Fix Me | L.H

Tired

"What's wrong?" He breathed onto my face.

His green  eyes were strictly fixed on mine.

Why was he holding me so close?

I couldn't think clearly. I don't remember why I came out in the first place or why I had felt anger.

His eyes are so intense, as green as the sea, a blue tint in it.

I came out of my haze and remembered that I was angry. I hit at his chest. "Let go of me. "

He loosened his grip giving me time to move away from him.

He was still so close to me that he indulged me in his cologne.

I felt it clouding my judgement. I needed to get away.

He didn't let go of my wrist.

"What is wrong with you? Why did you run out of class?" He asked. There were lines of worry on his forehead.

"Why do you care? Please let go of me. For whatever reason it is that you don't like me, I don't either." I angrily sigh.

He flinched and his eyes widened in shock.

"I don't." He composed his expression and shrugged. "Care, I mean. We have an assignment. remember?" He looked to the side and let go of my hand. I gasped at the lack of warmth. "Your my partner."

Oh.

That was it?

I huffed in anger. It couldn't be.

"Oh come on." I said. My voice sounded tired. "Luke? The one who doesn't even bring a pencil to the first day of school? Luke, who doesn't write anything on his notebook? Now you're so worried about an assignment? I can't believe it." I laughed to add to the effect. "Go back inside. Go tell Gisselle and tell her how affected I am by her and laugh together."

I know Im being a little childlike but I cant help it.

His face twisted in anger and then as if my eyes had been playing games on me, he had a smirk on his face.

"Fine. " He sneered. "I will." He turned on his heal and headed back to the classroom.

I was left standing in the hallway.

A teacher came out of her class. "Are you okay hun?"

"Yeah, I'm fine." I smiled to be kind.

"Go back to class." She said.

After debating with myself, I listened to her and went back inside.

I earned a couple stares from the people in my class and a glare from Gisselle. Luke didn't even so much as glance at my direction as I took my seat next to him.

I made up my mind, I wasn't in any way going to interact with this human being other than for the assignment . Once the assignment was done, we were done.

We didn't talk nor did we look at each other for the rest of the period.

There was a moment where my knee brushed against his leg. He groaned and cleared his throat.

I had a weird sensation in my stomach. Maybe because I was hungry.

When the period ended, I was the first to leave.

Keely, one of my very good friends, met me up after school. We always bought Ice cream or Frozen Yogurt.
