teen romance

Russian (skip to friday)

it was half six in the morning with the alarm blaring in my ears. "Wake up" I got from Becca "yeah yeah I'm up." As soon as I stood up I felt a familiar rumble in my stomach "can you make eggs or something please" I didnt get a response so I repeated that again. "FINE" was the response I got, I wasn't bothered to get in the shower and to be honest I didnt need one so I just went to my wardrobe and picked out a clean outfit and put it on. "Ready?" Becca perked her head in and asked "ready for what?"  "Class duh" I wasn't ready I hadn't packed my textbooks and finished my eggs "no" "okay 5 minutes or we will be late for russian." thats when it hit me. We have russian first and my outfit was nowhere near miss johansson ready. "no no I'm going to need more than 10 minutes" I stuffed the last of the eggs into my mouth and dashed to the bedroom. "shit shit shit" I heard Becca creeping outside the door "you okay in there?" i didnt know how to answer "yeah just last minute changing" she paused and then spoke again "uh why?" She was making this seem more difficult than it was "oh no reason just wasn't happy with my outfit" "oh well when I mentioned RUSSIAN you seemed to jolt out your seat and run" dammit Becca shut it. I didn't know what to wear. I had limited outfits, i wasnt going to make it look like I tried so I just put on a simple brown top and pant set. "what do you think?" I asked as I walked out the room. "You look great, lets go tho we're already late" okay. I can do this "here's the keys go wait in the car"I took the keys and walked to the car. I was reminding myself to breathe, I didn't think I could do this I shouldnt even be getting nervous over someone who has no interest in me. Vice versa right? By the time i had jumped out of my thought becca had already reached campus. "Get out loser" she nudged my shoulder gesturing for me to get out. "Fine okay okay." I left and headed to first period. By this time my palms were sweating. "Here goes nothing" I placed my hand on the door handle and pressed down. the door opened into utter silence and Mrs johansson sat at her desk marking papers. She saw me and stood up. "Armani. Nice of you to join us. despite the fact your 10 minutes late." she whispered the last part in hopes only I would hear it. but not quiet enough jack and Jason maguire at the back and elle smith and Elena ross, beccas sister. We're talking about me amongst themselves. "take a seat right at the back behind justin" I took a deal breath and headed up the stairs. "what was that? why are you so late?" I didn't know how to answer so I just blurted out "wardrobe malifunctions." By the day I was getting more and more confident. Mabye I didn't need evelyn. I decided I should probably talk to some other people. all of a sudden I had a random energy burst and the urge to make so many more friends. I started on my row. 2 girls 2 boys and me and justin. I kicked the boys chair infront. "Hey? meet after class?" He looked mad/confused at the start then ran his hands through his hair and said "sure." and i nodded and mouthed Fredricks diner. he smiled and went back to his paper. I had to get the other boy next to him to talk to me. I flew a paper airoplane at his direction with a note saying "hey do you want to meet at fredricks diner after class I have a free period?" He opened the letter turned back and smiled at me. I was happy I could make new friends. I would have to get the girls at the end of class because they were right in professors line of sight. I had my eye locked on one of them. She was beautiful, a nice round face. pearly green eyes sometimes brown in the light. bright blonde hair and not very tall. her sister on the other hand, looked way younger 10-11 Mabye she was cute brown hair brown eyes and way shorter why she was in a college class? I'm not sure shit. I looked down to see a pair of black slip on shoes down below my table. I knew for a fact they weren't my feet. That's when I realised they were mrs johansson feet. I knew I had to but I clenched my jaw whilst doing so I looked up at her and my eyes were immediately captured In her pearly blues. "miss?" I said clenching my jaw so she couldn't see me smiling. She looked at me stunned, she opened her mouth to speak but closed it again. "Any reason why you have no notes down on your paper emerson?" I didn't know what to say I was almost shocked. she didn't sound how I had expected her to she had a  frail voice. a little bit raspy on certain words. I loved it, I wanted to say something to make her talk. I would love to try different words and see what one sounded the best. "I was just thinking about something sorry." that's when she looked at the girl I was staring at no longer than 5 minutes ago. "Her?" She asked. "Why do you care professor?" She rolled her eyes in response and answered "because if you've applied for my class just to gawp at women don't bother." i didnt know she had the confidence. "I'm sure I'm mistaken professor I came here to learn. How dare you make that assumption infront of the whole class" I said with my hand on my heart pretending to be offended, that earned some laughs from everyone in the room. Me and Mrs johansson stared into each others eyes for the remaining minutes of class. then the bell rang and everyone including me stood up and made our way out without a word.
