He Wants Chemistry?

So it turns out Mr. Ruth is in my Chemistry class. I guess I never noticed people until they started messing with me... The cuts on my arms today were swollen and on fire. And sometimes, they were itchy as hell. Today, we had a lab that required another person to work with you. Yes, you know right now that I don't have a partner. I did but she, who normally does all the work and doesn't mind, is absent. Ruth's partner was out too.After Mr. Eshbaugh gave instructions I went up to him and asked,"Is there any way I can work alone,please?" He looked up,"Isn't there anyone who can work with you?" "I can," came the voice I really didn't want to hear. Mr. Eshbaugh smiled,"Ah,how very kind of you Ruth. There, Darling you can work with him." And so I worked with stupid Mr. Ruth. Wonder what he was gonna try to pull now- "If you want I can do all the work and you can relax,"He offered, breaking away my thoughts. I cracked a small smile but then hid it,he's probably making me out to be a fool somehow. Suddenly I dropped my pencil, as I went down to get it he did too and he hit my arm where the cuts flourished. "OW!!" i screamed at the top of my lungs. The whole class quieted from their work and fixed their attention on me. "Are you alright,Darling?" The teacher asked. I nodded and looked away from Ruth's concerned gaze. The white long sleeved shirt I wore began to turn a shade of red...and somewhat blue..perfect. Ruth's eyes widdened in shock then confused. I turned away and raced from the classroom, I didn't want him to see me ever again.
