I went to school the next day with bags under my eyes. I couldn't sleep the night before because I kept thinking about the green hoodie I saw at Liam's house.
"Sophie!" My friends came up to me. "Hey," I said, my voice grumpy. "What's the deal with the eye bags?" Emma inquired. "I just didn't get enough sleep last night," I explained casually, to which Emma nodded.
"Anyways, did you hear Mr. Harold is leaving the school?" Ariana asked with excitement in her voice. "Really?" I responded, shocked.
"Yeah, and he's throwing a farewell party tomorrow night," Ariana smiled. " Mr. Harold throwing a farewell party?"What the hell happened? This is unbelievable! " I couldn't believe what I was hearing.
"I know, I couldn't believe it at first, but when I asked him, he admitted the rumour was true," Ariana said. "I guess he's finally becoming a good teacher," I said, and Ariana shrugged.
The bell rang, and Ariana, Emma, and I walked to class together, which felt strange because we hadn't done so in a long time, and I guess the news about Mr. Harold helped me improve my mood. Because of him, my reputation as a good student was ruined because he had given me detention multiple times for the most ridiculous reasons
.
We entered the classroom before taking a seat and continued to gossip about Mr. Harold. Liam appeared in front of me out of nowhere.
"Meet me in the library during lunch break," he said sexily before walking back to his right just in time for Mrs. Agnath to walk in.
"Sometimes I think you and Liam are dating," Ariana teased, making me roll my eyes.

When the bell for lunch rang, I went to the library. In between lectures, I asked my friends for flirting advice. My goal was to make Sophie fall in love with me before the project deadline.
I decided to start by flirting and teasing her on occasion, and today I will attempt to flirt with her throughout our time in the library.
I sat in a location that was not visible from the library's entrance, waiting for my target to enter.
After what seemed like an eternity, the library's door opened and the blonde haired girl I had been waiting for entered.
I quickly hid behind the bookshelves, glancing at her occasionally as she looked for me. I waited for her to approach me before taking action.

I entered the quiet library in search of Liam. I moved deeper into the library when my eyes didn't catch sight of him.
A pair of arms suddenly pushed me against the shelves as I walked in between the towering selves, making me flinch. "Are you looking for me?" Liam's husky voice said as I opened my eyes and noticed him staring me down.
I pushed him away, then cleared my throat and said, "Yes, so now let's continue with our research?" Liam laughed before responding, "as you wish."
Throughout the lunch break, Liam would wink at me or stare at my lips with a flirtatious look that made me weak to the knees. He was enjoying my state and kept flirting with me nonstop.
I despised the sensation. I didn't want his presence to take control over me. What I despised the most was that I wanted to flirt with him or do more, but I had to restrain myself.
