Thorn in my Heart

Chapter 3: Badass Behavior

Amanda's POV

I woke up at 4am this morning not wanting to have to deal with that asshole and that airhead, that unfortunately are my parents. I wore my usual outfit which consist of black skinny jeans,white converse and an oversized purple hoodie. I walked out of the house but not before grabbing my bag and my phone, and headed to the cliff to watch the sunrise and get my emotions under control before going to school.

After sitting for half an hour,the sun came up so beautifully from behind the mountains and it was breathtaking.

I stood there watching for a next half an hour before deciding to leave and go to school.

When I finally reached school, I headed for my locker to grab my book for first period and headed straight to class not giving a fuck or two about anyone around me.

Walking into the classroom, the only other persons there were the nerds. Walking pass them I headed to my seat at the far end of the class to the back,and took out my phone along with my ear pads and started listening to Billie Eilish's I don't wanna be you anymore and reading his best mistake from wattpad stories.

Time continued to pass and I engulfed in my own world, when the the fucking bell startled me - informing us it was the end of class - and the next thing I know is my knee colliding with the edge of the table,"son of a breadcrumbs."

I muttered out while falling back in the chair. Within seconds I heard someone chuckle behind me, I turned around as carefully as I can, not wanting to hurt my knee any further than it already is. Behind me is the one and only Parker Malone, with his annoying voice, I don't know what happened but I snapped at him.

"What the fuck are you laughing at?!"

"Whoa whoa grouching tigress it's just that I've never heard that one before,"he threw up his hands in defense but still had an amused look on his face.

"Whatever,"I sighed while getting up to leave the class.

I don't think I'll even go to my other class because apparently the only thing that woman knows is to gawk over all the guys that enter through her classroom door. I'll probably ditch sch....

"Hey Amanda! Wait up!"he yelled shoving his books in his bag and running towards me.

I rolled my eyes and continued walking down the corridor to get rid of my books in my locker. After shoving my books in my locker and closing the door,the god damn idiot was standing there with the biggest grin on his face I could hardly see the rest of his face.

"Can't you take a hint? Didn't you just see me roll my eyes and walk away from you?"

"First question,my answer is no and the other two are yes but I decided to follow you anyways,"he grinned even wider if that's possible.

"Shut the hell up and wipe that pathetic grin off your face,"I deadpan.

The grin immediately disappeared and he's back to the straight face guy I know.

"Sorry, but I was only trying to be nice."

"Well let me tell you that wasn't even close to nice that was creepy and weird." I hadn't finished speaking when I saw his ears flashed scarlet red. I probably would've said that was cute if my emotions weren't all over the place. Instead I said,"now if you'll excuse me, I have people to avoid and places to be."

Without waiting for his response, I stepped around him and walked out of the school. And just like before I'm once again stopped.

"Amanda!"

"Can I ask you something?"he panted.

I turned around, folding my hands over my chest before replying.

"You just did."

"Another one."

"Whatever be quick will ya?"

"Ahmm....c-can I h-have y-your phone n-number?"he stuttered. Call me wicked but I burst into a heartwarming laughter, with him looking at me like I had totally lost it,an believe it or not I doubled over laughing my ass off. When it looked like he was about to cry I pulled myself together trying to stifle a laugh.

"Parker listen, thank you very much for making me laugh,but...."

I'm cut off with the most desperate plea.

"Please, I... I...ahmm... Amanda can I please have your number? I have something to tell you but I don't think I'll ever be able to do so with that look on your face," he finished.

"Fine give me your phone," I sighed and outstretched my hand.

"W-why?"

Seriously this guy is wearing off my patience,"didn't you just ask for my number?"I sighed heavily. And he nods positive.

"Then give me the damn phone so I can add my number,"I hissed.

"A-are you serious?" Does this guy ever stop stuttering?

I gave him a deadpan look and he quickly headed the phone over.
