Darknights Great Secret - a Vampire story

Chapter Ten

Great, I thought as I locked eyes with my kidnapper from before, Dwight. I had a hard time deciding whether or not I should make a clever comeback or just ignore him. I eventually decided on the latter, thinking he was not worth my time. I did a let out a small deciding breath and turned away from him.
"Not even a greeting?" He said and I could hear his grinning. I turned around to face him again and I could feel the gaze from my friends. I did not say anything but he lifted his arched eyebrows at me, like a question, like he was expecting me make up at comeback.
"Dwight, just let it be." I heard Leon say behind me. This, stealing Dwight's attention from me.
"Hm? Don't be such a knight, you don't even have your armor on." Dwight replied then returned his gaze to me. Our stares were broken by Maggie who linked arms with me and dragged me off to our seats. I could hear Dwight let out a slight laugh as we left. As we sat down I noticed Dwight leaving the classroom. I leaned over towards Leon.
"So... he isn't attending this class?" I asked hopefully.
"He is. It's just unusual for him to actually be present at a lesson." Leon answered as he brought up his math book. I hummed in response as I sat down in my seat once again.
"why though?" I asked hastily as I creased my eyebrows, looking at Leon. He let out a small laugh.
"Why? Have you already been captured by his charm?" He asked placing the pen he frantically had been rummaging for through his bag. I looked at him in shock which made him laugh even more.
"I'm only joking, Quinn." He said placing his hand before his mouth in order to stop laughing.
"What's going on?" Maggie asked and turned towards us.
"No... nothing." I answered shaking off my expression. Maggie did not bother to pry.
"Nath, do you have an extra pen?" Maggie leaned over her desk to talk to Nath who immediately held out a pen for her as if she expected it.
"Thanks!" Maggie chipped.
Just then I saw Dwight entering the classroom again wearing a gloom expression.
"You're back again?" one of the guys he neared said.
"Shut up." Dwight replied as he slapped the back of a blond ones head.
"Caught redhanded." A young man in suit said as he entered the classroom. He was tall and slender. His sleek hair had ash brown color which together with his smooth shaven beard made him quite good looking. I had to use every ounce of me in order to shift my gaze.
"Caught you staring." Maggie whispered and winked at me. Someone had been caught redhanded and apparently, so was I. I could feel the blood flow to my cheeks.
"Didn't I tell you not to skip my classes, Dwight?" The young man said looking up from his papers which he had placed on the lectern.
"yeah, yeah." was all the answer he got form Dwight who were surrounded by guys trying to keep their laughter. Sitting in front of Dwight was a boy with very frizzy hair and he seemed to have the most trouble keeping his laughter in. Dwight kicked his chair in annoyance which only made the frizzy boy laugh harder. The young man returned to his papers.
"Today, we are entering a new chapter." he said and looked up, gazing over the class. Is he the teacher? I though swallowing, trying not to make eye contact, knowing that my cheeks would turn bright pink.
"That's our teacher, hot right?" Maggie said and leaned towards me. I turned my head towards her in astonishment, mouthing 'he?' as I could not believe it.
"Miss Mirat, do you want to go through this again? whispering in class is strictly forbidden, if you have something to say, speak up." Our young teacher raised his voice and both Maggie and I flinched, returning to our straight up positions.
"Do forgive me, sir. We have a new student and she isn't very familiar with her surroundings." Maggie explained, speaking in a different tone from what I've heard her speak before. I was about to turn my head towards the front, nodding in agreement but my gaze became caught by the teachers slate gray eyes and I froze. He had a stern expression. A couple of seconds passed as he spoke again.
"Ah, yes, right, was it miss Dale?" He said slightly tilting his head. I nodded in answer because I couldn't find any words. How intimidating could one be? Though how could he not have noticed me? If I understood correctly, my human smell was quite hard to miss.
"Then, please feel welcome to our school." He said and smiling as he nodded as in confirmation.
"If you ever need any help, don't hesitate to seek me." He continued, staring down at his paper once again. After that the lesson continued on. Math wasn't really my strong suit but I tried to keep up as well as I could. After 50 minutes of hardcore math problems, in my opinion, the young teacher ended the lesson.
"This was it for today. I wold like you to go over the pages we went through today once again until next lesson, after that we'll have a quiz." He said and in response the class groaned. The teacher smiled, quite adorably, actually. Once again I caught myself staring at him, hoping no one else did.
Maggie got my attention making high pitched stretching sounds as her arms reached for the roof.
"Only one lesson to go!" She mused, letting her arms fall to her sides. I noticed Nath staring at her grumpily.
"What?" Maggie said raising her hands.
"The problem from last time? I figured it out, and I was right." Nath said pulling Maggie down her seat again, placing her math book in front of her.
My gaze flew unknowingly towards Dwight who were actually smiling, a playful smile. This, shocking me, made me take a slight step backwards. He was gorgeous wearing a plain expression but when his lips formed a smile he was godlike.
"Quinn?" Leon called, interrupting my staring.
"Yes?" I said giving him my full attention, not risking being found staring at Dwight. Though my efforts were of no use. I were planning on just have a slight sneak peek at the smiling Dwight but I locked eyes with him and I noticed him smirking, as in triumph.
