First Love (Finished)

Chapter 4: Seats

Belle stare into the writings on the book, not really understanding anything on it. She's on the school cafeteria and everyone is noisy and busy doing their thing, for her, she's alone again and she doesn't mind it. She would've prefer stocking her ears with an earphone but she doesn't have one and she has to buy another one when she got out the school later. She opened a piece of chocolate and began nibbling on it. She loves chocolate though it doesn't add to her weight.

Someone sat beside her. She looked at the intruder and saw Nathan.

"What's up?" he asked cheerfully.

Students around grew quiet as Chase followed by Matt sat in front of her and Nathan. 

"There's no seats available." Matt blurted suddenly.

Nathan chuckled, "Man, you sound defensive."

"Aw, shut up." Matt glared at him.

She looked at the two and at Chase. "What are you doing here?"

"As Matt said, no seats available." Chase shrugged.

She cocked an eyebrow. "You could have sit with other people. Not me."

"Actually," Nathan said casually. "We weren't really going to sit-"

Matt stopped him with a punch on the arm. "Just eat, all of you."

They all ate silently. Belle looked at them with a confused expression and then looked at her book nibbling on the chocolate.

"So, Isabelle, aren't those chocolates gonna make you fat?" Nathan asked after a few minutes of silent. "Ow!" he shouted and glared at Matt. "If you won't stop hurting me, I'll court Isabelle!"

Matt raised an eyebrow at him and glared but he blushed before looking away.

"How did you know my name?" Belle asked.

"I did." Chase raised his hand. "I hacked on the school's data base." he grinned.

"Ah..." she said. "Thought I could only do that."

"What!" the three shouted.

She grinned at them showing fully carved dimples. They were dazzled and blinked back looking away.

"You hacked the school's data base before?" Chase whispered at her.

She nodded. "Yeah," she looked on her watch. "I have to go." she stood up and walked away.
