Saving Ally

Chapter 6

--Drew Borden

       As I'm sitting in class I can't focus on what my history teacher is saying. All I can think about are her sparkling blue eyes. She's so beautiful that I want to melt. She's the girl that I picked up at the party. The girl who kept stuttering when I was tapping on her window. God, I'm such a creep. I mean I know I felt bad for her and I wanted to see if she was okay, I really did. I couldn't help myself. What of she thinks I'm a stalker.

        Suddenly the bell rings and I grab my backpack and almost sprint out the door when I'm stopped by my friend, Arrin. "Hey what's going on with you and Kate bro? What'd you do to her?" he asks. I look at him and then glance down at my feet and back at him, "She saw me carrying another girl away and she got jealous and upset that's all."

        I walked out the door and he followed. "So, you broke up with her?"

        "I didn't break up with her she broke up with me, okay?" I say walking faster. He stops me by stepping in front of me and putting a hand on my chest, "Dude, do you even know what happened this morning?"

        "No, I was in the principals office remember?" I respond and try walking around him, but he slids over; blocking my path. He pulls his phone out and shows me a video. It shows Kate pushing that girl that I picked up, down on the ground. She then kneels over her and says something and people laugh, but I can't hear the phone because it's to loud in these goddamn hallways. Then, that girl from the principals office punches Kate and Kate flies back on her back. The video stops and I look up at Arrin, "What the fuck was that?"

        "Are you serious? Were you even fucking watching! Dude, that's some chick punching your girlfriend in the fucking face!" Arrin yells.

        The bell rings and I tell Arrin that have to get to class. "Since when do you care about getting to class on time?" Arrin asks.

        "Since now," I say and run around him and to my class.

        Once I get to class, I'm just on time just to have a few minutes before class starts. I glance around the room and I spot her sitting at her desk with her hoodie on and looking downward. I go over and sit in the empty chair next to her. I turn to her and lean over so she can hear me.
"Hey," I say. She jumps a little and glances over at me then down at her desk again. She grabs hold of the sides of the desks. "I know you know I'm here I saw you. Just remove your hoodie so I can see you better."

        She turns slightly to me and says, "W-who are y-you?"

        "I'm Drew Borden. I'm kinda new here so if you don't know me then I'm surprised, because I don't hide myself," I lean down and try to see her face, but she turns away, "Unlike you."

        "W-what do you w-want?" she asks, keeping her face hidden from my view. I sit back and think about her question. Then, I lean forward again and talk quietly, "To see you. To know you."

        Her hands relax and her shoulders go down. She slowly turns her head towards me and she looks into my eyes. Her eyes are as blue as the ocean and her lips are the same color as roses. Her nose is cute and small. She looks like a little puppy that has been hurt. Her eyes tell me that she's scared and worried.

        "I-I'm A-Ally Christian." she says softly. I smile slightly and say, "Hello Ally. It's a pleasure to know you."

        She smiles ever so slightly and her cheeks become the same shade as her lips. I smile and open my mouth to say something else when the science teacher claps his hands together, startling Ally. I look over at him as he yells out, "Everyone take your seats and shut your trap."

        I look at Ally once more before sitting back in my seat, with my heart beating as fast as a puppy runs.
