《teaser ; Alex》

"Is that her?" I glanced up to see three boys crowded into the entrance of the library.

"Cal, that's her!" One of the boys boomed. "Go over there!" His enthusiastic voice carried through the quiet room ever so easily. I watched as this enthusiastic character pushed a shy little lad over my way. My heart skipped as my eyes studied the tanned figure who was rapidly approaching me. His hair lies in a ruffled quiff on top of his head and his eyes hold the darkest shade of brown. With my eyes trailing down his body, I took notice of his school button down rolled up to the elbows and his black slacks along with multiple tattoos. The boy that I bumped in to yesterday. I can't even begin to describe how much I hated myself for being so clumsy and awkward. I bumped into him and threw my books at his feet surely he hated me already. Not to mention, I'm quite sure that he saw up the skirt to this stupid ass uniform that I have to wear now too. I feel a blush creep up onto my cheeks yet I'm quick to snap myself from my thoughts, however and my eyes dart back to my lightly illuminated computer screen in attempt to resume my studies. Except, I just sit there. I only think of the boys and how they're going to come over. I can't help but hold my breath until they do, though. My head spins and my heart flutters as I sit in anticipation but before I can fall apart, I'm pulled together by a quiet utterance of a single syllable.

"Hey," the boy says softly with a shiny white smile. He quickly averts his gaze before looking back up to me. My eyes slowly move up to meet his.

I am captivated.
