Everlyn's pov:
The end of summer sucks for almost everyone. But for me, it sucks harder because I get to spend one more semester with Mr know it all. Believe me when I say my math teacher could be mistakenly as an angel, well he's not. He's just a wolf in sheep clothing.
Sometimes I wonder if offended him real bad in our past lives, because he seems to make a big deal out of everything I do. For instance, I am not allowed to take my eyes off him while he lectures and I solve almost half of the assignments he gives us. Although, I'm surprised he hasn't complained that i breath too loud or gulp too hard whenever he subconsciously flex his muscles while explaining something in class.
Exactly, he is not one of those old looking math teachers with glasses. Nope, he's more like a dumbass with angel like features. And as much as I would hate to admit it, I secretly admire him, but not in the way you're thinking. Yeah, not that way because as far as am concerned, nothing could ever conspire between I and Mr Quin, that's his name by the way.
"Honey you okay" mom asks me, while pulling over at the parking lot of Nivel dinne high.
"Hm, just anxious" I reply before scrambling off the car, then I smooth out my uniform so they don't appear wrinkled.
"You would be fine sweetie, just stay focused and you're good" she reassures me "but remember, no boyfriends or else you want me to relecture you on that again " she adds and I cringe. Hell nah!
"I get it mom, not necessary" I call out as I scrurry into the building.

I arrived to my class not long after, passing by some noisy teens gathered on a spot like ants on honey.
"Sqeeeaaa" a familiar femine voice squeak behind me, as she hugs me tight, causing me to chulckle. Ariel, my best friend.
"You have no idea how much I missed you" she beams.
"Missed you more" I smile, before pulling away and she suddenly gasp, eyeing me from head to toe.
"Did you get a plastic surgery or something? You look different" she says, amused.
"Tch" I scoff and she narrows her eyes at me suspiciously.
"What?"
"You tell me, did you have sex" she bluntly ask, causing me to choke on nothing.
"What sort of question is that Ariel" I frown, feeling a bit weird because of the word "sex".
"Don't be silly, because that's the only thing that could explain why your boobs have suddenly enlarge, your hips don't look narrow either and damn" she spins me around to check out my ass. "Now this is where my ass went" she pretends to sniff before swiping a finger at the corner of her eyes to erase invisible tears, and I roll my eyes, smiling a little.
"Cut it out, drama queen" I shake my head before pulling her to the backseats of the class. "We seat here this semester, so eagle eye doesn't get a good view of me" I utter, settling into one of the seats and she joins me.
"I doubt it. He would find you, even if you hide in his pants" she retorts, and I let out an exhale.
"You're right, I give her the sad look, already dreading what is to come from the brat of a teacher.
"Aww sweetie. Let's hope for the best, who knows? He may have changed" she says, patting me on the shoulder.

I glare at Mr Quin, as he calmly jams his hands into the pockets of his navy blue pants while gazing outside the window of the classroom. He looks sinfully handsome from this angle, as the wind blows past his soft brown curls which highlights his sharp features, that it only makes me wanna punch that perfectly sculptured face of his, and turn it to mashed potatoes. Reason being, the maniac chose to begin the semester with a damn pop quiz I wasn't prepared for. And what frustrates me the most was that, I couldn't even glance at Ariel's to copy the answers some teens passed around, due to the asshole giving me the death stare the whole time. And now, am stuck with my worst night and a freaking word problem I don't even know exist. I mean, where on earth does 'x' hide in math.
"I suppose you're done miss align" he asks, narrowing his eyes at me and I gulp, just realizing I've been staring at him for a while now.
"Almost sir" I drag my gaze back to the problematic quiz, and I see him move back to his desk from the corner of my eyes.
"What do I do now" I mumble to myself, as I suck on my lips. I'm starving, and my sudden weight gain only adds to my hunger. I don't really fancy food, but like the saying "Man must eat". Yeah, that's what describes me best.
I poke the corner of my mouth, as an idea pops through my mind." Oouchh, it hurts so bad" I whine as I grip my belly to feign a stomach ache, so I could excuse myself and never show up again. But he just looks up from his device, raising a brow at me as though he sees through my fables.
"Finish up and leave already. I have important things to do" he tells me in a cold tone, as he goes through some files on his desk. I get it, I ain't important to you but you don't have to make it obvious 🙄.
I finish up shortly, knowing fully well that I blew up the test. But you know, who cares? I just want out of here because his aura sets me unease for every reason.
"Am finished" I mutter, slowly placing my sheet on his desk and I watch as his gaze travels down my figure, but he recovers fast as he clears his throat before inspecting my worksheet. Oh...k I would pretend I didn't see that.
"You're unbelievable" he groans, forking his fingers through his hair in frustration. "You've been seating right there just to submit this shit" he spat out in annoyance, but seems calm nevertheless. Don't tell me that you psycho. How would you expect a poor girl to reason with an unsatisfied stomach? Besides am just a baby! I retort in my mind, but kept silent as I notice a wrapped burger from a restaurant I don't really care about, because all I could think of that moment, is to devour it.
"Mr Quin" I utter on the verge on the verge of breaking down and he perches a brow at me, seeming displeased by my uncaring demeanor, as he follows my gaze to the burger on his desk. Fuck, I needed this.
"With due respect, borrow me this" I say, as I quickly grab the burger and devour it into half, not caring he's right there watching me, probably wondering if am human. But I could care less, I'm saving a soul. Only when I was done, did reality strike in. It's too late though, as the victim is already staring at me with a knowing gaze, as though he expected it. But how??
"I -I would get you another" I press my lips bashfully, cleaning my mouth with the back of my hand so I don't look a complete mess.
"Nevermind. I wouldn't eat it anyway" he says, before taking his eyes off me as though I disgust him, which is true. "As for the quiz, am having you solve them early tomorrow's morning in class, so ensure you make it early if you don't want it doubled" he continues, dismissing me with his hand as he returns his focus back to the files on his desk. And I use the opportunity to glare at him before moving towards the exit. What a jerk... it's not like am dirty or something 😒.
