Chapter 4 Clara POVMy senior year has been..a mess. Since..ya know...
my grades have gotten worse and my friends have deserted me. Summer was only three months away. I could handle that. Right?
The bell rang and i was packing up my things when Mrs Ulest called me to her office.
"Clara, your grades have been falling drastically. I know you are going through a rough time. My best friend died my freshman year of college. But i kept going and succeeded. You can too"
"I'm sorry Mrs Lust, im just having a hard time paying attention in class."
"I have noticed. That's why you are going to get a tutor. For all your classes."
"WHAT?!" No i can't do that, what if Jessica find out, then i'll be even more of a freak.
"I'm sorry Clara, but it is all in your best interest"
"Ok, can i at least know who this person is"
"I wish i could tell you but I have no idea. this person volunteered himself"
"Ok.. so then.. wait?! Did you say He?!?"
"Yes i did, will that be a problem Miss Iver?"
"No, not at all. May i go to my next class now?
"Yes you are dismissed"
I rushed out of there as soon as i could, knowing that i was going to be late to English
"Detention Miss Iver"
"I know" I said rolling my eyes. As if this day could get any worse.
English dragged on and i was ready to go home. Oh wait. I can't, i have to go to detention. The final bell rang and i sluggishly went to the detention room. There were 5 other kids in there. Four of them were your stereotypical rebels. The other one was a boy, he sat in the corner and had a hoodie on.
I sat in the back corner by the kid with the hoodie. Every once and awhile i would catch him staring at me. He looked like a senior, but i have never seen him in the hall
"Where r u!? I thought we were gtg shopping?"
"When did i agree to that?"
"u didn't."
"Miss Iver, no phones allowed in detention. Please bring your phone and put it on my desk"
I trudged down the aisle and slammed my phone on Mr Hamlin's desk. I sat back down and began to hum.
"Could you stop."
"In your dreams."
I ignored him but something in the back of my mind told me that i knew him.
"Whats with the hoodie anyways? Do you only have ½ a pretty face? Haha now i would pay to see that. I wonder why y-"
"Shut up, do you ever stop talking?"
"Fine. You could be nice about it"
""Tell the world that we finally got it all right, I choose you" (Sara Bareilles ringtone)
This can't be happening. I started to breathe heavily and i swear everyone could hear my heart beating out of my chest.
Answer it! You need to know
No I can't, what if it's not him
You need to know
I can't believe i was fighting with myself.
"That is a 5 minute increase of detention Miss Iver"
UGH, i can't believe this is happening to me right now,
"Ha, serves you right" It was a slight whisper but i heard it.
"Excuse me, but did i just hear what i think i did"
"It depends on what you thought you heard Miss Iver"
He said my last name in a way that sent chills up my spine. I decided that there was no point in arguing with a 5 year old, so i dropped the subject and went back to drawing circles on the desk.
The next 10 minutes went by painfully slow. Hoodie kid kept poking me. I didn't mind though, all i could think of was getting my phone back.
I stayed 5 minutes after and then took my phone and drove home as fast as i could. My mom being a lawyer, was.. well... rich. For my 16th birthday my mom got me a 1970s red Pontiac GTO. I have to admit, i love my car. When my mom bought it for me, she wasn't a stickler about it, she just gave me the keys and told me not to go to jail. Cool enough for me. I have never had a speeding ticket, but i might get one right now.
When i got to the park memories started flooding in. I remember when mom used to push me on the swing set, or when Kara and i played freeze tag with the other. This was also the same park i had my first kiss with Luke, and the last.
My phone pulled me out of my train of thought and i saw an unknown number.
"Meet me at the library today at 5 for tutoring"
Crap. i totally forgot i had tutoring today. Ugh life is giving me a whole bunch of rotten lemons right now.
"Ok, could i ask who you are?"
"My name is Justin"
"Ok."
Justin. Hmm. That name sounded familiar but then again, there are millions of justin's in our school.
I got to the library 5 o'clock sharp.
"I'm here. Where are you?"
"Go to the third floor and take a left, it's the first conference room"
"Be there in a jiffy"
A jiffy? What the heck?! I don't say things like that. Great, he probably thinks i'm a total freak now.
I got off the elevator and found the conference room
I started to get the things out of my bag
"Just so you know i'm not dumb i'm just recovering fro---" I looked up to meet my tutor "Justin's" eyes.
"Luke."
And then it all went black.
