The next day , claire woke up a little late and had to rush to school without eating her breakfast she didn't even check to know if her mom is back
When she reached school she went straight to her class to avoid the too much gaze people were giving her.
She couldn't find Cleo so she had to sit alone in her desk .
The class went pretty smoothly than she expected. Due to she couldn't eat her breakfast,she was so hungry she had to go the school cafetaria. She has always hated going there cause of the many students there and the eyes they are giving her.
As she was dishing out food for herself,
" Hi", she heard a voice, frowning a little she turned to know the person . She was surprised a little when she saw it was the new guy, that had rudely interrupted her peaceful mind and her studies making her feel so insecure. She hasn't forgotten about it but looking at him now made her remember it more and is a little vexed .
" Hi", she replied turning back to continue picking her food . She didn't hear him speak again and thought he had gone back but didn't dare to look back cause she could feel the death glares from other students . She went to a table where no one would notice her and say down to enjoy the food suddenly someone say down with her too. She looked up it was still him 'didn't he leave' . She rolled her eyes and decided to ignore him .
****
Alex knew he messed up, so when he had calm down he went to school the next day . All the girls were shouting, whispering amongst themselves as he passed but his mind was based on one person the girl with the green eyes . The only girl that has ever made his heart flutter like a teenage boy falling in love for the first time . He saw her carrying food her shoulder a little slumped looking so lonely . He wanted to walk up to her and tell her she was not alone that he will always be with her but that would have to wait, he still got some explaining to do .
He breathed in and out and went up to where she stood . He didn't know how to start greeting her without knowing if he won't mess up .
"Hi", he greeted . He saw her turn, he held his breath as she turned to him . His heart beating fast but it died down as she turned with a frown on her face . He wasn't surprised with time they will get to know each other well.
"Hi ", she greeted back and continued picking her food .
He was surprised that she said hi back to him . She turned back and continued picking her food he decided to wait when she was done.
He followed her to her table, she wasn't even paying any mind to him or more like she seemed to have forgotten about him, he chuckled inwardly .
"I'm Alexander", he introduced smiling a little
'What so funny', Claire thought and looked down to continue her food
Alex noticed the skeptical looks she gave him , 'ouch that hurt a little but it's a matter of time', he thought
"I don't like talking while eating", she said not caring if he was offended or not . 'Who cares it's not like I said anything wrong , I don't talk while eating ', she thought assuring herself she wasn't rude,unlike him.
Hmph, she got more annoyed just by the thought of what he did .
If thoughts were easily read Alex might might as well be a mind reader cause she was like an open book to him .
He smiled and continued," I just want to be friends with you ".
It seems like he wasn't planning on giving up yet .
I don't wanna be friends with you she wanted to say but decided against it. A part of her just doesn't want to hurt the boys feelings and she doesn't know why and it's irritating her .
"Claire", she simply said it's not like he doesn't know or hasn't heard my name or what they call me .
'She looks so cute when angry' , Alex thought holding his smile
" You look cute when you are angry" , Alex suddenly said out of nowhere
'Shit I never meant to say that out loud'.
Claire almost choked on her food with her two cheeks now flushed red like tomato. She looked up at him more annoyed, so he could tell she was angry but acted like he didn't know .
