r u ok?

I sit in homeroom, my head held low. Reading my new book, the spine barely creased. I hear a warm, deep voice over my music. I take out my left earbud, as my music fades I blend back into drab reality. Well, it wasn't soo drab because my gorgeous homeroom teacher greeted me.

"hey, y/n," he says with a kind smile

"oh, um hi," I said, suppressing a smile  

"So, you have been a bit quiet in homeroom lately," did he notice me? I can't believe he was worried about me, how cute "I just wanted to check in on you, you don't seem to sit with or talk to the other students" he looked into my eyes and then back to the ground, he seems nervous, I think that's why he is rabbling like this. "I just want to ask you..." his eyes lifted to meet mine.

"Are you ok?"

We look into each other's eyes for what felt like an eternity but like in a good way. Like I could look into his eyes forever, it felt like home. It was like a warm, safe hug. Before I could answer we were interrupted.

"Could I please borrow y/n?" a dark assertive man says in the doorway. He was still, like he had been standing there for a while, watching. He seemed to fit in the doorway so perfectly, like it was made for him, his tall, muscular body leaning on the door frame.

"umm ok" I stand up, leaving Mr Thorpe at my desk

I meet  Mr Clark at the door, he smiled and tilted his head gesturing out front of the classroom. It was strange to see him smile, it's not that he had a bad smile, just not an expression I had anticipated. I have never seen him smile before, he was, ask Grace would say "the dark, sexy brooding type" which I didn't fully agree with. I think he was more of a cocky, overly confident ass, but that was just my opinion.

"y/n..." there it was again. The way he said my name, the way it made me feel. It's strange, it was this feeling that I didn't understand. I have never felt this level of hatred for someone ever in my life. He made my skin crawl." I just wanted to apologise" what!?! "I was out of line. You did not deserve that detention the other day.." is he apologising!? Something I never thought would happen, he is grovelling. The King asshat himself is apologising to me!"Ummm... I'm sorry, it was unfair and uncalled for and I just want to say sorry and ask.."

"are you ok?" 

"oh umm... thank you?" I was stunned, what was I meant to say! I awkwardly smiled.
