Fallen - Re

Chapter 1

Rose POV

I could feel him watching me again. The hairs on the back of my neck stood up while I slowly turned around. My emerald eyes met with sapphire eyes. "Why is he staring at me?" I thought to myself.

"Rose...Rose! Can you read the next paragraph?"

"Sorry Mr. Lucien" I mumbled. "Ummm..."

Ding ding ding. Saved by the bell!

"Miss Canto, I suggest you follow along with the rest of the class next time."

My cheeks burned while my classmates snickered around me. I hurriedly packed my notebooks and laptop into my backpack and shot up and out of the classroom before I could embarrass myself further.

Oooof! I was met with a hot and solid wall right outside the door.

"Hey, you're Rose, right?" The boy with the sapphire eyes inquired in the deepest melodious voice I have ever heard.

"Um yes, Rose Canto. Who are you?"

"I'm Damien Jones."

"Well, it's nice to meet you but I really need to get to my next class." I started to walk off when I felt a large hand on my elbow.

"I'll walk you. It must suck being new and not knowing where any of the classrooms are."

I looked up into those hypnotic eyes and could see my reflection in them.

"Hey Rose? You, ok?" Damien asked.

"Oh yes. I am sorry I was daydreaming. Sure, if you could walk me to my next class I would appreciate it. I'm in the Westmore building for theatre next."

"Of course I would be happy to. So...how did you end up in Mill City, Oregon? We don't get a lot of new people in this school so it is nice to see a new face."

"I just moved from Texas. I spent most of my childhood there and recently my grandfather and grandmother both passed away and left our family their house, so we decided to move in. So now I'm in my senior year in a new school, in a new state and in a new house." Damn now I'm venting. This dude is going to think I'm dramatic.

"Well, that sucks but at least you have one new friend." Damien shoots me a wink and my cheeks heat up again. Be cool Rose. He probably winks at every girl. I mean look at him. With his dark brown chocolate hair, eyes bluer than the deepest part of the ocean, a good 6 inches taller than me, bulging tan arms, probably from football, and a voice that would make an angel weep, he can literally have any girl he wants.

"Thank you." I whispered

"Alright Rose we are here. I have to get to my class but I hope to see you soon." Damien shoots me a perfect smile with sexy dimples. Keep it in your pants Rose.

Damien POV

I watch Rose as she walked away. My eyes followed the sway of her hips as her silhouette became smaller.

"Damien!" Shit not her.

I start sprinting away to escape the annoying high pitched voice of Layla.

"Sorry I'm running behind for class!" I start running even faster to make sure she can't catch up. I reached my algebra class and darted inside and onto my chair next to my brother.

"Hey dude where the hell have you been? You're never running late. You find someone to make out with on the way to class?" My twin brother Brent snickered.

"Shut the hell up dude." I whispered.

"Boys do you mind sharing with the class what's more important than algebra?" Mrs. Meyers asked with an arched brow.
