Fighting Flames

Chapter -9

The parking was filled with curious gazes as I stepped out of the car.

  I had expected it. Being non existent in school people are not used to sights like this. The nerd and the bad boys.

Well chaps you are in for a surprise. I was going to reveal my identity today.

Today was a special assembly held. The teacher's were going to discuss the things for our education and how they are making the assignments fun and get us interested in our studies.

Sometimes I do wish that I could be a normal teenager, a girl whose biggest problems included her wardrobe and guys and not someone people were scared of.

I didn't know how I was going to introduce myself but what I didn't know was that it was a thing I didn't have to worry about.

Our day was divided into halves. We were to attend all the classes before lunch and after lunch there would be the assembly.

My day should have been normal it it was not for my entry in school. People gave me glances and maybe whispered about me after I left. But could care less.

I wanted the day to end. I wanted to go to David and ask for answers.

The bell rang indicating the end of the period.

One more period before lunch. The next was art.
I made my way towards
my locker to take my stuff.

I entered the class and realized that almost all students were in the class. I was not late, in fact I was on my regular time.

I made my way to the back of the class. I took a seat and put my earphones on listening to music calm my nerves.

There still five minutes before the class starts and our teacher Mr. Romero is mostly late. I looked up when I heard a tap on my desk and there stood Dustin with a big grin.

He was in my art class and I didn't know.

I smiled in return as he took a seat beside me.

"You have any idea why everyone is early in the class today?" He asked to some girl sitting in front of him.

"Don't you know? Amy today is going to speak off to some nerd. Everyone wants to see that" she shrugged.

"Oh" replied Dustin and looked at me.
As if on a cue Amy entered.

Our teacher was still not in class.

She made her way towards me as I matched her eye contact.

"Get up" came her voice high pitched voice.

I looked up at her, removed my earphones and raised my eyebrows.

"Sorry what?"

"I said get up."

"No"

"What do you mean no?"

"By no I mean whatever is meant by no. I thought you knew the meaning of no. "

"There is no such word as 'no' in my dictionary. I get what I want and I want this seat. "

"I must say you have a horrible dictionary. It is a word that means I refuse. And for you get what you want I must say you are a spoilt brat."

"I want to sit next to my boyfriend is it such a crime?" She looked at the class.

Drama queen

"Who said I was your boyfriend. There was never an 'us' so get this clear through your thick head that I am not your freaking boyfriend." Said Dustin.
