I was getting prepared for my bio class practical. I was searching for my books and pen in my walled locker. I found them! I quickly took the padlock and locked it. I wasn't looking at my direction and then bump! Not again! I bumped into someone. But this time it wasn't the annoying Liam, but a very good looking guy. I then lost my balance and felt his hand around my waist. Our eyes then met. It was like the boy had descended in front of me like a God, his light brown hair_ almost golden in colour _fluttered with his every moment. He also had beautiful rosy lips and he started at me with those beautiful hazel eyes.
"Um... I am sorry, I didn't see you coming, " I apologized.
"It's alright, " He said letting go of my waist. "But you should watch your step, " He said smiling at me.
I first started staring at him without blinking, he's got such an amazing smile, and yes not rude at all.
"My name is Kevin, what's your name? " He asked breaking the silence.
"Um Nicole, " I replied while we were shaking hands.
I couldn't stop smiling at him.
"So you're new here? " He asked.
"Yeah, but I am getting used to it, " I said then we broke our shake. His palms were so smooth and cold.
Then I felt my cheeks burning...wait, am I blushing. Yeah his gaze made me blush and suddenly I felt hot, I started unzipping my jacket, revealing my black crop top inside.
For a moment he stared at my small naked waist.
Then the bell rang. "Oh shit! I am late for my maths class, " He said looking at his wrist watch.
"Nicole it was nice meeting you, see you later! " He said walking away.
{He left so quickly I didn't even get the chance to say my pleasure}I thought to myself.

"Today we are going to do an experiment by using the specimen provided and our microscope, " Said Mrs. Morgan. "The specimen provided is an onion which is already cut,I want you to check on the stages of Mitosis... The winners gets this golden onion, " She added carrying a big golden onion.
Everyone was choosing a partner and I was left there standing confused.
"Nicole, why are you standing there and Liam doesn't have a partner? " Mrs. Morgan asked.
Great! She wanted me to sit with the boy who we are always arguing. I then looked at her thinking she would change her mind, but she didn't even look back at me.
From a far I saw Beatrice sitting next to Frank. Yeah she told me she has a crush on him, but she just couldn't say it. But I guess she's even more uncomfortable than me.
I pulled myself together and went where Liam was and stood besides the table far from him.
"I don't bite, " He said.
I then went to the side that he was.
"Ladies first, I will state, you observe, " He said.
"But we are working together, "
"Yeah but I didn't read my notes, I won't be able to identify it, " He explained.
"I'll help you know them and how they appear at the microscope, " I told him.
Suddenly I saw his gaze softening. "Okay, "
The table was too high so I had to stand on a stool so I that I could use the microscope.
Liam just giggled softly, I just frowned.
"It's Anaphase, " Beatrice said then wrote it down.
"Can I see?" Frank asked.
Beatrice just pushed it to him.
"Yeah it's Anaphase, " Frank confirmed.
"It's Telephase, " Frank state.
"Can I comfirm? " She asked.
Frank just pushed it back.
"I saw you at the party_did you have fun," Frank asked.
" I left early, because of my curfew, "she answered after confirming. " Yeah it's Telephase, "she state then wrote it down.
" Did you have a good time? "Frank asked again.
" Nope, I was alone, but I'm used to it, "
"Oh, so would you be free after class?" Frank asked.
"Uh uh_i have music class to attend to, " She answered quickly.
Frank just scratched his blonde hair a bit. "Um, cool, "
"It's interphase, you wanna confirm? " She asked.
"Nope, I believe you, " He said then smiled at her.
Beatrice just smiled without revealing her teeth.

Finally class was over. We had already made our observations and the teacher awarded the best group, but Liam and I came second since our microscope had a bit of a problem.
"Okay now, you can all go for your break, " Said our bio teacher Mrs. Morgan.
"I am happy for your co-operation, " She said then left the lab.
People started leaving the lab and left us. We were just cleaning up our microscope and I was still on the stool. Suddenly I lost my balance and the stool tilted, and I was about to fall, but I felt someone catching me by the waist. Liam!
