Chereads / Flames Of Life. / Chapter 3 - Ocean Eyes.

Chapter 3 - Ocean Eyes.

Lisa's POV:

"Why are you so quiet, Omer?" asks Mia suddenly.

"I'm always like that! What made you say that?" asks Omer silently.

"I don't know, you are fun and not so quiet and uninteresting" says Mia.

Somehow I feel Mia and Omer like each other. The way they are staring at each other and sitting so close.

And I ship already.

I look up to Josh who is watching them and then he stares at me with a small smile trying to signal something.

I know he's trying to tell me the same thing that I'm noticing.

"Guess, having a bad day" sighs Omer looking at me. Yeah, the first time he pulls up his face towards me.

I try to give him a little smile.

The bell rings and everybody heads over to their class.

"So, it's your third day here right?" I ask Josh in the hallway.

"yeah! This school is pretty fun".

"Hmm. What's your next class?" I ask him as I see mine. "I have a library period".

"I think, I have History. So, bye. See around?" he says

"Bye! See you" I walk away to the library upstairs.

As I walk past the cell room, I hear two teachers arguing.

They were talking slowly so I tried to come closer to listen to the whole conversation.

No, it's not my business but I mean, come on you would do that too.

"how could you do such a mistake? You know it's important for us to finish the task.."

I don't know what they are talking about but they look tense.

I try to look at who they are, and..

I trip over my foot.

Suddenly I hear footsteps of the teacher walking towards the door, towards me

Oh shoot! I'm dead.

I'm definitely dead.

I run and hide immediately.

Thank God!

My eyes widen in shock as I see my chemistry teacher.

It's him. But what were they talking about.

He looks like he is caught doing something bad. He looks scared.

I can hear my heartbeat right now.

My heart is racing so hard.

I don't know why I am nervous but something tells me that there is something wrong.

I quickly run up to my class.

I see the teacher already in the class.

I enter as he looks at me suspiciously.

"I.. I went to the washroom" I say nervously.

I try to find a seat for me.

"you can sit there" says the teacher pointing towards a seat next to a guy at the back.

Wait, he is the one who called me kid.

Why am I sitting next to him. He didn't notice so it's good.

I don't know why am I feeling awkward.

I grab a book.

"hey, uh.. Can you pass me the book right there. The fifth edition?" he says pointing towards my left.

"this one?" I ask slightly pulling a book on left.

"No, the one that's a little at the bottom"

"This one?" I ask again awkwardly.

He chuckles and says again "a bit at the left"

Oh God, why am I so stupid? I don't even know the directions.

"I'm sorry, I don't know which one, there are so many with the fifth edition of this book?" I say smiling nervously.

He stares at me for awhile and tries to get close to me.

Again, I freez as he comes closer to me.

I can see his jawline.

He shoves his hand towards the book he wanted, grabs it and turns his head towards me, and I can't help but stare at his face only inches apart.

"This one" he whispers as he stares at me with a smirk.

I nod my head.

Umh..

You. Are. Awkward. And. An. Idiot. Lisa.

"What's your name, kid?" he asks being busy reading the book.

Okay, he remembers me. More awkward.

But Kid? Again?

"stop calling me a kid, first" I say while I roll my eyes.

"Not until you tell me your name.. Kid" he smirks at me.

I sigh and say "I'm Lisa, Lisa Logan. And you?"

"great name! I'm daniel" he says.

Crush updated!

Okay, he looks stunning when he smiles.

"why haven't I seen you before?" he asks turning his face towards me and raising an eyebrow.

"I don't know, I guess we never crossed paths before" I say staring at him breaking no eye contact.

Why am I falling into his ocean eyes.

Lisa, stop staring this is awkward.
