Chapter 3
"Wait Zoey," I saw here walking into the Maths class, we have most of period together. She turned around and looked at me.
"What?" She definitely looked angry.
"I will do whatever you say." I said as I stood next to her.
"Really! What about your parents?" She said, I walked in and sat on my seat.
"My dad will be going to his brother in London so he won't be here and my mom. I will somehow lie to her after all you only told me, my parents won't know until I tell them." I said.
"Yay, then you can come to my house tonight." I opened my mouth to say something but I immediately closed it.
"Not until dad goes! But he told me I can stay here till sunset. Plus Mrs Lisa told me to meet her in the music room after school." I said.
"Great, after you dad goes you can come to my home." She said, I nodded.
I just hope my parents won't know about this......
"Enough with the talking you two," I was pulled out of my thoughts when a familiar person ordered. I looked around to see the class completely silent, I looked up to see Mr D'amico.
I will be back to take you away from this pain, but next time I don't want you to wear any of these chains.
I shook my head, something was familiar between these two voices, it must be my imagination.
"Mrs Mary died yesterday in a car accident, horrible isn't it. I don't care, I am your new maths teacher. You can call me Mr D'amico or anything you wish expect for my first name which is Lucas. Anyways if you are thinking I am going to ask your names and hobbies like a typical new teacher I won't. So get your books out and get to work because believe, this year won't be so easy." He said, I looked at everyone's shocked expression. Everyone was staring at him, I mean Mrs Mary died and he is acting like nothing happened.
"I know I am to attractive, but that doesn't means you keep staring at me and for you information I have three kids back home so in this case if you like me you are a pedophile." My jaw drops on the table, he didn't just said that.
"Get your books out," He ordered, I twitched my eyes couple time before removing my maths book. Everyone starting doing the same.
"He such a piece of over obsessed s**t," The girl behind me whispered to someone, I couldn't even hear it properly.
"Heard that, get up and leave the class and come back when this piece of over obsessed s**t leaves." He looked angry, the girl immediately walked out. I creased my eyebrows and looked at Zoey, she shrugged with the same expression on my face.
"Open your book to page number 249 and complete the entire page." He said before sitting on the chair, I opened my book to page 249. It was Algebraic manipulation, we had learned this long ago but this was way harder than year 9 worksheets. The sums were quite long and confusing. How are we supposed to do it. I looked around to everyone with the same expression.
"We didn't do this with Mrs Mary" Some boy in the end exclaimed.
"So?" Mr D'amico questioned him.
"How are we supposed to do it." He said.
"Go learn because everyone in grade 11 did this, not my fault if your dead teacher didn't teach you anything." He completely ignored the fact that we can't do it until someone teaches us.
"You are a teacher, you are suppose to teach us how to do this." The guy exclamied, everyone started whispering.
"Oh really, I didn't knew that. Sorry to burst your bubble but students are supposed to learn and study in school rather then spending their school time in the janitors closet sucking some bimbos face." He folded his arms around his chest and sat on the table. Half of the girls burst out laughing, rest looked at him with shook. The guy who apparently started this narrowed his eyes on the table.
"Stop laughing before you are the one getting the laughs next." Everyone immediately stopped laughing.
"Good, get back to your work because I am not going to teach you at all. I want the entire page to be done in your book by 10 or else you are going to stay the rest of the day here finishing the following 5 pages." He explained before sitting on the table. I looked down to see everything as a puzzle.
"Do you know any of this," Zoey whispered to me.
"No!" I said, I may be a nerd but this was to hard.
"Any problem," I literally jumped of my seat when he stood in front of me.
"Yes, she can't understand anything." Zoey pointed at me, I never said that. I could somehow solve it, know he will scold and embarrass me infront of the class.
My heart skipped a beat when he kneeled down to my table, I kept my eyes glued on the book.
"What don't you understand?" He asked me.
"Everything," I whispered, by now I felt everyone staring at me. His hands touched my my hand, he pulled the pencil and started explaining on the paper.
◼◼◼
I understand most of it, but I couldn't keep my eyes off the tattoo he had on his hand. It was a symbol, a skull in a triangle below that there were black flames.
Wonder what that means.......
"Understood?" I was pulled out of my thoughts when he spoke up, I nodded.
"Good, do this." He pointed at another sum, I puller the pencil out and started doing it. The whole time he was staring at me, I finally did it.
"Done," I whispered and looked at his eyes through my glasses. I couldn't move my vision away from his brown eyes which slightly turned red.
"Interesting!" He exclaimed before looking away, he looked down my chest before going back to his table. I looked around to see everyone staring at me, I narrowed my eyes and looked down on the book.
I was shocked.......
I drew the tattoo on his hand......
But it didn't have any flames.......
