Faking Her Way Through

Chapter 3

Ashlee takes a huge breath and then lets it out with a huge huff.

Ashlee's POV
You can do this. You can sit with Xavier and who ever he sits with you'll be fine.

The bell rings, letting everyone know the next class has begun. Ashlee quickly makes her way out of the bathroom and sprints to the cafeteria. As she runs about to reach the closing doors to the cafeteria, she collides with something; more like a someone. Ashlee looks up to see a boy, he has chocolate colored eyes. With blonde hair that lays slightly covering his right eye.

"I'm sorry," the boy says with a deep voice.

"It's okay," Ashlee replies fixing her hair smirking to herself.

"What's the smirk for? The boy asks.

"Just to annoy you," Ashlee says her smirk getting slightly bigger.

"Ooh,  you're a fiesty one," the boy says biting his lip looking her up and down.

"So what's your name?" The boy asks after checking  her out.

"Out of your league," Ashlee responds with a smile.

"Now aren't we full of ourself? I'm Oli just to let ya know," he reponds with looking pleased with himself.

"Good for you," Ashlee replies and walks into the cafeteria.

"Hey, where's your pass?"  A woman asks Ashlee the minute she steps a foot into the cafeteria.

"I-- erm, kind of got lost, I'm new," Ashlee replies shyly.

"Don't you have someone showing you around?" The woman asks removing her glasses from her face and placing them on her head.

"Yeah, but I had to go to the bathroom. He couldn't come with me so I told him to just go to the cafeteria. I thought I knew where I was going, but I guess I

thought wrong." Ashlee explains with a tiny giggle.

"Alright, don't make it a habit," the woman says grinning warmly.

"Thanks," Ashlee mumbles and walks more into the cafeteria.

Ashlee looks around, glancing at each table taking in her other classmates. She notices a table full of attractive guys with girls mixed in every few seats. The table next to it was very similar. A table close, but not too close had a dozen girls just staring at the table, appearing to want to be at the table. Another table with the normal kids just chatting with their friends every once in a while someone letting out a laugh. Every few tables there would be only two people.

Ashlee's POV
Where's Xavier? I'm going to have to sit all by myself.

Ashlee looks around and her eyes fall on a familar face; Andy. She begins to walk over to him but quickly stops dead in her tracks when he gives her a 'leave me alone' look.  Ashlee takes a seat at a table all by herself, just laying her head down.

~~3 minutes later~~

Ashlee hears a chair move at the table she's sitting at. Ashlee lifts her head slightly and she sees a scrawny kid sitting their watching her like a hawk stalking its prey.

"Can I help you?" Ashlee snaps looking at the boys green eyes.

"I-I  just wanted to say hi. My friend is friends with you," the boys says timidy.

"Oh, you must be one of Xavier's friends," Ashlee responds ashamed, moving her chair away from the boy.

"Yeah, I am," the boy responds moving his chair close to Ashlee.

"Okay," Ashlee responds slding her chair away from him once again.

"My name is Jacob," the boy says holding out his hand.

"My name is..." Ashlee begins to say.

"Ashlee, I know," Jacob intrupts.

"How did you know that?" Ashlee asks weirded out.

"Xavier likes to talk about you a lot," Jacob whispers into her ear.

"What do you mean he likes to talk about me?" Ashlee asks flipping her blonde hair to the side.

"He just won't shut up about you and he barely knows you, all he does is repeat the same stuff over and over again, " Jacob blurts out annoyed.

"What kind of stuff does he say about me?" Ashlee asks intrested.

"Well he.." Jacob begins to say.

"Jacob, why are you bothering this poor girl?" Jacob teases butting into the conversation.

"Ha ha hilarious," Ashlee mumbles.

"You want to come to our table?" Xavier offers.

"Nah, I'll just stay here with Jacob," Ashlee replies, looking at him.

"Oh well, I'll hang out with you guys to. I mean I am supposed to be showing you around," Xavier says with slight panic in his eyes.

"Alright cool," Ashlee replies as Jacob raises his eyebrows.

"Wanna go and grab something to eat? I'm starving," Xavier asks grabbing his stomach as it growls at him.

"Nah, I'm good. I'm not hungry this early." Ashlee says as her stomach slightly grumbles.

"You sure?" Xavier questions.

"Yeah, thats just my- food digesting," Ashlee says after a short pause.

"Alright, we'll be right back," Xavier replies hesitating slightly going to get in line for lunch with Jacob following behind.

Ashlee sits there looking around and sees a boy staring at her. He just looks over taking quick glances at her.

Ashlee's POV
Why is he looking at me It's getting really weird now....

The guy continues to look at Ashlee, she locks eyes with him causing her to look down and blush. Ashlee looks up again as he talks to his friend, taking in his looks. His 2g sized gagues, his lip glittering with silver as he talks. His shirt slightly exposing a shoulder tattoo.

"Ashlee? Earth to Ashlee?" Xavier says snapping his fingers in front of her face.

"Huh? What?" Ashlee asks looking at Xavier and Jacob like a deer in headlights.

"I thought you were going to start drooling," Jacob teases as Ashlee punches his arm.

"Ha ha, he stared at me first though," Ashlee whines like a five year old trying to defend herself.

"Oh my God, you have to be used to it by now," Xavier complains.

"What?" Ashlee asks confused.

"Guys staring at you. I mean it's no secret that you are attractive," Xavier blurts out.

"Oh yeah," Ashlee says looking at her phone blushing.

'Well good luck getting him to talk to you, he could stare you down for hours but never talk to you," Jacob adds in.

"Oh," Ashlee says turning to look at him again.

He looks at Ashlee almost at the same time as Ashlee looks at him and their eyes meet once again. But this time, he raises his hand gesturing for Ashlee to go over to him.

"Go, he wants you, " Jacob teases as Ashlee checks out her hair in her front camera.

"Be careful with him," Xavier warns grabbing Ashlee's arm lightly.
