love makes it all better

Chapter 2

As I was making my way to class as quietly and not making my presence known as I could be, I "accidentally" tripped and my books fell down. I sighed and bent down to pick my books as this was the normal routine every morning.

Once I got to my seat at the middle of the class, I brought out the novel I was reading the previous night when I couldn't sleep. As the whole class was waiting on the teacher to come, I could hear whispers about coming from the cheerleaders behind me that Drake is returning back to school.

Am sure you are wondering who Drake is. Drake was the basketball god of Clarkson High School before he mysteriously disappeared a year ago. And if you check your dictionary for the word, irresponsible the picture of Drake will be staring at you. He is about 6ft 2". Brown hair and a killer smile.

The teacher entered the class grinning. The teacher said, "I know you've all heard about Drake returning back to school".
I could hear the cheerleaders behind me squealing. Oh and did I mention that Drake is also an academic genius and got all the teachers wrapped around his little finger, though his finger is not really little considering his size but whatever you get what I mean. He only got some drinking problems and he sleeps with everything that has a vagina.

He entered the class and I could hear his fellow jocks hailing him and the cheerleaders squealing especially his ex - girlfriend, Natalie, the girl he was dating before he disappeared and the other girls sighing dreamily as they gaze at him and even the teacher was grinning widely. You know, I've never seen her smile that wide before not even when her husband proposed to her. Don't ask me how I know that. As the only sane person in the class, I only rolled my eye.

"Just find a seat and sit down. No need to introduce yourself, they all remember you", the teacher said. His fellow jocks reserved a seat for him and his ex - girlfriend Natalie also saved a seat beside her at the expense of one of her best friends, Sasha. I guess when you see the "love of you life" you forget your best friends. Oh and there is a free seat beside me. I kept debating in my head who he will seat with. He was moving in my direction, and I could tell he was going to seat with Natalie. So I just concentrated on the novel I was reading.

"May I sit here?", said Drake. Thinking he was talking to Natalie, I concentrated on my novel until he repeated if he could sit beside me.
I heard the whole class and including the teacher gasp. I could only nod my head in answer.

The teacher started the class and I was jotting down points the teacher was saying with rapt attention until I heard Drake shift closer to me.
"You are Brooke, right?"
