Science Boy

Chapter One

“And that's the law of Newton” Mr Clark finished the lesson, and that's when I snapped out of my day dream. “y/n?” I turned to see Dustin's smile. “I noticed you didn't finish your work sheet, do you want to come over to work on it and I can explain anything you missed.” The sweet boy asked.

“Oh umm, yeah sure.” I replied to the boy, making him smile ear to ear. We stood up to leave. “y/n, will you stay behind for a minute?” Mr. Clark asked. “Of course.” I replied, trying not to show my nervousness. “I've noticed you haven't been paying attention during class, and I just wanted to make sure everything is okay.” Mr. Clark stated. He’s always been so kind and mindful of his students. “Yeah, I'm okay. I've just been thinking about anything but science during class, I promise to do better.'' I told him while looking at the floor. “Is everything at home okay?” He looked at me sympathetically.

I walked out of the room and headed down the hallway to Dustin and the rest of the party. “So y/n i heard that there's a boy you like, who is it?” Mike asked while looking me directly in the eyes. “Oh Ummm, no one.” I said very quickly. Dustin looked very hurt by what I said. “Liar!” Max said while walking away and holding Lucus's hand We all headed outside to go home. Once we all had our bikes (except for Max, who is on her skateboard) we started to head home. We dropped Mike off first, then Lucas and Max, and lastly me and Dustin.

We walked into the science themed room, I forgot how big of a nerd he is. “So, if you don't mind me asking. What's been keeping your mind elsewhere during class? You just always seem to stare in the middle of the lesson and I just want to make sure you are okay.” Dustin questioned. “Oh well, it's a guy I like. He just keeps running through my head. Especially in science.” I said kinda slow. “So, what's this guy like?” The curly haired boy pushed. “Well he’s got brown hair, that just fits him perfectly. His eyes are amazing and whenever I look at him I just get lost in them.” the words just poured out perfectly. “He sounds like a pretty great guy,” Dustin said, smiling. “Oh, he is.”

“So, do I know him?” Dustin said while we were half way done. “Yeah.” I responded while writing. “Well do I know him, know him or have I just seen him like once and you're expecting me to remember. Cause if it's the last one i'm doomed,” he started rambling. “You see him everyday at school, so I sure hope you know him, know him.”

“Is it Mike?” He kept pushing.

“Nope”

“Will?” And Pushing

I just shook my head

“Lucas?” and Pushing

“I hope not”

“Mr. Clark?” he said but burst out laughing after words. I froze, “why on earth would I like Mr. Clark?” I said laughing slightly. “It would explain why you're so distracted, especially in science.” He said trying to recover from laughing so hard. “I don't like Mr. Clark!” I said. I was very frustrated with his silly game. I started to gather up my stuff. “I'm sorry y/n, don't leave. I was joking.” Dustin said with a very genuine sad look. I stood up, “Have a good day.” and I left. Later that night I felt really bad for blowing up. Dustin was just having fun. But I didn't think it was funny. I made a plan to apologize to him tomorrow. And with that i fell asleep.

-Time skip-

I rode my bike alone. And when I got to school I was dreading science. The first 6 periods were an absolute blur. But when I walked into the science room, I saw him. He was helping Rachel Mcintyre. with a worksheet. I walked over to Dustin, and just stood there for a minute. “Im sorry, I can be stupid and I hurt you.” I said very bluntly. “It's okay, I was pushing too far.” he spoke very gently.

All I know is that we were learning something about gravity. But I was zoned out. I was thinking about my Science Boy. When the bell rang everyone ran out to head home, “y/n can you stay behind for a minute?” Mr Clark asked me. I walked over to his desk. “You spaced out again. You need to pay attention during class.” He looked me dead in the eye. “I'm sorry, I'm just not doing the best.” he looked at me and I just couldn't resist it, and that's when I decided to close the space between us. My lips touched his, he didn't kiss back instantly, but he eventually did. The kiss was passionate and I loved it. When we parted we were both out of breath. “I'm sorry, I shouldn't have given in.” Mr Clark said as he walked away. “But you did.” I was almost hurt. “Did you like it?” He looked at me, and leaned in again. His lips moved in sync with mine. “Does that answer your question” I was completely in love with the man who stood before me.

-Tiny Time Skip-

“Dustin!” I was running through the hall trying to catch up to him. “y/n?” Dustin looked very concerned. “I need to talk to you right now.” I said completely out of breath. I grabbed his hand and headed to the AV room so we could have some privacy. “What's up?” Dustin asked once the door was shut. “You're my best friend and I trust you so much.” He looked really worried. “The other day when you asked me if I like Mr Clark, I got mad because I do. I really do. And I was with him just barely and W-we kissed.” I could feel my cheeks turning red. “You like Mr. Clark?” he said, sounding completely surprised. “I r-really Like him.” I said avoiding eye contact. “And you kissed him?"

Knock Knock

“What's going on in here?” Speak of the Devil. Mr. Clark walked into the room with the rest of the AV club following behind him. “Nothing, we were just talking.” I Bluntly stated as everyone looked at me and Dustin, “What?” I heard Dustin whisper not so quietly to Lucus. “Nothing.” Lucus whispered back. I made eye contact with Mr. Clark, and looked at all his features. His amazing mustache that outlined his top lip perfectly. “Okay well you boys found your friends so time to go home.”  I couldn't tear my eyes from him. “y/n, You coming?” Mike shouted at me. “Yeah” I yelled as I ran to catch up
