The Willow

Chapter 7

*FLASHBACKS ARE IN ITALICS. I WILL TRY TO UPLOAD MORE!*

First period was filled with me and my thoughts of Moses. When the bell finally rang it snapped me back into reality, and into the land of boring once again A.K.A school. I never really understood why I space out so much, must be genetic. I was brought back to reality when Kimiko waved her hand in front of my face.

"Earth to Hadley, we've got second now."

I groaned wishing that it was lunch already.

" Yeah let's go." I said.

Second period was art, so I actually paid attention and drew a black wolf with gold eyes, which Kimiko seemed to enjoy very much.

" You have to show that to the guys! They'll love it!" I agreed after a little while.

Next period was lunch, thank god, and I showed the boys my drawing.

They all seemed to look at as if they had seen it before in person.

"Wow, this is really good. Why did you draw the wolf with gold eyes?"

I noticed that everyone was waiting for an answer, so I said "I'm not sure, just thought it looked nice I guess." and saw Moses beam at me." Besides I guess I've always liked gold eyes because they're unusual; different, but still beautiful in their own unique fashion."

All the sudden they all smirked at Moses for reasons beyond my current mental capacity. I looked up at the sky from the picnic table we were sitting at. The sky was so innocent in my opinion, it's just so....... bright and blue, high up like no one could ever touch it.

"Hey Hadley everything OK?" I heard Moses ask.

I shivered from the sexiness of his voice, then noticed that they were all staring at me with concerned expressions. I tried to look at my face from the inside and realized that I probably had a really sad expression on my face, which I immediately arranged for a smile.

"Yeah, just thinking about how much homework Mr. Dodd had given me. Jeez, do you think he could assign more, god?!" I said that last part very sarcastically, making him, them, laugh at my misfortune.

My stomach tightened from hearing Moses's laugh and all I could think was

Thank God

By the time fifth period came around I was a roller coaster of emotions, still completely tipped from Moses. God, even his name sounded hot, jeez God are you trying to kill me?

"Hey babe," Moses said after he sat next to me. I blushed at being called babe, yet it sent a warm feeling down my spine.

"H-hey Moses." I said shakily, making him chuckle.

"Now class," the teacher began "Take a close look at the person sitting next to you , they will be your partners all year!" she said with far too much enthusiasm.

"WHAT!?"

"C'mon Miss, can't we choose our partners?"

The students who were unlucky enough to  get partnered with someone they didn't like were screaming their outrage, while Moses sat there grinning at me with his intensive eyes and unwavering stare.

"ENOUGH!" she exclaimed making me jump as she scared the bejesus out of me " I have chosen for your seat mate to be your partner for the rest of the year, don't blame me for you sitting next to someone you didn't like. Now, let's get started!" she said over enthusiastically once again.

Groans were heard around the classroom as  I sat there blushing, looking like a bloody tomato.

"We should go to my house to work on the project after school tomorrow," Moses told me after the end-of-class bell rang. "I'll pick you up after school and take you there." he said firmly leaving little-to-no room to argue.

I nodded "O-o-ok." I said timidly.

It didn't click for me until I got home

HOLY SHIT I'M GOING OVER TO MOSES HOUSE AFTER SCHOOL TOMORROW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was awake half the night excited out of my pants for tomorrow.
