Double updates tonight as well so make sure that you guys read ' masterpieces ' Before continuing this one.

I haul few long breaths before I head to my lesson. It's just another day with those same piercing gazes which feel like daggers thrown at me, while some don't even spare me a glance.

I take slow steady steps towards my classroom, by the time I reach my classroom.

I see a striking figure leaning on the doorframe perhaps asking for permission.

From what I could see, he is wearing a white-collar shirt whose first two buttons are almost open giving a perfect look of his toned body with his bag slung across his shoulders, his arms are muscular and after Max, probably he is the first boy who is this much athletic, his hair is almost wet and perfectly messed up.

It feels weird to check him out like this but I can't help it.

Probably sensing my gaze on him, he tilts his head to look at me, our eyengagingage for a brief period until he is allowed to enter the class even though there's a distance between us but his eyes are penetrating right through mine.

I feel tinkly down there in my stomach like butterflies have scattered every time his Amber orbs pierces through mine.

I acknowledge him, he is the same boy who pulled me on him when I was sleeping at Watson's house after I flew away. He is her son Eric. I remember him.

Even in the dark, his eyes were sparkling. Then the very same person, in front of whom I squealed. He would have thought that I am some lunatic.

I didn't know when I got lost in stargazing that I forgot that max is not sitting beside me.  and I squealed as I used to every time I use to see the Big Dipper.

I felt so comfortable like I used to feel with Max. I was never interested in stargazing but yesterday, I went to relish the time I spent with Max until he came. He even pulled the warm comforter on me which scents like something like a mixture of strawberry and smoke. 

He even saved me from being bullied. I move my gaze away to look somewhere else out of embarrassment.

The fact that he is a new boy, but soon he will be the one with them too. For them, he is just another eye candy while for me another person to cope with on the list.

but he saved me, probably out of pity.

I resume my steps when I see him going inside. At reaching my classroom, I was out of breath cause I wasn't walking I was running, I don't know how but it almost slid out of my mind that our first period is chemistry.

And all eyes were on me, I have been used to now. Without wasting more time, I slid into a bench at the last at the very right corner.

It doesn't take long for Miss Marie to start her explanation about acids and with which one we will be experimenting. today with sulphuric acid.

looking around, I find no one sitting with me kinda normal now, they stay away from me like I am just a patient who is suffering from a contagious disease.

' Now I would like you all to choose your partners, the one with whom you are sitting in your partner'.

Everyone has a partner except for me, kinda normal.

letting out a sigh, I raise my hand and soon I realize I ain't the only one great.

He too raised his hand. I forgot he is there too. He is sitting at the corner of the classroom while I am at this corner, which doesn't help cause there's no one sitting in between.

before Mr. Dean realizes that we two are left, Our eyes meet for a split of seconds after being broken by Mr.Dean's cough.

" Avery, you and Eric are partners '.

as soon as the words leave her mouth, I almost gasped in shock, he is the same one about whom these girls were talking in the morning, the whole class's eyes are on me now.

They were chattering about him in the corridor. I didn't mean to eavesdrop but I heard what they said.
they were all drooling over him.

Eric Ashford, son of the wealthiest billionaire on the continent. " Lucas Ashford " He is our senior. He fled for his surgery after getting an Achilles tendon while playing a soccer tournament at our school two years ago & it was severe. And max took over as a substitute when he left after two weeks. He has hooked with half of the girls at school and he is Camilla's boyfriend.

Gross

I sense like puking at the name of soccer now.

I can feel daggers flying in the air aimed towards me. They shouldn't be worried it should be me who should be worried my anxiety won't help this situation at all, sitting with Eric who just happens to be this school just another hot boy and he is already popular ain't helping.

After explaining all the precautions Miss Marie is now busy with her laptop while all the students are busy doing their experiment while I haven't even started. My nose is soon blessed with his cologne saying that I don't like it will be an understatement when he took a seat next to me.

It feels like the air has vanished into a thin layer and there's just this temperature rose a Lil.

I know as much as it sounds just another cheesy pickup pick-up's the truth, it's not because of him but because of his aura. The temperature of awkwardness.

" oh it's you again " . he said giving me his brilliant smile. So catchy

Handing him his pair of gloves after he wore his lab coat, to which he says ' Thanks ' while I nod.

I can't be chatty it's a bad habit I left a long time ago and I can't change that especially in front of him. Maybe if I don't speak he will think I am some maniac or mute like others and will leave me alone.

I began pouring the acid into the test tube carefully as it's corrosive. While doing so I feel his gaze on me isn't he supposed to look at the test tube?

Looking at me with amusement apparent in his eyes Amber eyes.
