Inside Out

Chapter 18

Lara's P.O.V
it's the same old, another day at University . I can't even wait to see how this day turns out. First of all I have today is an appointment with the professor and I guess he has found my new tutor ,and for Johnny  and I's relationship status I guess we've upgraded from enemies to frenemies to actual friends but not close friends but it's a step.

Since he saved me from those guys I kinda see a better side of him not the serious I don't wanna talk to anyone type.

So I wore my black jeans plain shirt with a big hoodie on top of course with some flats and I guess I was good with some slight touch of lipgloss .

After finishing Eve came to pick me up for classes and classes went as slowly as usual and here I am in the professors office waiting for him and after some minutes he finally showed up.

After time he grumpily entered the room,I wondered who fed him a bug for breakfast.then he went straight to the point,

"Lara I guess we both know why you're here." I nodded.

"Well that's good now I asked him and he agreed so you two can plan out your studying plan on your own."

"Thanks professor."

"So your tutor is Johnny Maxwell."moment of silence for my soul.

"What!!!" I shrieked. I'm okay spending only seconds with him not minutes or even hours.

"What's the problem miss Danes."

"Sir may I please have a replacement or something I don't think we will cooperate."

"Why not he agreed and it's unusual for him to agree so I think you better agree and go."

"But-"

"No buts it's settled you may leave miss Danes."

"But-"

"You are dismissed."and he left me no chance for argument so I left and went to get lunch I didn't know Johnny was that smart and turns out the guy got a scholarship to Harvard and Yale but his dad didn't want him too ,such a life.

And now I'm on my way to the cafeteria to find him and give him a piece of my mind.once I entered the cafeteria I saw him sitting on our table with Tim and the rest and he as his usual self is on his phone again. I'll make sure one day I know what he does in that phone of his that makes him forget the real world.

Well I guess it's time to go and follow the guy so I went straight and sat next to Johnny and it's obvious everyone on my table is looking at me shocked . Well I am too even Zack dropped his sandwich and started looking at me but can you just believe that Johnny himself hasn't even turned towards me well since I'm the one that needs the tutoring I decided to be humble for once and said,

"Why didn't you tell me your gonna be my tutor."

"It wasn't my role to tell you."

"Your being mean."

"I'm being practical and ethical." Here we go again.

"Fine stop I don't even wanna argue with you just tell me the time and place you will be teaching me ."

"Choose yourself." Why is it so hard to even talk to this guy.

"Okay how about the library on Friday and Saturday coz I'll be done with my work by then."

"So that's all?" And he actually turned towards me.i guess he thought I needed more practice,

"Yah I guess so?"

"Okay I'll try to clear out my schedule for you but if I can't I'll make some compromise."

"Sure I guess." Then Zack spoke up saying,

"Is it only who is finding this weird."

"Don't worry I don't understand a thing but I guess they understand themselves." Ethan said and here I thought Ethan is smarter than Zack . I turned and saw Tim glaring at Johnny but weirdly I don't think Johnny did anything wrong he's just helping out a friend, but maybe it's something else then a voice spoke up,

" Johnny sweetie pie I've told you to not sit with geeks."here we go again it's Roxane with her attempts to steal Johnny's love which is completely not working at all as I was thinking I felt a warm hand touch mine looking up it was Johnny's , what was he doing he made me stand up carried my bag for me and took me away but before we could get out Roxane shouted,

"Johnny what are you doing with that bitch you won't get any enjoyment from her just come to me she's a slut."I could feel Johnny's hand twitching like he's angry but he's trying to hide itso I enveloped my hand in his though he did look at me for a second and I pulled him out of there so we left .

I took him towards the schools library though he still looked pissed off about what Roxane said so I said,

"Johnny it's okay she's a lamborg and has no respect for other people's feelings."

"What's a lamborg?" He asked with one eyebrow raised up ,aaahh hoa can someone look so cute and stupid at the same time .

"I don't use swearing words so for an alternative I made my own words for them like lamborg means bitch."

"But isn't that just stupid why can't you use the real words instead."

" Well excuse me if my morals are in tact." I huffed looking the other side and I heard a chuckle from him ,it was deep and very nice to hear . What am I saying.

"You make me laugh you know that ."

"What do you mean."

"Your personality is just...... unique yeah that's the word."

"Well I'm taking that as a compliment so thankyou very much now what are we going to study."

"It's you to decide and plus before I forget I can't make it on Saturday."

"Why?"

"I'll be at a business meeting which I can't miss."

"I think you can't miss any meeting."

"Yup." And then he looked back to his phone but I had a question which I had to ask.

"Johnny why do you work so much while your still studying."
He zoned out for some minutes and once he was back he ignored me and continued using his phone.

"The world is hard , many things happen around us and if you can't learn to forget your problems you'll be dead before you know it , so why shouldn't I work while studying." I didn't understand a thing.

"But drowning your problems doesn't make them go away it just makes you forget partially but they will always be there why don't you fight them head on."

"You think it's easy?" And he actually looked at me ,he looks so vulnerable like he can crack at anytime and not like before this time he is actually opening up to me I can see emotions.

"You gotta atleast try."

"I wish it was that easy."

"Okay I'll help you ." He had a small smile on his face.

"Maybe ." And he smiled at me though that word came out like a whisper .

"Okay since I won't be there on Saturday I'll come on Sunday."

"Sunday?"

"Yup ."

"Fine come at 2pm in the afternoon."

"Sure just be ready with your books ." So we studied a little till he got a call to go to the office so we parted and went our separate ways I don't know how it's gonna be having him as my tutor but I'll be fine I just want that big she'll he brought up come down I want to see him happy the good side of him. What the hell am I talking about im talking like a love struck giddy girl.

But for now I'll let him be ,baby steps.............
