Destined

Chapter 2

All the girls were talking about him including the glitz girls- as they call themselves. It consists of Tamara, Sandy and Britney; they were all barbies and all they talk about is boys, makeup and people they think they are better than. They are the most popular girls in school and they look at my friends and I like dirt.

"Seriously, there's hot and then there's HIM" Wendy whispered to me.

"Tell me about it!" I replied, there was no point denying the obvious. I didn't like boys around here because they are annoying and stuck up and I am always forced on my studies to notice any of them. However, with him it's different and I feel like I'm drawn to him in a way.

The bell rang, taking me away from my thoughts as Wendy and I waved good-bye to Mark and headed to our first lesson of term- maths. As I sat down on my sit, it became quiet. I lifted my head to see the new boy making a glorious entrance and the person that seems to silent everyone with his mere presence.

"You can sit next to Aaliyah over there, but I must warn you she is really intense- so do not let the way she stares at you frighten you; like she is doing right now" Everyone laughed at Mr Stevens comment and I blushed a deep red. He is the only teacher at the school that thinks he's the best thing that as happen to this world and he always thinks he is funny. I couldn't focus on his intended "joke" as he was now sitting next to me. His smell is really unique, it's like leather mixed with soap and something else that I just couldn't explain. It was alluring.

"Class, welcome back" Mr Stevens said turning my attention away from his breathtaking smell. I saw the glitz girls and every girl in the room looking at me with envious eyes. The lesson dragged on and I felt agitated because occasionally, I would feel his eyes on me and I couldn't stand being this close to him. He makes me feel........... things that I didn't want to be feeling. The bell rang reliving me from the torture.

Quickly, I got out of the classroom, breathing a sigh of relief.

"Hey, what's up with you?" Wendy asked concerned.

"I dunno but the new boy makes me feel.. things when I am near him" I confessed.

"OMG! You like the new boy! Finally somebody you are interested in, I thought you were into... you know"

"you thought I was into girls?"

"Well yeah, you never talk about boys and when I do, you always ask like you are uncomfortable. But this is exciting news, I mean the boy is gorg...." She trailed off as the new guy stood next to me.

"Hi, I'm Josh" His voice sending shivers down my spine. I couldn't bring myself to speak, I was frozen.

"I'm Wendy and that's Aaliyah" Wendy answered for me, even though his eyes were on me.

"I was just wondering, where room 55 is"

"Down the hallway to the left, opposite the library" Wendy replied and I was still frozen. Josh gave my one last longing look before in left.

"What just happened/" I asked even though I knew the answer. Josh makes me nervous.

"Damnnn girl, you got it badddd"

My encounter with Josh was still fresh on my mind throughout the day and I was deep in thoughts after school that I didn't realize i bumped into Tamara. She gave me a dirty look and stuck a middle finger at me. She has always been horrible to me since her boyfriend kissed me in year eight. I thought I got rid of her after secondary school, not knowing that she didn't go to London for sixth form like rumour said she would.

"Bitch" She mouthed at me. All of a sudden something clicked inside of me and I don't know what happened next but I think I wished or said that I would like her to fall down. And it happened

There was no water on the floor but she just fell over. She stood up staring at me with wide eyes and then she rushed out of school, with her cheeks blazing red from embrasment.

'Are you alright?" Wendy looked at me with concern for the second time that day.

'Yeah...I just.... I'm fine' I replied shakingly.

"Are you sure?" She asked worriedly

"Yes I'm sure, let's go" What have I done? All of a sudden I felt the urge to turn around and I wasn't quite sure but I thought I saw Josh.
