The day went by extremely slowly. I sat in History class alone. Nobody interfered with me at all and I sat at the back of the class, moping about. I was basically thinking of Ace, and what he'd be doing right then.
Holly didn't bother me at all. She hung out with Jessica Bren, the girl who went home with a different guy everyday and flirted with every single man in her sight. Oh, and the person who rescued Ace and I from the storeroom.
All I wanted badly was for the end of school bell to ring and I could then go and see Ace.
"Class, we have a new student today," the teacher announced, breaking me from my thoughts. I looked up from burying my head in my hands and saw a tall teenage guy. His hair was tidy and messy at the same time and he had a soft smile on his face. Blonde curls of his fringe fell over his face and he had both his hands tucked neatly inside his Jean pockets.
He scanned the classroom and my eyes locked with his for a moment, and just as fast as we made eye contact, he looked away.
"Would you like to introduce yourself?"
The guy nodded and cleared his throat, staring at the class, quite casually. Holly had stopped giggling with Jessica and she stared at him, basically drooling. He wasn't very good looking like Ace, but I have to admit, he was a little cute.
"My name is Reece Stone. I'm from New York," he said, licking his lips after. "I know I'm really lame but thanks for listening."
That was short.
The teacher smiled and nodded to him, gesturing her hand out to pick a seat in the class. I silently prayed that he wouldn't come to the back of the classroom and pick to sit next to me. And I wished I hadn't said that because he did walk to the back of the classroom and sit right next to me-- I figured he took a liking towards me.
"Hi." I smiled at him once he'd sat down. "My name's Victoria Leigh. Nice to meet you, Reece."
"I don't care," he muttered, causing me to frown with confusion. Take back what I just said. This guy had problems.
"Now class, please take out your homework from last week," the teacher said, walking around the classroom with her hands behind her back, strictly. Everybody took out their homework and I froze. I didn't do my bloody homework!
Oh my god. With all the drama going on, it just slipped my mind.
"Victoria? Where's your homework?" the teacher asked me, widening her eyes in disbelief.
The class suddenly turned quiet and everyone stared at me, not believing that I hadn't done my homework. If it were someone else, they would've been like 'so?' but it was me and they were probably thinking, 'holy shit Victoria forgot her homework!'
Reece smirked at me from beside me and I glared at him. The teacher shook her head at me. "Victoria, I thought better of you. What happened?"
I sat there next to Reece in silence.
"But seeing as this is your very first time you've forgotten your homework, Victoria, I'll not be giving you detention. Don't do it again, I have high expectations for you."
The class was shocked.
"What the heck miss?"
"What?!"
"That's so not fair."
"Shit, she's lucky."
"Silence!" the teacher screamed. She gave one last look of disapproval at me and walked off the the front of the classroom. "Everybody turn to page 636 of your text book please."
