Encounter

Chapter 5-Nice to meet Blue

"Nice to meet me??" Elsie was out of clue by that greeting. "How come he knew her name! And who was he?" The same questions went around in her mind almost all the whole time.

But she was glad she didn't have a chance to greet him back.The next class bell rang right after his first speech.Elsie just ran straight to her class as soon as she heard the ball without even talking back to Drake.

Drake felt lost...Elsie shouldn't be that so shy... all he had done was a single greeting though it was planned ahead..

He had already known from the chief that his investigation was somehow connected to Elsie Blue.So he had to get closer to her if he wanted to find out more about the matter as well as Elsie Blue,herself!

Though his first attempt was a failure,the goddess of luck seemed to favour him. He saw her in his History class.

That girl,Elsie Blue,in her blue jeans and white feminine T-shirt, and with her long black hair falling perfectly on her back, looked so beautiful to Drake. He wondered what connections she might have with those beings, with that kind of attractive appearance.

The History class turned out to be boring for Drake while Elsie showed great interest in it.Drake just looked around the class,rolling his eyes from here to there,with a pen held in his fingers..he had no idea what the teacher was talking till then... when the teacher asked him a question out of blue.

"Drake Fletcher!" the teacher with his bald forehead,wrinkles on it,as well as on the sides of his face,called out his name.He stared at Drake through his thick glasses.

Drake felt a sudden terror.Almost all the eyes in the class were at him except a pair,Elsie's lustrous ones. He felt really awkward to be in that class.Those seconds seemed longer for him than normal.

"Where have my lesson got to?" asked his teacher."And where were you?"

Drake felt total shame since he was absolutely clueless... his mind wasn't in the class from the start..

"uh...." He just could said 'World war II??'

The whole class giggled at his answer.His whole face started to turn red.

But when he saw that lustrous pair of eyes looking at him,he felt thankful to the history teacher for letting him get Elsie's attention.

He saw a smile on her face.....
