Hate at First Sight

Chapter 2

Lea's P.O.V.:

I was at school. I was in Maths class. Someone, for the love of God, get me out of here. I was sitting next to my best friend, Kate. We have the same sense of humour and are basically like sisters.

Oh yeah, I have a sister. She lives in LA. And she's coming to Ireland. I'm pretty excited, I can't wait to meet her!

The bell ran 5 minutes later signalling the lesson's over. Finally! It's lunch time now and afterwards I have English, my favourite subject.

I headed with Kate, Michelle, Olivia and Lindsey to the canteen. We sat down at a round table and grabbed our sandwiches out of our bags.

I was eating when my crush, David, approached our table. Oh God he's so handsome. But he'll never be mine, because I'm fat and ugly. I looked down at the thought and ignored the things he was saying. "Want to come as well, Lea?" His voice brought me back to reality. "Huh? What? Where to?" I asked confused. David chuckled, "I'm throwing a party tonight, wanna come?" "I wish I could, but my long lost twin sister is coming today, so I don't think I'm going to be able to make it," I explained. "Well you can bring her with you if you want to," he said. He's pretty persistent. Does he want me to be there? "Erm, okay, I don't know yet, is there a way I can let you know?" I asked. "Sure, here," he bent over and scribbled something down on a piece of a paper and headed it to me, "text me if you can come or not," he said. I looked down on the paper and saw he wrote his number down. Then it hit me: I got my crush' phone number. I wanted to scream. I bit my lip and smiled saying I would text him. Then he left.

The bell rang again signalling lunch was over. Me and my friends headed to English class and I sat down next to Michelle. "Dude! He gave you his frigging number!" She whisper yelled. Is that a word? It is now. "I know!" I giggled and I could feel myself blush. I hate to blush, damn it.

English class was fun. We watched Pride&Prejudice, one of my favourite movies. I just loved the way they talk and dance and I sometimes wish I lived in that era. Women were obligated to wear dresses, I mean, that's just perfect.

After school I was finally able to go home. I have to walk 20 minutes, but I don't mind. I love walking. It's an excercise.
I walked home with Lindsey when I heard a male voice calling us. "Lea! Lindsey! Wait up!" We turned around and saw David running towards us. I looked at Lindsey with wide eyes and she wiggled her eyebrows.

"So, Lea, do you know if you can come?" David asked, losing his patience. I giggled, "David, I have to get home to find out." "Oh. Right," he chuckled, "silly me," he added. I shook my head, smiling.

I arrived home and said goodbye to Lindsey and turned to David. "I think my parents are home with my sister right now. Do you want to come in and meet her?" I asked, biting my lip shyly. "I'd love to!" He responded.

I smiled and we went inside. "Mum?! Dad?!" I shouted. No answer. But the car's outside. Weird. Maybe they went out. I turned to David. "I guess they're not home yet," I said with sly smile. "Can I offer you a drink?" I asked. "Yeah sure, some Sprite? If it's not too much trouble," he asked a bit shy. What? Shy? I giggled, "Of course not." I went to the kitchen and grabbed two glasses. I grabbed the bottle of Sprite out of the fridge and filled the glasses with the liquid. I gave one of the glasses to David and took a sip of my own.
I put my glass down and so did he. He moved a little closer to me. Wait. Next thing I know he has his hand so on my hips. "I really want you to there tonight," he whispered, "I kinda like you," he chuckled. The next thing I knew was his lips on mine. He was kissing me. My crush is kissing me. Oh my God. Every girl's dream!

We heard a cough and we quickly pulled away.
"Lea, come here. I want you to meet your sister," my mum said. I walked towards her and I looked into a girl's eyes.

Let me tell you:
It was like looking into a mirror.
