Chapter 2 Asher's P.O.V
Mouth agape, I stared at her, just stared, unblinking and hardly breathing. Vixy looked back, not staring more like as if she waiting for my little scene to be over. She probably was considering this is everyone's
reaction to her, she looked irritated, annoyed and really bored. I felt a pang of pity for her, she never got any peace did she. With that thought and a little nudge in the gut from Kate I coughed and waited
for her to say something, only now realising she was waiting for me to compose myself.
"Excuse me but you're in the way of the door" O.K so her voice was totally bored, shit am I that boring and predictable. I noticed her voice was also totally melodic.
Gulp, "Sure sorry, g-go right ahead." I . Am . A. Total. Idiot.
I moved out of her way so she could pass and realised she smelled like vanilla, it made me hungry and I chuckled at that thought. Earning me a crazy disapproving look from Kate, which made think she was a little jealous because I could see it in her eyes, but then I shook my head, why would she be jealous? Of my reaction to Vixy maybe? Eh I'll ask in class.
A thought struck me then, why would Vixy be in my class? She is a year older than me and really smart for that matter, taking all AP classes. No I am not a stalker, but stories about her are constantly around the school.
I walked into the classroom, Kate following only to be greeted by a scowl from Miss Granger our Math teacher.
"Sit now you two, I have an announcement. Class, Miss Cooper is going to sit in on this class seeing as she is revising for her end of year examinations. She will be with us every day for two months as we go over various subjects. Right Vixy go sit at the back table with.... umm that young man." Great she can't even remember my name, and I've had this class every morning the past few months.
Vixy slid in beside me and placed her books down gently before looking at me with my eyes wide yet again.
She sighed and introduced herself, "Viv Cooper, call me Vixy" she held her hand out.
I looked at her petite hand with a single green ring on her index finger. I hastily took my chance and shook it, a little rough from my enthusiasm and she smiled a breathtaking smile.
I gulped, "I know, I've lived next to you for 15 years, and you're well known around here."
Her eyes widened, "Oh, you're the dude who looks through my window sometimes?"
"NO!" I yelped, attracting crazy stares from everyone, Katie's stare made me feel guilty for some reason. I turned back to Vixy, "No, definitely not, that must be my little brother, Callum." That little pervert, we need a chat when we get home!
She giggled, "Oh shame." With that she turned and never looked at me again.
I stared at her from the corner of my eye, mouth agape again, blushing like crazy.
After class I gave her another glance, but she didn't even look up as she exited the room. I stared after her until I felt somebody staring at me also. Kate, with her big violet eyes was waiting for me to come back to Earth, so I sighed and gathered my books into my book bag, slinging it over my shoulder in one lithe movement.
I remembered the look in Kate's eyes earlier and wondered if I should say something while she was strolling by my side in silence on our way through the packed hallways. I glanced at her from the corner of my eye and saw she was deep in thought; I'll just leave it until later.
Katie-Lynne's P.O.V
Why all of a sudden do I feel like ripping Vixy's head off? She's only sat by Ash, and he's staring like a love sick puppy. Shit, I'm jealous, great, prefect me and my best friend, that'll never work in a million years. Even now, him next to me as we stroll down the hallway in silence, I really want to hold his hand, because he really is great, but why can't he look at me that way sometimes? Shit he just looked at me, did he say something?
