Chapter 4- Staring Problem

Song: Sugar- Robin Schulz

**********
"Your late Mr. Matthews," Mr. G practically yawns. "Everyone this is our new student, Alec Matthews. It is his first day and we all know how that can be like. So make him feel comfortable."

"I think I'll be just fine." He says, probably looking at me. I stared at my desk trying to avoid his scrutinizing gaze. He had a very deep voice, but it was in a good way. I think I even heard sighs from girls and some guys too.

Why does he have to be here? Seriously, I can practically see 'bad boy' written all over his forehead.

And his name? Wow. Talk about a coincidence.

"Take a seat wherever there's an empty desk." Mr. G looks like he's about to fall asleep but that's not what I'm worrying about. There's only like 2 other empty seats left, aside from the one next to mine. I have a very bad feeling about how this will turn out.

He better not sit next to me, fingers and toes crossed.

I hear someone clear their throat and my breath hitches. My heart beat is racing and I am pretty sure Alec can hear it thumping wildly too.

"Is this seat taken?" He asks me while taking a seat next to me anyway. Of course he chooses to sit next to me. I always get what I don't want.

"I guess now it is," I say with clench teeth. I look around and see everyone's eyes on the two of us. Even sleepy Mr. G is paying attention to our little conversation. If you can even call it that.

"Great." He smiles at me and I get a glimpse of his perfectly straight white teeth. Like no lie, its like he got them done or something like that.

I look straight ahead and try to concentrate on what Mr. G is trying to teach, everyone has finally stopped staring. But its hard to concentrate because I can feel Alec staring right at me when he's suppose to be looking straight ahead. I try not to stare back, but his stare was very tempting to look back at. Especially with those electric blue eyes of his.

I even caught his gaze several times, for a couple of seconds, before I'd abruptly turn away.

I huff in annoyance. I was starting to get really mad. I mean he was doing this on purpose, right? I mean why else would you stare at a person for so long.

Maybe he likes what he sees. Shut it. I swear my self conscious is so annoying and no help at all.

That can't possible be the reason....right? I mentally smack my head. I am so getting a headache now.

"Whats on your mind, cupcake?" I turn to the devil himself.

"Nothing," I say visibly rolling my eyes. "And don't call me that."

"Then what should I call you...Sweet cakes?" This time I don't turn my head. I wouldn't have to look to see he was smirking and clearly enjoying himself.

"For the last time don't call me that," I turn to his face and wished I hadn't bother. He was way to close for my liking. He was looking at my eyes but I felt like he was looking through my soul. His rosy thick lips were parted and I could feel his breath fanning my face. He smelled like minty gum. Yes, we were that close.

"Umm..." I straighten my back and scratch my head. Well, that was awkward. But when is it not awkward when it comes to my life?

He clears his throat and I took that as a sign that he felt the awkwardness too. The class was quiet and we all payed attention to the smartboard.

::::::::::::::::::::::::

"So stranger...why don't we change that?" He suddenly asked giving me glance. I wouldn't consider myself a stranger in his point of view. I mean all this awkwardness we shared seems like forever.

Its been 20 minutes since our little weird talking session and we haven't been talking at all ever since. Until now.

"Change what?" What needed changing? Did I miss something?

"Your name," he said simply in a 'duh' kind of voice.

"What about?" I'm so confused.

"What I meant was, you should tell me your name."

Face palm. I never told him my name? I'm pretty sure I did sometime during our mini banter.

"Well, it's-" The bell rang and everyone started to head for their next class. Beth got up too but not before she gave me a look and wiggled her eyebrows. I could just imagine whats on her mind

I stood up as well, but I felt dragged down from Alec's eyes that were still staring at me.

"I guess you'll just have to find out," I say trying to hold back my smile.
