A week had passed since the incident, that happened with the girl in the hallway.
And honestly I was pissed. Pissed at the people who had uploaded the videos of me tormenting the poor girl, it showed that I was the bad one. And I was proud. Proud to be the one too teach her a lesson.
Poor girl, my ass.
But right now I wanted to get away from the weird fruity smell that invaded my nose. “Can you be quick with whatever you have to say?” I impatiently asked the man who sat on the comfy leather seat infront of me, only the big oak table separating us.
“Miss Celestina Vidal, you cant keep doing this, we may expel you this time.” The man in the suit, also known as Julian Romero the headmaster said whilst fixing his expensive blue checkered tie. “Oh please, I didn’t even do anything.” I scoffed, as I leaned back on the wooden chair which had been giving me aches from the past few minutes.
“This time you have not only bullied that girl but also told her too kill herself. Miss Vidal this issue may have turned into a something big if I hadn’t handled it well.” He said making me raise an eyebrow. “How so?” I questioned. “Her father had been promoted to a very high position in the law firm a day before yesterday, he also told me to expel you but I told him that you’d be suspended for a week.”
My mouth went agape.
The fuck? When did he- oh wait- her mother was rich divorced brat. She could have promoted him- fuck- Shit.. how could I forget that?
I sat up straighter, resting my hand on the table and gave him a firm nod. “Miss Vidal please co-operate otherwise you'll be expelled.” I nodded once again. With that I got up and exited his office.
I could feel myself burn in anger. Calm down. Fucking calm down.
Flora leaned against my locker. I stalked towards her and gave her a small smile. “Everything good?” She asked.
I nodded.
“Oh well, I just wanted to tell you that today I might skip lunch and also dad is coming too pick me up so you don’t have too drop me.” She spoke. “Alright.” I replied. She hummed and walked off towards Nick who was busy talking to his mates.
These past days Flora had been acting strange. She would scene zone me whenever I would message her. She would ignore my calls. She wouldn’t sit with me in the lunch time. I had stopped giving her rides to school and vice versa. What the hell is wrong with her?
Deciding I’ll confront her later so I just stood there with my back against my locker, drinking my iced tea. Ava came and hugged me. “Hi girl.”
“Hey, wassup?” I replied. “The sky.” She grinned. I gave her a duh look and said, “that joke has become too old.”
“How about the d-” Before she could finish her sentence I stopped her, “yeah I know, no need to tell.” I fake gagged. She smirked at me while she bit her bottom lip.
Soon the hallway became less chatty. The girls looked in the opposite direction. Ava’s eyes grew wide as she stared at something.
“Look at that.” Ava said suddenly. “Why should I?” I replied nonchalantly, not giving her any attention as I took a sip from my drink. “Tina just see, just look at him.” She said, her eyes fixed on the very same spot. Shaking my head, I finally turned around.
A group of students, nerds to be specific, stood near the other end of hallway. Two girls and three boys. Four of them stood facing the hallway but one had his back towards me.
“How are they so hot? Why are nerds always so hot Tina? But my standards cant stoop so low, eh.” Ava whined and I chuckled.
The girls were beautiful. One of them had a bob-cut hair style, her eyes were bright green, you could almost see the forest in them. The other one had wavy hair that rested against her back, her eyes were hazel. Both of the boys were equally handsome, tall and dark brown hair.
I shamelessly stared at them. As if sensing my stare, the wavy haired girl met my gaze and shifted uncomfortably in her spot. That’s the affect I have on people. I could see her breathe deeply. She spoke something to the group and immediately all of them turned around except the one who had his back towards me.
My left eyebrow rose. “Holy shit Tina, they are staring.” She exclaimed. Tuning her out, I continued too stare at them.
Turn around.
My prayers were soon answered when he turned around. It felt as if the time froze. I felt paralyzed. Various emotions filled my body as I gazed in his bright blue doey eyes.
I could hear Ava mumbling something but all I could see was his deep orbs. It felt as if I was swimming in the ocean.
My breath hitched.
His empty eyes bored into mine. Energy drained out of me. I felt myself become the vulnerable person I was before. The one who had gone through hell. Fuck.
The girl tugged his shirt gaining his attention. He tore his gaze away from me making me feel empty once again. He gently smiled at her, involuntarily I clenched my jaw.
My eyes didn’t move instead they drank him like he was a bottle of holy water.
The bell rang. The students walking towards there respectful classes. I just stood there.
What the hell just happened?.
His group walked pass me. I could feel myself shiver. Tina, breathe.
After a few minutes I regained myself and walked towards my first class. As I entered, my eyes darted towards an empty chair and to my luck it was just two rows behind him.
HIM.
