The Two Star Crossed Lovers

Chapter 3

I sat down at one of the brown tables in the cafeteria. Meghan sat across from me, pulling a paper bag out of her bag. I guess she doesn't like the lunch today. Oh well. I smile as Lynna and Marie come over. Lynna sits next to me and Marie sits next to Meghan, unzipping her lunch pale.

"Have any of you seen Lucas yet?" Stated Meghan. My heart stopped, and my cheeks turn a bright shade of pink. "Um yeah, I talked to him last period. He's in my Spanish class." Lynna stared at me, waiting for details. Marie was stuffing her face, obviously hungry. She looked up though, looking quite interested.

Meghan batted her eyelashes, looking at me. "Now will you explain to me?" I bit my lip and told them the whole story.

"Vic, he has to be into you. It's obvious that was your number. He can't be that dumb." I laughed at her comment and thought about the class. I haven't fully smiled in so long. It felt, amazing. I missed the feeling of being happy.

"Someone's looking at you baby girl." I looked up at Meghan and followed her eyes to Lucas's table. Instantly, I turned away from him, picking at the lunch that was in front of me. "He's looking for Rose." I stated, pointing to her in the lunch line.

He got up and walked over to where Rose was. On the way there he waved to me, winking slightly. I felt my heart melt as I watched him walk away. I lost my train of thought as well. God, that smile. The way he walked, everything. Unf.

"You guys would be so cute, honestly." I looked over at Lynna. Who was staring at me with her puppy eyes. "Shut up Lynna." By now I'm blushing, thinking about us being together. I smile at the thought and shake it off.

"I think you should talk to him more." Marie looked over at me, bouncing her eye brows. Meghan and Lynna nod their heads in agreement. I roll my eyes, and get up, walking over to the trash can. Could it ever work? No, never. I wipe my mouth with my napkin and throw it out, walking back to the table.

As I'm walking back I bump right into him, making him stumble a bit. "Oh my god Lucas I'm sorry I didn't see you.." I look up, making sure he's not damaged. "It's fine." He smiles. "Guess what?"

I cock an eyebrow up. "What?"

"You're blushing again." He bites his lip and winks, walking to his table, rose shortly behind him. I stand there in awe, not knowing what to do. Dammit Lucas. I take a deep breath, walking back to my table. Apparently I had been smiling the entire time and didn't know.

"What are you so smiley about?" My attention snaps to Meghan, who is deviously smiling. "Lucas."

We all laugh as the be rings, allowing us to leave lunch. I walk down the hall, Waking with Meghan on one side, and Marie on the other. Lynna was walking with her boyfriend, expressing extreme levels of PDA. I walk over to her and hit her butt as hard as I can, causing her to jump.

"Ahh!, you little bitch Victoria!" I laugh, running down the hall away from her. I run past Lucas and Rose, avoiding Lynna at all costs. "Victoria I'm going to kill you!" I laugh harder, hiding in a bathroom. I wasn't just hiding though, because I really had to go to the bathroom.

I heard her run past the bathroom and I start laughing, walking out. I looked down the hall and saw Lucas. Slowly, I inched out of the bathroom and ran to my locker, getting my English binder. Suddenly, a body hit the lockers next to me. "Holy shit. You scared meeeee." I whined and looked at Lucas. "What class do you have?" I smiled at him. "English, Grater. What about you?"

I closed my locker and started walking towards my class. "I have social studies." He stated, and tagged along next to me. "Well, I guess I'll see you after class?" I flashed him a smile and walked into my classroom. The rest of my day pretty much flew by. I don't really recall much of it, but it was definitely fun. It was one of the best days of my life. So far.

I got out of my last period class and walked over to Marie. She was at her locker, getting her stuff together. "Hey sexy." I seductively said, leaning against the lockers. She laughed and looked at me. "You're so weird. Why am I friends with you?"

Even though I knew she was being sarcastic, inside it hurt. But that's ok, because I know that she can't live without me. "Because you love me." I bat my eyes at her, and glance down the hall, watching Lucas talk to Rose. My god he was beautiful. The way he smiled at her made my heart melt, and it wasn't even meant for me. Oh how I wish it was though.

"You ready?" Marie said. I snapped out of my daydream phase and looked at her "oh, yeah. Let's go." I turned and started skipping down the hallway. I felt so weird that day. I haven't skipped in forever, nor have I smiled. This damn kid really was having an effect on me.

We walked out of the building, talking about random shit, blabbering to each other. "Today really flew by." I said, looking over at her. "It didn't for me. I think it did for you because of Lucas." She bat her eyes at me and blew a kiss with it too. I felt the heat rising to my cheeks. "Shut up!" I bit my lip and walked toward the bus. Marie walked on in front of me. Before I could even get off the curb, a set of arms wrapped around me, and held me tight.

A time that only consisted of about 3 seconds. I turned around to see who hugged me, and I saw Lucas smiling at me, waving and walking away. "See you tomorrow Vic!"

He was gone. My insides melted, as I walked onto the bus. I looked over at Marie who was "momentarily fangirling". I sat in the seat with her and just stared at her. "I think I just died." She laughed at me and the bus pulled out of the parking lot. Nothing could possibly ruin my day.

At least that's what I thought...
