Chapter 5

He didn't care? Would he care if he knew that the dorks lips touched his? Would he be disgusted or repulsed? Or would he not care, would he embrace me and be okay with the fact that I was the girl behind the mask. I asked myself these questions as I chewed on the end of my pen and zoned out in class. Clark had fallen asleep, but Hunter? He was looking at me. I could feel his gaze piercing into my skull. I only glanced at him once or twice. I acknowledged that he was looking at me, I just had no clue what he wanted. I finally had had enough. I turned in my seat towards him and caught him off guard by doing so.
"What?" I said, maybe with a little snark...

"Ooh, feisty." He claimed, then instantly the space between us virtually disappeared. " Thats exactly how I like them." Of course I was in shock as the hottest guy in school was shamelessly flirting with me! Then I mentally slapped myself.

Get a grip moron!!! He's way... out of your league! He thinks you are going to be easy, he is testing you!!! After all you are just a wimp. Don't fail you idiot!

Her words, they still hurt after so long. Even now, different guy different school, different me... her voice rang through my head, the girl who could break me down and make me feel like every bad thing would crumble the wall I had built... but back to the matter at hand. As I looked into his eyes it was becoming harder and harder to resist him, and the more time I took to think, the closer he got to my lips. The lips little did he know were familiar to his.

"Stop." It came out normally and strong. I almost patted myself on the back for it. He lightly chuckled as his head dropped, he pulled himself back and slouched down into his chair.

"You're funny cupcake, I like you." He stated bluntly. His smirk rested on his face ever so annoyingly. I pouted and faced forward once more, I tried to focus in class but her words, even though she herself was not physically here - she couldn't be even if she wanted to - she still tormented me.

The class bell rang I quickly gathered my books and ran out of class, the next class I had was science which nearly bored me to death, but I managed to get all my work done and copy down all my notes. My final class before lunch was World History, I walked in and got hit in the head with a paper ball. My head turned to see Clark leaning back in his chair with his feet on the desk.

"Hey 'best friend' mind throwing my ball back to me?" He emphasized best friend and took his bag off the seat next to him. He patted it and waved me over, I picked up the ball walked over and put my stuff down. I sat in my seat as elegantly as I could and aimed the paper ball. As soon as it plopped into the basket I smiled showing off some dimples. Clark just leaned back and frowned.

"So since we have been best friends for about a day I feel like I should know more about you." He turned towards me and struck a thinking pose. I chuckled at his silliness and then realized, I have to keep this act up. I don't want Hunter figuring everything out! I cannot let Hunter figure everything out! As far as Hunter knows I am a nerd who is best friends with Clark and tends to keep to herself. He has no idea I was at the party!

"Clark please let me wait till I am ready to let Hunter know. I like him! He is funny and sweet, he just doesn't know it! With the mask I was my own person, and not some label people made for me. I was scared when I ran and I am terrified now. If he figures me out how is he gonna react? I just need you to help me, but I promise that I will tell him." Clark stared at me when I was done my speech. He sighed and then took out a pen.
