6 - A New Encounter?

It was an absolutely horrible morning I had.

No, not particularly because I woke up on the wrong side of the bed, no, but more because I was annoyed at myself and second of all I knew there was someone who was annoyed at me. Also known a Liam Mckay.

Liam didn't come wake me up as usual and when I finally got out of bed from all my moping, he wasn't around the apartment either.

I guess he's already left to school

Since Ivan was also gone, probably drunk at his friend's house, I resorted to walking. Alone.

It hadn't been even five minutes when I see Greyson's car roll up towards me. I bite my lip and say a hello forcefully.

"Hi...Greyson" I say.

"Hey Isla! Thanks for last night! It really helped me, especially for the upcoming test" Greyson's perfectly pearly white teeth looked extra white today as he smiled back at me. "You wanna ride to school?"

Not particularly, except I really had no intention of walking. "I guess...um, if it's okay with you, that is"

I mentally hit myself in the head, why do I have to be so unsure of myself. Urgh. Stupid!

Once I got out of the car, I saw a few, no that's the wrong word... EVERYONE'S eyes staring back at me, with what's that word? Oh yeah, jealousy from some girls and disgust from some boys. It was quite pressuring to be honest. Greyson was about to escort me into the school, when suddenly, a gorgeous girl with a stunning body and beautiful blonde hair rushed passed me to Greyson.

"Grey! You were about to be late again! We have a school council meeting, let's go!" The unfamiliar blonde girl scolded.

"Yeah yeah, okay Mikki! I'm going, I'm going!" He put up his hands in surrender.

"I told you not to call me Mikki, like, a thousand times! It's Mikaela."

I stood there like a potato, not knowing what the heck just happened. "Um...well, I'll just excuse myself. Bye Greyson."

"Oh! Isla, see you later then!" Greyson rushed off leaving me, once again, in a shocked state.

The gorgeous girl took a step back and looked at me skeptical,before breaking out yet another pearly white smile. "Hey, I don't think we've met before, I'm Mikaela, co-vice captain of Florida State high, and you are?"

"Uh...Ilsa Nixon, I'm new to this school."

"Really? We don't many new students especially in the senior year, well, I have a meeting to get to, I guess we can talk more later! Toodles!" With her bright smile never wavering, she took off."

Liam...Liam...where art thou Liam?

Where am I you ask?

Well, I am currently running around the whole school, trying to find the individual named Liam McKay, and it is turning out to be a much harder task than I thought it would be.

I walk glumly back to the cafeteria,when I suddenly catch a glimpse of Alvan walking with a massive tray of mash potato.

Hmm...my lucky day!

"Alvan! Alvan, here!" He looks at me briefly, eyes wide open, before dropping his entire plate of food and runs away.

"Wait, Alvan! Don't run away from me!" I scream out across the hallways, earning myself a few death stares from a select amount of groups. Luckily for me, Alvan was a pretty slow runner and I caught up to him in no time. I grabbed the collar of his shirt and pulled him back, with force.

"Ahhh, don't hurt me strong woman!" He let out a high pitched screech and I apologized quickly back.

"Hey, Alvan, can you tell me, either where Liam is, or why he is STILL ignoring me." I asked.

He was at first hesitant but after staring straight into my eyes, he let it all out. "Okay, well firstly, I'm not exactly supposed to be talking to you right now, but you seem desperate so...I'll give it to you. Liam...Liam well I have no clue where he is at the moment but the reason he is ignoring you, is probably because of that one night you said you didn't know him. Which I think it's pretty true, but he overreacts sometimes. So yeah..." He trailed off.

There was definitely something he wasn't telling me, but I decided to let him off the hook for now.

"Thanks, I guess, I'll...figure out something to make up for it then...Thanks Alvan." I smiled slightly before turning away back to final period.

Ivan said he would pick me up around 20 minutes ago, so why is he not here...again.

Why do I sense deja vu?

I slump down on the curb of the road and stare at my phone for any new activity. "Oh my gosh, It's Isla isn't it?"

I look up for a mere second and squinting me eyes, I see a blinding light, oh nevermind, it was just Mikaela, her radiating beauty is really getting to me. How can someone look so nice? I swear I'm not lesbian.

"Uh, yeah, hi."

"What are you doing here, silly? Do you need a ride?" Still unsure whether I can trust this girl, but then again I don't want to wait yet another 20 minutes for Ivan, I accept her offer.

"Thanks"

"No problem, sugar." Sugar? Silly? Is this the new way of addressing someone? Using alliterative terms?

"So...Isla, how did you get to know Grey?" She asked.

"Um, well, he asked me to tutor him and we have a few classes together." Me trying not to go into full detail as I sort of didn't want to talk about him at all.

"Oh...that's great! I'm his best friend, if you were wondering. Ah, and look, we're here." She replied,.while letting out a girly laugh.

I gave her a small thanks and walked into the apartment before wondering. How did she know where I lived? Actually, how does everyone know where I live. First with Greyson, now Mikaela, holy, I hope I'm not being stalked.
