The English Boy

Chapter 12

This would be the first time I'm taking the limo on the way to Grace Randolph. I honestly hate taking the bus. Besides, Ben told me to call him everytime I need a ride. I need a ride to school because I don't like the bus.

Anyways, our 3-day vacation is over. We should all be back at Grace Randolph on or before 8:00 am. Well, as long as we don't miss first period. I left as early as possible, even if I have my own ride...well, just to be sure that I'm not late because I'm through being late!

I arrived there just on time. I was still in the limo, fixing my stuff

"You've got everything you need?" Ben asked

"I'm checking" I said

Later on, somebody opened my door. Usually, it's Headmaster Lovett who does these things but this time, it wasn't him...

"Welcome to Grace Randolph Boarding School, Ms. McCarthy!!! I am Isaiah Lovett, the headmaster's grandson" Isaiah said when he opened the door of the limo

I scoffed

"Shut up" I said, getting out of the limo. Ben started bringing my bags out but then Isaiah took them from him

"I'll handle these, Ben!!! See you next week!!!" Isaiah said. Ben turned to me and I shrugged. He went inside the limo and drove away. After seeing the limo disappear, I turned back to Isaiah, who was carrying my bags

"all of a sudden, you're being such a gentlemen?" I said

"I've always been, haven't I?" he said

"So, where's Headmaster?"

"Sorting some papers out"

"Hey" Luke was running towards us. He just came out from the dorms, I could tell.

"Hey Joe!" he hugged me, and I tried to break free.

"You two look so adorable!!!" Isaiah said

"So, have you thought it over?" Luke asked me

"Thought what?" I said

"The dance! Joe, just say yes!!!" Isaiah said

"What?" I said

"sorry, not helping" he said

"No!"

"You already said yes that time we were in the cemetery" he said

"Only to get rid of you!"

"Ohh, Lucas! I guess Joe's not one of those easy-to-get chicks!" Isaiah said, and Luke hit his shoulder

"I'm totally not!"

"Johanna Ricci McCarthy?" he came closer to me

"Lucas Taylor?" I said

I looked into his eyes. Those attractive green eyes of his. He's very hard to resist, but-

"Give me one good reason why I couldn't ask you out" he asked

I walked closer to him

"Because I'm a dyke" I whispered to his right ear. He opened his eyes and he seemed pretty surprised.

"Dude, I'm joking" I said

"Then, wha-"

"I'm not interested!" I finally blurted it out "I just- Just in case you're wondering, I'm not only hard-to-get! I'm not relationship material"

"Okay, I'm gonna go-" Isaiah placed my bags down and ran back to the dorms.

"Plus, you're the prefect! That makes you an officer for school events, for God's sake! And you just ask some other people to do your responsibilities for you just so you could ask me out?! Are you insane?! Do you think that turned me on, because I'm sure as hell it turned me off! And if something goes wrong, all the blame would go to me, won't it?! Dude, it's completely unfair! Not only for the guy you asked to take over for you, but also for me!"
