Chapter 2~ Chase
“Chase!!!!” My annoying mother calls up the stairs.
I roll over and look at the alarm clock 7:50. Ten minutes til school starts. Why do I even go it’s a waste of my time me and the guys are going on tour as soon as school lets out. Sure i’ll go to college maybe if this band thing doesn't work out, but were opening for Riverdale the coolest new punk rock band on the scene.
When I finally walk down the stairs mom has a pissed off look on her face. “Chase! I know you have this tour thing this summer but that gives you no right to slack off in school you need good grades to get into a good collage!” Blah. Blah. Blah. I’ve heard this all before.

Stupid water fountain you never work. I bane my hand down onto it and it starts spraying everywhere. Shit. Oh well. Great here comes Annabel, god why does she have such a big impact on me were nothing alike.
I hear her let out a little ‘yelp’ as she trips in the puddle, crap, and her books go flying everywhere. Wonder why she wasn’t paying attention doubt it has to do with me.
“Do you need some help?” I ask her. Might be on different sides of popularity but can’t be rude I do have some manors.
She look up at me with her beautiful Blue eyes. Before she even says anything I already had all her books picked up. I then set them on the ground and help her up.
“Thank you!” Annabel seems to barely manage.
“No problem, but you should probably watch where you're going, and I’m Chase Riens.” I say giving off the bored look.
“I’m Annabel M...”
“I know who you are.” I cut her off. She looks shocked at that.
“Oh” was all she said.
“Yeah, well whatever bye.” I says and walk away. God can’t let her affect me.
****
I‘ve been avoiding her for days. God I’m an idiot, why do I think some things there and I know theirs not. She’s popular I’m far from it. This weird attraction needs to stop.
‘Does it?’ My mind shot back. Yes it does.
‘Does it really? There is something there she just hasn’t realised it yet.’ It shot again. What’s going on it doesn't sound like me but yet it does. Now she’s messing with my mind.

Why does my mom drag me to these Connecting Fashion Around the World benefit things. The speech is boring, the food is over the top and I am forced to dance with a girl.
It’s her! god why am I so happy about that I knew Annabel was going to be here so why do I perk up at the thought of possibility dancing with her. I excuse myself from the grip of the girl I was dancing with and made my way over to the girl the somehow has a hold on me.
“Would you like to dance?” I ask trying to disguise my voice.
“I would love too” Annabel replied a little shocked, why would she be shocked don’t guys always ask her to dance. Just the the waltz came on, just my luck a dance I knew. I grab her hand and put my hand on her lower back.
We dance for awhile more, I don’t know how long could of been minutes, could of been hours. I couldn't take it anymore her shinning red lips called to me. So I swooped her back looked into her eyes for protest but found none. So I leaned down and kissed her.
I pulled away from her, still holding her swooped. I stare at her with a want that I know won't be put out. She stared at me with not only curiosity but what seemed like happiness maybe. Out of nowhere she started to reach up yo pull my mask off not knowing how to stop her I drop her on the floor. “ouf!” Is what came out when she landed.
“I’m sorry! I must go!” I blurt out then start darting around people muttering excuse me and sorry along the way and dart up the stair and out of the building. Outside I finally stop running and lean against a wall of the Hampton.
Then out of nowhere a black town car pulls up right in front of me and someone beckoning me to get in. I know it’s a bad idea but I get in the car anyway. The door slams shut behind me as soon as i get in there's no light on in the car with the snap of a dark shadows fingers the lights turn on.
