Knight in Shining Armani

Chapter four: Blinded Third Eye Blind

 A car parked next to me, it was the Cadillac. 'Oh..my.. god..'

He was the guy that I have been sitting next to. He was there that night. I didn’t catch a good look at him. No wonder he asked me whether I remembered him.  He caught me staring at him. He got out of the car. Tapped on my window. Mouthed the words, "Get out of the car," while pointing at his watch. Oh crap, I didn't realise the time. We rushed to class and sat down just before the bell rang.

"Thanks." I said.

"No worries, you do realise it has been almost two months now, and you still haven't asked for my name."

"Uh well sorry, I didn’t realise. People usually introduce themselves to me." Crap. I probably should not have said that. He didn’t seem to take it in any other way but said,

"Yeh I figured as much, people would introduce themselves to you."

'Shit, he figured it out, he knows I am from the Madeleine group.'

"You are beautiful, of course people would go to you, if only you weren't that scary."

'Pheww, so he doesn't know.. wait, did he just say I was beautiful? Wait, did he just I was scary?'

"I am not scary."

"You stood up against the Bees, that's intimidating."

"Uh-sure. I still don't know your name." I knew his name, his name was Luke. Maybe he thought I had forgotten that he had saved me. Just play along Pasha.

"I thought you would never ask. Let's start over. Hi, I am Lucas."

'Wait, he said Lucas. Was he the Lucas? The one that had the Bees on my back Lucas?'  That would explain so much, I was sitting next to him in all my classes, it is only natural for them to get upset.

"Wait I thought it was Luke?"  'Damnit good job Pasha at pretending not remembering the night.'

" HAAAAH! I knew you remembered me. I saved you that night!" he said as he slammed his right hand on the desk.

I could feel my cheeks flush. " Uh- yeah. To be honest, I only realised it was you after seeing you get out of the Cadillac."

"Ouch that hurts, how can you not remember my face? How can anyone forget THIS face, you are breaking my heart sweetheart."

"DO YOU HAVE ANYTHING TO SHARE WITH THE CLASS MS ANDERSON AND MR GOLDSTEIN?" Mr Lee asked. "IF NOT, I'D RATHER YOU PIPE DOWN AND PAY ATTENTION. THIS WILL BE IN NEXT WEEK'S QUIZ." The whole class groaned. "YOU CAN THANK BOTH MS ANDERSON AND MR GOLDSTEIN FOR THAT."

'Thank god Mr Lee cut short that conversation. He saved me from answering Luke. At the same time, great now I have to study for this quiz which is not a big deal since I am fairly smart.'

Luke then slid his notebook to my side, it had written on it, 'This is not over, you owe me lunch for saving you.'

I just left it hanging. Immediately after the bell rang, I quickly exited the classroom and headed straight to my locker.

The Bees were standing behind me then, "Good going Poor Pity Pasha, I heard you got the whole class to suffer through a quiz next week."

I retorted flatly, "Well considering you are not in that class, I assume that you are not smart enough to do simple maths, does the school have special classes for you?"

Not to my surprise, she turned on her heels and left. I faced my locker again and felt something poking me. The Bees don't give up do they, with a huge sigh and while turning around,
