The school bell rang, all the people that were in my class spread out to different spots to group back with their friends, some went outside for lunch.

While in the class, there are few female students surrounding Sir Han on his desk at the front as well as another loud people grouping at the back corner of the classroom that I had also seen this morning.

Loud laughs came from there,

"UGH Hunter could you again please shut up?! So annoying! I'm trying to hear what Sir Han is saying, Geez!"

As this Hunter guy heard that, I believe he's the one that turns his head to face the owner of the voice. Well, that one of the popular girls, or I must say,, Queen Bee of this school. I'm sure every school has one. You're lucky if you don't, less inconvenience.

"Quit the attitude, Queen Bee Wanna-be. Not like he's going to get interested in immature girls with pinky barbie stuffs like yer."

"Hah! You're just jealous you aren't getting any bitches like him!"

"Hey! Watch your mouth bitch!" Hunter snaps back at her, loud enough to make Sir Han break the tension going on in the classroom.

"That is enough! Watch your language and respect the other students that are still in the classroom."

Everyone fell silence and I saw Sir Han is making his way out of the fan girls crowd and actually I believe, heading off back to his office. . . aaand he's gone in just split seconds!

By that, I looked at Hunter with raised brows, then taking the chance to look at whom they're surrounding for. Pair of eyes met mine, it's grey and wow.

What do I mean by wow? It's normal famous guys will always be attractive, what exactly am I expecting...

He shot a dirty look at me. With that, I quickly turn my head away from him.

Whoa, what was that? Anyways, I better get out of here.. That was awkward. My fault for staring at him for too long.. I feel like a creep for doing that.

I calmly turn around and get myself out from the drama going on in the class, and yeah..  I can say that I'm trying to avoid what just happened back there. I'm embarrassed as heck.

"Oof..!" A voice can be heard after something bumped into my shoulder.

"Sorry! I wasn't paying attention lately." I apologized.
I looked up to see one of the popular high school boy that I've seen around many times. Not that I remember his name or actually meet him in person..?

He laughed at my response,
"No no! Are you alright? Got hurt anywhere?" He checked on me from side to side, while me shaking my head, "I'm good! Thanks for the concern... uh.."

"Mhm.." He was like waiting for me to say something but I am just indirectly asked for his name,

"I'm sorry I'm not sure what to call you?" I continued, hesitantly.

He let out a sigh, "It's Ethan Lockwood. I figure you don't listen when I'm introducing myself aren't you? We're like seatmate!"

I raised my brows, Oh My God! So he's the one that's sitting beside me.
"Oh..! You are Ethan, yeah.. Back there I thought you were one of the new students here."

"Of course no!" He laughed it off before continuing, "We met back then in the Sports Day last year. You were in charge of volunteering, giving out water bottles for the basketball teams", he put on such a sweetest smile..

I rubbed the back of my neck softly, "Oh yes I did! But I guess I forgot, I'm sorry.."
"It's alright, it was crowded with other teams as well last time so that make sense." Ethan responded and shrugged it off.

He has part ways wavy hair at the left side, soft brunette colour and undercut..? That's kinda hot. For years I've been in this school I never take time to notice many attractive people are actually in the same school as mine.

My younger self would pay much attention to hotties here and there so that she can find her oh-so-called 'true love'. But with my whole current situation, I decided to just focus on my studies, which leads me to not attending any party or hangout with the others.

Suddenly awkward silence occupied between us. Until I heard someone behind the doorway that I didn't noticed, was blocking.

"Hey, if ya'll are going to flirt go get a room. You are blocking our way" This guy is such a prick. Where did he get the idea every time opposite genders interact it means they are a couple?

Behind him, there's bunch of people following him, laughing and giggling after he made fun of me. Oh, so it's another Mr. Popular but the difference is that he is a jerk.

"Sorry man, we are just about to go." Ethan apologized, but according to his tone he seems not genuine and sarcastic.

"Yeah, my bad.. and we are here just for friendly talk by the way." I look straight to his eyes. He really feels entitled and thought I'm afraid of him?

He stared down back at me, "Yeah? Not my problem." before making his way out of the classroom after I moved to the side to make way for him.

"Hey, don't take his words personally. He's always like that." Ethan may noticed my annoyance there because of that entitled jerk attitude.

"Right.." I replied. Before another moment of silence came.
..
..

"...Well, I have to go before the cafeteria got crowded. Can't really wait to see some new foodies there" I smiled, before turning around slowly while waving him, walking away after.

I kept walking even though I've heard a footsteps near me. I let myself take the other side so they can pass by and without being irritated on how slow I am.

Until a tall figure can be seen beside me, I shift my gaze to the corner of my eye to see...

"Are you following me, Ethan?" I asked, while looking up at him.

"Yeah, what else am I doing now" He smiled wider than the last time, followed by a chuckle.

"I wanted to get lunch as well. Looking forward to new foodies you mentioned though." He continued before putting both of his hands into his jeans pocket.

"Great.." I said while nodding myself.
