I groan as my alarm rings. I reach around for my phone to turn it off and check the time, 5 am. I have exactly 2 hours to get ready. I reluctantly sit up and rub my eyes.
I go take a shower and wear my clothes. I stood infront of the mirror checking my outfit. I looked good.
I head downstairs, my parents weren't home, they were on a buisness trip so me and Ash were home alone.
There he was, shirtless, flipping pancakes. "Ugh...Ash, go wear a shirt". He turns to look at me, smirking,
"Why?".
"Cause no one wants to see like that", with that I sit down and eat my pancakes.
"Thats a lie, Soph, many girls want to see me shirtless, even your best frie-", before he can finish I throw a spatula at him and he dodges it, by an inch.
After our bickering, he drives me to school. "Ash! slow down, youre going too fast". I shout at him, as he swerves the bike right and drives faster,
"Soph, if we slow down any further, we're gonna be late". I scream again when he increases the speed.
"Im too young to dieeee". He scoffs,
"believe me, with you gone, my life is so much easier". As we reach the school, he hits the brakes. I smack his shoulder and get down,
"Bastard", I middle finger him and run to the entrance, 8 mins till the bell.
I bump into something hard, "Ow, who kept a wall here?". I hear a low chuckle as arms wrap around my waist, to keep my sturdy.
"Geez, Velvet, watch where you're going." Velvet? The only person that called me that was...
"Michael?". I say looking up at him,
"The one an' only, Velvet". I suddenly realized I was clinging to him and pull away clearing my throat, ahem ahem.
I run to my locker, flustered cause why did I hold onto him? I enter my pin and open my locker, shoving my backpack inside and grabbing my phone, water bottle, a pencil case and notebooks.
After I close my locker, I run to my classroom taking my seat in the back.
Why do I sit in the back? No noise, I can eat snacks and drinks coffee, hehe I'm so smart.
I plop down on my seat and sip my latte and open my notebook to a folded page, and do the homework sheet, it was chemistry, so I struggled.
I keep sipping my latte, munch on cookies and finally, FINALLY, finish the page an get up to give hand it in.
As I make my way to the teachers desk I bump into someone, again. I stumble, nearly about to fall on my ass but a pair of strong arms wrap around them an pull me close.
"Velvet darling, do you always bump into everyone or is it just me?". It's him again? God hates me. I pull back, glaring at him,
"the world doesn't revolve around just you, you know? I bump into everyone, your not special", I say putting the sheet on the teachers desk, huh,... He isn't here yet?
Good, that creep stares at all girls, I shiver at the thought, then I heard him say,
"Ouch, princess, you wound me", I look up to see him with a hand on his heart, looking wounded, "After all. I thought you loved me".
I look at him, that infuriatingly handsome smirk is on his mouth again, .... Why am I looking at his mouth anyways!? I slap myself mentally,
"Whoever told you that, must be delusional". Sticks my tongue out at him and sit down on my spot again.
Just then the professor comes and starts the lesson. Lily manages to sneak in and plops down in between me and her bf, my brother Asher, and they start kissing and I turn away.
As much as I love them both I can't watch them kiss.
The seat on my right side is free and I sigh in relief but that relief doesn't last long as Michael comes and sits next to me, ignoring his usual seat beside his GF, Angelica.
Why is he ignoring her you might ask? I don't know, I dnt pay attention to rumours. Wait...I do! just uhhh...I try not to. Try is the focus part here....
"Michael, this isn't your seat",
he replies,
"Why? I focus better with you here", he smirks at me. I sigh deeply, he leans closer, "Do I distract you? Can you not focus with me here?", he smirk widens into a grin.
"W-what!? Of course I can focus, you being here doesn't change that". He shrugs,
"We'll see about that, Velvet", with that he turns away.
As class goes on, I doodle on my the margins of my notebook, flowers, raindrops and vines, it all goes well until I catch him staring, ...Well, what does he want now.
"What do you want?", I ask him, turning in my seat to meet his eyes. He blinks his eyes, feigning innocence,
"Nothing just...admiring your beauty Velvet", he winks.
I feel my face getting hot, I turn away avoiding eye contact, "shut up and stop lying too". I try to focus on doodling and writing notes, trying to not pay attention to him.He smirks,
"Velvet....are you...distracted?". This mother damned bastard was taunting me! Before I could give him an earful, I hear another's voice, quiet but could silence a class,
"Sophia, Michael, have something to share with the class?", oh shit...its the creep ass teacher again. I kick Michael's shin under the table,
"sorry, Mr. Smith", I say looking at the teacher, who was standing and looking down at us, a weird glint in his eyes,
"Oh really, Sophia? Michael?". Michael nodded, making him leave.
I sigh in relief, and turn to glare at Michael, "idiot, what'd you distract me for?". He just grins before turning away to write in his notebook.
Now that I've taken a good look at him...his outfit its, pretty good looking on him..
(his outfit)
As I shamelessly stare at his outfit and the way it fits him, he catches me staring, smirking again. "Velvet...you're staring". I snap back into reality, and look up startled.
I meet his eyes, we stare at each other, seconds passing like hours as we maintain eye contact, the bell rings and we get jolted back into reality. I cough, looking away, as I pack quickly.
I rush out of the room and head upstairs to the library. I plop down on a chair behind a section and find myself remembering the way he looked in that outfit.
The way it fit him...the first buttons undone...and oh god his Adam's apple, wonder how It feels like to ki—I slap myself, coming back to reality.
My cheek stung, as I processed how I talked about him...."fucking damn it...".
I take out a book, determined to focus on something else than him. For a moment it doesnt work, untill the characters finally start being....intimate,
I read more, blushing, as my eyes travel down the page, taking every word it. It was sooo good until I flipped to the next page.
A new chapter, with the first sentence being— She woke up, realizing it was all a dream.
I nearly throw the book across the room. All of THAT! and it was a dream!....Horrific.
As I was still furious with the author from giving us what we need but making it a dream. My alarm rings on my phone,
Shoot! I have Cook Club. I practically sprint like the wind and rush to the room, closing the door behind me.
"Hello Angel", I hear Lily's voice and skip over to embrace her.
"Hello Darling", pecks her cheek, "I missed you soo much." clings to her side. She laughs softly, patting my back, content to let me stay there.
"Is he here yet?", I ask her, voice muffled against her cardigan.
"Who? Michael? No, he isnt here yet." She pulls back to meet my eyes.
"Finally!", jumps back in excitement, "That idiot Finally forgot to attend to a meeting." As I was basking in my joy, I hear a quiet chuckle behind me and turn to see, Michael!
"Hahah! Did you really think that I'll miss a day Velvet?", he chuckles again, ruffling my hair as I stood there stunned.
The rest of the club tries to muffle their snickers and giggles. "Anyways! gather up", he orders them, standing at the table.
