Him and The Online Stranger

Chapter 4: Confident

Whether you choose to move on and

Take a chance with the unknown

Or stay locked in the past

Thinking of would could have

You can stay starring up at the sun

But when it's all said and done

You have to remember life goes on.

Rinnnnngggg

The bell indicating that lunch was over just rung and unfortunately me and Jase had to go our separate ways.

I looked at his schedule and we only have 2 out of 7 classes together. I have him 1st and 7th period.

I head to chemistry, trying my best to ignore the deadly stares coming from each direction. Not the "I want to get in your pants" stares, like the girls gave Jase . It's the "I want to hit you over the head with a shovel" stares. That make me super uncomfortable.

It's not like they're jealous of me or anything it's more like they're mad, I disobey Stacy authority. I mean they should be giving Jase these death glares not me, it was his idea.

Not that you tried that hard to stop him.

I make it securely to chemistry class without being strangled by any of Jases thousands of groupies. Like, seriously it's his first day and he already has fans.

I make my way to my seat at the front of the class and wait patiently for the last couple of people to show up.

I turn my attention to the Mrs. Diane, who's now telling us that we're doing a lab and need to be in partner up in groups of four. I get up and head to the lab tables in the back of the room. I sit patiently waiting for some of the leftover smart kids to be partnered up with me like usually. While all the other people choice their friends.

I look down at my journal flipping to a empty page so I can take notes on the the lab we're going to be doing. I hear the stool squeak beside me and look up to see who's my partner is today. My eyes widen in shock the girl sitting beside me is no other than the devil in Prada herself, Stacy Wright.

All this thinking about Jase's fan girls. I totally forgot I have this class with Stacy I'm suppose to be on guard. How could I let her sit by me. Stay calm, Keira she can't do anything to me.

Who am I kidding?

"Hey Keira!" Stacy says a little to happy for my liking.

I choose to ignore her and look down at my journal, because any conversation with Stacy could never end well.

"Keira, she talking to you!" that's when I finally look up and realize that minion one and two are on the other end other the lab table.

Great!

"Chill, Maggie she probably didn't hear me she wouldn't ignore me. Keira's smarter than that." Stacy tells her best friend in a voice so calm that it creeps me out. Maggie rolls her eyes.

I decide that I don't have time for any of Stacy's juvenile games. I look at the chalk board and start reading the instruction for the lab.

I pick up the red food colored water examining how much oil to put in it.

"So I heard, you got detention" minion number two, Alicia asked aka the queen of gossip.

"Wow, word does travel fast in this school" I say under my breath before I can stop myself. Well I guess the whole ignoring them thing went out the window.
