Chapter Three
I kept my head down for the whole hour I was in Mike’s class room. He introduced himself, told everyone his name and a bit about himself. He explained that he moved here from Hawaii, a fact that made a few of my friends look over at me. I just gave them a shrug and acted like I had no idea who this guy was.
I had a re-read through my time’s table, checking to see if I had ‘’Mr Lupus’’ for any of my other subjects and was annoyed to see, I had. How did I not notice this before? I had him for English as well. f*****g f**k fuckery!
Then, when the ‘’ask me a question’’ bit came in a lame attempt for the other students to get to know him, I kept my mouth shut. I knew enough about him... Too much even.
Soon enough though, the bell rang and I grabbed my stuff and hurried out of the class room before he could say anything or even stop me.
‘Hey, wait up!’. I turned around and saw Raven calling after me, I stopped and waited for her to catch up. She was out of breath by the time she did. Damn, that girl was unfit… Nah, honestly, she wasn’t. She was first in our class with gym. Really sporty and athletic.
‘What’s up?’ I asked when she finally got to me.
‘Where’s the fire? You raced out of there before the hell even finished ringing’ i just shrugged. ‘Everything ok?’ Raven was one of my best friends but she was also my closest.
‘Yeah, everything’s fine. Just getting to my next lesson’. We compared our time’s table and saw we both had art together next. Hooking each other’s arms, we headed down the stairs to the art floor.
‘That new teacher is fit or what!?’ I just rolled my eyes.
‘You think so?’ She hmmm’ed.
‘Yeah, he’s so hot! I wonder if he’s married’. That was a typical ‘’Raven’’ comment for her to make. She was obsessed with guys, I wouldn’t use the work Slag but... Well, she was. She always had a different boyfriend... And by boyfriend I mean f**k buddy, But I love her.
‘I dont know, but he’s a teacher so behave’. She nudged my arm and laughed. I faked my laugh because I really didn’t the idea of my best friend pursuing Mike was funny at all.
‘Aww, you’re no fun, Come on’. She pulled me in to the Art room just in time for the start of the lesson, but no matter how hard I tried, I just couldn’t focus.. All around the room I could hear whispers of ‘’How hot is the new teacher?’’, Including Raven talking to one of her other friends about him… she wasn’t really going to pursue Mike.. was she? ...
