CHAPTER 4: EYE OF NEWT

In life, bad things happen that change things, some frustrate you, some make you angry, others make you want to throw yourself off a cliff.

"How come your face is suddenly flawless? You had a bad case of acne and pimples yesterday." Jack's amused voice asks.

I am so stupid and dead.

I woke up really late this morning and had to rush like there was a fire. I barely remembered my disguise, but when I applied it all in the limo, I forgot the make up for my face and now my flawless skin is out on display.

Just to clarify, I'm so dead.

"Well?"

I blink up at him, completely dumb. How am I going to get myself out of this?

"Ana? Can you hear me?" He asks, waving his hands in front of my face.

"Uh um, of course is my skin flawless?" I ask stupidly.

He raises an eyebrow, "yes it is, like absolutely flawless"

I laugh nervously, "really? I tried a new facial cream yesterday and the label said overnight magic, I didn't know it actually worked" I lie quickly, bringing my hand up to touch my face.

He raises an eyebrow, absolutely not convinced, I don't blame him, what kind of preposterous story is that?

"Really?"

I nod, "I can't believe it either"

He shrugs, "that's pretty cool, can I have some? I have a friend with a terrible skin condition"

"I threw it away" I blurt instantly.

Cue eyebrow raise.

"I should be going, I have to do something bye" I turn instantly and all but run away.

Before I know it, Jack is right next to me again. "Thought I'd walk you to class since we have the same classes" he says.

I turn to him and give him by best glare, "Jack I told you before, we don't have to talk, in fact I don't want us to talk, I'd appreciate it if you left me alone, thank you very much"

Not waiting for him to reply, I turn and walk away to class.

Five seconds later, he's walking beside me again, "what are you-"

"I'm walking to class, its not my fault that we have the same classes now is it?" He replies smugly.

I give him a tight smile and proceed to ignore him.

Throughout history, I can feel his gaze burning a hole in my head which is very uncomfortable. Luckily, we don't meet for our project today so I don't have to talk to him.

During English however, I accidentally drop my pen and when I reach down to pick it up, he does so too and our hands and eyes meet.

He smiles at me and I can't help but stare, he's unusually tall and has a dark aura about him, he looks like he has the ability to snap me in half without breaking a sweat. But when he smiles, his face transforms  into an angel's and a warm feeling spreads through my chest.

Its disgusting.

I blink severally then sit up again and face the front of the class once more, I can still feel his gaze and I know he's smiling, no doubt amused at my expense.
