I hold his gaze for longer, showing that im not timid or weak.
After several more seconds I decide to break the silence, "Hello?"
I waited in anticipation for this boy to stop staring and say something, until he eventually parted his lips to say something:
"Wow you're a cutie, I betcha moved here just for me right ?" he said pointing to himself like an idiot.
I felt my forehead growing hotter with increasing anger and embarrassment; honestly, if I wasn't so stressed I would probably laugh at his idiocy.
"No, move out the way please." As I push past him. I became aware of how I sounded and saw in his eyes that it stung for a second, but he recovered quickly. I continue down my original path and I now have 2 minutes. I was never late a single time back home, what a change.
While I'm in the middle of speed walking I feel a firm hand on my shoulder as the boy from earlier stops me in my tracks,
"Hey, where's your class? I can help; I know your new" with a genuine smile that seems to apologize for being annoying earlier.
Without further hesitation I show him my phone, knowing he's sadly my only option. He examines the phone and I see his face light up,
"Hey, we have the same home room, let me take you there!"
I slightly doubt him but accept with a nod. He started walking unusually slowly to the class:
"Hey, what's your name?" he inquired, his hands folded on the back of his head.
Forget that, "You know we have like 2 minutes right?"
I guess he didn't because of his expression. "Shit my mom will kill me if I get another detention, let's go." he quickly grabbed my hand which startles me, but I go along with it anyways.
I was taken aback by how fast this kid was, it was like I was flying when I was with him. We ran for some time until we saw the classroom from afar with the sign above it reading "1A". I have no idea how the bell hasn't rung yet but thank god.
I can already hear the loud chattering from the classroom and prepare myself as Naruto grabs the door frame, popping his head in "Hey sensei, we're here don't mark us late!" The boy said in an exasperated voice as we slid to a stop at the entrance.
I peek inside to see 20 unfamiliar looking back at me, fixated.
I then realized that I'm still holding on to this kids hand and pull away quickly.
I wish it was noisy again because the silence was truly excruciating. I glance around the room looking at my new classmates, there is a blonde girl with her bangs covering an eye, a brunette with space buns, and I look over to see a raven haired-boy who was immersed in his book.
To my surprise, he then broke his concentration to look in my direction, his face resting on his hand. We made eye contact for a few seconds, his expression was unreadable, before I broke away. He was weird, his gaze just made me feel like I was see through; though I only broke away because I heard my teacher addressing me.
I felt heat rise to my face remembering the fact that everyone is still watching me.
"Alright, have a seat you two" my new sensei answered mid-yawn, this guy was just asleep wasn't he?
