Flickering Lights

Chapter 2

I slowly entered the classroom and went to my seat. Seemed like Will was going to take his chances with the warning bell. Well good luck to him. Just as Ms Wille was starting the lesson Will slipped into his seat. "Hey" he whispered his brown  hair flopping on his forehead. His brown  eyes shining with mischief. My eyes travelled down to the rest of his lean muscular body and the dark green t-shirt under which was a perfect 6 pack. My eyes then took in his skinny jeans which hid... The sound of him clearing his throat brought me out of my innocent thoughts. That smirk on his face made me realise that he was aware of me discreetly checking him out.

Instead of answering him I ducked my head and tried to concentrate on my textbook. Trying being the keyword. Instead of leaving me to my thoughts( which certainly didn't revolve around him) he continued speaking "No answer hmm. That's considered rude. Anyways remember the partner  project Ms Wille announced yesterday ? Wanna do it together?"
To say I was shocked was an understatement. My mouth opened and closed like a fish as I searched for a satisfactory answer. Saying yes would mean an instant death by the hands of his fan club. While saying no would mean ending up with Frank as my partner since I don't know anyone and he would definitely choose me for his own 'pleasure'.Frank,the same guy who dated Melanie and then cheated on her putting her off guys for a long time. Also the same guy who after the said incident asked me if I would like to 'get some ' with him in the school closet thinking I would actually agree. So partnering up with him might be a little awkward.

   I finally said yes to him deciding that I'd rather take my chances with his crazy psychopathic fan club then have Frank groping me and as much I love English I'd rather not deal with that. He grinned at me I felt a shiver run through me. Why am I feeling so cold ? Looks like I need to get a jacket. But it wasn't so cold yester-  The bell rang shaking me out of my thoughts. I quickly grabbed my books and rushed to my Maths. One hour of torture fun so much fun.

  The lunch bell finally rang and I swear I heard a sigh from everyone including Mr Hinton my wonderful history teacher. As I entered the cafeteria I took notice of the drama I missed. Some girl was sobbing as she ran out covered in chocolate pudding and what distinctly looked like green muck. Looks like I know the cafeteria food for today. Id rather buy an apple. A  crazy hyperactive weirdo otherwise known as my best friend Melanie was waving her hands like a kid high on sugar. I walked towards her and sat on our otherwise empty table and looked at her with a blank expression. No we weren't loners we had other friends but they seemed to take their own sweet time coming here. "The food here has improved. I can finally recognise one item, the pudding. I'm so proud."My other friend Jason informed us waving the tray of food right under my nose. I shoved it away glaring at him and then stealing a apple from his tray. It was now his turn to glare at me. I just smiled sweetly at him and batted my eyelashes. Now when some other girl did this it looked nice and flirty. But when I did this I looked like I had a blinking problem or there was something in my eye. All in all everytime it was a complete epic fail. My friends  did not disappoint. They burst out laughing joined by Mia the last and final member of our amazing group. Mia and Jason were dating. So when Melanie was dating Frank I had been the horrible 5th wheel and had felt a lot like Leo from Heroes of Olympus though he was the 7th wheel until Calypso(poor kid). Anyways back to the topic -Jason and Mia were dating. They made a cute couple with Jasons black hair and brown eyes and glasses(we've told him so many times to get lenses but..) and Mia with blonde hair and blue eyes.

Mia leaned in to kiss Jason and before it could turn into a full make out session in front of my innocent eyes I screamed " No PDA kids you all are on school grounds." They broke apart and Mia chucked a chip at me wasting a part of the only eat able thing on the table beside my apple. I chucked my apple at her. It missed her head and then fell to the fall. I sighed sadly and looked at my friends and we burst out laughing. I loved my friends they made my boring life so much more bearable.

When I reached home I saw a truck standing outside and some men putting the furniture inside it. I ran inside to ask my mom what the hell was happening. When my mom saw me rushing inside like there were dogs behind me she seemed to understand what I was gonna ask." You were in such a rush this morning that you didn't hear the rest of what I said. We are moving to the new house in these two days. All the furniture will go today and our clothes will go tomorrow with us. You are missing school tomorrow. I've already sent your bed and other things. Only your clothes and books are left. Start packing. We'll order take out for dinner. Oh and apologise to your father for your horrible and completely unsupportive behaviour this morning." Saying this she left me in our now bare hall. I didn't want to shift. I loved my old house. It definitely had more chances to be haunted than our new one. Also it was familiar the street was familiar the neighbours were familiar. What if the neighbours in the new house were assholes. It could happen!I hated shifting away from a place with many memories. I hated that I would have to learn the streets of the new house like I knew this one. I hated leaving a familiar place. But it seemed like I had no choice.
