Some Secrets Hurt.

Chapter 4.

Thank god it was Friday, I thought smiling slightly to myself as I walked into the school gates to meet Em at her locker.  Ryan mentioned something about going out to dinner with a new client tonight, I don’t know why I’m coming, hell I don’t even know what my brother works as.  I was happy to dress up and go to the fancy restaurant though.

I was walking into the school gates to meet Emily at her locker, she had been away yesterday and I seriously needed to talk to my girl best friend about the whole Elliot situation…

“Hey Em!” I called to her as I came closer,

“Izzy!”  (she’s the only one that calls me that.)

“I missed you yesterday” I pouted.

“Aw, what happened?” she said as if she was talking to a baby.

“Oh it’s a long story, I’ll tell you at lunch.”

Just then, the bell rang to go to class, great science again.  Hugging her tightly we went our separate ways.

“see you in English!” she called back.

I was one of the first people in class so I just sat there thinking of what I would say to Elliot, should I even say anything? Just then he walked in and I decided against it, if he wanted to talk then he was going to be the one to talk, not me. Something was telling me I should stay away from him, I was so sick of not being happy!

I watched him as he reached his seat, I swear he’s gotten sexier.  He was wearing a pair of black skinny jeans, a pair of Chuck Taylors and a red checked button up shirt.  His hair looked like he’d just run a hand through it, he still looked like a model though…  I quickly looked away when I realised I was staring, hoping he didn’t notice.   He didn’t, thank god!  I just stared out the window, I noticed him glance at me a couple times during class and open his mouth to say something, each time he did I prepared myself and got excited, each time he just shut it again not saying anything.  The silence was killing me but I wasn’t going to give in that easy.

Elliot’s  POV

I couldn’t stop thinking about yesterday,  when  Izabell leant against me it was like I had been zapped, in a good way and I almost gave in but I couldn’t fall for her. Yesterday after noon I’d just gone to my room and thought about it all night.  The way she could make me lose my breath with one look, the way she frowned slightly when she was explaining something serious or the way her smile lit up her whole face.

Now she was ignoring me.  I hated it! I hated that I couldn’t get to know her! Several times I had tried to say something to her but I couldn’t think of anything.  I tried to concentrate on the teacher to take my mind off Izabell but it really didn’t help when she looked so sexy, even if she was just in a t-shirt with blue and white stripes and an anchor on it with a pair of black ruggers and white sneakers.  Her hair was down and straight with little bits of her fringe pulled back. Suddenly I had an idea! I thought of what to say-

“Sorry for being a jackass..”  I blurted out, what the hell? that definitely wasn’t what I planned to say.

She turned towards me with a surprised look in her eyes, quickly replaced with an emotionless mask.

“I’m sorry, are you talking to me now?” she asked coldly.

Ouch, that hurt, all I could do was shrug with one shoulder and give my best puppy dog look.     She sighed heavily and turned to look back out the window, her face was a mask of full concentration as she frowned slightly.  I sighed quietly and faced the front again.  Maybe it’s for the best that she didn’t forgive me…
