I got back to class after changing my wet clothes with the help of Felix. I know that he has been thinking about what happened back in the men's room. I don't know either so I can't explain it to him
Everyone watched as we came back to the class and sat down. The principal was no longer there and Mr. Douglas had left the class as well.
"Hey Scott, Mr. Nat wants to see you in his office," one of the guys in the class said to my hearing. I nodded knowing why my principal would seek to see me. It's not every day one leaves the classroom without permission from the principal.
There was a teacher in the class but the lady wasn't the problem. The one that was somewhere around behind me was the problem.
I slowly moved my eyes searching for the new girl that had caused me to run out of my principal's presence. I knew she was somewhere around, I could sense her behind me. There was this beautiful aroma that came with her and I knew she was the one with that sweet fragrance.
As I turned slowly looking at everyone in the class, my eyes met hers and I quickly moved my face away. My heartbeat had increased and I couldn't think straight anymore.
Gosh! What the hell was that?
"Are you okay?" Felix asked me as he turned to see me trying to regulate my breathing.
I shook my head negatively, I knew I wasn't fine. There was something that girl was doing to me and I don't know if I liked it or not. It's more like a bittersweet feeling, a painful but pleasurable feeling.
I could feel the pain in my chest, like I wanted to burst open and grab her in my arms, never letting her go. I don't know why and I know I shouldn't do that
"Hey man, you've been acting weird today. Did the traffic do that to you?" One of the guys in the class asked. I found myself grinning as I remembered that I had lied to Mr. Douglas about the traffic.
"You just said it all" I replied with a smile but I didn't look up at him. I could feel my eyes were blue again. It's not normal for once-blown eyes to turn blue.
"Felix" I called in a whisper. He turned to look at me and almost screamed when he saw my blue eyes again
"Get up" I did just as he said and followed him outside with my eyes down. Again, we didn't take permission from the teacher before leaving. We could hear the teacher complain about us being unserious because we just stepped in and we were leaving again but neither I nor Felix paused to look in her direction. We had more important things to deal with
I and Felix walked up to the rooftop of the school building. He was confused. I could see it in his face and actions but I do not have an explanation for him, I was confused as well.
Felix and I have been friends since we were in second grade. We've done everything together and we understand ourselves very well. His parents are my parents and my parents are his parents.
"God, Scott! What is wrong with you?" He asked all confused
"I don't know, I don't know" I murmured as I walked to take a seat on the floor.
"Your eyes... They are back to brown" he informed me. I sighed dejectedly as I didn't know what to make of it.
"So let's get to understand this" he sat down in front of me so we could both face each other. His hands placed on his head as he was as confused as I am and also trying to figure out what is wrong with me
"Do you know when it started?" He asked like an investigator. This wasn't the time to tease him, I would have asked him if he wanted to switch careers now as a detective maybe. But he looked serious so I replied
"This morning"
"This morning, at home? Was that why you came late?" He asked but I shook my head
"This morning when Mr. Nat came into the class"
He hummed as he fell into deep thoughts. I wondered what he was thinking about but I really wanted an answer for why my eyes were changing color and why I was feeling so hot whenever I saw her.
"Could it be...." He paused, I waited for him to continue but he didn't. I frowned at Felix and wanted to slap the back of his head.
He knows how I hate it when he pauses his statement like that. I wasn't smart enough to fill in the words. Before I could complain about it he continued,
"Could it be that Mr. Nat is the one doing this to you?" He asked. He didn't wait for my reply as he explained further
"Because you said it happened when Mr. Nat entered the class. Before then, you were fine but immediately he entered, you began to act differently. Maybe he had done something to discipline you because you are just too stubborn"
I appreciate Felix wanting to help me but this isn't helping me one bit. I didn't know if I should really slap the back of his head to correct his senses. What does he mean by Mr. Nat doing this and that? When did Mr. Nat have superpowers?
"You've watched too many movies, Felix. What can Mr. Nat really do?" I asked before saying,
"Besides, this is not the first time I am seeing Mr. Nat." I paused as I narrowed my eyes thinking... Could it be?
"But this is definitely the first time I am seeing the new girl" I muttered but Felix heard me well enough
He looked at me with wide eyes before pointing his index finger at me
"Are you saying that the girl has a hand in what's going on now?" Felix asked but I didn't know the reply to give to him.
It's not like we are in some magical world or something. This isn't a movie either, it is reality and in reality, something like this is not meant to happen. Science has not gotten to the level where It could control what one feels inside without placing some devices in the person.
