Obsession

Chapter 2

"What the hell is wrong with you? " my close friend Jenny asked. I was obviously distracted. My body was here but, my mind was somewhere else. I was thinking about one thing in particular. "Megan what the hell is up with you! Are you mad at me ?" Jenny yelled out. We were sitting in chemistry class during lunch like we always did on Wednesdays. It was our routine since the beginning of softmore year.

I slowly whipped back to reality and focused back on her face. "No I am not mad," I stated with a cheap smile. She was studying me like a review for a test. "Then what's wrong you've been staring at that same spot for half an hour. What's on your mind?" Jenny knew me really well, so she knew when I was lying. I couldn't get anything past her. Not even lying about my favorite color.

I inhaled deeply before I spoke then blurted it all out. "I'm in love, I'm in utter love. I am so in love the butterfly's are not only in my stomach there in my fingers. I am so in love that I can't even ponder anything with out seeing his face. Every thought, every word, every second, reflects back to him." I exhaled slowly and peered over to Jenny. I expected her face to be shocked but instead she wore a very huge grin. Her smile made me smile. We both just sat creepily smiling in a empty chemistry class room.

"Well who is the lucky fella?" The questions began.

"Stewart"

"Who on earth is that ?"

"He's Carlos's friend "

there was a pause, she looked over at me. Then she dove back in with questions.

"Where did you meet him?"

"At a gas station"

"When did you meet him?"

"I met him today .. Well ....This morning"

Jenny scooted back in her chair as her eyes rolled back.

"You just met him today?" She asked again here eyes still bulged open. This is the normal Jenny now. She was wild and judgemental just like always. "Yes like I stated before Jenny." I reassured her. Jenny scooted back towards me. "Are you out of your mind. How do you know your in love after one day!" She yelled still scooting her chair closer to me. I began to feel under pressure. "I know I'm in love because, I have never felt this way before," I said as I rose up out of my seat. I felt exhilarated with emotions, I just wanted to show the world how I felt. Jenny pulled my arm bringing me off of my cloud nine moment. I sat back down preparing for her speech. "How do you love him you barely know him," she looked worried as she spoke. She whistled,"I doubt you even know his last name." She gave me a know-it-all look. I don't blame her though. She was actually right about some thing. I didn't know Stewart's last name. Did that matter ? No, it didn't matter to me because I was utterly, definitely in love and no one could tell me different."Stewart, is my soul mate!" I screamed out loudly enough for anyone in the hall to hear. That is when the door crept open.

My face flushed, I hoped that no one heard that. The door peeled open more and I could see the chemistry teachers little head pop in. He was old and had gray hair. He had worn old fashioned glasses and had a oblivious persona about him.  so I didn't mind if he heard. I adverted my attention back to Jenny. She still looked shocked and hurt even. The face she wore now, I'd never seen before. "Jenny, listen I'm in love and nothing you say or do will get me out of it." Jenny frowned up obviously speechless. I grabbed my belongings and threw away my lunch. "Jenny, don't worry about me. I am fine." Jenny gave me a sideways look and whispered her parting words. "It's not you I'm worried about." I scurried out the room. I couldn't help but fondle with the words she said ,"it's not you I'm worried about" . I didn't understand what she meant by that. Well that is until it was to late.
