WHITNEY'S POV

It was good to here that we will be having a school project day. Theme, "Art Students Project Day". From the twenty students in our class, we where grouped into four. Five members in each group. We were to have an interclass competition, inter school competition and finals.

I was the only one in arts class from my group of friends and I would be working with new people.

I was paired with Tessa, Victor, Max and an unknown boy. We all agreed to meet at the music Hall after school.

I guess I was just too excited for the meeting that I got there before everyone. While waiting for them, I place my gaze at the beautiful arts drawing on the wall. It had the picture of Alec Benjamin my favourite musician. After staring at it for a while, I walked up to the piano where I started playing my favourite music piece.

When I managed to get my hands off the keyboard, I heard noise of someone clapping. I raised my head up only to see a cute tall slim guy with curly hair standing in front of me. I couldn't help but stare at those cute eyes and red lips. He was well dressed and neat.

" That was amazing" He said putting a smile on his face exposing his cute dimples.

" Thanks" I said standing up and pulling myself towards him.

" I'm Xavier and you" He said extending his hand for a hand shake.

" Whitney" I said grabbing his hand.

" I guess we have to wait for the others to arrive before planning out anything" Xavier clarified

" Hm" I briefed.

We both began to talk and tell each other things about what we have been through. Tessa walked in shortly.

" Hey guys!" She greets

" Hello! late comers" Xavier said making her feel sad a thought flip through my mind ' is he this rude ' then I guess that's how they play with them selves I let that go because it didn't concern me.

"Dummy" Tessa replied with her hands lifting on his back he felt the pain and jumped up in astonishment.

They continued their argument then max and Victor walked in like they we not late, they strolled in and said " hi guys"

"Here comes the professional late comers"Xavier said leaving a LC (late comers) behind.

We discussed about our project and dismissed

****
It was the following day and the day was bright and sunny. Everything seems normal and Mandy and I where already set for school. Aunt Pat could not take us to school because she has to finish up something important at the office, so we took public transportation down to school.

We went late and by the time we got there, it was already first period. Mrs Jane the Literature teacher was already in class.

People call her mean, evil and a sadist . She was always on her own and never happy. I was going to get punished for coming late to her class but it was nothing. I rather get punished than to miss this amazing subject.

" Good morning ma"I greeted panting

"Hm"  sighed and ignored me.

I kept on standing there waiting for her to ask me to sit but what she said almost made me cry. I actually cried.

" So you had better stand there watching me teach than sit down. Now get out of my class you lunatic" she said in a very angry way with those deadly eyes.

I was unable to move for some second. Her mean words still ran through my head. She was my inspiration and now I started hating her. I managed to leave the class and I ran as fast as my legs could carry me. When I stopped, I was already in the field. I burst into tears as her word echoed in my ears.

" You can have this" someone stretched me a towel to wipe my face.

" Thanks. Looking up, it was Xavier.

" You know you are more beautiful  when you cry right" he teased and I smiled slightly.

" Cute eyes and round face. Gorgeous, cute and pretty. Intelligent and down to earth.

I laughed really and stopped when I caught him staring at me. My heart skipped a bit because no one has ever complimented me before.

" There, I finally got you to laugh"

" You are so funny"

" This is just the beginning of me. You will get to know me more" he said as he settled his lips on me chick. My heart began to beat faster than the usual. He pulled me closer for a hug. I guess after that, I was able to forget about what happened. He took me back to the classroom.

While we entered the class, everyone whisper secretly and most of them said it out openly.

" Mrs Jane's victim" Tom laugh out loud and everyone joined him expect a few friends of mine. I don'tcare about them. I only went to my sit and sat down quietly.

        Xavier POV
I was with Angel during the short break. We where sitted hugging each other and romancing ourselves when Whitney walked in. I forgot to tell her that when I'm with my girl, she should come near me. Angel was the jealous type and hate to see other girls stare at me talk more of come close to me. She would go wide and attempt to fight.

" Hey Xavi" she greets

I pretended as if I didn't see her but she walked closer to me.

" Hey lunatic, what's your problem? He doesn't want to talk to you leave" Angel poured out hatchly.

" Hey White" I answered trying not to make a fool out of her. She called me 'Xavi' in Angel's present, "shit".

" Bae why are you answering her?"

" You know what White, I will join you shortly." I said trying to avoid the problem Angel was about causing. She left in disappointment.

" What was the meaning of that?"

"You know what, just let that slide. She's only my class mate and team mate "

" What ever" she uttered frowning.

I pulled her for a tight hug and kisses her passionately. I knew that will relieve her and put smile on face. Though I was with her but my mind was not there. I kept on thinking about Whitney and I wanted to see her soon. I thought of an excuse to leave Angel.
