*Chapter 5 continuation*
We walked towards the lab in silence and I could notice people staring daggers at my back. I ignored them and tried to break the silence with Zubera.
"So, how long have you lived in this town?"
"I moved here when I was 5." She said, after giving it a thought.
"Oh, where did you live before?" I asked, pulling up a stool and taking a seat.
She hesitated, but took a seat next to me. Before she could answer, someone from the back called out to her. The voice sounded familiar. I heard the clanking of a pair of heals.
"Hey" She said, eyeing me from head to toe, and then focusing on Zubera.
"Hey, Rhiannon, this is Isabel. She's new here."
Rhiannon, the blonde, took a step back and flashed me a smug smile.
"So, you're the newbie. The new talk of school, the new joke of school, might I add"
I raised a brow, as Zubera glared at her friend? Acquaintance? Wannabe cheerleader? Bitch?
"Can you not?" Zubera whispered, loud enough for me and the blonde to hear.
Rhiannon let out a chuckle. "I was just kidding, Zubera. No need to lash out."
"Sure, you were" Zubera said, rolling her eyes.
"It's okay. Some people just don't get out of their bratty middle schooler phase. You can't really blame them." I said, flashing a small smile at Rhiannon, and getting off the lab stool.
"The seat's all yours" I said, walking up to an empty table, not before having the pleasure of looking at Rhiannon's mouth agape. It might've been a lame comeback. But, it sure as hell shut her up.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Lab was pretty boring, as the teacher only introduced everyone and talked about all the rules and instructions they had to follow for the rest of the year. Sure, it was awkward when I had to introduce myself in front of the whole class, but I was so used to it, I just shrugged it off later.
I didn't wait for Zubera after lab was done with. It was a rude move but, I didn't want to face Rhiannon and her wrath, if she was ever going to unleash any of it on me. I contemplated whether Zubera would ask me to hang out with her for lunch or not. But I didn't want to hang around for too long to find out. When I stormed out of the lab, I bumped into Ryan. And by bumped into, I mean falling on my ass when I walked right into his buff body. The impact knocked me right on my ass.
Perfect.
I groaned inwardly as I noticed people stopped doing what they were doing, to stare at me. Ryan quickly pulled me up and pulled me away from the crowd, into an empty classroom.
"So, is this where you'll be doing all the rituals and sacrificing me to the dark overlord?" I simply said, looking around the semi dark class room.
He raised a brow and contemplated whether to answer or not, and then said, "No, I just wanted to apologize."
I thought about what he said for a moment, and replied, "For what?"
He looked away, as if giving it a thought. He and I both knew there was nothing for him to apologize for. But, he acted oblivious to the fact that I ever did anything weird.
