The Way You See Me

Crying (3)

if you hold me without hurting me you'll be the first who ever did- Lana Del Rey

"He's name is Ethan" she says.

Even his name suits him.

"Oh" i say, "does he have a girlfriend" i say looking away from him and at Rosy.

"No, he doesn't. He look or try to act tough on the outside but in the inside he's such a softy" she says.

I look at her, "how do you know this?" I ask her curiously.

"He's Diego's best friend, the three of us would hang out all the time when me and Diego were together" she says.

Ethan looks our way, he looks at rosy and gives her a small head nod, she waved back at him.

Suddenly his eyes land on me.

His green eyes staring at my brown eyes.

I look away from him first, i can't do this to myself.

I can't be with anyone else again, not now, not ever.

"I say go for it, you guys would be such a good looking couple plus he's a nice guy" Rosy says next to me.

"I don't know, I don't know if I can put myself through that again" i say, looking down as I play with my fingers.

"I understand" she says and drops the subject.

The teacher soon begins class, he starts talking this class and first semester.

Thankful- "Okay class! Before I forget we have a new student in school"

I was going to say thankfully he hasn't made me introduce myself to the class but never mind.

I stand up with shaky hands, all eyes on me.

"Hello! My name is Stella" i say and sit back down.

Ethan stares at me a little longer after everyone turns away, Rosy nudges my arm.

I turn to her confused, "looks like someone is interested in you" she says with a smirk.

"Rosy!" I say quietly.

The rest of the classes went by fast and before I knew it, it was already lunch.

"So I was thinking of trying out for cheerleading! " i say excitedly.

She smiles "I think you should do it! Cheerleading try outs are after school " she says.

"Omg you should do it with me!" I say, she shakes her head.

"I don't think so stells" she says.

"Just think about it!" I say and she nods.

We go back to talking about things that pop up into our heads.

I feel someone's eyes on me, i don't like it.

"Someone can't take their eyes off of you" Rosy says.

I don't turn around.

"Well nothing is going to happen between me and him" i say nervously.

"We'll see about that" she says smiling like a little kid when it's Christmas.

Lunch is soon over and there's only three more classes to go.

My next class is Spanish, sadly the rest of school i don't have any more classes with Rosy but we agreed to meet at her locker after school.

I find the class and go in, I sit in the back.

The students are slowly arriving, the teacher still isn't here though.
