Chapter 4

It was twenty minutes later. There wasn't anyone in the cafeteria, but only for lilke thirty minutes, before the next lunch period. I still had to sneak out of class. I nudged Julia, who was sitting adjacent to me. 

"What the fuck, Morgan?!" Julia whispered angrily. I pointed to the clock. "Oh shit" She thought for a second. Then she made it look like she fell out of her desk onto her head. "Ow!" she screamed. The class didn't even look. Most of them were sedcretly playing games on their ipads; to invested in candy crush to worry about the girl that jus busted her ass in the middle of class.

The teacher asked her if she was okay. She didn't respond. She moaned oh-so dramatically. 'I can take her to the nurse's office" i said. "Yeah, would you?" said the teacher. Both of us walked out of the classroom with earned grins. 

"You can walk to the office right" i asked in a sarcastic tone "Yeah bitch i can kick you in the face too" she said while laughing. 

I almost ran to the cafeteria, but slowed down right before i approached the entrance doors. I peeked through to see if it was empty. It was.

I walked down the seats, but I didn't see him, until i saw him. I tried to ponder how an average boy couild make the same thing that every other boy wears so sexy. 

"Hey" he said. His voice was pretty low, but he pretended to make it lower, which made me giggle a bit. On the inside of course. "Hi" i finally was able to say. "Sorry that our previous encounter was....cluttered. I wanted to see you again." he said. 'Why alone?" I questioned, Then i began to worry that he was embarassed by me; because i was ugly or whatever. "I told you. I wanted to see you, just you." Okay, so change of perspective: either he just wants to get in my pants (which wasa dress) or, he was... genuine.

"oh" i said. I was now distracted by his pearcing blue eyes, that were now staring at my not-so-piercing hazelish eyes. I was also distracted by his sandy blonde hair that was shaved at the sides and had a quiff on top, and his biceps that were evident even through the long-sleeved button down of the uniform, and his face, and jawline that was so sharp it could cut me..  deep.

"why?" i asked. "why what?" he responded. "why me? all of the beautiful people probably surrounding you and you choose me. why? "because you're a different kind of beautiful. you're unique." he responded. what the hell did that mean? I didn't think I was any kind of beautiful. 

"thanks" i said, blatantly awkward. Then he just stared at me for a little. I didn't say anything, becasuen i rather enjoyed his attention. "you wanna go out sometime?" he asked. The look on my face had to be priceless, becasue he bursted out in laughter. When he laughed I saw his teeth. I could tell it had been a while since he had braces, becasue the gap in his two front teeth was resurfacing. 

"look, Morgan. I'm gonna need you to understand that I am into you- i like you. And frankly i'm surprised some other guy hasn't seen what I see in you." he said, while half laughing, "you're chill"

I don't think I've ever ben called chill before. I liked it. "Thank you Matt... I... I needed that..". "No problem," he said, "I just thought that you should know the truth... about yourself." 

At this point I had no idea what to say to him- i was numb. Numbed by his beauty, numbed by his words, numbed by his presence. 

He gave me a long- or at least it felt long- and tight hug. during which i was introduced to the several other muscles on his 5'11 body. Then the bell rang, and it we sneaked out of the cafeteria. And then the day resumed. My thoughs consisted nothing but him for the rest of that afternoon. Most of them were questioning what he hell had happened, and was it real or not? Yes, it was.
