Can I Really Be Your Mate?

Chapter 3

Monday morning I told Eliza to go before me and to wait for me over there.

"Hey Sarah hurry up we have an important class today, let’s go in class. "Eliza said while practically pulling me to the class

"Important? What are you talking about?

"What do you mean by what important? Our bio project which always held, out of school. Don’t you remember the teacher informed us?"

"Oh that, I completely forgot about it."

Just as we entered the teacher came after us

"Okay class hurry up take your seats, the selection of groups will be starting"

After that everyone was settled now the selection was being lead 

"Okay class this jar contain chits of papers with your names. The first group will be……, the fifth group is Elizabeth and Brandon, the sixth group is Kevin and Gwen and the seventh group is ben and Sarah and the…..

"Eh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" A girl yelled, when I turned, I saw the same girl who hugged Eliza's friend at the park.

"Shut up miss. Let us continue Miss Julie!

"But sir…" there she intervene again. But the teacher didn't paid her attention and continued.

"As I was saying the eighth group is Julie and peter.

"What??? I don’t want to group with that nerd.

"Be quit please miss. Okay the ninth group…… and the last group will be Stephan and Stephanie. Alright now, this is an important project which will count for your finals and there will be no more changing of partners in any group. Is that okay Miss Julie." said the teacher eyeing her

"Yes, sir." she replied annoyingly

"Give your best students and as you know there will be a trip after that. “Said the teacher smiling, "now meet with your partners and discuss for today"

I was very nervous as I have never talk to someone here except Elizabeth. As I was sitting, thinking about the topics of the test, when I noticed the boy from the park coming towards me. I felt more nervous now and sat straight on my chair, my whole body started trembling with a strange feeling. He arrived near my desk and said;

"Hi, I’m Ben Tennyson, your new partner. Nice to meet you."

"h-hi." I replied stuttered

"You are nervous. “He said smirking at me

"No!! Not at all, I’m fine. By the way my name is Sarah smith.

"You are new here right, since last week. I had noticed you a couple of times."

"That’s more than a couple of time that you saw me. Actually I had noticed you staring at me in those couple of time that you are saying. Am I right? Or it is just my imagination, maybe. “I asked him raising my eyebrow.

"Um, aah. I was not really staring at you. "He said avoiding looking at my face

"Oh really!!" I said giggling

"Okay I was looking at you but not staring. You can say that admiring. "Now he said smirking

"What, Admiring? Who me? What is there to admire in me and why would someone do that? "I said laughingly. That for sure was not true.

"Because you are so beautiful to me" he murmured  

 "Um did you say something?" I asked not understanding.
