You aren't the guy I thought you were....(ON HOLD)

Chapter 3

The doors to the classroom were glass and they slide open automatically when you walked up to them. Wow now that is not something you see every day in a school.

There were only a few students in the room when we arrived. Everyone was talking to their friends and you could instantly tell who the queen of the class was. She was standing over near the wall with red heels, a red shirt and black shorts. She had long flowing strawberry blonde hair and well, she was pretty. I recognised her but I just couldn’t remember where from. Meh.

Ash and I quickly moved over to another corner of the room to observe the people. Everyone was in their own bubble and did not care what other people thought. Soooooo different from high school!

“Gees you were right there are so many hot guys,” Ash whispered to me while drooling over all the guys. Well o guess she is not nervous anymore. I just rolled my eyes and just stared at her with a are-you kidding-me-that-is-all-you-care-about look. She was laughing at my face when her eyes fell on something, well more like someone, over my shoulder. I slowly turned following her gaze when my eyes fell on him. Oh no he is in my acting class what am I going to do? If you haven’t already guessed it was Dylan. As he walked into the classroom many people greeted him and he just sucked it up.

“He is so dreamy but so up himself,” came a voice beside me, making me jump. She has short, pixie cute brunett hair with big, dark brown eyes. She was kind of glaring and staring with desire at him. She turned to me and said, “Hey my name is Lilly James and these are my friends Alison Sky, Rose Ashton and Kurt Short. They are all Sophomore and I’m a Junior just like Dylan and his friends over there.” Her words were all cut and angry when she said the last part. Weird.

“Hey, I’m Ellie and this is Ashleigh, we are Freshmen…… Do you mind if I ask why you hate him other than him being up himself and arrogant?” I said in a big rush not wanting to get her annoyed by question and looking down. She along with her friends burst out laughing at what I said. Ok now I’m so confused. I looked at them weirdly and glanced at Ash and she was confused too.

“It’s…..fine.......” Lilly said through laughter. When she finally stopped laughing she continued, “I used to be friends with them believe it or not. Dylan and I dated in Freshmen which was a very bad idea because he is such an……….” She trailed off looking at the group over my shoulder. I turned to find Dylan looking straight at me smirking like he was thinking something dirty about me. Just as I was about to turn around the teacher walked in and began class. Thank god!

Our teachers name was Mrs. Holiday and she was a total hippy. She told us to take seats on the stands. After about a 10 minute introduction she finally got to the stuff we will be learning and blah blah blah.

“Alright class, get into groups of five, when you are in your groups make a song that you will be singing in your groups together. The song has to be about a first love in a minor key. Make sure it has at least three harmonies on the chorus, and two on the bridge. Put the bridge into a major key for a tainted difference to the love song……… Oh, and tell a story and make it at least 3 minutes long. Alright go.” The teacher said before leaving the room to get a coffee.Everyone immediately moved to find their groups. I looked at Ash with a what-did-she-just-say look which she was giving back to me.

“El and Ash wanna be in our group?” Alison called over to us. She was standing with Kurt and Lilly. Where was Rose?

“Sure,” said Ash as we were walking over.

“Where is Rose?” I asked a bit worried.

“Chill bro, she is with her majorly hot, best friend of the devil, boyfriend, named Damon,” Kurt said while rolling his eyes, making me realise he was gay. Hah so typical. Kurt turned me so I could she her full on snogging some really hot guy. My eyes instantly scand the group. There was Dylan, Rose (who btw had boy-cute, black hair with red streaks and dark piercing eyes….she is gorgeous, just sayin’), the Damon guy, the blonde from before and some other guy with red hair and grey ish eyes. Overall the group is hot, as in they are all very attractive.

“Come on guys, lets get started on this,” Alison curtly while taking a seat on the other side of the room. Away from the other groups.

30 minutes later we had most of the lyrics and were working on the backing music.

“Ms. Do you want us to show everyone what we have got because we are mostly done,” said the blonde while leaning on Dylan’s arm. I swear I know that girl.

“Of course, that would be great. Thank you Tyla just go get set up now,” Mrs. Holiday said to Tyla. Tyla? Oh my gosh! No! It can’t be her……… how? What? But, no!!!!!!!!!!!! everything felt like it was tumbling down on me and I could not breath.

“El……… Ellie? Hey El hello?” Ash said while waving a hand in front of my face. I blinked a couple of time and looked at her.

“Yeah whats wrong?” I said in a whisper, afraid my voice would crack.

“You were zoned out for a bit there, Rose’s group are about to perform for the class,” Ash said back while looking at me weirdly. I just nodded and turned my chair to face them. I could feel Ash’s eyes following my every move. I felt really sick. I need to get out of here. Now! Just then I came with a brilliant idea. Walking swiftly up to the teacher.

“Um…. Excuse me Ms.  but I think I am going to throw up,” I whispered to the teacher just as the performance was going to start. She gave me a stern look.

“Alright go back to your dorm and rest. See you tomorrow in class,” she whispered back. With one last glance at Ash and Dylan (who, btw, was full on staring at me) I practically ran from the class.

Tears were forming in my eyes as I ran from the building. I was trying to hid my face to make sure that no body could see I was crying when I smashed into something, well some one. I looked up and as soon as I saw it was Jacob I wrapped my arms him and practically cried into his shoulder.

“Shhhhhh it’s ok, shhhhhh, please don’t cry,” Jake said soothingly into my ear as he picked me up and carried me over to a room in the back of the Multi – purpose centre. Not even noticing that Jake was with one of his friends until he cleared his throat. I turned to look at him while snuggling into Jake.

“Hi, my name is Josh, I am a Sophomore and Jake’s roommate, you must be the Ellie that Jake has no shut up about since he came home yesterday,” Josh said babaling away. I giggled at that and my, was he gay!!!!!!! He has very dark brown eyes with tanned skin. Hair styled to the max and the most fashionable clothing I have ever seen on a guy. He like everyother guy in the school was very attractive and toned.

At Josh’s comment Jake glared at him for a second before looking back at me with concern. I looked at Jake and smiled. He pulled up an eyebrow with a confused expression on his face.

“Now are you going to tell me why you came running up to me crying,” he said softly. My face fell and I looked away. Jake put a hand under my chin and made me look at him, “please,” he said looking right into my eyes.

“Fine, but it is a long story,” I said with a sigh and explained to him and Josh the whole story about Tyla and I. By the end Josh had the expression of pure hate on his face.

“I have always thought she was a bit of a, excuse my French, bitch!!!!!!!” Josh exclaimed. He was started rambling on and on about how fake she is…….. yep he is definitely gay. Jake was very quiet but a look of anger on his face. He looked into his eyes but he looked away. I moved so I could hug him. It took a moment but he finally responded and hugged me back. We sat like that for a moment and then the bell went. I pulled away and looked at Jake his face was absolutely clear of any emotion. That is not good.

“We need to go to class before we are late,” he said while grabbing my hand and Josh’s and pulling us out of the room.
