CHAPTER 2

ETHAN's POV

        It's been a week since the day Ashton started attending my History class and just like the first day he's still seems restless but less. It takes every self control I have just to stop myself from standing up and yelling the hell out of him since him being all giddy abd restless makes me feel restless just the same. I don't like that.

"Is everything alright Ethan?" my Mom said staring at me concern painted on her face.

"Yeah. Just some matters at school." I said, then continued eating.

"Oh, I almost forgot. Your brother Chad told me that they'll have a break in college after 3 months. so he'll come back here." 

"Really? That's great!"

"You better not tell your brother that I told you that because he told me to keep it a secret."

"Thanks Mom." I said excitedly.

"You're welcome baby boy, but you better hurry or Kris will end up waiting for you."

"Yeah. Bye Mom, be careful."

"You too, be safe. And take it easy on the road." After bidding our goodbyes I got out of the house and got in the car. Yeah I do have a car but not because we're really rich but we can be classified as above the average in social status.

        My dad works on a big company as the secretarial head or something like that, my mother on the other hand has her own veterinary clinic, my older brother Chad is attending college and works part time as a model for some fashion magazine.

         Chad actually rarely comes back home, for the past 3 years that he's been in college he only came back at least twice a year and never stayed more than 3 days and that's more because of that work of his.

        When Kris and I are younger my brother Chad used to play with us; video games, 2 vs 1 basketball, card games, and even wrestling. I could say he's the best brother ever, but he can be overly protective most of the time. And trust me he can be pretty overboard a lot of times.

        By the time I arrived at school I was too ecstatic about my brother coming that I practically latch myself on Kris while telling him about my brother's return even though it's still far away. He on the other hand only chuckled at maybe my childish excitement while patting my head and congratulating me. Sometimes I feel like he's treating me like a child, I don't like it but I do think it's better than him telling me that I look like a girl.

        Half a day passed by almost like in a blink of an eye and by the time lunch break came that's when I realized that I wasn't able to be bothered by Ashton's weirdness when we had the same class.

"I guess the news about Chad set you completely on the mood for the whole day. And you're not even complaining about Lockwood like you always do."

"Who cares. I'm happy and you on the other hand don't need to hear my 'endless' complain like usual. Everything's perfect."

"Then I guess I have to be extra thankful for today."

"At least I'm not the one who cluelessly forgot my bag." and that's when he finally realized that he forgot to bring his bag with him. Good thing it's lunch and no one will be using the room for and hour.

"Shit!" and he practically run back to our previous classroom while he left me in the middle of the hall laughing my lungs out.

I continued to walk and made my way to my locker stuffingnmy unneeded book and notebooks inside and taking the book for my next class after lunch. Then made my way to the cafeteria sure that he'll go straight here if he didn't saw me at where we parted.

I sat down at the table we always sit on for lunch and waited for him.

He was gone for about a minute or two when someone suddenly tappeded my shoulder, "Hey" I stared up at the person who tapped me "Still remember me?" I slowly narrowed my eyes before they ended up wide open as I look at her.

"You're the girl last Monday, the one asking for directions. Right?"

"Okay... You could've put it in a much nicer way like "You're that pretty girl.." or "You're the cute girl last monday" something like that." she joked, with a big grin on her face "Oh well that's fine I guess... It's not like you know my name anyway."

"My bad." I said chuckling a bit.

"Nope it's totally fine." she said brushing it off. "Well guess what, I'm going to attend this school starting today." she said her excitement radiating off her.

"So that's the reason you're here. Congratulations I guess?"

"Well thank you. So what year are you, and your age?"

"Senior year. 17"

"Great! We're on the same year but we're not the same age though I'm turning nineteen by November. I just hope we have the same class schedule."

"Sure, would be looking forward to it."

"So what's your name?"

"Ethan, Ethan Michaels. You?"

"Nice to meet you Ethan. I'm Tricia" she said extending her hand to me which I gladdly took and shaked.

"Tricia!!" A voice called from behind the same time the girl beside me introduced herself in the same name. When she looked behind her and I did the same, who I saw is Ashton Lockwood approaching us.

"Oops totally forgot about you."

"Nice and here I am patiently giving you a tour. Why did I even offer you help when you don't actually really give a crap about stuffs like this. Who am I fooling."

"Oh come on stop sulking. It wasn't intentional I just saw this cutie here-the one I told you who helped me find my way Monday morning when you're not picking up- I just can't help but immediately get to him."

"Thanks for the complement I guess though I prefer being called manly than cute 'coz it's not really that flattering for me." I said butting on their I don't know what kind of quarrel they are having.

"Manly? An absolute NO 'coz you are definitely what the word CUTE means"

"That's not nice. Never argue when he says he's manly. 'Cause that's what he believes." Out of no where Kris appeared.

"Are you on my side? or are you being sarcastic?" I said glaring at Kris who immediately wore an I-don't-know-what-you're-talking-about face.

"Of course not."

"Anyways, I'm Tricia...." she said shaking hands with Kris "And this is Ashton......" Ashton shook hands with Kris and then extending his hands to me.

"........my younger Brother" she introduced my gaze immediately travelling to him meeting back his own gaze at me and at that moment I don't know if it's because of shock but i'm definitely sure that my heart almost stopped.
