The Boy in the Hall

Chapter 5

Samara's P.O.V

I'm eating lunch by myself, like always.
'It's because your such a loser.'
I'm listening to my iPod when I get tapped on my shoulder. I remove my earbud and turn around.
"You're in my spot," says a girl, that I don't know.
"You're kidding me, right?" I ask rudely.
"Nope, now move," she spits back. I get up and look her in the eyes. They're an ugly green, to match her attitude. I roll my eyes and brush past her. I walk to throw away the remainder of my food. I wasn't hungry anyways. I hear her say 'bitch' behind my back and a few kids laugh before I get into the hall.
The hall is completely empty besides to girls walking past me giggling about something. 'Probably about you'
I stare at the floor and head to my locker.
I crouch down because my locker is on the bottom"1,21,8" I say out loud
"Thanks, now I can break into your locker" comes a boys voice. I look up to see Ty standing a few feet back he's wearing his usual blue jeans with a orange shirt. He's still so beautiful. Like when I first saw him in English he has never said anything to me before now, so I thought he didn't liked me.
'Nobody likes you.'
"Well, are you gonna say something?" I hear his wonderful voice and I snap out of my daydream.
"Sorry" is all I could get out.
"Don't apologize. I'm the one who is sorry. I mean, how rude of me? Hello, I'm Ty James I sit in front of you in English. He extends his hand. I stand up and shake his hand. They're so warm and his eyes. So perfectly blue, you could get lost in them. I let go of his hand and blush. "What's your name?"
Oh shit, my name! What's my name again? "Samara" I finally manage to get out
'Wow, he's gonna think your Jillian's twin sister, you're acting so stupid."
"Pretty name"
"Thank you"
"Oh Ty!" Calls Jillian.
'Speak of the dummy.'
Ty turns around and looks at Jillian who is standing in an outfit, that I am pretty sure only strippers can wear."Hey" he says and she comes in closer and gives him a hug. She looks at me with a 'he's mine' look and I open my locker grab my books for English. I close the door to my locker and see Jillian whispering something in Ty's ear. I don't hesitate to leave.

I'm sitting in English class and the bell has just rung. Ty and Jillian walk into the room together. Jillian is attempting to hold his but I can see he's fighting it. When she finally grabs ahold she turns right in front of him, in my full view, and kisses him quickly on the cheek. She turns to see if I'm looking, I am, and sits down. Ty stands for a while, frozen, and then sits down too. He turns to day something to me, but is interrupted.

"Good afternoon, class!" Mr Davies says excitedly " to the end of the first week of school."

"Yeah, first week and I can't wait to get out of this hell hole and away from this class," says Mr. Matthews whose real name is Nathan and just so happens to be Georgia's boyfriend, so I get to see him on a regular basis, some times more disturbing then others.

"Mr.Matthews spell orange for me please." Mr. Davies said calmly

"Fuck you, old man!" Shouts Nathan

"To the office, young man!" He shouts back, while pointing at the door. Nathan gets up, and picks up his desk. He throws it in the direction of the window, and a few people scream. Nathan then storms off while shouting more curse words. We all sit in silence. "Sorry about that class," says Mr. Davies while clearing his throat."Your assignment," he continues like nothing had happened "is a remaking of William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. You are going to need partners, and I will pick your scene."

Before Jillian can turn around to ask Ty to be her partner, he turns and asks me "partners?!"

"Yeah" I reply shyly

"Cool," he says and turns back. I see Jillian's face and she looks very disappointed.

"Partners, partners?" Mr. Davies is asking all partners.

"Hey Ty!" I hear David say and He points point to me. I put my head down

"Mr. James, your partner?" Asks Mr. Davies

"Samara" I hear him reply and I look up, see Mr. Davies staring at me. I give a weak smile and he does too.

'He can't believe someone picked you'

"Mr. James and Miss Kissinger you get the death scene. Miss Tessie and Mr. Joel, you get the marriage scene. And Mr. Matthew, when he gets back from the office will be alone" he says handing out our assignment.

I see Jillian roll her eyes and groan and David stand up and run over too her. "Marriage scene!" He shouts loudly.

"Now this requires you to get to know your partners, do your best!"

"My house after school?" Ty asked me

"Sure" I reply
