The Things You Cease To Tell Me

Chapter Two

       English is my first class and also my least favorite class.

      One reason is because the teacher, Mrs. Ralph likes to have other kids act out a scene in a book and do partner projects. I mean, I'm pretty good at doing the work but presenting it or having other people working with me doesn't usually end well.

      As the kids get in class and get seated, I start writing down the notes on the board that Mrs. Ralph has written down already. While I am writing I can feel most of the kid's eyes on me. Like they were just waiting for me to make a mistake or do something stupid. I guess they are also staring because I rejected and humiliated the star football player. As usual, whispers were everywhere.

       When I finish my notes I notice that no one was sitting next to me.
Finally, some peace and----
"Hey, Mrs. Ralph!" Someone yells at the doorway.
I spoke to soon....great.
"Mr. Yung, you're late." Mrs. Ralph says, rolling her eyes.
"Uhh... Mrs. Ralph I was only 5 mins late, it's not that bad compared to last time," he drawls, trying to charm the teacher.
The girls are looking at him with painfully dreamy eyes. I can tell they wanted him- bad.

"Just take a seat Mr. Yung," Mrs. Ralph looks like she was going to claw him to pieces. I don't blame her, I want too also. Aidan Yung is the school's troublemaker and he annoys the hell out of me. He is always late and he doesn't do any work. I'm surprised he is still in school.

      Aidan flirts with all the girls and he is best friends with Brian. I get why they are friends, they have a lot in common. They are both idiots, cowards, are arrogant and selfish, and they flirt with many girls. He is as bad as Brian except Aidan does more then flirt.

      I look around and notice that the only seat left is next to me. The universe must be against me for some reason, I think. It's like everyone didn't sit next to me on purpose so Aidan can do the work of being a shit head. This is going to be a long class, I think. Aidan sits next to me, flinging his bag on the table and sitting back with his arms folded and he tips his chair back. He has black hair, light skin, and green eyes. He was wearing a plain white T-shirt and jeans. He is another handsome guy but not my favorite person.

"Hey Brooke," Aidan says, smiling casually.
This is not going to be one of my good days.
I ignore him and keep working.
"You can't possibly think that this is more interesting then talking to me," Aidan says with his eyebrows raised.
"I think anything is more interesting then talking to you," I snap back.
"Hey I finally got you to talk!" He laughs in disbelief.
"Well if it's possible to get me to talk then it's possible to make you shut up," I reply.
"Oh I don't think you really want that." He says with a grin.
"Oh I really do,"
"I love girls who play hard to get. Makes it more challenging and fun." He says with a smirk on his face, "Also I know that when they do that means they want me the most and want me to notice them."
I gag at the thought. That would be one of my worst nightmares.
"No that's in your imagination. I would rather kill myself then be with you."
"Ouch, Wells, you hurt my feelings," Aidan says it sarcastically and with a pout.
"If you had any feelings Yung," I say with a smirk on my face.

     After that I went back to taking notes.  I think I finally got him to stop bugging me for now but knowing my luck he is probably just trying to find a way to flirt with me. Some of the girls are giving me these looks like they wanna strangle me which I understand. Being secretive and cold doesn't get you a lot of friends but I don't care for friends. I don't want friends- I don't need them either.

     The rest of the day went on like usual. People trying to talk to me and I just ignore them or fight with them. All of them are the same. They get on my nerves so much but I guess that's the price for being like this. Humans are jerks and are very untrustworthy. Especially with private secrets. People would use those secrets against you and make you miserable. Well I'm not going to let any one have that kind of power over me. I decided a long time ago to never open up to anyone so I wouldn't get hurt. But who knows how long that will last.
