Chapter Five
I woke up in the middle of the night with a light headache and an angry stomach,I check my bag pack looking for any left over snack I might have kept, and thank God I found a small pack of cookies,
I remember my today's work tip hoping I didn't throw it while running, thinking about what happened made my heart chunks.
There are evil spirits here for sure,what am I even expecting from an abandoned town,
I brought out my fee from my jean pocket and count it with a smile,it's enough to replace the ones I've spend on school and food earlier,
I keep the ones for my food In my bag and the ones for my savings in my wallet under the pale mattress,
I've been saving for a while now cause and planning on leaving these two idiots as soon as am 18 since I'll be independent it's a lot but not enough yet,
Miranda Might've promised yo let me go,but am sure she kung be giving me a penny,
I stand by the window sill eating my cookie, starring at the forest.
Just as am about to leave.... something bright caught my attention,
I narrow my eyes looking deeper in to the woods...... I almost scream when I saw two pairs of Golden and Brown eyes starring towards my room from a far.
The most scariest thing is that they are directly starring at me.
Lightning sparks lightly and ......wtf
I saw two huge wolves almost the size of a mama bear.
What are they doing here?...are the lost or something?
And just as if frightened....the both pounce and ran off into the forest.
Okey......my life here is becoming weird
*****
I spend my first class with DOE and we talk about ourselves.....more like she talk about herself....cause I don't have any sweet memory to share.
My second class is with the twins...and of course..just like last time,they are in the same position.
I choose a side beside HAZE since Mr ACE couldn't keep his hands to himself,
The twins share a knowing look and smirk victoriously.
"Our today's topic is Logarithm...and I am expecting everyone of you to bring out a fore figure table....I won't be tolerating any of your excuses, you kids are becoming more lazier by the day".
Mr Zack (the math teacher) said rudely scrolling through his tab.
The good thing about Mr Zack is he start teaching immediately he enters the class,
Every student brought out their own except me and of course ACE and HAZE, these two do not even have a note book with them
Oh God...what do I do???
Mr Zack starts walking around explaining the topic.
He walk pass HAZE as if he's invisible and stood behind me,he cleared his throat looking down at me irritated.
"Don't you have it?" He inquired
"Y...yes sir"I answered looking down
Tears building up in my eyes ...why the f**k am I about to cry, Maybe cause you hate attention.
I argue with my subconscious like a lunatic
Mr Zack glance at the twins and look back at me.
"Go grab one in the library."
He said lowly as if he was yelled at...strange.
"Yes... thank you sir"
I said getting off My seat,
"And remember to buy yours...I won't be too kind next time"
He mumbled walking away without sparring ACE even a glance.
"Yes sir"
I said walking out,
Nope..am not wasting my money on anything sir,I thought heading towards the big sign the said SCHOOL LIBRARY.
"Hey" I heard lily said as i'm looking through the book shelf,
"Sup girl,"
"What are you doing here?"
I whispered lowly since the librarian glared at us a while ago
"Escaped a boring class"
She said casually
"Ohh...fore figure table"
I said grabbing it,
"Mr Zack is waiting for me....bye"
I wen to the gloomy woman and hand the book,she said nothing but grumpily sign it and wrote my name in a notepad.
I ran back to class
••
••
••
••
WTF..
I stood staring at a guy with blazing red hair on my seat
And ACE move aside leaving a single seat between HAZE and him
I roll my eyes annoyed before sitting,
"This will be the last one I'll solve...and you guys must attend to my class work today"
Mr Zack said solving the last one.
Good...I lost two examples...I have to focus on this one
"Aurora... right??"
I heard HAZE's unmistakable deep husky voice
"HAZE right??"
I said trying hard to focus...cause their collagen scent is intoxicating.
"Woah..bro...she know your name"
ACE tease with a smirk
"Why won't I know his name...you two are like.. popular"
I scoff
"Huhh...she's complimenting us...."
ACE said again dramatically holding his chest.
"I think she like us already"
HAZE said biting his lower lip sexily,
Focus Aurora....Focus
I chant looking at Mr Zack cause i'm no longer understanding.
"Huhhhh"
I gasp as ACE run his finger down my expose neck...why didn't I just wear the Tuttle neck shirt.
Focus...focus....focus
I chant in my mind trying to understand what Mr Zack is saying.
