“Women were gravitating towards him from all directions like a planetary orbit.

Chapter 4

He was handsome. Fuck! Who the hell am I kidding? He was undoubtedly the most handsome man I have ever seen uptil now. With his baggy jeans and tight white T-shirt and a black jacket, he was enough to make a girl swoon and faint. Like literally. His dark golden hair was trousled as he repeatedly ran his hair through it. His sky light blue eyes ran through the cafeteria as they fell on the populars table in the centre as he nodded and walked leisurely but gracefully towars them. I gaped at him, at his angelic handsomeness as he smiled a crooked small smile before drawing a chair and sitting beside Shelby who immediately gave him a small kiss as if to claim her man.

I shook my head and turned to see Bryan still gaping at the mystery A.

" That's Alex Rider. Shelby's boyfriend, the most popular guy at our school. People literally worship the ground he walks on. Well I guess it is no surprise. He isn't only handsome but smart and rich too. You should see his car." Amanda said sighing loudly. She sounded not only bored but a little...I don't know disgusted?

" Well they are all major bitches and Alex is no exception." he said before snatching his tray and walkin out of the cafeteria.

" Wow what was that?" Bryan asked finally broken free of the spell Alex had on him. He furrowed his eyebrows and looked between us before sighing and looking at Alex.

I shook my head as I put the lettuce in my mouth. Yuck!

For the next ten minutes, Amanda and I talked about our lessons and teachers with Bryan occasionally commentiong on how fat the teacher's butt was or how good the sleeping in the class was. Overall, I guess my first day at Brookeland was going good.

I glanced at Alex when Amanda and Bryan were quarelling. He was smiling at what the black haired guy beside him was saying. There was another guy with curly brown hair sitting at the other end of the table, directly opposite Alex snogging one of Shelby's puppies.( that sounds real bad while saying it loud. Lol)

Shelby sat near Alex barely sparing an inch as she listened hard to what Ian was saying and occasionally giving a fake laugh which made both the boys irritated and me strangely happy. Alex's eyes never met mine which made me sad and dejected. Suck it up Brooke! It is not his fault that you are no walking talking diva. It was just like the scene in the restaurant except that Alex never even spared a glance at me. Did he forget me? Maybe he did. Should I remind him? No. That will be all too awkward. I guess I should forget about him. I nodded my head with a determined spirit as I looked at Amanda and Bryan. They were both looking back at me with confused faces.

" What?" I asked them. Did I have something on my face?

They both looked at me before bursting out laughing. My eyes twitched as I looked at them confused and slightly angry.

" What?!" I nearly yelled. Call me bi-polar or something but their attitude was pissing me off. They were clutching their stomach making me remember how they had laughed at me earlier. Not that I minded, they were my only friends.

" Your face!" Amanda gasped out, her face head as she laid her head on Bryan's shoulder who was taking deep breaths. She handed me a small mirror from her sidebag and as I held it in front of my face, I gasped.

Oh my god. I look like a freaking lettuce monster. Cut that even hulk would be afraid of me and go run screaming into the hills for his mom.

Lettuce green soup was spread all over my face even above my lips giving me a green moustache. What the hell! What was I doing?

I quickly shoved her back the mirrir before trying a desperate attempt at rubbing my face. I took my backpack before shoving the chair back and running out of my seat but not before sparing a glance at Alex who sat there with his friends by his side, smirking at me.

This was the last period. The two classes before it were not only boring but exhausting too. Exhausting because I couldn't force myself to listen and neither fall asleep on my first day. Bryan and Amanda were constantly chatting and the teacher were gladly ignoring them. Leaving me the sole victim of the torture.

I sighed running my hands through my dark hair and looking ahead of me. Amanda had gone to the ladies toilet and left me alone here in front of the toilet. I was careful not to enter because of some girls who were gossiping their heart away about Alex. I couldn't have heard all those things that they said that they wanted to do with him.

There was only a small room and the janitor's closet only a few hands away from the toilet. The boys toilet was on the other side as Bryan told me. The small room is usually locked and the janitor is in the charge of it. There was no one here at this part of the school- no one standing outside like a fool. The floors were clean all through out the school but unusually dirty here. The walls were clean though. The marble here had its stains and the air smelt uncomfortably of detergent and alcohol. Though I have no idea what it was doing there.

I looked at the opposite direction. The hallway went on long with a left turn at the end. There were a few posters on the white walls and nothing else.

Suddenly I heard a commotion from the other side. I whipped my head to the direction of the small room and the closet before shaking my head. No one is there. Must be the girls in the toilet.

" Lets go". I heard Amanda say from beind me. When did she come out of the toilet, I have no idea. Maybe I am a little too careless.

She looked at me with suspision. " Why were you looking that way?" She asked looking towards the deserted hallway.

" Oh nothing. Lets go. Bryan must be waiting." As soon as I say his name, Amanda's whole demeanour changes. She smiles at me before grabbing my hand.

I cock an eyebrow at her and she blushes.

We interlink our arms as we walk merrily towards the turn. Amanda hums a song which I believe to be one of One Direction. We walk towards the main area of the school.

Suddenly Amanda stops. She faces me, her eyes are worried.

" You do know Brooke that Bryan is gay right?"

My eyes widen for a second before I mask my surprise. " Amanda I-"

I stop myself as I realize that Amanda is gaping behind me. I furrowed my eyebrows and turned only to gape myself. Alex...Alex Rider was coming our way. His eyes were angry as he quickened his pace before his gaze fell on us. His eyes stared into Amanda's for a few seconds before they fell on me. I felt a euphorbic feeling as he noticed me. His beautiful blue eyes were hard and before I knew it, he gave me a scowl. My happiness immediately dissapeared.

" Alex!" a deep voice said from a few feet behind us as Alex's eyes quickly snapped to the guy's behind us and he nodded his head, his features positive.

Dejected, I looked back to see the handsome figure of the guy sitting beside Alex at the table. His hair was dark brown and his eyes were a warm brown. " I have been looking for you."

" I had been distracted." Alex said in his husky deep voice. His eyes looked at me for what seemed like a very short time before walking past me his upper arm touching with my shoulder brieflly.

I looked back at Amanda to see her staring at Alex's friends who was staring at me instead. I heard Alex fake cough from behind he broke out of the trance and smiled sheepishly at me and then at Amanda. His eyes fell on me again and he gave me a small smile, which I was too surprised to return.

I watched as the two of them walked away from us. Alex leading and his friend following him.

" What's his name?" I asked Amanda who was still staring at their retreating back.

" Hunter  Blake. Alex's best friend."
