He Fell For The Nerd

Chapter 6

"I only ever thought there were two kinds of love:the kind you would kill for and the kind you would die for. But you, my darling, you were the kind of love I would live for."
- o.g.k

As I stared into those light green orbs only one thought was running through my mind, Why? Oh, why is my luck so bad? Out of all the people I could crash into, it had to be the one and only Greek God.

I realized that I was still in his embrace and his eyes were twinkling with amusement. I escaped out of his arms, blushing furiously as I was not one for physical contact. I coughed loudly to gain confidence as me voice had been caught in my throat.

"Sorry," I muttered and without waiting for a reply, turned around to board the bus which was about to leave. He didn't call me back and I was thankful for that as I my energy to socialize had drained out because of the party on Saturday, and unlike my friend, Amelia, I am not a social butterfly.

I stepped into the bus and internally groaned when I realized that the only seats that were left were the ones in the front, I have always hated sitting at the front of the bus, I didn't even travel much by them but sitting in the front gave me a feeling that everyone at the back is watching my every move, and it really feels creepy.

The bus lurched forward and as it was going to move the Greek God entered, scanned the bus and caught my eyes, I looked away, but not before catching the smirk on his face, he proceeded to sit in the empty seat beside my, even though there were a few left. I decided to just ignore him and connected my headset to my iPod, putting them in my ears. Hoping that he would get the message.

But alas! That cannot be the case, as the moment this thought came to my mind, one side of the headset was pulled out of my ear. I cannot even listen to my music in peace?! I turned to face him, glaring, again he looked pretty amused.

"Hey, you are a very bad company to have on a ride, you know that, right?"He said glancing at the earpiece and then at me.

There is no way to avoid him, I was saving my energy for the socializing I would have to do in school today, but the voice in my head said that I had to reply.

"Well, I did not ask you to sit beside me, did I?" I replied and made a move to grab the earphone out of his hands but instead of letting me have it he put it in his ear.

"Can't you give it to me?" I groaned.

He put one finger in front of me, indicating that he is going to give it to me, and seemed to be listening careful to the music playing. In My Blood of Shawn Mendes was playing through it. He pulled the earphone out of his ear and handed it back to me. I sighed in relief. I was about to put it back in my ear and continue ignoring him when he spoke again.

"Really? Shawn Mendes? Ew."

I exploded, "Shawn Mendes? Ew?" I said in a high pitched voice and I could feel some people's eyes move to me, but I didn't care,"Do really know what you are saying? You said Shawn Mendes and ew in the same sentence! You dumb egg, The two words do not go together, never have and never will, and I mean ok, everyone does not have a good taste, I understand, but you can't seriously voice your bad choice in front of a person who is listening to Shawn Mendes which really means that one probably like his music." I finished with a huff.

"Dumb egg?" He asks with a smirk. Uggh, it's taking every ounce of my will power not to give him another lecture, I seem to be doing that a lot around him. And why is he smirking and amused most of the time?

"Really? Out of the whole speech I gave you could only catch that?" I asked with exasperation.

"Okay, okay, I get it that you are a true fan of Shawn Mendes," He concluded.
