Chapter 2

"Wait!" I yelled after him. We were now in the hallway and he stopped pulling me. Thank God! but no, a lot of students in the hallway were looking at us and he was smirking! I was pretty sure the girls were murmuring about him, because like I said, he was hot!

"What's up with you?" I examined my wrist because I was positive I'd get bruise with his tight grab. Ok, so I asked this questions a lot just this morning. But seriously? People were odd today.

"Did I hurt you?" His face was worried as he examined my wrist too.

"I'm sorry." He said as soon as he saw the red mark on my wrist. I shrugged and started walking to the hallway that led to the library. He followed me, of course. The thing was, I didn't know why I was helping this dude. I didn't even know him.

"Hold up!" I heard him, catching up to me. I was walking as fast as I could just to get this boy over with. We finally reached the library, I went in and went straight to my favorite spot in the library.

"Thank you, by the way." I could hear the boy still following me, and I was pretty sure he was smiling right now. It was like he knew he could drive girls crazy with just his smile.

When I reached my 'spot', I felt so relieved that the boy was finally gone. Thank God! I couldn't spend another minute, no no, another second with him around. Seriously, I had never been like this for 3 years now. I had never felt my heart beat fast again after what happened to me and Cal.

Cal Brooks was my ex-boyfriend. He was so handsome, nice, like every girl dreamed of, but everything was changed when Josh, the most popular guy in our school, came into our lives. Cal had been the talk of the school for a week, because he was nice, handsome, approachable, kind, everything! And Josh of course got jealous of the attention Cal had, so he threatened Cal that if he would not join their gang/group/whatever, he wwould be expelled from our school. That was not it, to join their gang, Cal should not have relationships with people like me--you know, unpopular. Josh had the power to expell students from our school. He always used that to threaten people. Josh was the same as Amanda, and as far as I know, they had something special between them.

It was already lunch and I was sitting right in front of Megan, who was busy talking about the hot boy she was referring to. But I was busy eating burger and I didn't understand a thing she was saying.

"Alexis!" Megan snapped her fingers several times in front of me.

"Oh yeah, what it is again?" I replied, clueless.

"I researched that boy I saw in the parking lot this morning." She proudly smiled like she just won an award. I nodded and continued eating.

"It turns out that he was expelled because of....the site didn't say what it is, but I'm pretty sure he's a bad boy. Because our school is the only one who's willing to accept him." She made a face that I'm not sure what it was called. I just continued eating my burger, I was so starving. Plus, I was so not interested in this topic.

"I think he's the same as J--" Megan suddenly stopped talking so I looked at her. She looked like she just saw a ghost, her eyes were so big and her jaw dropped. She was not even moving.

"Hey! Are you ok?" I waved at her face to get her attention.

"Th-The.. " She blinked a few times.

"What is it?!" I was becoming impatient.

"A-a-approaching." She sipped her iced tea, and took a bite of her burger and chewed as fast as she could.

"What approaching?! Who's approaching?!" I was slightly shouting at her 'cause jeez I didn't understand what she was trying to say.

"Meg--"

"Hello," That voice was familiar. I was sure I'd heard it this morning. Oh god, not him again. Megan really looked funny right now. Her eyes were so wide and her mouth was full and she was not moving, like she was a statue.

"Hello," A familiar voice repeated itself but louder this time. I turned around and wishing it was not him. But it was him! Couldn't he find his own group of friends? I just rolled my eyes at him and sipped my iced tea. Megan, however, was still stunned.

"Can I sit with you?" He was using his killer smile, again.

"Uhh..yeah sure. We're almost done anyway." I didn't look at him this time. He took the seat next to me and in that instant, I could feel a lot of curious eyes were glued to our table. I stood up and ready to leave while Megan was still in awe.

"Megan, I'll just go to the restroom and probably go straight to my next class." I informed her, she just nodded.

Ok, maybe he wasn't that bad, I mean he was handsome, hot as they all say, but whenever he was with us or me, all the attention were drawn to us and I hated the feeling of it. I didn't want to be the one they were talking about. I was happy now that I was living my life in silent.

I was so so so relieved that I didn't see that boy to any of my classes anymore. Megan texted me that she couldn't give me a ride home because something urgent came up. My brother already left so I took a bus. Once I got home, my mom was making snacks which is unlikely. She never made snacks unless someone was coming over or there was already a guest.

"Where's Anthony? I don't see him in school and the car is not in the garage," I approached my mom while she was cutting potatoes on the counter and her mood was the same as it was this morning.

"Oh, he went to the store to buy materials for his project. Can you get another potato, honey?" She pointed to the potato near the sink. I gave it to her.

"Why are you making snacks? Do we have a visi-" The doorbell suddenly rang.

"That must be them, go get it, sweetie." Them? Who? I opened the door slowly.
