Chapter 4 : Embarrassment Unlimited

917 Words
Leading the way to the Craft class, no discussion was made between us. Asher trailed lazily behind me, and when we entered the class, the teacher was already there. "You are late Miss Anna, Do you have an excuse?" Ohh no, I wasted much time at my locker talking to this jerk. Bowing my head I shook my head decline. But then, Asher spoke up "I am Sorry Mr... Uhmm" I looked up at Asher as he spoke, then ridiculously digging his pass permit and looking for something, I couldn't even tell what. He stared at it intended for a second, then he said "Mr. Richmond, if there is anybody you should punish, let me face it. I delayed Anna while she was heading to class. This is due to the fact that I am new to this school and so finding my way is still a major challenge to me". I widened my eyes hearing this, and pushing my hair from my face, to see Mr. Richmond's face, it was void, betraying no emotions. But then, he said, "Anna move to your seat, so we could continue". I smiled so brightly, and hurried to my Seat, behind a cardboard with brushes and pencils waiting to be wasted in paints. Asher still standing, moved to the teacher and presented his class permit, and was asked to head to his desk. But this time, the only available desk was the one beside Nancy. I rolled my eyes concentrating on my drawing. The class was going well and I was stuck to my painting trials, though not creative enough, when I heard giggles. That wasn't my problem, but the direction it came from. When I turned, I could see Nancy giggling like mad. I wondered what will make her be so nice and sweet, where as she was that arrogant little b***h. But, looking to her side, was Asher, saying something to her, I don't know, maybe jokes, and looking at her like she was a fine piece of embroidery. My heart melted for an instant but then, shaking it off at the same time. "Stop that crap, he is just a new student. You shouldn't be feeling this way." I whispered to myself heaving a sigh. When the Bell rang putting an end to the class, I walked out of the class and was on my way to the Eatery. The eatery was my favorite building of the school, not only because of the quality food and snacks sold there, but also of its large space, cleanliness it embodied. It was located at the second floor of our four story building school, and easily recognized because, at the top level of the door was Beautifully written "Food for one, Food for all" hahaha, I don't know who invented that sentence, but it always made me laugh nonetheless. Carrying a tray, I picked up a wrap of sandwich, an apple and an orange juice. This wasn't much, but i was watching my weight. I walked with my tray happy, and my stomach rumbling so much with hunger. Increasing my steps, I tripped on my lace and went flying downwards. The tray hitting the ground made a huge sound and cause everyone in there look at me from there meal. I heard some laughing and it made my eyes stink with unshed tears. At the corner of my eye, I caught Nancy and her friends accompanied by Asher snorting and then she said loud enough for me to hear "the little princess is all messy" and they burst out laughing. Then, came the Prince, Asher, leaving their company, in long strides, bending low, and asking in his hoarse voice "Are you alright? Nothing broken?" Realizing I still laid on the tiles of the canteen, I woke up "I am fine, Thanks for the concern". I picked up the tray and other snacks, placing them of the tray, I disposed it in the trash. Brushing away my clothes, I was about leaving when Asher held my hand, "Please wait, I can get you some more if you want and besides, you didn't get to have your meal". Shaking my head, I declined "It's okay, I can pass" but then my stomach seemed to go on its way, rumbling loud enough I had to go turn my head. "Your stomach seems to have a mind of its own, Come, I'll give you a treat". Sighing in reluctance, I followed him to have another meal. This time, choosing a Burger, and an apple juice, and him, a chocolate bar, with milkshake, I led the way to my favorite row. It was quite peaceful and i could see the rest of the hall from my position. Sitting, I held my burger and digging my teeth deep in it, I smiled. But then he I heard a rich laughter which I have actually grown use to by the day. "Thank you for accepting my treat", that was all the could say. Hmm, strange, opening my mouth with chunks of food in it, I said, "No, thank you for giving me a treat". "Anytime". Focusing on my meal, I finished, and sipped my drink. "You look beautiful while eating, Can I invite you for a date?, Like would you be interested?" looking at him, I blushed profusely. "I don't really know, but sure it's a nice idea". I smiled What a Beautiful start of the week. The rest of the day could not be any better.
