Partners?

Chapter 2

The next morning I wake up to the ringing of my phone. I look at the clock to see it's 5:30 in the morning. I could've slept for at least thirty minutes. Whoever is interrupting my sleep better have a good reason I finally and my phone to my best friend Ava shouting in my ear.

"What did you do Amelia! Hitting him in the face really was the point in that to piss him off because mission accomplished I'm pretty sure he had smoke coming out of his ears when you left. Do you even know what he'll do to you." the whole time screaming she may have broken my eardrum. I have no clue how she didn't wake up her whole neighborhood.

"Number one why did you wake me at five in the freaking morning if you want to yell at me you're only allowed to after seven. Number two we both know he deserved it, I mean he's been messing with me since we were eight and frankly I'm tired of it. Finally, never call me before my alarm goes off ever again or I will never talk to you again." We both knew the last one wasn't true because we have been here for each other since we met when we were four. She started laughing at the other end of the phone.

"Sure you will now you need to get dressed and we can continue this conversation later and make sure you're ready to see Liam." I could hear the smile behind her voice. She has always had a thing for him. He either didn't pick up on it or doesn't need anything from him. That's the only reason he ever tries anything with a girl that has a thing for him. People always say that he is such a good guy and that others should try to act like him but why would anyone want to do that?

I get to school and it seems like everyone's eyes are on me. I'm a cheerleader so I'm used to attention but never this much. The whole school has always been interested in the cheer squad but we haven't played a game for two weeks, so I'm guessing it has something to do with Liam. walking to my looker was a strange walk everyone either whispered like I couldn't hear or just stared at me with wide eyes. They are not used to anyone standing up or even said no to him. He always got whatever he wanted from anyone. This is how it's going to be every time I stand up to him, getting stared at like I'm some weird creature.

As I walked into Science everyone turned towards me again why today when I already half way to deal with Liam. i'm going to have to start doing labs by myself as i don't think he will be of any help. The last time we were lab partners he missed up the measures and it turned our hands blue for three days. Everyone staring at me is going to help either of these situations. He walks into class and looks around and everyone knows who he is looking for, even me. When he sees me he puts on his smirk and comes walking toward me.

"Hey, doll-face, did you have a nice dream about me last night? Let me guess I was shirtless on a beach because that sounds like a great dream." It seemed like everyone in the room was interested in his one statement and was trying to memorize the whole conversation to tell everyone later.

"You're right I had a great dream you got hit by a bus and I got a new partner for this project. It still got better because then we found out you were in a coma and didn't wake up until after we graduated." Everyone looked at me with wide eyes. I mean I did just say I dreamed their star player was in a coma. For a minute he looked at me with a blank face like he was trying to figure something out.

"So, you admit you were dreaming of me."

"I'll admit that I dreamed of you when my dream comes true." Just then the bell rings and Mrs. Summers walks in with a big smile on her face.

"Okay everyone today I will give you the experiment and you will gather the materials and have the experiment done by the end of class . Remember the cooperation between you and your partner with being ten percent of the grade."

Great, I'm going to at least act like I'm working with him in class. Maybe he will try to help with this. I mean it's his grade too and these projects are going to be worth enough if we don't get a good grade we would have to sit out of games. will that be enough motivation for him though I know it is for me especially if I want to stay captain next year .

We got an experiment which was going to be one of the easier ones for the semester. Turning towards him to ask a question he's flirting with a blonde that looks like a barbie doll. I actually think she may be made of plastic. I wonder who did it though my mother is wanting some work done. I wonder if that is rude to ask it most likely is so instead I decide I'll take the I start the project not wanting to mess with him or even complain. That was until the  barbie dolls partner needed her help. Once she went back to her table he started grabbing everything and moving it around to irritate me.

It worked. I was going to say something but then the bell finally rang. I left, being happy I only had four more hours until cheer and then I got to go home. I get an entire weekend where I do not have to hear the name, Liam Daniels. Just a weekend with me and Criminal Minds where I can focus on who the serial killer is and fall in love with Derek Morgan and Spencer Reid.