To be honest the ongoing lecture was shitty just like the teacher.“Proceed to page 5.” She spoke, her long ankle length skirt looked like she was a grandma even though she was just in her mid thirties. Freak, I must say.“Psst.” The guy from behind me spoke. Ignoring, I kept my focus on the stupid book. “Psst, listen.” Shrugging him off once again, I kept my cool. He tapped his pen on my shoulder, “sexy just listen.”Turning around I saw Tyler Jones. The typical cliché boy who slept with every single girl. “The fuck is your problem?” I lowly hissed. “Give me a pen.”Scowling at him, I gave him a middle finger and turned towards the teacher.Her front was towards the board, she kept on writing and spoke at the same time, something about chemicals. “When you react nitric acid with calcium hydroxide it forms a compound called calcium nitrate and water. This reaction is a redox reaction and can be explosive at times.”“Pen, pen, pen.” He chanted like a pre-school kid. “Shut up Jones.” I
“Are you sure you don’t wanna join the cheer club?” Stacy asked.We all were seated with our food on the trays. “I don't know Stac, I have actually no idea.” I sighed. She took a sip of her cranberry juice, her eyes lingering at my face with confusion, “you were there it in the last year, why not now?"How could I tell her that I quitted cheer practice just too get in the skating club.“I’ll give it a thought.” I said making her smile.Flora was still nowhere seen, probably out there with that jerk, Nick.“Why are they so hot?” Ava questioned, resting her chin on her palms. “Who?” Marcus asked.“Them.” She pointed out to the table in the far corner towards the window. Marcus turned around. His face immediately turned into a frown. “The nerds?"“Yes, they all look so yummy.” She said dreamingly. He looked back at us with his frown deepened. “What’s with that look, Marcus?” I asked him. “They are fucking cheaters.”“How so?” I questioned. My eyes drifted at there table. One of the boy
Have you ever experienced that moment when you want to bash someone's head so hard until they bleed? Yeah that's how I felt right now.Looking at my Mathematics teacher, he wore a disappointed expression. “Look Celestina, I would be very straightforward with you, if you wont get good grades than you would never graduate.”Anything but a disappointed expression. I fucking hate it. It makes me feel low.I scoffed. “What do you want me too than?"“I suggest you too study. If you cant, than we can get you a tutor. We have excellent students who are tutoring for extra credit hours but you’ll have too figure out which one suits you better ” He said, making me roll my eyes in response. “No thankyou, I don't want any of your pathetic help.”“Celestina I suggest you too co-operate with me and also fix your manners. If you cant than I have no choice but too call your mother for this issue.” He ended his sentence. I was fucking seething. How dare he drag mom into this. It’s my fucking life not h
Sitting in the garden with a book in my hand and a pair of airpods plugged in my ears was the best combination.Hometown smile by Bahjat bursting in my ears.My eyes kept on scanning the lines until it was dark enough to go back inside. Lifting myself off the swing, I hurriedly went inside towards the kitchen.Skipping through some cupboards, I came across my fathers favorite cupboard.He used to lock his food in it since me and my mother always liked to steal and than devour it. He had the best taste in everything. His cooking was just extra. Sighing I brushed past it. Sadness washing over my features once again.Grabbing a pack of Doritos and a glass of cranberry juice, I strided back to my room. I sat down on the overused bed making myself comfortable in it. Placing my laptop on my lap, I played an episode of Stranger Things. If you haven’t watched that show than you live under a rock, my friends. Munching on my Doritos I started to watch it. Hours later, I had finished the whole
A week had passed in a blur. In which either I was on the bed or I was in the bathroom with my head in the toilet. Yuck. Yeah you guessed it right, I was throwing up everything I was eating. I felt great. My mother hadn’t come back home, she just texted me saying that she was on a business trip with the client. Just like always she wasn't there to treat my disease.Sighing, I got off from my car and leaned against it for a minute, my head still spinning from all the vomiting. I hadn’t ate much since my stomach was contracting painfully from inside but I had to endure it. Endure all of it just like before. Before I could walk, a pair of arms engulfed me in a tight hug making me flinch hard. They immediately retracted their arms and stood infront of me. “I’m sorry!" I looked at the intruder and saw Flora standing with a frown on her face. “Girl, you look horrible.” She fake gagged. “I know that already.” I sighed and grabbed my backpack from the passenger seat. “Rough weekend?"We bot
“This project will consist of partners. I’ll be assigning the partner you’ll work with and I don't want any complaints, am I understood?” The teacher also known as Henry addressed to the class. A chorus of yes’s were heard.I took a side glance at Zachariah who was busy writing something on his notebook. He looked extra handsome today. He wore a pair of beige dress-pants and a white collared shirt which was folded up to his elbows. A silver chain hanging from his neck. Three rings rested on both of his hands and a black beaded charm bracelet.Are nerds that hot?His face looked so innocent. The glasses rested on the bridge of his nose. His soft pink lips were turned into a pout. Extra delicious. His hair was messily disheveled, draped on his forehead and eyes.Illegal.“Anna and Tyler,”“Cristiano and West,”The teacher called out names. Groans were heard in the room but my eyes were fixed on something special. And that special was him. Am I getting obsessed? Yes.“Linda and Bella,”
All my life I was running in circles. Running away from everything but still spinning back to the very same dark spot which had been swallowing me up from inside.But life has some unexpected turns and twists. Some are bad, some are good. The good ones only come when you pass the bad ones.Right now I stood infront of the library, hoping I could keep my headaches at bay. The migraines were coming back and I definitely was not looking forward to it.Sighing, I strided inside looking for the same dirty blonde head but to my avail there was no such head. My eyes trailed towards my watch that read 12:45. Was I late for the meetup? Yes. If you ask me the reason, I wont say it. Looks like he ditched me. Expected. A groan erupted from my mouth as I walked too the nearest table. Plopping myself down, I rested my head on the table. Closing my eyes, my mind drifted back to the dark hole. A hole from where you could never come out even if you tried.Life is entertaining too some.A flash of pa
The rest of the day had ended in a blur. I walked pass the streets, my mind drifted towards the last encounter with him.If you’re wondering where my car is; than let me rewind a bit back, some bitches who disliked me and my guts ruptured my tires. Yeah and that’s how I ended up here in the rain soaking from head to toe.Life is way too unpredictable. I was freaking cold. My numb feet led me through the neighborhood where the richest resided. Strands of hair were stuck on my face. My clothes drenched which sticked to me like a second skin and the skirt wasn't helping me either today. Lucky me today. The dark patch had been giving out a heavy amount of water. Trees looked like they’ll fall at any minute. Here, in LA the storms were bad. Very bad. Taking a few more steps I halted when I saw a familiar face talking too another.The person was smiling. A beautiful smile.Blowing out a shuddered breath, I continued my walk until my eyes met his. There he stood with a little girl in his
