Stir the tension

Chapter 15

Leo POV-

I was sitting in history class beside Caleb, we were working on the assignment Miss Evans had told us to do. It was a fun history lesson, Miss Evans was really nice, and she was also a pretty good teacher.

''She's kind of hot right?'' I snapped out of my owns thoughts and turned to look at Caleb. I chuckled and shook my head in disbelief.

''She's our teacher Caleb'' I said calmly, looking down at my paper. Many of the students thought she was pretty and so, but I thought that was weird. I mean yes, she might be okay looking, but still. Gosh why were the students at this college so weird.

''I really don't understand why you don't think she's hot Leon, even though she is our teacher. And just so you know I am not the only one.'' He laughed a bit at what he had just said. I rolled my eyes and leaned back into my chair as I looked at him.

''I think the difference is just that I don't fall for teachers'' I smiled teasingly at him, and I could see he got annoyed from what I had said.

''I haven't fallen for her I literally just said she was hot!'' I laughed so hard as he realised how loud he had just said that.

Miss Evans turned her head in our direction and walked over to the both of us, with a smirk. She had obviously heard what Caleb had said.

She put both her hands on the table we were sitting at and looked at us both.

''Boys if you don't mind, then please focus on getting the work done'' she turned around on her heels as she walked back to the front of the class. The whole class spread with giggles. Caleb's face turned red, as he hid his face in his hands.

He just embarrassed himself. Too bad, he deserved it.

The bells rang and I slowly started packing up my things. I could see that Caleb did not have this patience, he grabbed his things and rushed out of the classroom looking down at the floor to avoid any eye contact with students, and especially with Miss Evans.

I walked down to the door and gave Miss Evans a quick smile as I tried not to laugh. Miss Evans chuckled and pointed in the direction that Caleb had walked in with her thumb.

"Is he okay" she mouthed while looking at me amused.

I just gave her an okay hand gesture and went out the classroom, as I caught up to Caleb.

Poor boy, accidently exposing himself like that.

We walked to the café, and I couldn't stop laughing every time I looked over at him. He stopped up and glared at me. I forced my mouth shut and we continued walking.

After reaching the café we went inside and sat down at a table next to the window.

I had bought myself a hot chocolate, obviously with extra mini marshmallows and it was the best. Caleb and I talked, I tried not to bring up the incident from before, but even looking at him without laughing was hard.

''Hey'' Daniel had come in and sat down beside me as he put his bag on the floor. I was very busy picking out the little pieces of chocolate from my third granola bar today, so I didn't have time to look up at him.

''I didn't know you two knew each other'' I could feel Daniels's judging eyes stare at what I was doing. I didn't care, the chocolate was the best part, every person in their right mind would keep it to eat at the end.

''Yea, we have history class together, I thought Leo told you?'' Now I could feel Calebs judging eyes on me too. Why was everyone so freaking judgmental today.

''I mean, you never asked'' I looked up slightly to see the two of them sitting there staring at me, with raised eyebrows.

''That's not a reason Leo'' I did not agree with Daniel on this one. Since technically, it was a reason, it just wasn't a very good reason. We sat for a little while in silence, Daniel went to buy something to drink as well, and I was eating my chocolate pieces.

I noticed Ace had walked into the cafeteria and was now sitting alone at a table. But it was not long before he was surrounded by girls. I could see Caleb and Daniel making eye contact, as if they knew something about Ace.

''What is it, tell me.'' I couldn't help it, the curiosity took over me. Daniel sighed and looked at me.

''Did you hear what Ace did to a girl, I think her name is Lilly?''
I did know, I saw what had happened, but it was still hard for me to comprehend what I had seen.

The guy that was looking at frogs with me, and the one who had just treated a girl like she was nothing, I didn't understand how that was the same person. It made absolutely no sense to me.

''Yes. I saw it'' hopefully they could tell me something so it would make more sense to me.

''Well actually, we went to the same high school as Ace. That's how we know each other, Caleb and I.
"But didn't you guys go to a private school, how could he afford that?" I cut him off.

"Yes, his parents are loaded. Anyway, Ace was actually not always the idiot he is now. Well at least in high school he seemed to be quite shy, he didn't really have any friends, though there were just a couple rumours about him having some sorts of family issues but that's it. Ace really changed and none of us understood why. Now he's really just an asshole.'' Caleb said. Daniel nodded and took the final sip of his drink and then stood up.

''Caleb, we have to go now.'' Daniel looked at Caleb seriously and Caleb finally got the hint and stood up while nodding.

''See you Leo'' They both walked away leaving me alone. I went back to the dorm after finishing my chocolate bits.

Alexandras POV-

I was sitting with Carly in the main lounge. I was in my own thoughts with Carly just yabbing in my ear, occasionally I would just nod and hum in agreement. My thoughts were broken when I saw Claire looking at me from the stairs. I met her eyes and smiled faintly at her. She walked down the stairs on the way to the dorms I assumed.

I looked over at Carly and excused myself quickly, not giving her time to bitch at me for not listening to her boring story of how she got the exclusive kylie Jenner lip liner that wasn't even out on the market yet. Which was obviously false, because I saw them sell it at Makeup and Glow for only like 100 bucks a piece last Thursday, but God forbid to tell her that.

I walked over to the girl's dorm rooms and went inside mine. Claire was sitting on her bed with her laptop opened. She had an earbud in and looked like she was listening to some music. I took my shoes off, they were high healed Louboutin's, super exclusive and super uncomfortable. I went over to my bed, sighing as I ran a hand through my hair. Claire looked at me and smiled softly, I smiled back and decided to take a quick shower to freshen up.

I went over to my closet and got out some sweatpants and a white crop top. I then walked inside the bathroom quietly and started stripping down to my undergarments, I sighed and took the last piece of clothing off before entering the cold water.

My entire body got goosebumps as I shivered, the cold sensation spreading to my entire body in mere seconds. I washed my scalp, getting all the way into the ends and then soaped my body up, rinsing everything off.

I was going to start new.

I got out of the shower and wrapped a white towel around my body getting everything dried up. I then put on some lotion and put some new undergarments on, feeling fresh. I quickly put on my sweatpants and crop top on and went out of the bathroom, feeling way better.

While drying my hair with the towel, I walked back to my bed. I felt Claires eyes on me and when I turned my head to look at her, her cheeks got red, and she sheepishly smiled at me. I tilted my head and smirked, while turning my head back to face my bed.

"Was the shower good?" Claire asked me as she tried to stop the awkward silence, just ending up making it more awkward.

"Yes, I guess so" I replied as I shrugged, not really sure what to answer with.

"Cool" Claire nodded slowly as she made her lips into a straight line.

"Okay" I said as I chuckled slightly, receiving a small giggle from Claire.

It was pretty darn cute.

I wanna hear you giggle again.
