Chapter 2: The Boy In Math Class

Bree's POV~

Ugh, I nearly got a detention from science class. It's good I'm an excellent student and I can slip out of bad situations.

I couldn't stop thinking about Mason...and before I knew it, the bell rang and I found myself running to lunch with my backpack open. I was in such a hurry to get to lunch, That I tripped over my feet and all my books fell out.

"Damnit" I exclaim.

I looked up and see the boy who looks at me in math class.

I blush in embarrassment and try to gather all my books with one hand, since the other was holding my lunch bag.

My attempt was proven wrong, as all the books were slipping out of my grasp. The boy from math kept staring at me in amusement. He finally came to his senses and helped me pick up my books.

I managed to crack a small creeped out smile, as he always seemed to stare at me. I picked up all my books and ran to lunch, not thinking that he was running behind me.

As I burst into the cafeteria, my eyes scanned the room for an empty seat. My eyes couldn't believe it, it's Jackon. He has the same lunch?! Okay okay, act cool...be cool.

Jackson's POV~

I love lunch! Well, not the food. But the lunch ladies are so nice...! I can finish my homework here and not get caught by anyone.

Gosh, I tried distracting myself but it seems I can't get Mari off my mind. I just met her! How could I like her? Wait. Is that who I think it is?

It's Mari.

Jackson gestures for Bree to sit down

I hope it won't be that awkward...

Bree's POV~

Ohmygod OK, he just gestured for me to sit next to him. What should I do? Should I go?

GET YOUR MIND TOGETHER MARI.

I'll just casually walk over there, I'll make sure that I don't make it too obvious that I'm excited.

Bree sits next to Jackson

I can feel my face turning red...stop IT. Okay okay, I'll just start a conversation and I'll see what comes from there!

Incoherent noises exit out of Bree's mouth

Jackson's POV~

She just made a weird noise and I can tell she's nervous. I couldn't help but laugh, it's cute when she's embarrassed.

We didn't really talk much, we just sat there. But somehow the silence seemed to connect us in a way that words never could. It felt so right, I kept catching myself staring at her...that beautiful face of hers.

Bree's POV~

He laughed at me, was it because I made that weird noise? I'm so stupid.

We didn't talk the whole time, but I noticed he was sort of looking at me. When I looked at him, he pretended like he wasn't looking.

I didn't notice, but I spaced out. I spaced out looking at him. He looked at me. And we just sort of sat there in silence looking at each other. I couldn't tell what this feeling was inside of me...but I felt as if I was floating.

He whispered, "there's an eyelash in your hair..." My face turned red, and as I was about to brush it off, his hand slowly moved the hair out of my eyes.

"Bree, I have to tell you something. I think..."

Bell rings

A horde of sixth graders came flooding through the doors and come in between us.

We both laughed and went our separate ways to get to our classes on time.

Mason's POV~

I saw the whole "Mari and Jackson" episode during lunch. How much I hate Jackon, he thinks he can get away with this.

Mari is mine...
