My Enigma

A fiasco with Mr. Fiasco

    Ch.5

It's Friday. I sit in Algebra 2 waiting for the bell to ring. The late bell rings. As I sit back in my chair realizing my buddy for this class isn't here. A substitute walks in. He looks about 6'6 and his skin looks as red as his hair. All together he looks like a tomato. He tells us his name is Mr. Fiasco and takes attendance. Mr. Fiasco sits in the teacher's seat and reads the newspaper.

     Since Mr. Fiasco isn't saying anything kids break into groups. Some go to sleep, take out their phone texting friends in other classes, trade homework answers, or listen music with friends. I take out homework that's due tomorrow and start doing it.

The guy across from me has both of his headphones in. All of a sudden his starts singing the song.

"You make me glooooow but I cover up won't let it shooooow. So I'm", he raises both of his hands,"putting my defenses up cause I don't want to fall in love."

He pauses because he received a text. After he checks the text he goes back to singing.

"I think I'd have a", he grips the left upper part of his chest," heart attack.

After having a good laugh I put in my right headphone. I play music  with certain homework it helps me concentrate. I was so lost in in my world of music and homework that I didn't see someone sit in the the desk to the left of me. I do a quick glance and my mouth drops. There is Ava sitting plain as day smiling like idiot. It was weird to not see her in shorts.

"Hello love", she says still smiling.

I pull my headphone out.

"Not even my shadow follows me this much", I say turning to her.

"Apparently I'm at fault for knocking off your vase.  So I will apologize for that", she said looking bored.

"Did Elijah put you up to this?"

"I'm suppose to say no. So yes."

"Well Ava, you can go back and tell your brother that you apologied."

"I can't. "

"Why not?"

"This is my new class. "

"Listen I don't need a stalker. "

"My lovely brother forced me to take a class with you. So we can bond", she said texting someone else.

"Well you don't have to. I'm giving you permission to leave."

    She opened her mouth to speak but the bell rang. I left the class in a hurry before she could say anything else. As I went through each class it was still on my mind. Finally school is over and I can go to my Sanctuary.

     The double doors of the club is held open by some new leaders I have not seen before. I give a hi as I walk in. I walk in seeing Aiden. Aiden is cuban and one of my best guy friends. He look so adorable with red collared shirt, cargo pants, and red shoes.

"Aiden", I screamed his name.

Aiden looked at me smiling.

      I talked to Aiden for about five minutes. I left the conversation so I can go to the bathroom. Before I left the room. I saw something that made my heart drop. Ella all over Elijah. Ella is 5'4 with bright red hair. The ends of her hair looked like they have been dipped in black paint. Elijah is 6'0 and them together looks awkward. It's not because I am 5'9 and it perfect for me. Maybe a little. Ella has red short shorts and a black tank top on. Her outfit is really unnecessary. Elijah looks at me. I almost feel like his eyes are asking me to help him. I run into the bathroom to try and hide my eyes.

"Layla! Layla!"

I hear him calling my name but I run faster towards the bathroom.
