BANG.
wow what an amazing gesture to start my sophomore year with.
the football bounced straight from my head and to the ground. Not like I've some special appearances to make that i care what i look like. BUT DANG IT HURT. It was one of those rare times when the corridor goes silent for like 0.01 seconds in high school which is still rare. And then everyone carries on with their lives with no ounce of humanity... orrrrr not. I see someone heading in my direction and BECAUSE of my very recent concussion I cannot see clearly as my head is swooning except for the fact the person is wearing a bright yellow. Our school's football jersey. And if this concussion hasn't driven me crazy yet its Spencer FREAKING Ace with a look of shock covering his face.Even at this moment i cannot help but notice the green of his eyes, they look like dark forests trying to unravel a story with each glance, and the way his dark hair falls over his forehead.When he stretches his hand towards my direction to help me up I stare at it as if touching him will make me unholy. Hell, it sure as hell might considering the kind of thoughts he provokes inside me. I see him blabbering something but I cant comprehend a single word due to my lack of focus on what hes speaking and rather concentrating on his lips. I need to stop thinking of him until he officially thinks I'm mute because he clearly doesn't even know my name and thats the first thing I hear coherently coming out of his mouth when I'm out of my trance. "WHATS YOUR NAME, CAN YOU HEAR ME? MISS I NEED TO KNOW YOUR NAME TO CALL YOUR PARENTS- Natalie. I blurt out before he can complete. A look of relief falls on his face and he lets out a sigh of relief. I continue,"my name is Natalie grace. im a sophomore. and my class starts in 1 minute I need to go." I run for the hills before I can embarrass myself more. And suddenly I'm being pulled towards him. He tugs me towards himself and if the concussion wasn't enough to welcome my sophomore year with, his hard muscle wall in the name of chest hits my head again buuuuuut- it doesnt hurt.
Infact, heat travels from his body to mine and i can feel myself getting nervous and trembling in his hold. on the other hand he doesnt seem to even budge. His grip only gets stronger. And then i get the MOST intelligent plan ever that would make Einstein doubt his own equation. I point towards the other direction as if there's something REALLY Interesting that appeared in the last 5 seconds behind him like a freaking 2nd grader. Hell even they have better tactics now. He still doesn't even blink an eye. And I can feel a blush creeping upto my cheeks. Oh god oh god this is bad. Even tho I have naturally honey coloured skin my blush still is very prominent and someone from 50 feet away can also notice that there's a freaking-Tomato-in-name-of-a-human standing. That's when I notice the not-so-subtle grin of specter. Dang he noticed I'm blushing. And suddenly the SWEET guy who was shook few minutes ago dissolves in thin air and i can feel him getting back to his OG idgaf reputation. He looks striaght into my eyes and says, "are you walking with those feet of yours gracie, or do i need to throw you over my shoulder and take you to the nurse?" when i still dont meet his eyes he continues, "it wont be a tough job to lift that less than 100 pounds of yours over my shoulder
.And he not-so-subtly flexes his muscles. i make a look which says "whateverrr" but deep inside i know IT'S SO NOT "whateverrrrr".15 MINUTES later as if starting my sophomore year with a bAnG, and the star football player sitting beside me who didn't even know my existence before this morning WASN'T enough, the nurse is nowhere to be found in her office. WONDERFUL.
Now I've to spend time with the guy i so much as didn't even look at in the eye in the past two years, not because I'm too vain or oh-he's-not-my-type but because there was no point. I dont even wanna think- I hear a huge THUD. Absolutely what i need right now to top off my head throbbing. When i glance in the direction of the noise i see specter doing something with the mini- fridge, probably grabbing an ice-pack but before I could stop the words coming out from my mouth, I can't help but the perfect student inside me shouts, "STOP VANDALIZING SCHOOL PROPERTY DO YOU EVEN KNOW THAT'S A CRIME- before i can speak another word he's holding his finger against my lips and I feel my head swooning. And to be honest I dont even know if its because of the concussion or the fact he's so close to me. Not like i am the part of his fanclub but because it's so unexpect- I start seeing black spots and its all black now.I wake up god-knows-when and i can feel the stone cold ice pack below my head. And by the corner of my eye I see someone hovering and I instantly spot specter. God i might as well black out again before embarassing myself anymore- "hey gorgeous" he says. My eyes involuntarily open. I see him grinning at me and i instantly push myself up and ohmygod it stings at the back of my head. And his grinning suddenly changes to a look of worry. I open my mouth to speak and reassure him I'm okay but he doesnt let me instead motions me to stay quiet and not attempt to speak too soon as it might cause pain. Oh no, Believe it or not as my world blurs again....I break my own promise to feel anything towards this guy. I feel GRATEFUL for his presence.
