Geek Transformation.

Chapter 5.

I still couldn't believe I was holding hands with Slade....being chased by cops.

Great....that's just great. Thanks cops, for absolutely nothing at all!

Even if I was angry at first, he made me feel....I don't even know, such an unexplainable way within me.

The way his strong arms lifted me up into the air, safely placing me on the other side of the fence, the way his fingers perfectly were intertwined with mine when he got a hold of my hand and hasn't let go of it ever since.

It helped me not focus on the fact that if we didn't run fast enough we would get jumped by a bunch of cops then get arrested.

And trust me that doesn't look good on a geek's record.

Trying my hardest not to stop I force my legs to keep up with Slade pulling my hand so I won't fall behind.

Finally we came to a stop.

I stand against a large wall from an abandoned alley we had entered trying to catch my breath from all the running.

"I think we lost them" he states breathing heavily his arms a few inches above my head pressed against the wall for support.

"You ok?" he asks.

But I didn't answer.

I couldn't.

The wall was so big, and yet he was so close.

His body was pressed against mine as our faces were just inches away.

I could feel the warmth of his breath on my face, and the way our body touched made mine shiver within.

I was afraid if I did speak, there would be no space left.

So I just stood there, frozen, my eyes locked with his.

"Grace" he spoke softy leaning in.

At this moment I was literally stuck in the position I was, my body couldn't move.

It was as if he had these invisible chains wrapped around my entire body.

I thought I was going to pass out right there and then! It was insane.

Is he really about to make that move, on the geek?

Oh please why would someone ever do that. To ruin their whole life?

Yeah, you're probably right voice inside my head that makes me more depressed in life than I already am.

Thanks!

You're welcome.

"Are you ok?" he repeats stopping his forehead gently pressed against mine as he looked down at me waiting for my answer.

His voice snapping me back from arguing within me.

"Uh.." I begin but can't continue because the voice inside my head starts to speak again.

You see! Why would someone like Slade Johnson wanna kiss you?

And are you retarded?, he's asking you a simple question!

Would you just shut up already!?

He backed away, sadly.

Looking at me patiently waiting for my answer.

I could notice his expressions showed puzzlement.

Which meant I was clearly making a fool out of myself.

Yay.

I nod rapidly clearly my throat nervously looking down at my boots.

"Sorry" I mumble.
