Chapter Two I really wish chemistry was not the first class. It was the only class that I shared with Brock and I was not excited, particularly on this day. To be in this class after what happened, did happen. The way that he just absolutely believed Rebecca when she told him that I had stolen some coffee from the royals was absolutely absurd to me and very hurtful, especially. He used to believe me. When we were younger, he used to vouch for me. But now I am afraid that it was all over and that there was no going back. Usually I try not to look at him, but today I fear it will be particularly hard. His stares are always so intense and I really wish I knew what changed in the past months, but I really do not. He has just been extra mean to me and it seems it will only continue to get worse. After what feels like forever, this long class is nearing its end and I am finally feeling relieved because during the second period, I can finally sort my situation out. I will only have one more period before lunch when my deadline is. I feel ridiculous being so terrified of what might happen if I do not get that jacket cleaned when I am not responsible for what happened in the first place. . When lunch time finally arrives, when I'm supposed to return the jacket, I will be deep trouble if I have not done it by then. When this class ends,I will finally be able to meet up with Stella so we can do something about the jacket. The jacket that I really had nothing to do with it getting stained. The more I think about it, the lengths Rebecca is willing to go just to make sure that I have a bad day every single day, the worse it sounds. But clearly Rebecca was satisfied with just how much Brock was ready to defend her, with just how easily he came to her defense and gave me that stare. I hated to see that glare from his eyes because once he was my friend and I still believe there's something good inside of him for whatever reason that it is. But I just do. “ Alright, before the class is dismissed, I need you to pair up with your lab partner. For the next three weeks, we will be conducting every single experiment that we have done since the year began just to make sure you are actually learning something along the way”. Mrs Stroker, the chemistry teacher announces and my eyes just go up to the back of my head. Yes. This was the last thing I needed. I really hate being paired with anyone because truly being said, stella is my only friend and I do not even know how it happened. Even all the other Omegas hate me apart from her. It's really a stress. Every single time I have to be paired with someone, I have to be ready to be mistreated. “ So I will be doing it in the most fair way possible. Today we are doing a roulette with a bit of improvising I am going to hand you this box with names of your potential lab partner. I want it to be male and female. So today's turn is for the boys to pick”, she announced. And honestly, I really just needed it to be over. I already knew that whoever I got chosen to be paired with was going to be someone that was going to make those two weeks hell for me and ruin chemistry for me. Actually my favorite subject. As the box keeps getting passed around I can just feel his eyes on me. I wish I had not taken a seat where he could be monitoring me so closely. Or at least if I had. I wish I was not able to see him from the corner of my eyes clearly as I am able to. All I need to do is glance over to my side and there he is. There he is with his watchful eye that I really do not know why he maintains but he has such intense stare. When the box reaches him, I try my best not to look but I am unable to resist. It is the one time that I at least will be able to be watching him without him looking right back at me. He chooses one of the papers and after unfolding it there is a scoff coming from him, accompanied by a very annoyed face. He shakes his head head before vehemently telling misses Stroker that he will not be having this lab partner. “I am not getting paired with her. There is no way”. I hear his voice loud and clear. There is so much anger in his tone and I just begin to wonder who could it be that he really hates that much? The teacher grabs the paper from him right as he tries to throw it right back in the box and reads it out loud. “Nadine Mayer. Okay?” My eyes immediately go wide in shock. Who did she say? There's no way that is actually my name that he picked out. What are the odds? Why is this universe so against me? How could he pick me of all the girls in the class right now? “Exactly. I am not going to be in a group with Nadine Mayer”I. He reiterates it again and gives misses stroker his signature glare. Oh, that glare is able to put so many people in line. I do not even know how he does it, but he just has that kind of power. “ Well, Brock, this is for your own good and you are not going to get a retake. Time is of the essence”, she announced, and right as she tries to walk off, Brock grabs her wrist. “Give me another paper now.” He says to her and she just smiles back at him. “Do you know who I am? You seem to forget”, he warns.. There is so much tension in the class. People are entertained and I am just stressing the hell out. Why can't she just give him a different paper so this can end? I do not want to be paired with him for two weeks. Weeks. I could not take it. I could not take his hate and the disgust that he looks at me with every single time that he looks at me. I have never seen him looking at me differently at all. “Well, you are a prince, my prince. But you know very well that your father has clear instructions for me to even go harder on you than to go easy on you. And for that reason, I am not going to let you change your lab partner just because you do not want to be paired with her. I know nobody likes her. Even I don't like her. But she's my best student. And this is actually for your own good. Your grades could actually use some improving.” Mrs stroker makes that final word. And soon enough the box has reached the very last boy in the classroom and the lab partners have been chosen. Why me? Why did it have to be me? It could have been just anybody else. Couldn't it be someone that he could get distracted working with so I could focus on my own work with whoever the hell else would hate me. At least I feel they would hate me more than the person that I have to see every single morning serve and get insulted from. “Well, before this class ends, I know we only have five minutes, but get with your lab partner so I can let you know what you need to get done before the next period.” I wish Mrs Stroker was not saying everything that she was saying right now. In fact, I wish I had skipped this class. Maybe that way he would have been allowed to have a retake and I would find out later on who my lab partner was going to be. But that did not happen. That was not the case. Now I was left with no other option but to get closer to him. How was I supposed to even think of it when looking at him from this distance, it just feels like he is warning me not to get near him?
