Crossing Paths Again

Chapter 1

Andrea's POV

What do I do in this kind of situation?

A group of people is circling around me, eyes fill with curiosity. The words they want to say are spilling from the emotion in their eyes. Who are you?  

I brushed my black and straight long hair using my fingers and fixed my window bangs. Mannerism.

Ethan roughly coughs, attracting their attention. The girl with dark hair is the first one who snapped back and asked.

"Who are you?" she humbly asked.

"I... am Andrea William." I said and gave her a sweet smile.

They looked at each other and exchanged words using their eyes. Friends thing I guess. Then they looked at me and Ethan.

Silence. 

Silence.

Silence.

I can feel my ears ring. I peep at my watch on my wrist. 7:00 AM  I still have one hour to find my classroom.

Ethan breaks the silence and talks.

"I am helping her to find her classroom number." He said and gazed at his friends watching their reactions. He then leaned to me and whispered.

"They could be judgy sometimes. I bet they are thinking you are my girlfriend." He whispered and chuckled against my ear. His chuckle tickled my ears making me laugh and lean backwards. Seriously. Well I can't blame them, Ethan really looks like a chicboy.

The moment I stared at Ethan's friends they all looked dumbfounded. I waved my left arm in front of them to take them back to reality. I observed them. The blond one is tall just a few inches smaller than me. She has green magical eyes, a small nose, and red thin lips. The girl with dark hair is the smallest one in their group but she has a pretty mature body. The twins looked the same- red lips, brown eyes, thick eyebrows and big nose. Their only difference is their height and haircut. The taller one has light brown long thick wavy hair and his stares are cold, the other one is just an inch smaller and has a kind smile as if it is just okay to talk to him anytime, and he has short spiked hair. The guy with blue hair is tall the same as Ethan, he looks... pretty. Piercing eyes- color blue the same as his hair color, cunning smile, small nose and red lips. How can a man be so pretty? I stare at him a little longer.

"Andrea. Hey Andrea." I moved my eyes from the blue haired guy that is staring at me weirdly to Ethan, he's calling me.

"W-What is it?." I asked.

"They will come with us to your classroom" He said softly, looking concerned, I wonder why.

I smiled at them which they returned to me. Ethan led the way and we followed him, while walking they talked about random stuff, 'What is your first subject?', 'Do you know Sydney?', 'I want to eat macaroni' and many more. Suddenly a strong wind invaded the hallway through an open window,  the wind was rough and it blew my hair away. I gathered my hair in my right hand while my left hand held the bag in my shoulder tightly.

Then for the worst possible moment the bell rang! Indicating that it's time for students to go to their classrooms. Oh god, I don't know mine! 

But it looks like I am not alone. Some students panicked and ran to find their classrooms, but Ethan and his friends were calm and continued walking. But this time they walked faster, I guess this school is pretty strict. I keep up with their pace. 

I walked faster, then I spotted a familiar but not so familiar face in the crowds. I can't look away. The moment the guy will walk pass me, my world turns into a slow motion, it all turns to black. I felt like my movements become slow and I can't see the people around me just him. We locked eyes for a second before everything came back to normal when he walked past me. Eyes widened with the sudden happenings. I quickly turn to my back to see him but I can't find him in the crowded hallway. W-What did just happened?

My heart is beating so fast, causing a pain in my chest. I controlled my breathing while thinking about what just happened.
