Lunch in the Library

I turn to my locker, which I luckily stopped directly in front of. I flubbed my combination a few times because my mind was elsewhere. After finally getting my locker open (on the fifth try), I absentmindedly grabbed my French book. I'm running on autopilot right now. I can't stop thinking of Saeran Choi. 

What the hell even WAS that? Does he not know what personal space is? Why the hell did he touch me? That was really fucking weird...

I shudder once I remember the feeling of his cold hand on my shoulder. 

Maybe he should invest in some gloves... I'm sure they'd fit into his weird biker wardrobe or whatever it is... He's really weird.

I was so lost in my own thoughts that I didn't hear the person sneak up behind me and tap me on the shoulder. I jumped and quickly turned around.

"Oh! Luciel! Hi!"

He laughs at my reaction. "Easy there, tiger. What's got you so on edge today?" 

"Um... nothing." I turn back to my locker, slamming it shut. "Hey, Seven?"

"Yeah?"

It's hard to look him in the eye, but I manage it. "I'm... uh... really sorry about yesterday. I didn't-"

"Hey." He cuts me off. Luciel stares at the lockers behind me. "Don't worry about it, okay? I'm alright now." He looks back at me and grins, proving his point.

"Okay. Thanks a lot." I return his smile.

Seven is trying to reassure me that he's okay... But I'm not so sure.

The first bell rings and we say our goodbyes as we head off to our respective homerooms.

~*~*~*~

I was distracted all throughout first period. I should really be paying attention to how to conjugate irregular verbs in French, but I was too busy worrying about lunch.

Shit... I have class with him, too. What if he tries to talk to me? Wait, that's not possible, he never talks. What if he's going to be creepy again? The library has witnesses, right? In case he tries anything weird? And WHY am I thinking about him so much? What the hell is WRONG with me?

I was jarred out of my thoughts because of the bell. I grab my stuff and head to study.

  ~*~*~*~  

Study wasn't much different than French class. I spent my time browsing the Internet, staring at the white walls, and thinking about Saeran.

God... Why do I keep thinking about him all the time? I don't even KNOW him! He's just a weird kid from my English class. I shouldn't let him get to me.

I end up giving up on using my computer and just take out my phone, even though it's against the rules. It's not like anyone ever follows those anyways. Plus, it's study. Why would my study teacher give a shit about what I did? It's just a free period. I open iFunny and check out the features.

Yeah... that was featured last year. And Trump memes. Boring as usual...

I sigh quietly to prevent myself from receiving unwanted and unnecessary attention. I ended up just swiping through my subscriptions, and eventually got to collective before the bell rang.

Damn... Time for English. I'll just ignore him as best as I can.
