*Josh's POV*
Its been a very long first week of school, I've been labeled the 'quiet bad boy' across the school, mostly because I really don't strike up conversation with anyone they all seem too annoying. Plus no one has made the effort to come and talk to me, all except Isabella. All week she's been trying to talk to me, or give me a small smile in the hallway, and it warms me up inside that she's trying so hard to talk to me, but I have to keep pushing her away for her own good. But if you could see the look on her face every time I turn away and give her a nasty look and sometime just to sell it I roll my eyes. But she looks so hurt like I stabbed her in the heart with a knife a thousand times. And I don't understand why she seems so hurt, I mean we've only talked a few times its not like we're the best of friends.
But you could have been.If it wasn't for Austin Says my subconscious I tend to ignore it most days but it always comes back to bite me in the ass with a snarky comment that turns my thoughts against me.
****
It's now Saturday and because I finished all my school work I decide to go on a run in the park trail.
The one you walked with Isabella!
Damn it mind haven't thought about the girl all day and you were doing so well too!
I started jogging and my music blaring in my ears but I liked it like that blocks out all other noises around you and drowns out your thoughts and its just you and your music.
I rounded the corner to go deeper into the woods, and I saw a figure coming my way from far away, a girl it looked like it petite size an- SHIT its Isabella!
RUN FOR COVER! RETREAT MOVE CHILD! my mind didn't have to tell me twice! I whipped around and started a jog / run she was far away anyway... or so I thought! I turn around to se if she saw me and was following me and I saw her sprinting towards me at full fucking speed!
She caught up to me a jumped on me back and pined me down.
Damn this chick is strong.
"WHAT THE FUCK DID I DO TO YOU TO MAKE YOU HATE ME SO MUCH! ALL I EVER DID WAS TRY TO BE YOUR FRIEND AND MAKE YOU FEEL LIKE YOUR WERENT A SHUT OUT LIKE EVERYONE SAYS YOU ARE!!"
You see a normal person would put their full undivided attention on her and feel bad... but she lost me at the word 'fuck'. I took a good long look at her face, she was breathtaking.
Woah did you just say that?!?!
Hell yea I did! I battled my inner self. there's no fighting it she was-is beautiful. Her long wavy dark chocolate hair that framed her face perfectly was up in a pony tale and lose strands were in front of her face.
And her eyes! holy crap her eyes sure they were brown but I noticed that there there was a tint of green in them. I don't know if it was because she was fuming with anger or what but I'd never seen and thing like them. And the thing I liked most about her face was the freckles that spotted her nose oh so delicately like God placed them perfectly on her nose. I just wanted to reach out and touch them. and so I did.
Why the hell not! I told myself.
I reached out and tapped her nose ever so gently.
"I like the freckles on your nose."
"WHAT?!? JOSH DID YOU HEAR A WORD I SAID?!"
I gently shoved her off of me a sat up.
"Look Isabella there's things about me you really really shouldn't know about me. so its just safer for you to stay away from me."
"Well hell you could have said that when I meet you, sorry I tackled you and ill see you around. I guess"
And there's that face I don't like the one that kills me inside. I wanted to pull her back down to the ground and spill everything to her. But if Austin found out we both be in some deep shit. So instead I let her walk away from me.
