The voice of Mr.Morris pulled me out from my train of thoughts .

It was currently the Mythology period where Mr. Morris was discussing about Old Egyptian beliefs.

I love Mr.Morris's classes. I love to attend his lectures,but today my mind kept going back to the " small incident" ...

**Flashback**

"Are you ok ? " Corbin asked Clare .
"Um yea-yeah " Clare said.
I turned to Xavier.
" Um thn-"

Ring Ring Ring

The bell .

I dont want to go ...

Before I could say something Clare took my wrist and lead us out of the cafeteria.
"Clare wait .what's wrong " I asked her while she kept dragging me by my hand.
" Hey you should have atleast thanked them" I said .
She finally turned facing me.
What wrong with her. She been behaving weirdly all day.
She attempting to say something but all she did was sighed.
"Are you alright?. You are being too rude today"
What the fuck is wrong with her ?
"I am just worked up I am sorry"she said "guess your right we should thank them". She turned towards the corridor the hurd of students making their way to their respective classes.
" We should go. I'll meet you after school." She said and hurried towards her class disappearing in the crowd of students.

"Ok class. So the Anu-" he turned towards the door. I hastily looked up at the door.
There he stood.
Xavier
His tall dark frame leaning back on the door . His eyes searching among the sea of students in the class until it landed ...on me .
" Ohh Yess ! U must be the new kid ." Mr Morris said with a smile on his face. While Xavier's stare never leaving mine. Suddenly a weird feeling erupted with in me. As if a pull towards him. All I could focus was his eyes ... Never leaving mine. Butterflies dancing in my stomach .oh god it's not good . What the heck is happening ?

"Now class ". It was untill then I snapped out of my gaze and realised Xavier was sitting in his chair beside me. " For this terms assignment u have to do a partner project with who ever u want or who ever is sitting beside you. It contains 50 percent marks of your terms soo buckle up and get started".

Shoot.

Well apprently being the 'not so social person' as I am I don't have anyone else in my class . I doubt if they even now I exsist...wich leaves the only option aka the person sitting beside me .
As soon as Mr Morris took his seat, Students begin to shuffle around with the sound of screeching chairs.
I turned to the person sitting beside me slowly and realised the whole time his eyes had been fixed on me .
" So ..um do you want to do the project with me." I asked hastly. Why was I nervous ! He's just a boy!. A very handsome and attractive guy. What the hell ! Eve!.
"We have no choice do we ?" He smirks at me clearly noticing my nervousness.
Jerk.
" So where to start ?" I asked glancing up at him from the book .
" How about we take old myths of Egypt ."
" I think it's a good idea . But we need to be more specific about legendary myths ". I said.
" Then let's take the after life. Simple."
"But it's wayy more common ."
"Not the 'ka of life " He said smirking . I narrow my eyes frowning at him.How does he know about " ka". Unless you are like deep deep into Egyptian history you won't know the concept at all

It's is one the facet of ancient Egyptian belief that prompted vampiric consideration was the ka, an astral companion to each living person. The ka was a symbol of the life powers given to each man from the gods; it is the source of these powers. The ka was said to be a spiritual double that was born with every man and lived on after he died, but only if it had a place to live. The ka lived within the body of the individual and therefore needed that body after death. This is the reason why the Egyptians mummified their dead, because if the body decomposed, their spiritual double, their ka, would die and the deceased would lose their chance for eternal life. You see, the belief was that the ka guided a person while they were alive, but once they died the ka would lead the soul (the ba or khu) into eternity.
"How do you know about it" I asked a bit amused.
" Your not the only one who knows his subjects well."still with that stupid smirk .
"I am impressed I have to say" returning it with a smile. Just then something clicked with in him. A sudden flash of emotion in his eyes but it was long gone before I could catch it.

He cleared his throat.

Ringg ring

"Ok class so submit your projects by the end of next week. Now shuu" said Mr Morris and dismissed the class. I was busy packing my things up, seeing everyone hurrying out as Xavier stood up from his seat.I turned around and he was there just a few inches away . He was waiting for me to say something I guess.

"So.. I'll see you around i mean for the projects ovio not that I'll see you around kinda thing . I mean mr Morris told us we had to finish it by next week so just for thing I mean I'll-"

" Shhh " Xavier's said with his sleak finger on my lips .
I think my heart just skipped.
It is then I got a closer look at his features. My eyes roaming all over his facial features. His sharp cut jaws then my eyes landed on those rosy lips which his tounge slightly brushed inside. Then my eyes landed on them- his eyes .
Captivated by them and in the mist of all they changed ! Holy freaking fudgenuggetts his eyes colour changed ?
" I'll see you around " he said snapping me out of my stupid gazing or rather eyeing his sexyness . Wait. Did I just say that ? . Oh no I am sounding like those hormonal freaking girls . No no no .
" You all right ?" He asked smirking .
What is with his stupid smirk . Sexy maybe ?
Control. Eve ! Control !
"Yeah yeah- sure " I smiled
" Definately " he said still smirking and stormed out if the class room while I stood there with my racing heart and butterflies in the stomach.
"Definitely "
And I let go a breath I didn't even know I was holding .
What is happening to me ?
