Two Love's One Life

Chapter one

It all started back in high school , he was that quiet guy who only spoke to a couple friends . He would walk in late to calculus class almost everyday . He was smart but was to lazy to show it . No one really knows anything about his background , he would show up and leave at the end of the day .
     The first time we talked wasn't the best way , I ended up yelling at him because he wouldn't stop laughing at a joke his friend yelled out loud during the lesson . I turned my body and looked at him straight in the eye "can u stop laughing , some of us actually come here to learn "
He then snaps back "why don't you then turn your head around  because you just missed the teacher explain the radius of the circle "
After that I turned , feeling my cheeks burst into heat . Like I said , he's smart .
The second time we talked we were in biology , I was scrolling through my phone and he took a seat next to me . I looked up at him , his eyes were big and brown , he smiled and I looked away .

"For someone who comes here to learn , you ain't learning much from that device "
I look at him and roll my eyes , then put the phone away and look up at him again . "Why do you like to bother people "
He chuckles . "I didn't know I was bothering "
"Clearly you are " in say in a serious tone of voice .

After that biology class I left with him as my partner for the biggest end of the year project , I already know , it's my project because he won't do anything . Although we did exchanged numbers that day .

That night , a random number texted me .
"Ready for the project ;) "
I rolled my eyes and answered
"yes . Why do you care , it's not like you'll help"
I waited a couple of minutes no reply. I set my phone on the bed and continued to scroll to Facebook on my laptop. My phone lit up and I looked at the bright screen that made me squint . "Who said that I won't help " I smile and reply "when do we get started then " ? I wait and wait no reply.

The next day in biology was when I actually got a little information about him . Emmanuel , he was 16 . He said that we could work at my house because his house is always loud . I'm guessing he has a loud family . We ended up setting up a time for the next day . Around 6 he showed up to the park where I told him to meet me . He sat down on the bench and looked at me , "alright let's do this so the princess can get her perfect grade . "

I roll my eyes , "I am not a princess "
He chuckled .

That night we got most of the project done , he really surprised me with how smart he is , he figured it all out while I put all the information on the poster.

I remember that night he stared at me while I glued on the information , I looked at him "what " I said and smiled "you're creeping me out stop staring "
He turned around nervously scratching his head "I wasn't "
I laugh "uhhh yeah you were "
he clears his throat "so where are you from , tell me about you mrs perfect "

I roll my eyes once again at the nick name "I was born from here , Chicago . My mom is Hispanic, from Guerrero and my dad is from here as well. I have an older brother , uhm I think that's it honestly " I say . He nods "what about u"? I continue

"what about me "? He looks towards the sun making him close his eyes .

"Tell me about you " I said

"Nothing much , uhm I was born in Mexico . parents too . Came here when I was 7 and I have two sisters and two brothers . " his eyes are still closed .

"Nice , anyways I think we're done . " he looks away from the sun and down to the poster . "Looks like it "

"It was nice working with you " I pick my things up and began to get up .
