Chapter 3
I was so uncomfortable as I sat here in the cafeteria with him.....


He didn't leave my side all morning it seemed. Cause unfortunately for me we had most of the same courses which made it harder to stay away from him.

Nervously picking up a part of my  sandwich. And I took a bite, I feel his eyes watching my every move.

Maybe I should've skipped lunch and went to hide out in the library or something. But my stomach was telling me others things. At this moment I can barely eat anything. Sitting across right now it really nerve wracking, I wanted to get up and leave. But of course I was scared to do so.

I thought to myself " What is wrong with me? " not noticing I had sighed out loud.

" What's the matter ? Food's not good ? "

If he only knew, should I tell him to back off. But if I didn't, would the past repeat itself. I didn't want what happened in highschool rear it's ugly head again.

" I should go, " I said in a low voice, getting up from the table. And made it far as the hallway before I felt a hand wrap around my arm.

" What's the matter ? Why are you leaving ? "

" Have somewhere else to be, " I lied as I pulled his hand off my arm. As I walked away I turned around to see him standing there like he lost his best friend or something. I really didn't like all the attention being around him was getting me. Because there were plenty of eyes watching.


I wonder if he'd get the message and soon....

Because I really couldn't get into another relationship just yet. Or am I getting ahead of myself ?

The next day I walked alone to school. I felt a tinge of regret but everything is as it should be. I can handle my way of life. I've been doing well so far when others would've giving up. I kept going by making good grades, getting into a great college.

But why am I feeling this way.....

I needed to get my mind right, I thought to myself as I stepped off the sidewalk to across the street when a car almost ran me down. And it would have if I wasn't pulled back by someone.

I turned around to see it was him. I didn't even know what to say.

" Aren't you gonna say thanks. "

" Thank you, " I said in a low voice, walked away but I felt him trailing behind me.

If we weren't going to the same place. I would be thinking all kinds of thoughts but it didn't stop some from coming through. And I wasn't about to do something stupid like turn around to see if he was still there. I'll just keep moving forward, hopefully watch out for any cars.

In class now, listening to my lecture. And glad he decided to sit elsewhere.

The professor began to talk about a project that's set with partners. And I thought " Is this high school, And wondering why he switched from groups to the current. "

Then he went on to assigning partners. Until it was four of us left including that guy. So I prayed that we wouldn't be partnered together.


And to my dismay two more was chosen but he wasn't one of them. So I knew what the professor was gonna say next.

" You two are the last ones so you know what that means, " he give a little chuckle.

Why me ? I thought as he came over to sit down next to me.

" I know that you don't wanna be partnered with me. So I could switch with someone else, " he told me.

Just then the professor chimed in, " No changing partners because you can't choose the people you interact with on the daily basis. So if you're unhappy with my choice. Deal with it, " he announced as he clapped his hands signaling it was the end of the class.

As I walked out the room, I was stopped in my tracks by him asking me to wait. But I wasn't ready to deal with him yet. Was it too much to ask to not be bothered the rest of day.

" Hold on Willa. We need to talk. "


" What is it ? " I asked.


Was I too harsh......


" Okay....can we start over. My name is Alex, " he put his hand out for me to shake smiling nervously.


But he did have an nice smile though.
