"Talk to me like that one more time and I'll show you what I'm going to do." I glared at him murderously. He returned the glare and held it until he caved in first to look away. He had dirt blonde hair and tattoos covering his arms and peeking out from the collar area of his shirt. He looked attractive but his behaviour was straight up opposite to it.

The class started soon and I couldn't really force myself to pay any attention to the handsome professor in front of me. The boy next to me didn't seem to care either as he started doodling in his sketch book. I really couldn't see what he was sketching but he was being sketchy by stealing glances of me constantly while I was busy thinking about my situation with a particular lover boy.

I squirmed uncomfortably in my seat as I felt his eyes on my face for the fifth time. I snapped my eyes towards him when I couldn't take it any longer.

"Is there anything I could do to get you to look away?" I asked him sweetly with fake happiness leaving my lips. He coughed uncomfortably as he removed his gaze when he realised he got caught. I continued staring back at Ethan's lecture until I heard the bell ring.

"You alright?" Dan asked me once I comfortably sat in my old familiar seat behind them.

"Am I ever during physics?" I questioned back as my eyes followed Aaron and Kim as they crossed the room to reach our seats.

"Hey Dan-" Dan interrupted Kim's words with a grunt.

"Move so you could cling onto lover boy here?" Dan completed her sentence with a fake bright smile and grabbed his bag, "Of course, your highness." He bowed his head slightly in mockery and moved towards the table next to mine which was fortunately empty. Kim's face turned bright red in embarrassment and sat down quietly next to Aaron without replying. The cold and rude demeanour of Dan could honestly scare anyone, probably why Aaron didn't bother getting himself involved.

Dan pulled my chair right next to his in one pull. The chair screeched against the floor, bringing everyone's attention towards us. There was absolutely no space between my chair and his. It absolutely amazed me how strong Dan actually was and how weirdly hot I found him during his cold and serious mood. I would have most probably ducked my head in embarrassment at everyone's eyes on us but I was too busy staring at Dan in awe; even though I had no idea why he pulled my chair towards him. He winked at me as a small smirk escaped his lips.

Damn, arrogant Dan is really attractive.

"Mr Wiener, any reason to why your stuck to Miss Clarke?" The physics teacher's snappy voice broke my gaze from Dan. It's when I noticed Aaron's icy glare directed towards Dan and Kim's frown which pleasantly satisfied me.

"I'm attracted to her, ma'am."

Oh, Dan. Please stop.

I walked to my next class as soon as the bell rang without waiting for anyone. I let out a breath of relief when I didn't find Kim entering behind Aaron. Aaron still hasn't spoken a word to me and I honestly wasn't expecting him to. I quickly averted my eyes when they met his but I couldn't stop my crazy heart beating erratically against my chest.

After school Aaron tried conversing but Kristen literally hopped to where I was standing in happiness and excitement that Elsa and I were going to her house for lunch. I was really glad about her sudden appearance for I wasn't really ready to face Aaron with all the awkwardness in the air. I shouldn't be upset with Aaron but I was. I really couldn't help but feel used but at the same time I also knew it was my fault for even crushing on a client, but could you honestly blame me?
