"Katherine, meet Connor Collins. He was the one who brought you here." He looked fine as fuck. Sharp jawline that could cut through my skin and blue eyes I could get lost in, and brown hair styled into a quiff. He's the typical perfect guy.

"Hey." He said as he smiled at me. "H-Hi.. I'm Katherine Bridgestone. Nice to meet you." I said as I placed my hand out for him to shake it.

"Nice to meet you too, Katherine." Connor said as he shook my hand. God damn it, I probably look like shit right now. I thought to myself.

"Anyway, I'll leave you two alone. I have other patients waiting at the waiting area." The nurse said as she stood up from my bed and left the room.

Connor sat on the bed with his eyes locked onto mine. "You have really pretty eyes." He complimented as he smiled without his teeth. "Oh um, thank you. I also forgot to thank you for bringing me here," I answered as I removed the bun out of my hair.

"Oh psh, no problem. So to get more in detail with you, why did you suddenly pass out?" He asked. I wish I could tell him but something was telling me not to.

"Katherine?"He asked again, looking at me concerned.

"Oh what? I-um, rather not tell." I replied as I fixed my curly hair. "And please, just call me Kat or Kath, depends."

"Okay, Kat." Our eyes kept locking onto each other, which was really  uncomfortable and awkward. I looked at the window to avoid eye contact with him.

"So, what are your interests?" He asked me as I looked back at him. "Well, the typical girly stuff." And I also like to play around with boys' feelings.

"Oh cool. Well anyway, I think I need to go back." Connor said as he stood up. "Bye,"

"Bye. See you around."

I tried talking, but my voice was still raspy. Jade came rushing in the clinic and immediately spoke loudly, "Oh my God, Kath. Are you okay, baby?"

She calls me baby because I am younger than her, and I look cute according to my other classmates, but I never really believed them.

"Yeah, I am. My vision's still blurry, but I can handle it." I answered as I sat up and parted my hair to the side. "What happened to you? And did that jock ever came to visit you?" She asked as she sat down on the bed and I shook my head in response.

"Such a horrible boyfriend." We both chuckled and said, "I don't even think he knows that I'm in here." 

"Why don't you text him?" Jade asked once more. "I'm too lazy and plus I don't even think he'll go here." 

"But real talk right now, do you still love him?" 

Silence broke the conversation which got me thinking, do I still love him? As the matter of fact, I don't. He chokes me with his tongue which isn't pleasant at all. He hangs out with his friends more than me and he's kind of a fuckboy.

"I never loved him. You know who I am. I'm a player." Jake entered our room, his eyes almost bulging out the sockets. 

Jake's mouth was wide open and we just stared for the whole time. He looked at Jade and ran away because he was intimidated by Jade, or what it seems like. 

"Does he know now?"

"Oh hell yeah he does."

After the hell of a nightmare I had in the clinic of taking a crap ton of pills, it was already dismissal, and I was waiting for Jade to get the hell out of the classroom. She eventually did and we started chatting about random things.

As we left the building, someone surprised me at the exit; it was Connor. "Jesus Christ!" These words popped out of my mouth as an reaction to Connor's jump scare. 

"Aren't you Connor from our class?" Jade asked as she hooked her arm with mine. "Yep!"

"Oh wow, nice to meet you. You're also the one who carried Kath princess-style to the clinic if I'm not mistaken." Wait, did she just say he carried me princess style to the clinic? Are you kidding me? 

"Correct." Connor answered as he smiled. Fuck, my chest is hurtin'. His smile is too bright for me. He's so cute. 

"Mind if I come with you?" Connor asked as Jade and I both looked at each other and nodded. "Actually shit, I need to go. I have to do more shit at home." Jade said as she grabbed out her phone and left the both of us.

"So, what time are you leaving?" He asked once again as he ran his finger through his hair. "Maybe at 5, I'm not really sure." I answered as I tucked my phone into my pocket. 

"I know this is quite random but, are you single?" 

"Actually, no. We just y'know, broke up." I answered as we continued walking.

"Awh, really? What douche bag would break up with you?" He asked again. I can now clearly  see that he's curious as fuck.

"I don't know. Well it's 5 o'clock already, I guess I'll.. see you around?" I asked as we stopped in front of the parking lot.

"Um, yeah sure. I'll chat with you later." Connor said as he waved at me and walked backwards. I got to my car, started the engine and... 

*beep*

I got a text message. 

Jake Robinson: We need to talk.
