Before (Book 1/3 of Will You Remember?)

Lucky Guess I Suppose

  That night I had the same dream, that I met the man of my dreams and that he died right after. The only difference this time was that there was a figure in the corner of my sight the entire time I was dreaming. Once again I woke up late for school around 2nd period. Walking to school was lonely today and seemed different than the previous days. I needed to stop being late but I was addicted to the boy and the thought of seeing him.
  All I had was a schoolgirl crush on a hot boy way out of my league. I did have a best friend who was back from New Zealand visiting family. Belle was the most amazing person in the world and loved her to death. I would die for her even though she is the reason I am alive.
When I arrived at the office, I again strode up to the desk and the lady started writing me a pass after glaring at me.
  I was usually always on time but lately that strange dream and the thought of seeing the boy once again was enough to make me late. I looked over and there he was like always looking at me, making my insides twist and turn. I could feel my face burning and I hoped it wasn't as red as it felt. After a few more seconds I looked back at the lady just as she finished and took the pass. Once again he was walking towards the bathroom and on some crazy, quick and stupid note I had decided to call out to him.
  "Hey you! You're Keiran right?" I shouted, but not too loud because as soon as I realized that I actually talked to him my face started burning and my legs got weak. He turned around.
  "Yeah. Why?" his voice was deep, but not too deep and it sent shivers down my spine. My face grew hotter and I trembled. I didn't know what to say. How stupid of me! What did I think was gonna happen. What did I think I'd say?
  "Its just I always see you at the office and I figured I should at least know your name." I was dumbfounded at how fast I actually thought of that and was super proud of my self. It was if a sudden calm had come over me. Now the calm had passed and my face was burning again.
  "Yeah I suppose. Well now it's not fair if you know my name and I don't know yours." he said. His voice was cool and calm with a hint of mischief. I was trembling and didn't realize he was asking my name till a few seconds after where I should've said my name. I was mentally killing my self.
  "Do you not know your own name?" he asked with a laugh. "I think I'll just call you Jane then." He smiled and his teeth were white. With his smile my knees were about to give out from beneath me. It didn't hit me till and few seconds after that he had actually guessed my name right. My name was Jane. I was shocked and my stomach twisted with surprise.
  "H, h, how did you know?" I asked stuttering. The problem with me is that, in my mind, my words are strong and I'm never nervous, but when I try to speak my mind I always lose my train of thought and get super nervous.
  "Just a lucky guess I suppose." he didn't look taken aback at all. In fact he smiled even more as if he knew he was right when he said Jane. Right as I was going to say something the bell rang and interrupted us, although I don't know what else would have been said.
  "Catch ya later. Jane." he said and strode off.

  Lunch came fast and I was happy for that. As soon as I saw Belle I ran towards her like I was running for my life. We were jumping up and down and squealing and soon enough a teacher came over and told us to knock it off.
  We found a table to sit at and caught up on everything we had missed. She told me about her family and I told her what she missed from school. She had missed a month of school and had a ton of homework to catch up on. I told her I needed to talk to her after school, so we agreed to meet at the side of the school. After lunch the day went by quickly and I hardly thought of Keiran. Until I saw him walking out of the front of the school with the boy I saw him with at lunch yesterday who's name I found out was Ben. Ben was Belle's partner for a little-big assignment in Science for 9th and 10th graders to show the difference in a year. Don't ask me why it was in Science because I had no clue. Us 10th graders would be paired up with 11th graders and 11th graders would be paired up with 12th graders. While the 12th graders would be visiting colleges for their assignments.
  I saw Belle waiting at the bench for me and jogged over, greeting her with a hug.
  "So watcha wanna talk about?" she asked curiously. She always wanted to know everything about me and I usually wanted to know the gossip about her. So I told her about me being late the past few days and seeing Keiran and learning his name from Ben and about our conversation this morning and how it was so weird Ben was going to be Belle's partner.
  "Maybe I can learn something about Keiran for you from Ben?" she suggested. My partner was a girl named Sophia with bright red hair.
  "That would be amazing Belle!" I shouted she hugging her. Little did I know tomorrow would prove that I didn't need her to get the information from Ben.
