Loud Silence

Chapter 1

                Silence. The word filled my head ringing so loud I looked around to see if anyone could hear it. I know I don't talk, but gods were my thoughts so loud.

        "I said silence!" My history teacher glared at us all. He is tall, pudgy man with salt and pepper colored hair, a grey stubble on his chin, and dark eyes that always looked down upon us. I look away from him and back out the window. It was raining today. Gods how I loved when it rained. The skies were such a beautiful shade of grey that I know if I stared too long I'd get lost in it and before I knew it the class would be done and everyone would be gone but I'd still be staring at the impossible beauty of the rain falling from the sky. But today I couldn't do that. We had a test today, one I'd surely pass like all the rest. How do I keep up with all my work if I'm always getting lost in the wonderous beauty of nature? I have no idea. I've always been very smart even as a child I exelled at all my studies and I have no idea how. Yes I know I sound very stuck up but it's the honest truth. I did so good they thought I was cheating, but I wasn't. The answers just seem to come to me.  It's a wonderful thing because I know if I wasn't this way I'd fail every class. I'd still be stuck in freshmen year and not the senior I am now.

        "Clear everything off your desk, now. Take out a pencil and get to work you've already lost 4 minutes." Mr. Kian's, my history teacher, voice was bitter. He hands out the tests and returns back to his desk muttering and mumbling to himself. I watch him for a second. Why is he so bitter? So cold? Were we really that bad of kids? I look around class, my eyes settling on each face quickly before settlnig on Noah's. He was a beautiful boy, but nothing about him made my heart flutter like the rest of the girls here. He has no affect on me. His looks were merely that. Just looks. I don't get what about him girls like. He's an arrogant jerk. He thought he could hae anything he wanted but guess what. He can't. No one gets everything they want. It's just not how life works.

        It takes me fifteen minutes to finish the test before I'm walking up to the desk to and placing the test on Mr.Kian's pile. He looks up at me.

        "That was certainly fast." I nod silently.

        "Want to tell me why?" I give him a silent look that says no, I simply shrug my shoulders and walk back to my desk. Why do teachers think that I'm going to talk? It's never going to happen. Okay? Never. I glare out the window. Everything is fine till the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. Someone was staring at me I could feel it. I turn and scan the room quickly before I lock eyes with a pair of deep grey eyes. I quickly look away from Noah and out the window. He's never done that before.  The bell rings and I pick up up my bag and make my way to the door. I'm walking to my locker when someone grabs my hips and pins me to the wall. I flinch and look up the fear in me evident from the way I'm cowering away. Noah stares down at me with judge filled eyes.        

        "What's your problem? Why don't you talk?" His voice is strong, and edgy. I flinch away from his tone and close my eyes. I try to push him off but he's too strong. What is his problem? He's never wanted to talk to me before. I glare up at him and shove his hands off me. I'm not going to fall for his crap.

"Why don't you react to me like all the other girls?!" He calls after me. I turn around put my hands up and shrug. Seriously. I roll my eyes at him and walk away having made my point. I meant it. No one can have everything they want. It simply does not, work like that.
