Fairytale ( The Wattys 2022 )

great partner

"God I hate PA " I chuckled at my lazy best friend as I pulled my PA uniform
"You hate anything related to sport " she rolled her eyes at me wearing the uniform shorts barely reaching her tigh because of her tall legs while mine reached my middle tigh , yeah yeah I know I am short
"I like guys who do sports " she said throwing her hair up in ponytail and I loughed doing the same to my hair before walking out to where the teacher is
"Hey watch this " i turned looking at my best friend who was walking like a model a few minutes ago now holding her leg and faking pain , I raised my eyebrow watching her walking with one foot to the teacher and saying god knows what before she turned with an evil smile waving goodbye and going where the sits are
I shock my head chuckling at her while I stood next to everyone in the middle of the playground in front of the teacher
I saw at the end and far from the students that new kid standing alone looking ahead not caring about the whispers and the stares of the students , well I am staring too
I quickly looked back at teacher who started speaking " I want to see you running three rounds around the field and than choosing your partner for the next activity "
I started running with everyone else while glaring at Sam who was sleeping on the seat , she was supposed to be my partner
Now I need to find somebody else and try to socialize with him or her
Shit
I drunk my water while looking to all my classmates and trying to see if I know someone to choose but it's like everyone has already chose his partner while I was standing like a fool
I saw that new kid standing alone again and no one was trying to talk to him like they don't want to be his partner
so I found myself slowly walking towards him until I stood right in front of him smiling
"Hey " I slowly said and waved like a little kid , god sometimes I am so awkward , I felt my cheaks turning red while I looked at his eyes
God they are beautiful , this is the most beautiful green eyes I have ever seen , It's like a forest that you just want to get lost in it

"Hi " I froze hearing his voice , it's so deep and manly , he sounds like he doesn't talk much
I shrugged my shoulder talking " well my name is Katherine but everyone calls me Kath so would you like to be my partner ?  "
I watched the way his eyes widened like he is suprised that I want to be his partner , well I guess I was correct when I thought no one wanted to be his partner , I don't know why I mean he looks normel like any other kid in here
"Sure " I smiled widely and moved standing next to him waiting for the instructions from the teacher
"Alex " I barely heard him because of his low voice but I smiled turning to him and offering my hand
"Well it's plaseur to meet you Alex " he looked at me like I am an alien than looked at my hand and slowly raised his and held mine
His hand was so big that my hand disappeared in it which made me chuckle , he raised his perfect eyebrow questioning the reason why I am loughing
"You are huge "
That's what she said
What the hell did I just say ?
I took my hand rumbling " I mean your hand is huge and that you are very tall " I saw the tip of his lip rise a little and his eyes shine with amusement
Yeah yeah very funny
Just great I made a joke out of myself , I huffed annoyed and turned back to the teacher who was holding ropes , Okeeey what the hell does he want us to do with those ?
"So I need every two to tie there left foot with their pertners right foot and stand next to thet line " I groaned and steped forward to take a rope
I bend down next to Alex to tie our feet but he quickly took the rope frome my hand and did it himself , I watched him finish in two seconds which made me raise my eyebrow staring
I bet he is used to do that all the time , god I don't want to know the things he tied or rather the girls
We walked slowly towards the line and I almost loughed at the way he took my foot with him in long strides that made me almost fall which made him  remember me so he tried to walk in short strides
As soon as we stood at the line next to everyone else the teacher announced that we would run as soon as he whistle
This is going to be hard
I prepared myself so I could go as soon as I hear the whistle watching closely everyobe else , that's a thing about me
I like to win
The teacher whistled and everyone went off but I felt myself not moving at all , I looked back at the body attached to mine glaring
"Come on move your pretty little ass and let's win this race " I said sending daggers at him and trying to dragg him and make him move
I heard him chuckle but is was so faint ,I almost missed it than I felt his hand wrapping around my waist in a way that made me loose my breath , I looked up at his eyes seeing the way his watching me closely than I felt myself light but I didn't move my eyes from him
I felt him moving forward without taking his eyes off of me , his eyes are beautiful
What the hell am I thinking , I quickly took my eyes of him and watched the way he passed everyone else which made me smile
We gonna win
I screamed with joy as soon as he put me down and raised my hand like a fist
"Great job partner " I said still waiting for him to pump my fist with his
He slowly raised his huge hand and pump fist mine and I could see a smile forming which made me smile even wider
He is a nice guy
He bend down and took out the rope and stood next to me waiting for the next activity
I think I got myself a great partner
