My Mate JasperXOC

CH3-Class with HIM!

Bella and I are walking in the halls trying to find the gym and this Asian kid walks up behind us and asks: "Hey you're Elizabeth and Isabella right?" I groan internally. "Actually it's either Liz or Lizzy and Bella," I correct. He nods and says, "Hey, well, my name's Eric and I am the eyes and ears of this place. Anything you need: a tour guide, lunch date or a shoulder to cry on?"

I give Bella a look saying 'can you deal with this one?' and put my head down. She sighs and says, "Uh no we're more of 'the suffer in silence' types." "Good headline for the feature. I'm on the paper and your news babies, front page." My head immediately shoots up hearing those words.

I start to stutter, "N-no we're not. Uh, we uh please don't have any sort of...." "Woah woah, chillax. No feature." "Ok thanks." I give a fake smile and grab Bella's arm and walk off to our first class. Gym.

I love gym class. It's my favorite class, but the exact opposite of Bells. She hates anything that makes her move from her comfort zone which is books, bed, and darkness besides a small lamp on the bedside table.

Anyways we're playing volleyball in gym and volleyball is my go-to sport. Again the exact opposite of Bella. I have the ball because I'm serving and Bella is on the receiving team. I throw it up and strategically hit it away from Bella and low and behold her teammates end up passing it to her.

Damn it.

She hits the ball and it goes on the opposite side of the court to where the boys are playing basketball. It hits one of the boys in the back of the head.

I act immediately by going over to the boy to see if he's ok. As much as it kills me to talk to people, I end up putting up a front.

He turns my way and I say, "I'm so sorry my sister is very clumsy when it comes to sports.......and everything else." I semi-awkwardly giggle.

He stutters slightly, "No uh it's perfectly fine. I'm fine. So uh, you're Elizabeth?" "Liz or Lizzy. and my sister Bella is over there." I point to my shy sister as she shyly waves to him and he waves back. "I'm Mike. Newton. So you're uh from Arizona right?" He says with a smirk. I giggle, "Yes I am." Is this guy flirting with me? I think.

After I say that a girl, I think named Jessica, comes over to us and says in a bitchy tone, "She's got a great serv right? I'm Jessica by the way."

Knew it.

She holds her hand out for me to shake and I say: "I'd say it was nice to meet you, but I'd be lying." She kinda gives a shocked expression, but quickly covers it up with a fake smile you could see from miles away.

She lowers her hand away from me and I crinkle my nose in a cute, but fake mocking way.

I look back at Mike, "I gotta go, but I'll see you around." I say in a friendly way. Then I head back to the game and soon gym is over.

After gym I have English class. Bella and I head to our separate classes parting ways in a middle ground hallway. Once I make it to my second hour, I head in and go up to the teacher. "Hi, I'm the new student Elizabeth. Where do I sit?"

He looks confused for a moment, but then says, "Ah yes Miss Swan. You'll be seated next to Mr. Hale in the back." I turn and look around not knowing who he is referring to. I turn back to him and he says, "Oh. Mr. Hale raise your hand." I turn back around and look for a raised hand.  My eyes land on the said raised hand.

I was not expecting that.

The mysterious boy from the parking lot has his hand raised.

I feel my cheeks heat up. Omg.

I turn back to the teacher, hand him my pass and walk to my seat. I'm so nervous. Mystery guy next to me is looking at me like he's studying me.

I turn to look at him and he smirks. "My name is Jasper Hale. What's yours?" He says in a slight southern accent. I smile and say, "My name is Elizabeth, but I go by Liz or Lizzy. If you don't like either of those call me whatever you see fit."

His smirk gets a little bigger and he lets out a breathy chuckle, "Well then Elizabeth. It's nice to meet you." I inwardly groan and feel a little annoyed that he chose to not shorten my name. "Why don't you use your full name?" He interrupts my thoughts. "Um, I just don't like it."

I look down at the desk. "Well, I think it's a beautiful name to match a beautiful girl." I feel my cheeks heat up. "T-thank you." "No thanks needed it's just the truth."

I feel like I'm gonna pass out from the heat in my cheeks.

What is this boy doing to me?!

I look over at him again and see his smirk as prominent as could be without it being creepy. I smile back at him and turn back to face the board, just in time too because the teacher is just starting class.

I realize during class that I wasn't paying my full attention to the lesson, but on Jasper sitting next to me, whom I caught starring at me several times.

Why is this boy so interested in me? Is my last thought before the bell rings.

A/N

OMG, they finally got introduced to each other and had an actual conversation. This is a small thing but I promise in future chapters there will be more Liz and Jasper moments and they will get together soon. Look out for updates. Till next time bye my lovelies.
