Will you be my Boyfriend ?

CAN I HAVE YOUR NUMBER ?

I take a seat on the last bench in Dylan's row .
Our teacher walks in and I notice that he's quite young and new to the school . He is good looking and I suddenly remember Aria gushing but a new hot teacher in school . This must be the infamous Mr. Edward Styles .
He places his books on the table and looks at everyone , then he smiles," Bonjour ! I am your new French teacher and my name Edward Styles . And no I am not related to the world famous Harry Styles in anyway ." This causes us to chuckle .
" Hopefully I will learn all of your names over a month or so . And I am sure all the teachers will give you the same boring instructions and so I'll skip it since you all know it .There are only two rules in my class , don't be rude to me and for gods sake be punctual. You will have a lot of projects and assignments and because I know how tiring it is I will put you all in pairs and all the projects and assignments will be done with your partner for the rest of the year ."
I like him , he isn't boring or overly strict and it doesn't hurt that he is a treat for the eyes . I'll enjoy learning French . He proceeds to take the list of students names and starts randomly announcing and marking pairs , all I could do is pray that luck is on my side for once and I get paired with Dylan . As he finishes half the pairs people get up to sit with their respective partners to get acquainted . Then ," And Dylan Young with ..."
" Shannon Jones ." My heart sinks right down to my ass . Dammit .
Soon after that I get paired up with Mike whose is one of the lads on the football team. He grins as he takes a seat next to me ," Heya partner ! " I reciprocate with a forced smile which I hope fools him . He is a good guy and all but he isn't who I wanted to be partnered with . But then this isn't his fault at all so I can't be unnecessarily rude to him . We start talking about basketball and sir finishes pairing people up. Suddenly Shannon stands up and says ," Excuse me sir but can I please be partnered with Mike because we live really close to each other and that would be convenient for the projects ?" Convenience my foot , she is totally crushing on Mike and even sir realises it but he still says," Okay then , Shannon switch with Mike's partner." I feel this strong urge to just hug Shannon for her selfish ways , Mike also seems happier about this arrangement and I take my stuff to sit next to Dylan. Before I can smile at him he says," I am so sorry that you are stuck with a nerd for the rest of the year, I know you would rather be partnered with Mike ." He looks sincerely sorry about this and I am speechless , I thought my fascination with him was obvious . " Are you crazy ? I am much happier being your partner. We made a good team when we were lab partners in freshman year , remember ?" That was how I had started crushing on him in the first place , hours spent mixing chemicals and talking about our favourite shows and books .
He smiles ,"Oh yeah, we did well ."
I really hope I am not blushing because of our close proximity. After telling us the brief scope of this year's French lessons the class ends . Just when I am gathering my things I turn to him ," Hey Dylan ? Can I have your number ? You know to maintain contact for projects and all and because ..." I awkwardly trail off and I am blushing profusely. He gives me an amused look and then chuckles ," Because we are friends ? Sure let me type it into your phone ." I hand him my unlocked phone and at this point I could probably fry bacon on my face . I get so awkward around him it's cringeworthy , but at least I have his number now . He calls his phone from mine to save my number and then hands mine back . "Bye Reha." Then he walks away .
I love the way my name sounds when he says it . But then again I love everything he does or says . Is my obsession unhealthy ? I think so .
I walk out of class with a goofy smile on my face and run right into Dean . " Woah what's with that smile ? What have you been snorting again ? Without me !!"
I give him a dazed smile," Dylan ." And that one name gives him enough of an explanation .
He chuckles at me and drags me to my next class .
Soon it's time for lunch and I head to the cafeteria . The food there sucks so I go to the vending machine and get a few packets of chips and biscuits .
Once I reach the table I see that Kyle has brought pizza and he offers me some , which I gladly accept . Who the hell in their right mind would reject pizza ?
I put all of the packets I bought in the middle of the table so everyone can share and then keep 2 aside for me and Dean . He soon arrives and starts pigging out on the food . I tune out of the conversation on the table which revolves around when the football practice is starting and and something about cheerleading . I take out my phone to glance at Dylan's contact and notice that he put the glasses emoji next to his name . How adorable .
Basically lunch passes uneventfully and while heading out I stop by the group of girls who are on the basketball team with me . " Hey ! How are you all ?" I ask and I get a variety of responses and then Melanie asks me if I heard about the practices . "No I dint hear about it . When are they starting ? "
" Next week actually . Oh and I heard that you and Lia are in the running for captain this year ." She giggles excitedly before wishing me the best of luck .
This sends me in a vortex of thoughts . Me against Lia ? She was one of the three seniors on our team and a really good player . Just the fact that I was up against her for captain ship was enough to make beam with pride , whether I got it or not .
I realize that it's just the first day of school and I am already so happy . I wonder what the rest of the year holds for me .
