Chapter Five: The Apology.

***

Deliah's POV.

What the fudge is Keanu doing here? We do not share this class. Trust me, I would've noticed.

"Mister Collins! What are you doing here? " Mr. Sander yells.

"I'm just running a quick errand sir," he says still smirking and making his way toward me. I literally felt my heart beating in my throat. He continued walking, not caring about Mr. Sander's protesting and came to a halt when he stood right in front of my table. He took something out of the inner pocket of his jacket.

A rose. A chocolate bar, my favorite by the way, and a note.

He then bent down to whisper something in my ear but I moved back until Armando held me still and Keanu leaned in again.

"I'm sorry,Deliah" he whispered and the feeling of his breath against my ear gave me goosebumps.

And with that he gave me a very innocent smile, turned around and exited the room and as soon as he exited  the whole class started talking, whispering and going crazy, especially the girls.

Mr. Sanders was now death glaring at me and I gave him a What Did I Do? look. After a few minutes Mr. Sanders gave up on trying to gain control back over the class and let us do what we want. And I was praying for the bell to ring because I did not like the look I was getting from Armando.

"Aww. Your blushing. Keanu made you blush?" He said pinching my cheek and I slapped his hand away.

"I am not blushing. It's hot in here," I say lamely. I mean like, who wouldn't blush if their crush apologized to you infront of the whole class AND gave you a rose and chocolate. I was on cloud nine.

"No it's not."

"Yes it is." The bell saves me from my terrible excuse and I jump up, grab my bag and my new accessories and walk out of the classroom.

I made my way to my English class and there was a note on the door.
Teacher absent. Students must go to Ms. Evans' classroom for free period.

I mentally celebrate this moment because math is my favorite subject and I really didn't fancy a boring lesson about verbs. When I enter Ms. Evans' class most of the students are already here but they're all standing infront of the classroom.

"Everyone. You will now get your assigned seats. We'll start with the best scores at the back so that the weaklings can sit infront and actually pay attention. First up Miss Lodge and Mr. Collins."

No! No no no! I officially hate Math class. Or I love it. Ugh. I'm so confused right now.

I make my way to the back of the class and Keanu is hot on my trail. I forgot he was freaking smart. Miss Evans reads the rest of the names and in 5 minutes time everyone is now seated.

"Okay, class. Since this is a free period you can talk but I want you to whisper and stay seated. Deal?"

"Deal!" The whole class agreed and 70% of them took out their phones while the other 30% started chatting.

"Did you read my note?"

"Beesus!" I shout when out of nowhere Keanu whispers in my ear.

"No, I did not." I turn myself fully to him.

"Well go on."

I take out the note and open it.

I'm sorry I touched your behind. But can you blame me? You have a really great ass. Please forgive me and accept this rose and chocolate slab (its your favorite btw) ;-)

~Collins.

"You call that an apology?"

"Hey! It came from the heart. That's all that matters right? Anyway, I wanted to ask you something, you're not seeing anyone are you?"

"Well I'm seeing you right now. And the whole class and this pencil-"

"Funny. Are you dating anyone right now?"

"Nope. Why?" I raise my eyebrow at him.

"So you're not with Damon?" He asks leaning forward.

"Nooooo. Why?"

"Just asking." He says leaning back again and giving me a jawdropping smile.

Man. He is gorgeous.

"So are you coming to Thursday's game?"

"Yes, I am. What's with all the questions?"

"Just curious" He says as he tucks a piece of my hair behind my ear and I slap his hand away.

"Don't do that"

"Why?" He leans in. " Do I make you uncomfortable? " his mouth is now gently touching my ear.

"Yes- I mean NO!"

He pulls back with a huge satisfied smile and I face palm myself. That was a huge mistake. For the rest of the period I read a book on my phone while Keanu tries making small talk, trying hard to make me not forget the mistake I just made.

The bell rings and I jump out of my seat and speed walk as fast as possible out of this damn school. I sigh in relief when I notice Damon is already in his car so I just climb in and buckle up.

He notices the rose, chocolate and note I held in my hand and smirks.

"Oh stop with the smirking! I've had enough of that for one day. Just drive"

"As you wish, " Damon says, still smirking, and starts the engine.
