Running Away From Mr. Stalker - COMPLETED #Wattys2015

Chapter 1

"Stop following me!" I hissed.

I've had enough of him. He's been following around me ever since the first day of freshman year.

This guy has been creeping the shit out of me since I noticed him almost everywhere I went.

One time, I went to the bathroom alone, he waited for me outside the cubicles! I mean, who does that?! And there was this time when I was at the grocery store, he bought at every item I bought . Weird, right? And then there was this other time when I went out for a run, he was behind me, running too.

At first, I thought it was just a coincidence, but when I noticed that he has been following my every move, I knew it wasn't a coincidence anymore.

This time, I've had enough.

"Stop following me, you creepy stalker!" I screamed, which made all eyes on us. I didn't care. I couldn't care if people were looking at me at a time like this.

"Chris." he said with a smirk in his face.

"What?" I asked, raising my left eyebrow, still furious.

"My name's Chris. And your name's Hailey. Hailey Green. You're nineteen years old. Turning twenty nine weeks from now. You live at Fig Avenue. You like to buy anything that has chocolate in it. You hate peanut butter. You like to read books, mostly romance types of novels. You like to go out for a run to cool your mind. You..."

Do you see what I mean now?

"Stop!" I interfered, obviously turning red. "How are you so sure of yourself, huh?" I asked him, pointing my finger at his chest.

He was right. Everything he said to me was right.

He stared at me for a while. I didn't like anyone staring at me.

"You don't like anyone to stare at you," he said, still looking at me with a smirk on his face. Now I'm feeling even more annoyed.

The warning bell then rang which meant that we have 5 minutes to get to class or we'll be late.

"Look, Chris, if you don't stop stalking me, I'm calling the cops. So if you don't mind, I'm late for class." I said, trying to calm down my nerves and brushed pass him.

"Biology lab is not that way, but that way." he said.

"Hurry. You've got uhh- three minutes and forty seconds left or you'll be late. You know what's going to happen if you're late for Mr.Hayes's class."

Why is he right all the time?!

I turned around to see him pointing to the right direction of where the Biology lab is. I didn't want to argue because he was right and if we argue now, that will really waste a lot of my time. Again.

I turned around and walked pass him again. He had a grin on his face. Great. He even knows my schedule too. Stalker.

Biology was the usual. Boring. Mr.Hayes handed out our quiz papers. "Once again, Ms.Hailey Green scored the highest, A plus."

Mr. Hayes handed out my paper with a smirk. A plus, huh.

I still couldn't get over the incident this morning. Chris.

What? Why am I even thinking about that weird stalker. Ew.

"Hey, you okay?" I turned around to see Mace looking at me with a weird look on his face. "Yeah, why?" I answered him.

"I've been asking you if you're free Friday night. You're not answering me." Mace said, looking disappointed.
