Only in my dreams ( Book one of the Secret Embrace Series)

Adien Scott

CH.2 ADIEN SCOTT

I walk to art in a better mood. My body has finally decided to wake up and I can actually think. Emma walks up to me in her usually hyper mood and starts talking about how she heard of someone cheating on someone with somebody else. Basically the same old same old. I try to listen and nod and "omg " at the appropriate times but all I can ponder on was what did I dream about last night it keeps bugging me because I feel like it was important...ugh why can't I ever remember them. I don't think I have ever been able to remember my dreams...nope never.

When we finally get to class the bell has rang and everyone is getting to whatever they want to do today. I walk over to the poetry section. I am really good at poetry...aside from Emma not a lot of people care its one thing I like to keep to myself. Emma walks over to the popular kids who are painting so I am left to myself in the back.

Ms. Nelson walks to the front of the room in her dramatic fashion, " today class I want you to expand your minds I want you to think about your dreams and where they take you..."

Aside from my daydreaming mine take me no where..I wonder if other people have this problem. My thinking is cut off by a faint knock on the door.

Ms. Nelson stops and tells them to come in. He walks in the room and everyone goes quiet...I try not to stare but its hard not to ...he looks so familiar..but where have I seen someone like him? He casually walks across the room. He doesn't act uncomfortable with most of the girls with their mouth hung open and everyone staring he just acts like he is oblivious to it.

He gives Ms. Nelson a slip and she introduces him to the class.

" Class I would like you to give Mr. Adien Scott here a hardy welcome he will be your new student here in this class! Mr. Scott find any seat you would like I am sure my students don't bite."

" Speak for yourself." someone whispers and everyone starts laughing and whispering to one another.

Emma tries to get my attention but I am now trying to focus on my notebook and why he seems so familiar..I look up long enough to see him walking straight for me...oh no! please don't! He sits down in the seat across from mine and its takes everything in me to keep looking at my notebook.

Focus Ash! You have never acted like this before so what if he is handsome that doesn't mean anything! But my curiosity gets the better of me and I steal a peek..he looks way better than I thought. His hair is so dark its almost black it curls right near his eyes and his build is strong not THE HULK strong but the kind you don't want to mess with ethier, his jaw is in a relaxed state...but his eyes is what gets me they are so green its unreal like almost neon ...where have I seen those eyes before...

Before my mind can begin to process it he looks away. I try to act like I wasn't staring but who can I fool...I know my cheeks are red as they can be.

"Hello, my name is Adien Scott ...and I take it you like poetry?". he looks at me like he is looking for something in my eyes and now my words get stuck in my throat.

"uh um yeeah wait what?" Really that's what my brain comes up with! Awesome way to make me sound like a total idiot! Good job brain keep coming up with that sorta stuff and we could be dating in ten years ..wait did I just say date?

" poetry...since you are sitting here I take it you like poetry?". He gives a small smile and starts writing in his notebook that he has pulled out.

I can't think straight to even try to write a poem so much for that idea so I just stare out the window hoping for anything like maybe a comet to hit me! Then the bell rings and I almost trip getting out of my desk... I really hope he didn't see that..I turn around and look but he is already gone...hmmm weird.I try to keep my head down in the hallway to my locker.

Emma races to my side as soon as I get to the thing before I can even begin to figure out my cursed combination. " OMG DID YOU SEE THAT GUY!". She tosses back her blonde hair and tries her best to get my attention. "Earth to Ash!... Ash! ...HEllo!."

" what guy?" ... I play dumb hoping she will let it go. I hope she didn't notice my delay.

" Come on Ash you're not blind the guy that came in late the NEW guy! she laughs and stops me she looks down the hallway and coughs the guy that is staring at you.."

I look to where she is staring and sure enough he is standing there in all his gloriousness... LOOKING AT ME! I can literally feel my face turning red..wonderfreakingful.

" he is not staring at me maybe he is staring at you." I try to say and give up on the stupid combination since my focus is now on who the hell this guy is?

" yeah OR maybe you're just full of" she starts to say more but the bell to lunch rings.
