ima loner.
I'll admit it.

I have one friend, Casey. we meet from our parents, as they work together.

she is very popular and we are polar opposites, but we get along so well because we know what it's like to have parents who work too hard, and think that throwing money at us makes up for our lost childhoods.

she is blonde, with ocean blue eyes. right now she is dating a guy named Connor, but they will probably end in a week.

and then there is me.
I have blue eyes, but they are dirty, with messy dark brown hair.
I'm the girl who sits at the back of the class.
I just don't like the attention on me, okay?

anyways,
I sit alone in the library rereading Harry Potter for the 8th time. Casey sits with her other friends during lunch, but I don't really mind because I'd rather be in a quiet library than a loud cafeteria.

I can see someone come up to me from the corner of my eye. they seem to be talking but I can't hear them through my earbuds. they are looking around too so they must be talking to someone else.

but all of a sudden a hand flies in front of my face.

"HELLOO!" he says.

putting my book down, I wipe my head around to face him with an angry face.

I open my mouth to speak, but I freeze.
Matteo Hayes. Matteo Hayes? why in the hell is Matteo Hayes trying to get my attention?

"you're Theo right?" he asks.

"Thea" I correct him

"okay good" he just stands there.

i stare at him with wide eyes, "could I help you with anything?"

"OH! yes actually," he remembers, "I was looking for a book about the American Revolution.. the librarian was busy and she said you were in here a lot,"

"uh follow me I guess.." I said leading him into the non-fiction section. he hummed a tune I couldn't recognize as I pulled out a book.

"I'm surprised to see you with a book," I said raising my eyebrows.

he put a fake hurt look onto his face, "wow, just met me and already assuming?" he said opening the book up backward.

i rolled my eyes at his confused expression. "you just don't seem like a guy who reads," he put the book staring deep into my eyes. I couldn't lie, it made my heart skip a beat.

"and you think that because?"

"Well for starters, you opened that book backward,"

"huh so that's why..." he murmured

"and you never show up to class so I would guess that you don't really care about school,"

"How would you know that?" he asked picking up the book again. (the right side this time)

"We have English together," I inform him, handing him another book.

"We do?"

"Yup."

"huh.."

"so let me guess, you're going to fail if you don't do this essay?" I said stating the obvious

"you guessed it, you down to help me?"

"yeah, no"

"oh come onnn, I bet you're smart, you're spending your lunch reading Harry Potter after all."

"a fifth-grader could read Harry Potter" I held my laugh, "not sure you can thought"

he didn't find this funny though, "I can read that stupid book,"

"oh yeah? prove it," I said handing him Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone.

I started to walk back to my reading area, but i could hear him following me.

"What now?" I ask without turning around.

"I'm bored"

"read your books?"

"no"

"eat lunch?"

"no"

I turn around, giving him a death-stare.
"well, I can't help then, go away,"
I pick up my book, hoping to zone him out.

"damn, what's up your ass?"

"you, now go away,"

"I wish," I could practically hear his smirk.

I lower my book, giving him a sarcastic laugh.

"fine, see you tomorrow Thea," he said giving me a short look and walking away.

tomorrow?
we didn't even have school tomorrow?
yup, this boy was definitely dumb.
