Brielle’s POV
My mouth widened with a smile when I saw Alice, her hand was tightly holding her school bag across her back. “Alice!” I called, and her face broke into a smile when she saw me, I waved at her and jogged over to meet her.
“Hey! How are you doing?” I asked and she chuckled.
“Great great! You know our project group stuff, we are supposed to be working on it in the lab today” Alice said and I whined.
“Oh that’s burdensome, I need to drop some books in my locker and pick new ones,” I said and Alice chuckled, we went over to my locker and I dropped the book I was holding.
“So how was your night?” she asked as we walked to the lab, I shrugged and tilted my head to look at her
“It was good, yours?” I asked while she opened the door to the lab and we both went inside.
“It was great” she replied with a wide smile on her face and I nodded. I met everyone in the lab ready for the group project and I quickly joined my group.
We were busy trying to get some work done when I suddenly heard someone chuckle, I looked up to see the girls whispering at each other “I have never seen someone as beautiful as them, they look inhumanly gorgeous, like a Greek god. I’m short of words” one of the girls said and they squeaked.
“The class turned upside down when they came in yesterday, it was so fantastic! I almost forgot I have a boyfriend” the other one said and they chuckled.
“I don’t really see what’s so great about them, well yeah they are hot but that’s it, nothing more or less,” I said, and the lab was suddenly quiet, I saw every eye on me and I thought about how I should have kept quiet and keep my thoughts to myself
“Are you blind? How many times do you get to see such charming men like that? It looks like they walked out of Vogue magazine, you should do something to your eyes” another girl said, and they all chuckled and I shrugged.
“Hey! What’s the noise going on around here all about!” Hayley, one of the snobbish bitches in school, who hated me at first sight for no reason, decided to intervene.
Her skirt was shorter than the ruler most teachers used for drawing short lines in their notebooks, and her boobs were so big, yet she dared to actually wear a crop top and boldly flaunt them with the words 'Twin cherries' written across in bold letters.
She was EXTREMELY beautiful like most girls in our class, but her attitude was ugly.
“She was talking about the Torres brothers who joined us yesterday, she said they are just hot nothing special,” the first girl said, whispering the last part and Hayley turned to look at me
She glared at me and if looks could kill I would be six feet under, I rolled my eyes and ignored her, trying to focus on what I was doing, but she swiftly moved closer to me and I sighed, I had no choice but to look at her
“How dare you say such things about them? You are practically tasteless” she said and I heard the students snicker, I am the type that avoids troubles but when one knocks at my door, I open my arms and welcome it in.
“The last time I checked you weren’t related to any of them, and they don’t even know you, save your saliva, Hayley. News flashed no one cares about you, queen bee” I said, and her eyes widened with shock, she didn’t expect such a statement from me and I didn’t feel sorry either.
“How dare you?! You dare talk to me in that tone, I am going to show you who I am, and one more wrong move towards the Torres brothers, I will show you why I am called the queen bee of this school” Hayley said, and I chuckled at her futile attempt to look scary.
“I have no business with them so, scurry off,” I said and turned back to concentrate on what I was doing, she was about to step closer when Alice came in between the two of us
“We are in the lab right now, and I think it’s unwise to fight in the lab,” Alice said and Hayley looked around, she huffed and walked away.
The rest of the group work was uneventful and after several hours we came out of the school compound and headed to the car park
“Do you know you got some nerves” Alice suddenly said, halting my steps
“What nerves?” I asked, furrowing my brows at her.
“Do you know who Hayley is, she is the leader of the school beauty queen group called Pixies, and she has a lot of students who practically worship her, I think you should be careful the way you talk to her, anyone will do anything to join her group?” Alice said, and I gave her a boring look, I was uninterested in whatever she is babbling
“She came to me first so, I think she should be scared you know,” I said, shrugging and I suddenly heard Alice gasp “hey! What’s up?!”
“Take a look! Look at them, the Torres brothers” Alice said almost squealing, and I rolled my eyes.
“Not you too” I groaned, and I suddenly locked eyes with one of the brothers. Liam, the flirty one.
My heart skipped a beat and I felt a sudden strong magnetic pull towards him, and it was weird, he started moving in our direction and I hope he doesn’t talk to me. He halted his steps when he was a few inches away from us and I saw Alice smiling brightly at him, trying to gain his attention.
“Hey, Liam! You were so cool yesterday when you introduced yourself in front of the class, I am…” Alice's words got stuck in her throat when she noticed Liam’s eyes were on me.
“Hey! I am Liam, what’s your name?” he asked with his hand raised for a handshake, and for some odd reason I found myself rooted to the ground unable to move as those beautiful deadly eyes stared deep into my soul
