After the heated argument, Heather needed some air, she just needed to get away from everyone. She walked through the hallways with so much anger. The anger reflected in the steps and the manner in which she moved.
She was absolutely absent minded about whoever or whatever was happening around her. All she wanted was to leave that instant.
'Hey... Heather!' Shawn called out but she didn't turn to him. 'Heather?' 'What!' she shouted in anger which made Shawn quite confused. 'Oh... I'm, Shawn I...' she tried to apologize whrn she realized who she screamed at. 'Hey what's wrong, are you all right?' he asked very concerned.
She took at moment to absorb the situation, so Shawn also magically got less busy...great now everyone just ghost out and reappear whenever they want to! That's just great.
'Are you-' 'I'm fine!' she retorted throwing him off even more. 'Okay...well that's good. I came to surprise you anyways' ' what a great surprise it was' she said sarcastically. 'Hey wait a minute, what's with?' Heather exhaled loudly. 'Nothing... sorry I'm just not in the mood today'
'Oh, sorry cramps or...' 'I'd rather not talk about it. Anyways what's up with you? Why did you suddenly choose to show up at school, thought you were busy?' ' like I said, to surprise you' ' well, why did to suddenly choose to surprise me?' ' I dunno...I missed you I guess...' he confessed throwing her off. She immediately glanced over at him and him grinned. 'And yes, I have someone to introduce you to' ' really you made a friend at school?' 'not really...' 'then where?' 'at work' 'which is?' 'something that gives me good money' 'oh come on Shawn...tell me' 'another time' 'oh and why is your friend from work at school right now, I mean... school isn't over yet and no one except students can-' 'he's a student' 'huh?' 'I made him one' Shawn declared with proud smirk. 'What?' she did not expect that.
'Wait a minute, how is that even possible?' she shouted. 'keep your voice down' Shawn mumbled while grinning. 'Shawn how did you do this? First you enrolled yourself after making a dramatic scene and now, you got your friend in too?' 'I guess the principal can't resist my charms' he stated making Heather roll her eyes at him. 'Come let's be honest, not only the principal can't resist my charms...' he said looking straight into her eyes. She got a little uncomfortable with the sudden stare and looked away almost immediately. 'well, uhm' she cleared her throat to break the awkward slience' let's, um let's go meet your friend then' she said as she walked ahead then he followed.
'So...who am I-' Heather started but he cut her off. 'Him' Shawn looking in the direction of his friend. 'Oh...' she turned to the direction too. The guy looked good. Curly black hair, pinks lips and all. His body looked well built too. 'Is his a Black Amer- ' 'yes but preferably he is not addressed as that' 'Oh! Sorry, didn't mean to disrespect. He screms hunk by the way' Shawn chuckled at her statement.
'Yeah like, he just came and he is already handling so many girls' she justified herself, referring to the many girls that surrounded him and making him feel over the top. 'Yeah... that's what he does...' 'What? For a living?' she joked. 'Yes' he mumbled 'What?' 'Huh? I mean, he's a playboy' 'yeah...' she mumbled in relief after that sort of half scare. It could have meant anything, a prostitute, stripper, anything.
'Well umm...I guess we can't meet him, since he is "busy" Heather said casually 'what's his name anyway?' 'Mayo' Shawn answered. 'Mayo...the quite a name...'Heather rumbled lost in thought while her gaze was fixed on Mayo. He lifted his eyes a little from the girls flooding him and his gaze connected with hers. She was still lost in her thoughts. He winked at her with a smirk which broke her out of her trance. He smirked widened at her reaction as he looked back at his girls. 'What a weirdo' she registered.
'Hey! Are you also getting blown away by his good looks' Shawn asked teasingly. ' Hell no, he's just a weirdo and I would ever be blown away by anyone-it would be-' she paused realizing she almost spilt it. 'Who?' Shawn asked as he was quite curious. ' N-no one, Let's just forget it' ' tell me...' ' then tell where you work first' she cornered him 'clever response' he admitted... 'sigh' she was relieved that she distracted him. She almost blattered it out a moment ago. That was close. 'Come, let me take you somewhere...' he said as he held her hand 'huh?' she was confused. 'Come on...' 'okay...'
Just before they left, Mayo looked their direction again. With the intense gaze and slight grin on his face, it seemed he just found something interesting...'it will be fun' he noted inwardly.
