise. And I promise that you won't have to socialize with any losers... or druggies." Stacey said begging while directing a glare at Alex.
Fiona turned to look at Alex who continued to stare out the window, pretending to not hear them. "Well ok." Fiona said finally, smiling.
"Ok?! Great, I'll give you details later at lunch. See ya!" Stacey said before rushing off to her own class. "Oh, and word of advice don't trust or even talk to Rider... He's not he sorts you want to be socializing with." She called back while walking out the door.
Fiona turned towards Alex, gave him a fake look of disgust and then scooter her desk father away from him and started to talk to those around her. Great, Alex thought, she fits right in.
The rest of the day went exactly like first and second hour. Alex soon discovered that Fiona had the exact same schedule as him, and since no one ever chose to sit by him Fiona was seated next to Alex in every class. If having to sit by the same person every hour wasn't bad enough, try sitting next to a person that ignores you and the only time they do acknowledge you is to try to get on your nerves, that is what sitting next to Fiona was like. So by the end of the day Alex was on his last straw, and doing everything in his power not to explode.
"Hey Alex, you ready for football?" Tom called walking towards his locker after the last bell rang, signaling the end of the school day.
"Yes! Gods, after a day like today I need to get some of this frustration out before I snap." Alex replied while slamming his locker.
"Well then let's go!" Tom shouted, grabbing his football and running off to the locker room with Alex following close behind.
"...and she treats me like scum." Alex told Tom while stretching on the field.
"Wait so let me get this straight, the new and incredibly hot chick-"
"Fiona." Alex corrected.
"The new and incredibly hot chick named Fiona, is some rich snob you met two years ago on a mission and now she's here at our school. You don't know why she's here but she's here. And she's in all you classes. And she's already as popular as the Queen herself. And she treats you like scum... Did I miss anything?"
"No that about sums it up, though I do-"
"Rider, stop talking and get your butt over here. Your girlfriend is waiting for you on the sidelines." Coach Thompson yelled at Alex.
"Since when in hell did you get a girl? And why didn't you tell me about her" Tom asked clutching his heart in fake hurt.
"As far as I know I don't have a girl." Alex replied getting up. "Oh shit..."
"What?" Tom asked. He looked where Alex was facing and saw a fuming Fiona tapping her foot and staring daggers at them. "Haha, dude you have the luck of the devil."
"Tell me about it." Alex grumbled and slowly started to walk towards the sidelines. The closer he got the more he could tell Fiona was beyond mad, she was pissed.
"Where where you?" Fiona yell-whispered as soon as Alex got to her side, grabbing his arm and pulling him off the field.
"Hey, let go of me." Alex said while jerking his arm free when they reached the side of the bleachers. "And what the hell are you talking abou- ohhh shit."
"Oh, oh?! Gods, you're an idiot. I've been waiting at the flag pole for over 20 minutes. Stacey even offered to take me home but I had to say no since I don't even know where 'home' is. Gods, you know how embarrassing that is?"
"First of all, I never said I'd meet you by the flag pole you just assumed I would. And secondly, it's not my fault your precious reputation got damaged. I mean seriously, what kind of an idiot doesn't know where their own house is?" Alex replied angrily.
"Well I've never been to your house before have I?" Fiona said fuming.
"My house?" Alex asked suddenly confused. "Why would you be at my-"
"Oh, well if you would have remembered to meet me at the flag pole I could have told you how Aunt Jones decided it'd be best if I stayed with you."
"Oh, hell no."
"Oh, hell yes." Fiona said smirking.
