Reincarnated in a Wattpad Story

Three's enough

You stepped in your second period class, and thankfully you had it all to yourself! You didn't have to worry about Ace or Asher. You breathed a sigh of relief before Noah, your childhood best friend, came up to you by surprise. 

"Oh hey Noah! You came early."

"I'd always come early for you! By the way, what happened? You look relieved. Did something happen?"

"Nothing really that important. It's fine."

"Have you heard of that new student that came in today? He's got such a nice car!"

"Yeah.... hehe..." you nervously laughed.

"Rumor has it that some girl was holding his hand as they were walking to the school doors. I think they said it was-"

"Nope! I was not doing that! Most of the rumors here aren't close to real."

"Well to be fair, some rumors here had some truth to them..."

"Only some but not this one!"

"Yeah that rumor sounds unbelievable. I hope that wasn't you in the rumor though."

"Don't worry... it's not."

"Are you hiding anything?"

"Nope. I don't even know what's going on."

That's when the teacher tells the class to be quiet before she walks up to the board to project the  lesson. Everyone takes out their notebooks and starts writing the notes shown on the board. You were still thinking about the ridiculousness of what just happened, so copying the notes before the teacher switched the slide was impossible. 

You had to get this stupid thought out before Noah starts to worry about you. 

Noah was your best friend since elementary school, so you two had known each other for quite some time. He's can read people's expressions and knows how someone is feeling, which amazed you. He was a great friend. Although, sometimes you feel like he cares about you a little too much...

But it was probably nothing.

After that, and third period, it was time to go to fourth period. During third period, your mind started to get off of that thought, and how you would be perceived at school now. You had gotten some bad looks from some of the girls, and it made you feel bad. You didn't want to "take" their potential boyfriend. You were an average person living their average life. 

The slow-walkers in front of you in the hallway made you just barely get to fourth period in time before the bell rang. You suddenly remembered that Ace had shared this class with you! A group of girls at one table started talking about how hot he was. They scrolled through pictures he had posted on a social media app.

You saw Ace sitting at another table that was next to yours, and he smiled at you. You kind of wanted to smile back but you were too awkward, so you just gave a half-smile. 

"God, that was actually so embarrassing... I should've smiled." You thought as you plopped your backpack on the ground next to your seat. 

While the teacher was teaching, you put your backpack on your lap and snuck out your phone to look up the pictures of Ace. You discovered that he, indeed, had social media. He seemed to take pictures of himself around the world in places like France, Germany, Greece, Japan, and the UK. It wasn't a surprise he could afford that though... and the food he took pictures of looked very fancy. It made you hungry for lunch already.

After class, you were so hungry for anything. Thankfully lunch was after this period, so you began to make your way to the cafeteria but Ace stopped you.

"Oh.. hi." You said.

"Hi! Wanna join me for lunch?"

"Sure. But I have homework to make up in the library. Wanna join me there? But we can't eat."

"I'm fine with that. Anything for you, y/n!"

"Uhmm.. I don't know why you said it like that."

"No reason. I just already got attached to you!"

You two headed to the library and settled down and Ace agreed to help you with homework, since it was true that he was well educated. He claims he could've skipped a grade if we truly wanted to. Makes you wonder why he didn't just do that.

That's when Asher entered the library and went to your guys' table. Ace glared at him and you just stood there in silence as chaos unfolded.

"Hey! What are you doing here?"

"I followed you guys. Care if I join?"

"I don't think y/n tolerates losers like you!"

"Um.. guys-" You said, trying to break up the chaos.

"It's fine y/n. I won't let him anywhere near you. You know how dangerous he is. Don't tell me you're on his side!" Ace said.

"I'm not. I just don't think we should be arguing in the library. Thank god everyone's at the cafeteria..."

"You're right y/n! We should go somewhere else..." Asher said with a smirk.

"Shut up Asher! Don't even think about it!" Ace yelled.

"Y'know I can hear you, right?", said a familiar voice. It sounded a lot like...

"NOAH!?" You exclaimed, as he poked his head around the corner of a library shelf.

"Yeah... it's me. Didn't think that girl who walked with Ace was actually you...

"No it's not what it looks like. I don't know what they're arguing about."

"Jeez, I can already predict how it's gonna go... you're gonna date Ace and forget me?"

"What are you talking about? Noah, you're not-"

"Oh! Forget what I said! That just slipped out!". He covered his mouth.

"Hmm... Noah might like you.. hehe." Said Asher.

"No- I don't! It's just something best friends do!"

"Yeah yeah.. keep lying to yourself."

Noah was getting angry, and you and Ace watched in silence.
