Mark POV
today was just like any other day. we discussed about displacements in chem. i learned the arrangements of some common metals from the most active to the least active. many funny stuff also happened. the day was fun but, it would be a whole lot better if i spent it with christine. also, i've been getting a feeling that somebody was watching me: the first one happened in the hallway. the next one in the canteen. the third in my way going to my house. i just don't know why someone would follow me. it just doesn't make any sense at all!
Christine's POV
today, i've started stalking the shadow. he seemed so normal during the class and other stuff. he walks normally and also, eats normally. but what intrigued me the most was that his house and lexie's are close to each other. but they didn't talk to each other at that time. it's just weird to think that the two of them aren't even that close and yet,they seem to know each other for so long. "hmm", i said, "i smell something fishy going on here."
Lexie's POV
today, mark and i agreed to put walkie-talkies in our rooms so that we won't even bother ourselves opening the windows. after we installed them, we tried them out and talked about many things- some personal- but i lied when he asked me if i liked somebody. i just can't tell him. i also felt my face blushing because of these exact words he said: "it's so disappointing that a cute girl like you doesn't like anybody". can you blame me? if only he was my boyfriend, i wouldn't mind spending the rest of my time with him. also, he told me that he was getting the creeps because he said that somebody was stalking him. i just said to him that it was just his imagination. why? because i was the only one who was stalking him. who would even want to stalk him if he didn't stood out in school? but then, i was also feeling restless. could it be that... christine was the one stalking him? but what could possibly be the reason for her to stalk him? did she get suspicious when mark and i went to school together? "umm... lexie?", mark said. "lexie?", he said.
"huh? what?" , i replied.
"you spaced out."
"sorry, i was just thinking of something."
"what is it?"
" i was wondering who could possibly be stalking you."
"thought of anyone?"
"nope", i lied. i just can't tell him. i don't even have proof and i might just be jumping into conclusions. "well that's ok", he said, " at least you tried. hey, i have something to ask you." he said. "what?", i replied. "will you go out with me this saturday?", he said. "w-w-what!?!?" i stuttered. he is asking me out? "i said if you can go out with me this weekend. i have to go attend a meeting at a hotel and i was also wondering if we can have some fun", he clarified. "w-well, if that's the case, then i'll accompany you." i answered. "really? that's great! i'll just call you through the talkie to wake you up" he said, jokingly. "shut up. i'll wake up on my own.", i replied. "so it's a deal then?", he said. "yeah, it is." i replied. "so...7:00?" he asked. "ok, no prob." i replied. "ok then, shall we call it a day? good night lexie", mark said. "yeah, we should. good night mark", i replied. yes! i'm going out with him! i wonder what i should wear? nah, i'll think of it later. for now, i should probably get some rest.
