Sheckler
Her hand connected with my cheek, taking me by surprise.
"You didn't expect that, did you?"
Holy s**t!
My hand immediately reached my right cheek to soothe the stinging.
My assaulter gave me a satisfied smirk and walked away, her almost bronze hair bouncing on her shoulders.
Why the hell Am I thinking about her friggin' hair.
Face palm.
Mentally.
I deserve it even though I have just received one, from a newbie.
I was just messing with her, and I almost died laughing after she flipped Jessica off.
Even I believe, Jessica is irritating. But when this bronze girl called me an asshole, I just couldn't take it.
Maybe she is new that is why she doesn't know that nobody messes with me.
I am respected in school, like a god.
This. This Greek god of a body is perfect, not even a scratch has been received from the numerous fights I've been into,and never taken a single hit.
Like ever and here I am today with a bruised cheek.
I was fuming, even more because I let her go that easily.
I mean she just walked away.
I am gonna get back to you, bronze. Just wait.
"Earth to Patrick." My best friend Chase, mumbles.
"She just.....how dare she?" I was fuming.
No one had the right to touch me without my permission.
It was a big no! No!
"Dude, good luck with your first ever bruise." Chase chuckled.
Yeah I never had one even as a child.
No, I am not any superhuman, if that's what you were thinking.
Its just that my parents were extra careful with me.
Chase nudged me and brought me out of my head.
There were murmurs around me, some guys were trying to control their laughs and girls were giving each other shocked glances.
But one glare from me sent them scurrying away. Everybody knew the consequences of messing with me, I wasn't all harsh but I had a rapport of being The Invincible, and I am in no mood of letting it go down the drain anytime sooner.
"Whatever she did, she is still hot, she is something, even guys think twice before trying to touch you, hell include me too in the list but....but a chick." And THEN he started howling with laughter.
And I heard somewhere that best friends are supposed to support you.
"So you already planning to get back at her?" Chase asked c*****g his brows as I didn't reply to his insult.
Here it comes, Chase knows me so well. I never let my enemies walk free. That's not my style.
But before I could answer, the bell rang. My first class was maths. Nothing to worry about, maths is like counting fingertips for me.
Okay, counting is a part of maths, but just for the sake of enhancing the sentence.
Almost everything came easy to me, being amazing at academics wasn't hard for me. Sports, Dance, Visual Arts, I excelled in everything.
I entered Mrs. Jakey's class, in my usual way.
Late.
I gave her a 2000 watt smile and she returned it back, receiving shocked looks from the class.
Yeah, somebody please add Charming Personality to my resume.
I can melt girls with a single look.
Not to forget that Chase had the same qualities.
One of the reasons he was my best friend.
I was searching around the almost filled classroom to find a place to sit, when my gaze collided with a pair of vibrant green eyes.
The New Girl.
Bronze.
She was the only one with an empty desk beside, seeing no other way I moved in her direction, not dropping the eye contact.
She stared back with the same intensity.
Doesn't she get intimidated by me?
We finally quit our glare game when Mrs. Jakey cleared her throat, giving us a curious look.
"So class, as I was saying we have a new student with us. Ms. Swan would you like to introduce yourself?" She looked straight at bronze.
"No!" Bronze deadpanned.
Feisty.
She is too feisty for her own good.
Half of the class gasped and a look of shock crossed Mrs. Jakey's eyes but she quickly recovered.
"YOU will have to, Anyways, unless you want detention Miss." She snarled.
Bronze released a frustrated sigh before getting up.
Well, she had a nice ass too.
Face palm.
Again.
But mentally.
Don't want another bruise on this million dollar face.
"I am Phyre Swan, moved to Huntsville from Texas, yesterday. Thank YOU."
Hmmm, her name actually compliments her personality, Phyre like fire. Good.
The teacher gave a quick nod and motioned Phyre to sit. As her body started bending, I saw this as an opportunity, I pulled her chair back and her ass hit the flat floor.
She gasped and the class was already doubling up in laughter, especially the girls, they gave me thumbs up.
She on the other hand had a death glare for me.
"What happened, class?" Mrs. Jakey inquired.
"Phyre, here attacked the floor." One of the girls squeaked.
"Backwards." I added making the class howl like bears.
She stood up, dusting her ass and pulled the chair back to sit. Her cheeks were bright red in embarrassment.
Way to go, Patrick.
I moved closer to her ear to warn her, but inhaled her cinnamon and chocolate-ty fragrance which made my head swoon.
Shit, s**t s**t. What just happened?
I shook my head making the feeling subside and moving closer to her again.
"Payback's a b***h, Chica." I added the Spanish for intimidation. "The one you've met just yet."
She turned around so quickly, I am sure she would've sprained that neck of hers.
With this action, her hair touched my face, forcing me to inhale that chocolate of a smell.
Oh god! Not again.
But I wanted to take in more and more and more and...well you would have guessed my next words already.
All she gave was a death glare. It made her green eyes enlarge and her nose to puff a bit.
A deadly combination.
Ugh shut up, Sheckler.
"Its just the beginning of the story bronze, we have a long way to go." I gave her my best cheesy smile.
And then the bell rang. She, without giving me second look, started gathering her stuff, which made me notice her hand, she had a heart tattooed at the place where we can feel our pulse.
Interesting, that's rather creative.
Then she started moving towards the door, half of the class was out by now, not a shock because most of them suck at maths.
I moved close behind her, waiting for a moment to attack.
What? I had to get back at her. I won't miss any opportunity.
As she neared the door, I kept my right leg right in front of hers, making her stumble outside.
I was waiting for the sound of the her body hitting the floor but none came.
I walked forward to see her sprawled in Chase's arms.
Yeah, I forgot that Chase waits for me outside the class as we have next period, history together.
Phyre:1 and Patrick: still 1.
"Whoa whoa, beautiful." Chase pulled her up making sure she was intact. "Does it hurt....you know after falling."
Both her and me gave him a confused look.
She did not fall.
"Especially from Heaven." He added.
Yeah, flirty much?
Phyre just rolled her eyes and said thanks to him, to which Chase picked and kissed the top of her hand. As their little moment finished she turned around to face me.
"I was going to give you a nasty look but I see you already have one." She said and stomped away.
She is too fast with these quirky one liners.
"Aww man that's gotta burrrrn." Chase stretching on the r's, patted my back.
"Even more when you realize her name is Phyrrrrre. She can burn you man."
Not when I know how to play with fire.
