Chapter 2 - Personal Space

His voice sent shivers down my back as I thought of the impossible. Any is possible so better be prepared.

Ms Diana hands out the sheets, Aaron slide me one with a smirk on his face. What are you thinking?

"Right, I'll be back" She randomly walks out the room. Once she's gone the room turns to chaos, I quietly get on with my work till the jerk starts tapping my shoulder.

"Rachel"

Tap

"Rachel"

Tap

"Rachel"

Tap

"USHER" I yell a bit too loud and attract the attention of the room. Aaron plays it cool and I just sink in my seat. "Not so loud darling" He whispers in my ear. I push him back and show him my middle finger

"Come on, Ray. We're friends, aren't we?" He comes closer again. Doesn't he understand personal space?

"What the fuck do you want?" I sigh, enough of his stupid game.

"Nothing" He smirks, coming way to closer so that our noses are only inches apart. He stares deep in my eyes and I find myself staring at him.

Don't make yourself vulnerable. You chose to hate him so stick to it

In a moment, we look away. He looks happy for some reason but I just avoid him and look back at my work

Where my effing sheet?

I scratch my head, searching for my sheet. I swear it was here, where the eff has it gone? It can't have just grown legs and disappear.

Diana walks back in and Aaron hands shoot up. "Ms, I finished" No way he could finish that quickly. I glance at him and realize he has my sheet.

How the eff is that possible?

Curse his beautiful eyes.

Aaron was 6ft and something, I don't know, just very tall compared to me. He leans back in his seat which makes his face more visible. His dark brown hair glows as the light hits it. It's messy, tangled except the perfect quiff fixed on his forehead. He crosses his arms as he waits with a cute innocent face. He looks around and sets his light hazel eyes on me. He licks his lips and the corner of his lip curves as a smile appears on his face. He lifts his arms up, running a hand through his hair and I catch a glance of his defied jawline as he tilts his head and yawns.

Ms walks over. "Very well, Aarun" she smiles

"It's Aaron" he corrects with a cheeky grin. I had done french for four years and Diana favourite student was frigging Aaron Usher. She stares at him, taking MY sheet and stalkers back to her desk.

"That was my effing sheet" I growl once her back is turned

"Are you sure, it didn't say your name on it" he shrugs

"Oh fuck you" Cue my eye roll. What a fucking lazy idiot

"Gladly"

"Urgh"

"Not like that, Darling" He puts his arms around my shoulders, pushing our bodies closer. Again, personal space!

"Don't call me that" I slap his palms, throwing him back in his seat

"What? Darling?"

"Yes" I sit up in my chair, crossing my arms on the the table, forcing my weight on my arms. A piece of my hair fall onto my face but as I brush it back, I feel another hand, pushing my hair back.

"I call you darling because you are my darling"

***

"Anna" I jump onto my friend as I leave French. Usher was behind me and I didn't want to see him anymore

"Rachel" she shrieks. "Let me go, you are suffocating me" She takes my arms off her

"What happened?" She asks as make our to science

"Aaron the fucking idiot happened" I take a deep breath. Finally Usher free. French lessons are going to be torture from now on.

"Talking about me. I know I'm irresistible" An annoying voice comes from behind us and I didn't have to look back to see who it is

"Screw you" Anna says as I listen to his footsteps coming closer. So close that his arms find a way around my body. Again personal space!!

"Let me go" I push his heavy arms off me and grab Anna and dash off.

"What a..." Anna sentence is left unfinished

"I know, I have to sit next to that for French" I inform

"Yeah, everyone saw that. You and Aaron" She grins as we reaches the stairs

Oh shut up, he doesn't understand personal space" I give her a slight push

"You sure? Only it seem you were enjoying it" She smirks

"I'll throw you off the stairs" I threaten and she shrugs "I'll take my chances"

***

"We meet again" Aaron smirks from across the table. He continues to tap the table in a rhythm and shake his head like he is some rocks tar

"What do you want Usher? I've had enough of your silly games" I sigh

"I want revenge and I intend to make you pay till you feel pain" His tone changes to dangerous and I know he isn't kidding. This little game is to get under my skin.

"Aaron...."

"Is this seat taken?" Another voice interrupts our conversation
