*Jacies POV*
Once I made it to the class I bolted to the back of the room and sat down. Ive learned that the "bad boys" of the school wont pick on me. They keep to themselves and they also sit in the back of class so its safest to sit closest to where they are to avoid the rest easier since everyone is afraid of them.
I pull my stuff out of my bag that might be needed for English class and set it down and grab my book ive been reading and start reading it when someone walks into the room right as the tardy bell goes off. I peak up from my book and notice its the bad boys Casey and Jason. Then I notice a third boy with them. He was very good looking with dark brown hair cut shorter and styled messily like he just woke up, entrancing brown eyes, and lips that look so soft and inviting. Im not even sure where these thoughts are coming from. I don't usually stare at anyone this long but how good he looks put me in a trance. That is until they turn to walk to their seats. I had quickly tucked my head back into my book in hopes he didnt catch me.
"Hey" I heard someone say beside me. I figured they were talking to someone else next to them so I just continued reading my book. Then I heard them say "hi" again. I still kept reading my book until it disappears. I looked over at the new kid with shock until I come to my senses and start to get nervous. The guys he hangs out with dont bully me but I guess that doesnt mean he's not a bully. I look up at him while he stares at me.
"Can I pl..pl.. Please have my my book back?" I ask wearily. Afraid of what he will do to me. But to my surprise he sets it on my desk.
"I was talking to you when I said hey" he states. "My name is Avery." His voice is deep and hypnotic. But before I can respond the teacher thankfully walks in saving me from that conversation because I havent had a conversation with someone my age in quite some time.
"Sorry im running late, had something to deal with. My name is Mr. Mccarthy and obviously I will be you English teacher". He continued to talk but I just tuned him out. I looked out the corner of my eye and see Avery still looking at me. Once the teacher gives us our homework and sits at his desk Avery turns to me. I start getting nervous again.
"So I heard your name is Jacie." He states which surprises me that anyone knows my name. I just shake my head up and down. So he continues "I was the one you bumped into in the hallway." I started freaking out about whats going to happen when we arent in this room. I never knew who I ran into.
"Im sssorry, I.i.i didnt mmmean to" I stammer out quick glancing at him. He just chuckles at me which scares me even more.
"Ya I heard you say sorry the first time" he chuckles again. "No need to keep apolgizing. Im glad I bumped into a beautiful girl when I step foot into school." My cheeks heat up at his words. Nobody has ever said I was beautiful. I scoot further down into my seat glancing at the clock. Only 5 minutes left till next class and I can get out of this awkward situation.
"What class do you have next?" Avery asks.
"Math" I quietly reply back. His face looks sad at that which confuses me.
"I have history next. That sucks we dont have next period together but maybe we can sit together at lunch" he replies. I dont answer him as the bell rings. I shoot up from my seat and rush out the door with Avery calling my name after me but I just keep running. I dont need anyone bothering me. I just want to finish this last year of school without interruptions so when I turn 18 and finish my last year i can run away from this town.
I dont stop my fast pace till I got into math class and find a seat in the back. I was lucky to not have the popular kids in my first class but that luck ran out when I sat down in my seat and felt something wet on my butt. And laughter filled the room. I knew they put something wet on my seat. When I stood up I noticed my pants were covered in red.
"Eww the nerd had her period." Brittany, the head cheerleader, shouted to make sure everyone heard her and so they can look and laugh at me. I left as the teacher was walking into the room.
"Where do you think your going, class is just starting" my math teacher said.
"She had her period all over he chair, she needs to go clean up" Brittany stated trying to stifle a laugh and the teacher just nodded to me and I took off. I went to the bathroom and pulled extra clothes from my back pack being prepared because this isnt the first time something like this happened. I changed quick and sat in the stall quietly crying. When I couldnt cry anymore I got up wiped my face and headed out. I was too busy looking down that I bumped into something hard for the second time this morning and again I stumbled and almost fall but someone catches my arm quick and stables me.
"Woah you should watch where your going" his sexy voice said. I didnt need to look up to know who it was. His voice is engrained in my head.
"Im sor" I was about to apologize but he just puts his finger to my lips to shush me.
"I dont need to hear that your sorry for a third time today. You can bump into any time you want" Avery said in a teasing voice. Then he puts his hand under my chin and lifts my head up. Im hoping my face doesnt give away that I was crying but by the look of his face he can tell. "Why are you crying?" He asks, his voice sounding concerned.
"I I i... I tripped over my shoe laces and fell and hhhurt my foot" I whispered hoping he believed me so I didnt have to relive that embarrassing moment in class to a very attractive guy. "I hhhave to ggget to class. Iiim late" I breath out.
"Do I get to have the pleasure of eating lunch with you?" He asks his eyebrows furrowing.
"Ssure" I state just to get him to let me go knowing I won't be going to the lunch room with the rest of the kids because I don't have any money for food and im not allowed to bring food from home.
"Ok cool" Avery says smirking. Even when he smirks he still looks breathtakingly gorgeous. I just nod and he steps aside to let me walk around and I rush back to class. I know one things for sure, I need to stay away from him. Not only would he be putting attention on me at school but if my step dad knew I was talking to some one, especially a guy, I will get a good beating and I dont want to give him another reason to beat me.
