VALLEY VIEW HIGH SCHOOL.
Sitting at the farthest end of the assembly Hall, he adjusts his glasses on the bridge of his nose as he watches them stroll into the hall..
They were three in number,all beautiful, charming, exuding confidence...
But they weren't his concern.. His main concern was her..
Hailey Bloom...
Their leader....
He cranes his neck and that's when he sees her entering after them..
She always liked to walk behind...
A smile automatically breaks on his face as he watches her stroll in,her long beautiful legs leading the way...
Her dark lustrous hair braided into an all back cornrow, revealing every contour of her beautiful oval shaped face...
Her pretty brown eyes rolling,scanning the auditorium,probably searching for an empty seat....
****
His gaze was torn off her when he felt himself nudged roughly from his seat as he tumbles onto the floor...
Laughter rang endlessly in his ears as he struggled to find his glasses that had fallen off his face...
"Hey nerdy.. Looking for this?" A deep voice says beside him...
Jason squints his eyes and nods immediately when he realises it was his glasses...
"Here take it"
Jason stretches out his hand to take it only for the guy to pull back..
Again,laughter rang in his ears...
It took him a while to realise they were mocking him.. Making fun of him..
He sighs..
This has been his daily routine at school...
They always made fun of him at the slightest chance they got...
And to make matters worse, they had found out he had a huge crush on the schools most popular girl...
He knew it was impossible to get Hailey to notice him.
They were totally the opposite of each other.
It was like mixing water and oil..
They would never merge..
The oil would always end up on the surface of the water...
Hailey...
He sighs again...
She was every guy's dream.. The kind of girl every one wanted to hung out with...
She was beautiful, intelligent, confident, independent... Name it..
And he,Jason Michaels had always admired her from afar...
"Hey nerdy!!!"someone screams,jolting him out of his reverie.
"Give me back my glasses please" he says in exasperation..
"Give him the glasses Jack" a female voice commands and he notices the owner of the voice immediately.
He didn't need to see her face before recognizing her. He had imprinted her voice in his brain.
He could feel his teenage heart beating loudly against his chest as she knelt him,giving him his glasses...
"Here" she says softly..
Jason takes it and puts it on immediately...
He stares at her and gives her his best smile
"Thank you"
Hailey doesn't smile back.. She gets up,brushes dirt away from her skirt and begins to walks away..
His heart sunk but he doesn't give up.. Not now.. Not when he had finally managed to have her this close....
He gets up and rushes out after her..
It was dark outside but luckily there were no teachers supervising because usually it was a Friday. And teachers don't usually supervise prep on weekends.
"Hailey wait!" He calls out...
****
Hailey frowns when she hears her name. She stops walking and turns,waiting for her caller to catch up. Whoever it was needed to make it fast else she was going to snap any moment...
