Elise's POv


I clutched my Moschino bag closer to my body. Honestly, I didn't want to step into that room. 

When I got home yesterday, I went straight to my room and thought.

Seeing him was traumatizing. It was a horrific event for me. But was it for him? That's the real question. I spent hours of thinking that question over. I even was pathetic enough to go to Google for my answer. 

I typed into the phone, How do you know when a guy is really over you? 

And when I didn't find an answer from all of those online magazines, I typed in, How do you know when a foreign guy is over you? 

I was desperate. And I was pathetic too. 

Yet I needed to know if he was over me. There was something inside of me that ached for the answer. It honestly wasn't the feeling of wanting to know, it was the feeling of need. 

It was as if this small little piece of information was destroying the walls that I built up after we broke up. I fell for him, hoping that he'd catch me. He did, he didn't put me down. However through the years I guess I got to heavy for him to hold and he dropped me. 

I sighed, making myself busy next to the door that led to the classroom. I smoothed out my romper.

That's when Skylar showed herself and suggested, "Hey. What are you doing waiting out here? Are you okay? You look really nervous. And you're a little pale. Maybe you should take you cardigan off,"

What?! Was my nervousness that obvious? Oh my gosh! If she sees it then Luke will see it too! And I cannot have that happen. The only good advice I got from the internet was to act as if you're okay in front of them. Even if you're not. 

I realized that I still haven't repsonded to Skylar yet. 

"Yeah I'm fine. I don't know why I'm pale. I mean I ate breakfast and drank juice and water. Maybe I'm pale because I ate too much? I was waiting out here for you, silly!" I forced out a laugh and walked into the room with Sky right behind me. 

We took our seats and that's when she turned around and looked at me saying, "Well, at least you're fine. We were all kind of worried about you because it was your first day and you weren't answering us and the group chat too," she explained.

"You see, I don't surround my entire life around my phone," I laughed.

And this time a real laugh. Not the one I made earlier making an excuse up. 

"I know. It's surrounded by that little sketch book of yours," she smiled and pointed to my book. "What do you draw in there anyway?"

"Just random stuff," I said while opening it and showing her a few pages of my sketches of designs and  objects.

"Wow. You're really good, babe. You should enter a contest or something."

I smiled at her compliemnt. Before I could say anything, the bell rang.

Luke stepped in, wearing a red plaid shirt. Looking sexy as ever. I intaked a deep breath and didn't exhale. It was as if the air I just inhaled was the only thing keeping myself focused on what he was going to teach. Including writing math problems, even on sitting up straight. If I let that breath loose, I would collapse. Half by accident, because I'd feel dizzy, and the other half on purpose because I would rather be on the ground, eyes closed, then having to stare at Luke's gorgeous eyes while he gave the lesson. 

I realized that I'm thinking about paying attention and all, but really not doing it. 

So I listened in and heard, "So, with that said," with what said? "I'll pass your pre-tests out," he sighed.

As he was passing them out, I heard loud moans and groans coming from the mouths of my fellow students. 

No. No. No. 

My mind could barely process getting dressed earlier, nevertheless taking a pre-test. Did this even count on our final grade? I should have paid attention rather than causing myself a headache.

"Is the test going to go to our final grade?" Skylar asked, reassuring my thoughts. 

"No," Luke said while passing her a paper. 

I sighed but then panicked when I saw Luke start to come down the aisle, passing out our pre-tests.

Then I heard my phone vibrate in my bag. I took it out discreetley and saw that it was a text from my sister just saying "hey."

I rolled my eyes.

"Ms. Davis! Really? Right when we're about to take a test, too. Hand it over," I heard Luke say. 

Oh my gosh. 

"Now," he said sternly. 

I rolled my eyes again. Forcing myself not to look at him squarely, I handed it over.

"Thank you. You can come to my classroom at the end of the day. Now here's your test," he handed it over. 

I looked at it, remembering that it's not added onto our final grade and started.
