Evelyn.

"He said what?" Faith screeched.

"You're very beautiful," i smiled involuntarily as i blushed.

I told her what he said yesterday. And she is freaking out to say the least.

When she stopped to catch her breath, she paused before a wide grin spread across her face.

"What?" I squeaked.

"Why are you blushing?" She winked.

"I-i'm not blushing," i said, suddenly self conscious about my heated, flushed cheeks.

"Yes, you are," she sang.

"No!" I shrieked as i tried to cover up my face with my hair.

Why am i feeling this way?!

She hummed sarcastically, "sure, sure."

"I-" i sighed, trying to find an excuse:

"I'm blushing because i'm nervous."(a/n: true story guys, this happened. And this is literally the phrase of the year!)

My eyes widened as realization dawned on me.

Why kind of a stupid excuse is this?!

Faith stared at me before cracking up, "blushing? Because you're nervous?"

"Yes. I'm blushing because i'm n-nervous," i said sheepishly.

Just then, a hot breath behind my neck sent shivers down my spine.

"Nervous because of what, princess?" Zachary's hoarse voice caused the hair behind my neck raise in attention.

Our closeness got my tongue tied. I'm at loss of words.

He chuckled at my fumbled-self and came to stand in front of me with an amused look masking his perfectly featured face.

"Why are you nervous?" He gave me a breathtaking smile.

My breath hitched in my throat, but i still managed to squeak.

"Because of the test."

"The why are you blushing?" He raised an eye brow.

All this time, Faith was silent, but now she made her presence known to us.

"She likes someone," she said so casually. 

I want to punch her in the face.

"No, I don't!" I blurted out suddenly, my eyes alerted.

Zachary was standing still, staring at his shoes as if it were the most impressive and interesting thing he has ever seen in his life, with a frown that itched at his beautiful features. 

He looked hurt.

A little mad too.

Maybe jealous? 

I wanted to scream at Faith to just leave him be and cut the act.

Before anyone can say anything, the bell saved us and I dashed to make my way into class, without looking behind me or waiting up for Faith or Zachary.

Just as I was about to make a turn and enter class, i was crushed into a wall-like chest. When I looked up, my eyes met his blue orbs.

"James," I greeted.

We have been distant lately, for some reason. I don't really know what's up with him.

He nodded his head as a way of greeting me, his eyes clouded with a venomous look that scared me. He looked stressed.

"Can-can I talk to you?" His voice was raspy and it dripped thick poison.

"S-sure," my heartbeat accelerated. 

He roughly took my hand into his grip and started leading me outside school campus.

When we were out of sight, he kneeled down and took out a pocket knife that looked like a small dagger out of his combat boot.

"W-what, what are you doing, James?"I slowly began backing away.

His eyes widened as he realized that I was scared.

"No, no, Eve. I won't hurt you/ I'm not going to hurt you. I swear."

When I didn't speak -I couldn't, I was too scared- he started talking.

"Its Zachary. I want you to stay away from him, or I'll have to use to use this knife to deal with him."
