Two Sides Of Tova.

Eight

    "Please take your seat Mr. Gillies and begin your essay". Mr Bentley said and then continued what he was doing.

  Jack passed by my seat and sat directly at the seat behind me. My body was getting hotter by the second, I didn't expect his new school to be mine.

  Due to our effectual closeness, I found it hard to concentrate on my essay. Ever since that day at the mall he never once called me and I couldn't ever forget our meeting at all.

  Ara-ñat leaned close to my ear to whisper ,
  "Seems like fate has brought you two again together. But your body language shows a little too much. Calm down. "

  She started to massage my shoulders slowly to calm the raging storm going on inside of me at that very moment.

I sighed deeply and began to focus on the task ahead of me. 

Forty-five minutes later the bell rang as every student began to gather their things in preparation for the next class.

  Hurriedly and nervously, I packed my things in my bag and dashed for my locker.

On my way to the locker, I could hear the gossip lingering on the lips of the female population and parts of their conversation were heard as I passed by,

Oh my he's hot'

Yeah he's to die for'

OMG I'll totally let him into my pants.

   Typical , they're ready and desperate for boys to notice them.

  I silently reached my locker and took out my biology notes for my next class.

  Suddenly , I felt a presence behind me.

Maybe its Ara-ñat, I thought.

  I turned to be surprised only to find  Jack smirking.

  "Hi". I said nervously and immediately looked to the floor to calm my nerves down.

  I felt his hand reach up to touch my chin coaxing me to look up at him.

"Are you avoiding me?". He questioned unsurely.

"No". I replied quickly.

  He chuckled then began to rub the back of his neck, I could see that he had a fair amount of thick muscle through his shirt as his biceps rippled when he flexed his arm.

I sighed deeply,

"I'm sorry for not calling you, my phone had problems and when i fixed it I'd lost your number". He apologized sincerely.

"Oh". I said in surprise. "Its Okay you're forgiven". I answered.

  He breathed out in relief.

"Well as you know its my first day here". he drawed. "I was wondering if you'd like to show me around today". he asked uncertainly with hope in his voice.

"Umm sure maybe after the next class, let me see your schedule".

  He handed it to me as i surveyed it i could feel his gaze on me as i looked up to meet his before i cleared my throat and then looked back to the paper.

"We have almost every class together surprisingly except 4th period and 7th today and Thursdays but I'll show you all the classes just in case , luckily we have the next class together". I said cheerfully.

"Well that's great lets go then".

  We walked in silence to the biology lab, as we were going I looked up to see his face and kept staring at how someone could look so perfectly carved, his well refined nose, his plum lips just waiting to be kissed.

Man, God's awesome. I thought

  As if he noticed, he turned and caught me staring. I immediately looked away just only to notice a growing smirk on his lips. I felt flushed, he smiled to my embarrassment.

   I looked again and this time found him staring at me deeply, for a moment we were unable to look away from each other until the bell rang for the next class.

  Within an instant, I took hold of his hand and ran all the way to the next class. Luckily , we arrived before the teacher had come. As we entered, all eyes became glued to us including Kendra , she looked at our entwined hands that i didn't realise we were still holding.

  "Progress". Ara-ñat whispered into my ear. I untangled our hands much to Jack's disappointment and led him to our seats which were close together side by side, then the teacher came in.

"Sorry i'm late class, i ha... oh we have a new student. What's your name please?". She asked in reckon.

He rose and answered, "Jack Gillies", then sat down.  "Welcome to Cross falls High, I'm Miss Rose Oaknard ," she said with a British accent she continued.

"Class open your books to page 115 . We are going to discuss about cells which is the simplest form of an organism or the most practically structured and most functional unit in the body of a living organism".

  As much as I tried to pay  attention, i couldn't because Ara-ñat keeps nudging me at my side and insisted i communicate with Jack.

I quietly took out my phone and typed something for Ara-ñat to see,

' I don't know if he'll reply ',

I showed it to her for her to read.
"Well you will not know if you don't ask him". She suggested. I sighed and then typed again.

  'Okay but what should I say? '

"Some thing relevant that comes to your head". She said.

I put my phone back into my bag and tore a piece and wrote down something and passed out to Jack.

Do you understand what the teacher is saying?

I passed it to him nervously hoping to get a response. He opened it and read it with a smile then he wrote something and sent it back to me .

Fairly enough

Ara-ñat nudged me at the side and said that i should ask him if he wanted to meet after school.

  Nervously, i wrote it down and passed the paper to him. My nerves were fretting as i  waited for his response.

He opened it then turned serious before turning to look at me then back to the paper before writing something down then passing it back to me with a smile,

Yeah.

It felt like my insides were jumping for  joy at the thought of hanging out with Jack. But Instead i smiled at him and folded the paper and put it in my book.

At lunch time, we walked side by side to the cafeteria.

"What kind of food do they serve?" He asked.

"Well we have a roaster for foods served at different days of the  week. Its changed every semester so this one's going to be different but don't worry, they're good".

  We entered and paid for our food then found a table in which we both occupied until i turned and saw Kendra and her minions approaching our table, i became paled.
