SARAH'S POV
"Finally!"....Lesley exclaimed.
Look how excited she is. She's too excited that she brought two luggage.
For pete's sake, we're not going on a vacation.
"Are you okay handling that luggage of yours?"...I asked and she just smiled at me.
"Well it's hard to decide, so I brought all the things I might need"...yeah right.
The bus is here already but we are still waiting for other students so we could go.
But...
Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahh!!!!
Oh my god It's Wayne!!!!
He's really going?!!!!
Oh my god this is the first time I've seen him go?!
Maybe there's a reason behind it....
They're right.
It's really him. It's the first time I've seen him go to fieldtrips like this because of all years, he hasn't even went to one.
So it's kinda surprising to see him go.
Well it's not like we're gonna come in contact with each other.
So yeah. Just be calm and don't mind him.
"ATTention everyone, your seats will be according to your partner during this fieldtrip. And for your information, they are gonna be you partner for your final exam(thesis)"....said our professor.
I thought we'll work alone but what now?
"Let me read it aloud and when I call your name, come with your partner and sit inside the bus"...she added so all ears are on her.
"First pair...Lesley and Mia"...she announced.
Hearing that call Lesley waved her hand to me. She seems sad, maybe hoping that her partner is me.
But sadly not.
Most of the students are called and only a few was left including me...
And Wayne.
"Okay our last pair is"
"...Sarah Johnson and Wayne Grayson"...Sh*t.
Really?!
I'm trying to avoid him but this?!?!
"Are you coming or not?"...I heard him spoke.
*sigh*
I have no choice so I walked along with him and we took the backseat.
I sat mear the window while he's beside me.
To avoid contact, I kept my head at the window.
It's this stupid heart again....Argh...
Is it because...
No it can't be...
I'm just nervous that's all. Nothing MORE.
FOr the whole ride, we didn't even spoke to each other. No eye contacts.
Silence.
That's all between us.
Our positions are still the same. I can also hear my other classmates whispering about things and about
...us
"She's so stiff girl, it's not like Wayne's gonna do something to her"
"Well duh, she's not even his type"
"Seriously! I wish I was his partner not her"
"Lucky b*tch"
Upon hearing her, I valled my fist and just closed my eyes.
If no one was here. I would've punched her.
Arghhhh...
I just closed my eyes....I'm trying to hold it in.
B-but....
"Hey, you're not a bitch"....I heard him whisper so I looked at him but he looked away.
"Why do you care?"...I whispered loud enough for him to hear, but in the end there's no response.
I'm too stupid for waiting...
But what's this...k-kind gesture?
Showing off?
But before I could dive deep into my thoughts, we were finally here.
"OKAY, students we're here. We are going to stay in this hotel. Girls are upstair and Boys are downstairs"....she announced and we gathered along the reception.
"Now go unpack and be down in 30 minutes for dinner"...she added and they excitedly went to their respective rooms.
"Hey, how's the trip"....Lesley suddenly spoke while I'm unpacking my things but I did'nt respond.
"Hey! I'm asking you?"...really it's more like teasing me so I looked at her.
"It's fine, and nothing happened"...I said and she sat beside me.
"Are you hoping something that could've happened..hmm? Are you"
"No! Of course not, and why would I be?"...I said and stood up to organize my clothes into the cabinets.
"I'm just teasing you, no need to be so worked up she said and put her arms around me.
"Yeah I know, now get pff and get your things done"....I said and she did.
Since I'm done unpacking I headed down first.
Most of them are still packing I guess..
There are only too few down here and the professor is not here also.
And there's still ten minutes left so I roamed alone in the hotel.
Just then....
"Hey"..."Who--"
I thought it was someone else but..
"Did I startle you?"...it's Crane.
"Yeah"....I said and started to walk again and so was he.
"Hey, don't ignore me"....acting friendly huh?
"Then what should I do?"...I asked still not looking on him.
"Be relaxed..I'm not gonna do something on you"...he assured me so I stopped.
I looked at him and ask.
"Why are you doing this?"
He fell silent. Is my question really that hard to answer.
"S-sarah"
"I'm asking you Crane"...I said but he's still silent.
"What--*sigh* What do you mean, Why am I doing these?"....
"I don't know, First it was Wayne...then now you, Am I your target?"....I asked.
"What?! No, Sarah, it isn't what you think it is. I just wanna be close with you"....he said so I couldn't amswer back.
Just when...
He started to hold both of my shoulder so I was surprised and took a step back.
"D-don't touch me"....but.
"Please believe me".....he was about to touch me again but.
*BOOOOOOOGSH*
"WHA-"....a sudded punched knocked him out.
°○°!
Who did that?!
"Are you okay?"...I heard his voice.
So it was him....
.....again.
"Hey, I'm asking you"...he spoke again so I looked at him. "Don't worry, he'll wake up after a while"...he said and started walking away.
Since I don't have anything to do here, I followed him out.
~*~
Walking behind him, I just looked at him walking in front of me.
He's tall.
Good figure.
Plus a handsome face.
Is that why girls fall on his trap?
Yeah...maybe.
We were just silent along the way. No talking, just walking.
And in that deafening silence, I can only hear my heart.
This stupid heart.
And I hate this. I can't accept every beat I heard.
It's annoying.
It's so annoying that it feels like this.
With that jerk.
I wish someone can pull out my heart make this beating stop.
But sadly no one can...
Maybe I'm just stupid to know what this is....
Or maybe not.
To be continued....
