In Denial

Chapter 18

The same guy I was talking to earlier came and sat beside us in drama. I have never seen him in here before.

“Hello.” I said giving him a confused look.

“You don’t take this class.” Mel stated from beside me.

“I know I am new here.” He said and oh my, he is from Australia.

“Well hi, I am Ally and this is Mel.” I said moving aside so he could see her.

“Hello my name is Dylan.” He said flashing us a smile and showing us his perfect teeth.

“Well Dylan nice to meet you.” I said.

“Yeah. You too.  So I was just wondering if maybe you would like to show me around some time I mean I don’t know around here that much so…” He paused, waiting for a reaction.

Mel gave me a slight nudge to tell me to go for it.

“Of course I would love to. Here’s my number.” I smiled writing down my digits and handing them to him.

“Thanks it means a lot.” he smiled again.

Then Mrs Finn decided to make an appearance. For some odd reason she has been trying to find ways to get out of the classroom lately. Especially after our talk about a month ago.

And whenever she was in the classroom she sat staring at me intently not even paying attention to her class.

It was kind of uncomfortable…OK really uncomfortable.

I need to find out what is going on because I am going to lose my mind.

“OK class we have a new member today his name is Dylan and he is all the way from Australia.” she beamed.

He gave a shy wave to everyone and blushed at the attention he was getting.

“Dylan?” I asked.

“Why did you move from Australia and come here of all places?” I asked as soon as we got out of boring drama and we are heading to lunch.

“What do you mean?”

“Well the weather is really crap.” I stated truthfully.

“Well, it was a lot of reasons actually. My mom got promoted and is now boss of her company’s UK firm.” He explained.

“Oh that’s cool.” I said opening the canteen doors.

I have got to say this guy is quite no! Very hot! He is like perfect. And he is talking to me.

We lined up to get whatever slop they are serving us today.

Jason came up beside us and cleared his throat while I was in the middle of making small talk with Dylan.

“What do you want Jason.” I said bitterly.

“You always sit with us at lunch and we changed tables so I came to get you.” He stated.

“I haven’t sat at your table for a few weeks now if you haven’t noticed, Jason.”

“I know but we are on talking terms again so I thought that maybe you would like to join us again.”

“Um… No thanks I’m fine sitting where I was sitting.” I said.

With that I picked up my yellow gloop and walked over to the table I have been sitting at for the last month.

Dylan and Mel followed.

“Who was that dude?” Dylan asked.

“That was my prick of a brother!” Mel answered.
