Mr. Mendes

Welcome Back.

Lexi.

The snow was sticking. I could feel the cold sneak through my light sweater as the wind blew on my hair. There was the sound of cars pulling up to the school, and horny teens rushing to their partners.

I know, I'm a teenager myself, but I am nothing like them. The way I was taught as a child, I learned to be a punctual, polite, young woman. Although I am sixteen years old, my hormones would more than likely take over my life, but they haven't, and I plan on keeping it that way.

I walked up the steps trying not to slip on the ice. I managed to make it through the doors, only to be trampled by my three best friends; Amanda, Emma, and Sydney.

"Hey Lex! How was your winter break? Why didn't you call?" I heard Emma ask me while pulling me aside with the other girls.

"Em, go easy, and it was good, I was...busy," I said while looking down at my shoes.

"With who? Mark?" Sydney said with a smirk.

"N-no! We're just-" I was caught off guard when I felt a strong arm wrap around my waist.

"Hey Lex, how was your break?" I heard Marks' voice whisper in my ear which made me shiver.

"It was good and yours?" I said with a smirk which caused Amanda and Syd to laugh.

"Okay lovebirds we have to go to class," I looked up to see Liam smiling while wrapping his arm around Amanda.

"I agree, you two can continue this later," our friend Brian said as he kissed Sydney on the cheek.

"Wow, you guys are really immature aren't you?" I guessed playfully while grabbing Sydney and Amanda away to walk to class.

I could sense the guys following us as we walked down the halls.

"Hey! Em! Guys wait up!" We all looked back to see Chase run up to Emma and give her a quick peck on the lips while catching up to the rest of us.

"And you call us the lovebirds," I teased while looking back at Mark.

"Yeah whatever, moving on," Amanda said while flipping me off.

"Okay you two break it up, we don't need a cat fight to break out on our first day back," Liam said while playfully splitting us up.

"Don't worry it won't be with her, maybe just you," I said while pushing him away gently.

"Oh you're on little girl," he said and then I felt my feet come up from the floor.

"Amanda! Tell your boyfriend to put me down!" I yelled as Liam carried me all the way to class.

"Sorry Lex no can do!" I heard her call out as they all tried to catch up to us.

When he finally put me down, I playfully smacked his chest.

"You are such an ass," I said and we both laughed while waiting for the others.

"Yeah Lex, you've been telling me that ever since we met each other," he teased while rubbing my head.

"Well I can't help it, I've known you since we were five," I said and fixed my hair back into place.

"Damn you guys are fast," I heard Mark say, trying to catch his breath.

"Or you guys are just slow," me and Liam said in unison while acting like children and sticking our tongues out at them.

"Yeah whatever let's just go to class," Emma said and walked into the room.

"Hey Lex, did you hear? I guess we have a new teacher," Syd said and I shook my head.

"Doesn't matter, probably still boring as the last," Mark said while dragging me into class with him.

When we all walked into the room, and many people started saying hello to me and I just smiled. I wouldn't really consider myself 'popular,' but people though of me as that. I never really liked the idea of being called that, but then again, I couldn't do anything about it.

As we walked towards our desks, I noticed a man writing on the chalkboard, and I didn't know what it was, but it certainly was getting my attention.

"Hey? Earth to Alexis? Time to sit down," I saw Emma waving her hand in my face which snapped me out of my daze.

"Oh right, sorry," I said and took my usual seat next to Sydney and Liam.

As I sat down, I continued to talk to Sydney and turn around to Mark asking me questions about my plans after school. I can tell you right now, I never had feelings for him, nor will I ever...I hope.

We kept talking, until a male voice caught our attention.

"Alright class, I am your new teacher, Mr. Mendes," I heard him say as he turned around and then I could feel everything coming to a halt.

Holy shit.