Both ACE and HAZE move there seats close to mind....the seat made a loud disturbing noise... causing everyone to look back at us
Even Mr Zack stop and look at the two of them... Then me...the look of clear frustration and annoyance on his face....he close his eyes taking a deep breath.
"Attention" he said resuming his class
"Better get use to this kitten"
HAZE whispered in my ear playing with the collar of my long sleeve brown shirt
"You will soon be the envy of every shitty girl in this school.....and they will have nothing to say or do about it."
ACE said twirling a strand of my hair with his fingers.
"Beside...brown look good on you Barbie" he added with a cute wink...pulling my cheek,
I slap his hands off my face and he pout moving away from me with puppy eyes
Awwn,he look just like a cute little puppy,
HAZE chuckles fill my ear just like a sweet Melody.
"Good one Kitten" HAZE muttered gently patting my head like a cat,
I wanted to slap his hand off too....but hell no... I gathered the courage to slap ACE's hand cause he looks friendly...I won't dare try that with HAZE,the guy have a weird dark aura around him, not to mention his spicy male perfume,
While ACE has a peaceful aura that makes me want to sleep in his arms, and he smell like vanilla and strawberry...yum.
"Start..now" Mr Zack's voice shot me out of my thoughts.
Wait.....is he done already??...oh Gosh...I didn't even understand a single thing about this damn topic ...oh God please help me.
It's only one question but am sure it's the hardest of all.
ACE snatch away my note book and tear a paper from it then snatch my pen...he wrote something on the paper then hand over my book and pen back....wow,
And there I foolishly thought he's solving it for me just like in some romantic kdrama.
Okey Aurora....use your common sense
I star solving the question using my logic.
"Goodness kitten...what are you doing??"
"my classwork" I answered HAZE without looking up.
"You are definitely getting a big zero" ACE said with a silent chuckle,
I ignore the fact that I like the sound of it and focus on my work.
I look up only to see Mr Zack checking on every student's work, and I don't think anyone answered it right.
Cause he rudely speaks to the ladies and give the guys a very loud slap on their backs...well..I'll soon be insulted.
I giggled as I watch Mr Zack struggling to slap the Blonde I saw with the red haired guy yesterday.
The guy keeps blocking and moving away like a kid trying to escape a whip,...Mr Zack forcefully press his head down on his desk and give him two dirty slaps on his back, and a knock on the head,the girls laughed while Mr Zack mumbled something annoyed and move forward.
HAZE grab my book and tear away my class work page.
"Hey what the hell are...."I shut my mouth when he starts solving the question in my book without even calculating...and what the fuck.... In less than a minute..he's done...he give my book back and I quickly scan i,
.he's handwriting is...gosh..too perfect....are his fingers even normal???
"Um um" Mr Zack cleared his throat at HAZE who look up at him with a 'WHAT'S WRONG' look, Mr Zack shake his head and move to me taking my note on the desk.
He look up at the class
"Class...say shame on you all" he said strictly.
"Shame on us all" they chorus looking back at us.
" The new student is the only one who solve this correctly, am ashamed to call you my students"he said Looking through my work and for ones...he had a small smile on his face.
"Keep it up"he said keeping the book on my desk
Hold on...am I even supposed to be happy about it, well technically I wasn't the one who solve it anyway.
"What is this ACE"
I heard Mr Zack's gritty voice...I turn to see him looking at ACE'S piece of paper.
"The topic is Logarithm not the multiplication table" he said sounding annoyed.
He exhale deeply and kept the paper walking away.
I look down at the paper..and OH MY GOD.. ACE wrote the whole multiplication table like a nursery student....I look up at him and he wink sexily...did I just say sexily...urgg Aurora!!!!
"Since you knew the answer...why didn't you solve yours???"
I ask HAZE and he smirk dangerously, shouldering me like his lover...
"Barbie,we promise to make you our queen"
ACE said with a mischievous smile slowly rubbing my abdomen with his palm
I visibly tense.. shocked as his action causing electric like feeling in me.
He slide his finger down my lower abdomen almost into my jean and I quickly slap his hand off.
He quickly moved back with a pout and this time a look of pain on his face.
Oh God...did I mistakenly hurt him....these puppy eyes again...dear God..my heart also hurt now,
I should apologize.
