Joe's world

chapter 6

When I entered my first class all my problems flew out the window . I looked around the classroom and my eyes immediately spotted a beautiful specimen . The mysterious girl was back again . She was sitting in my usual seat and I inwardly groaned wishing she would spare time me the talk and move to a different seat . I wasn't very good at confrontation which I why I avoided human contact at all times . I tended to ramble my way out of things .

I scanned around the room and found that there were many seats available so why did she pick that chair . She looked to be in deep thought , I could tell from how she mindlessly played with her pen in between her long porcelain fingers . Her bottom lip was jutted out slightly which reminded me of a little girl pouting . That's cute .

I quickly made my way to stand beside my seat . She didn't acknowledge me as she continued playing with her pen .

The class was fairly empty as the students piled up by the door . One crazy boy decided that he wasn't going to make use of the door and came in the the open window . I disapprovingly shook my head at him and he narrowed his eyes at me before taking his seat .

" People are crazy ." I muttered .

When I was just about to say something , someone cleared their throat behind me . I  timidly said my apologies abd looked back at the person behind me .

In the midst of the crowd , stood a very handsome boy . There were a group of girls following behind him . He was handsome with very sharp and hypnotising features . His chiseled high cheek bones were tinted with shades of pink , probably from blushing . His sharp jawline could cut through anything , even my ego .

He had short dirty blond hair and hazel eyes that complemented his face very well . He must be some Greek God I thought foolishly . I was envious of him , he was everything I wanted to be .

His full attention was on the girls standing around him and anyone could tell that they amused him . He kept laughing at something they said which I found very humourless . His sense of humour made me cringe . I recognised one of the girls from the girl from the cheerleading squad .

The handsome boy completely ignored apology and brushed past me towards his desk followed by a bunch of rowdy students . From the looks of everything this guy was popular . His demeanor oozed confidence and  in my years of high school , I have never seen someone who possessed so much greatness in such a small world . I wasn't even aware that he was in any of my classes .

My math entered the classroom carrying her briefcase in hand . She was an old lady , some say that she loved cats more than she did humans . I believe that Mrs Brentwood was a very misunderstood person , just because she had thousands of cats in her home didn't mean she hated humans .

As she entered the class everyone rushed to their seats pushing against me in the process . I was still standing awkwardly as I watched the class become a scrambled mess .

" Alright , everyone calm down and have a seat . " the teacher announced .

I opted on taking a seat next to my old one  . I didn't understand why but I wanted to make a first good impression on the new student , maybe she could potentially be a close friend of mine . She seemed harmless and I had a good feeling about her .

I sat down quietly and took out my math book and looked around the classroom nervously . Everyone was settled and ready for the lesson .

A boy had just entered the class . His hair was a mess and judging by the sweat on his face he had just came from the gym . Elijah Thomas was an average student with good grades , he just needed help with his math . I once had to tutor him in 8th grade but he refused working with me had . He said he didn't want to work with a weirdo . He took his seat in the front after apologising to the teacher in front for coming late .
