Falling in love with a jerk

Part 2 : Isabelle

"Mr. Troian? What are you doing here? You are supposed to be in your classes now!" A woman supposedly a teacher walked our way. She had pinkish glasses that pointed upwards, she had a body like a pencil. She looked at me up and down and said:

"And you are Mr. Gryan? I see."

I frowned and nodded to her question. She looked around at the students around and saw Connor and Ryan.

"First day of school and you two are starting to get in trouble, isn't those your friends, Seth?"

Seth politely talked back to the teacher:

"Yeah, they are but I am not the one that beat them." He smiled to the teacher. I made a disgusted face to him.

"Well, Mr. Gryan had never beaten a student so you better give me an explanation Seth!"

He got shocked by her answer. I smirked at the situation.

"You too will give an explanation Mr. Gryan, about the situation." If he could play the game of a good student so could I.

"Of course Miss." I said while smiling kindly.

Seth gave me a look and we walked to the office with him.

After the talking with Miss- I don't know, I exited the room of hers and was walking to my class. Then, I felt someone tightly squeezing my shoulder. I looked at the way of my shoulder and saw Seth, glaring at me like crazy.

"You're dead after school." He said with vicious eyes. "I'd like to see you try." I said with clenched teeth. He let go off me and I walked off at my class. I entered the classroom as if It just had started. The teacher doing the lecture, was a woman thirty-ish ages, young faced, elegant figure. She didn't get mad, didn't yell just said: "Oh welcome, Gabriel please take a seat." I got surprised by her reaction. As I sat down frowning to her. She looked straight at my eyes and said: "This is the first day; I won't tolerate this anytime more." With a little smile. I nodded carefully. The students seem to be talking about me, as I heard a few whispers:

"Oh he. . . wasn't he quite the loser."

"I heard he had a twin brother!"

"Didn't he have glasses on."

"He looks different." This sentence echoed in my ears a few times this day but I wasn't planning on changing my attitude.I would remain as I am. I wouldnt just change my attitude because of this shitty school.

After class, I was the last one leaving the classroom and the teacher called out to me: "Damian, could I talk to you for a second?" Damian?, how did she know? I frowned with her with shock.

"Don't worry, I'm your parent's friends. They told me to help you if you had any problems adapting but no one else knows your real identity, since you are homeschooled you surely won't know much about these kind of situations so don't hesitate talking to me if necessary. By the way I am Miss Reynolds, in case you don't know already." I nodded to her silently and walked towards the crowded hallway. So they didnt tell all the things to her either. Homeschooled? Very creative. At least she doesnt know my brother going to a different school.

It was more or less the same way the classes have been played out but the real act would be after school.

After school I was planning on going home immediately but at the entrance a bunch of guys, Seth also, was waiting for someone, this could turn out bad so I tried to change my route but Seth spotted me. "Look who's finally come!" He called out to me.

I turned towards him with a frown. "What do you want? "I asked already knowing what was going on.

"Ah ha ha you already forgot we had plans after school?" He said smiling brightly, then he walked towards me and grabbed my arm tightly. "Come with us behind the building. "He said clenching his teeth with an evil grin.

I didn't have another chance either way. There were at least 5 guys there and they looked to be way more powerful than the other two I have beaten up.

I followed them unwillingly.

Immediately after the corner to the place one of the guys grabbed my collar and pushed me to the wall. I couldn't do anything at this moment. I clenched my teeth.

"What are you guys doing!? "A girly voice said. I looked towards the voice. It was from a petite girl, black hair up to her chest, light makeup, and wore a dress perfectly fit for her.

Seth glared at her, "Isabelle, stay out of this..."

"How can I stay out of this? You are planning on beating a boy who has done nothing wrong to you! Besides, it's not even a fair fight, one to five, how coward can you be?"

"Shut u- "One of the five boys spoke up but was interrupted by Seth's voice saying: "Forget it, let's go." He said and everyone followed him to the entrance of the school.

I took a deep breath trying to settle. "Are you okay? "The girl asks me, concern in her voice.

"I am fine." I say smiling faintly. "You do remember me right; my name is Isabelle. You must be Gabriel. You've changed quite a bit."

I listened to her without saying anything.

"You seem more manly now, also You don't have glasses anymore. Are you using lenses. "She got closer to me while I walked backwards.

"Oh I don't remember you having freckles too."

She was quite observant so I had to be more careful with her.

"Ah I do use lenses now. And the freckles are because of the sun. We went to Hawaii this summer." I lied to her obviously, I had to fake it.

"Oh that's weird. I remember seeing you on your garden this summer."

I panicked for a moment there. "Ah- ha, that should be my twin brother. He comes home summer time."

"Oh, that's good. The change is good on you." She said smiling brightly.

"- Um, thanks (I guess)" I said awkwardly.

"Oh well, see you at school tomorrow!" She said while walking to the main entrance of the school.
