The shock of what Gansey had said still hadn't gone away, it lessened, but it was still there. I was currently seated at my usual lunch table, while sage talked my ear off. But my mind was in a completely different place. I was thinking of how Gansey was going to get detention. I mean why would someone do that, was he that desperate to get a friend? I really hope he doesn't do something stupid just to get detention. I didn't tell Nathan or Sage about what Gansey had said. What would they think of him? I just hope he doesn't make it obvious that hes getting detention to hang out with me. Dear god, don't make me face him today again. It will be so awkward if I do see him again. I mean what am i gonna say? 'Hey, did you manage to get that detention yet?' Ha. Yeah I don't think so...

My train of thoughts were broken when Sage snapped her fingers right in front of my face making me jump out of my seat and manage to knock my food all over my clothes. Great, just great. Sage bursted out into laughter, just as Nathan walked up to us. He eyed me up and down, then he too fell into a seat as he clutched his stomach and he shook uncontrollably from laughter.

"oh...my....I'm..s...sorry.......ha ha....i..didn't..mean to....make....you die." Sage said in between her laughs, as I glared at her then stomped out of the cafeteria.

My mind was too focused on the anger coursing through me, that I didn't see where I was going and bumped right into a masculine figure, falling to the ground with a thud. And just to my luck, they had juice in there hand and managed to spill it all over me.

"Hey, watch where you're goi.........." a deep voice said, but didn't complete his sentence. Oh god, I would know that voice anywhere. That's...... that's... holy crap. God why did you have to put me in this position.

I looked up to prove my assumptions correct. Stood before me was the schools most popular guy. Zack Parker.

"Well who do we have here." he said, his voice sending shivers down my already cold body.

"Little Miss Geek." Yup this is exactly how i wanted my day to be spent. Then out of the blue he reached down and grabbed my wrists, wrenching me upwards so that i was standing, His grip on my wrists a little too rough, making me whimper in pain. My shirt was now falling of my shoulder and soaked in juice making my body shiver, and my pasta stained pants were not helping me stay warm. Zack pulled my closer to him, his body heat making me warmer, but not in a good way. He squeezed onto my wrists, then bent them back a little, resulting in a gasp to escape my lips and a cry of pain.

"so you thought you could get away with doing that to me, now did you." his voice blew at my bare skin right next to my ear and the crook of my neck. I was now shivering uncontrollably and I couldn't feel the blood in my fingers. Why me, Why?

Everyone knew how aggressive Zack got when he was angry or mad, and right now he was completely pissed off. One of his hands released my wrist and he brought it back into a fist, ready to punch me. I looked up at his face, his eyes were dark. They no longer held that sparkle every girl died for, and he looked like he wasn't even himself anymore. I don't know what happened but, his face suddenly relaxed and his eyes lightened up a bit. He looked down at my stained clothes then at my frightened face and he visibly relaxed a little. I guess he realized that I was a girl and that I didn't mean to do him any harm, because seconds later he was apologizing and was about to lower his fist and let go of his grip on me when a voice behind me shouted.
