One

I was holding my book to my chest covering the very evident stain which was splattered across my top right above my bust. I was annoyed at myself as I hastily opened my locker and searched for that one top I keep for emergencies. 

The sudden force of a heavy back coiled with my back making me fall ahead with my stomach colliding with the end of the locker. I wince looking back and suddenly the entire hall which was filled with students became quiet. 

My mouth sucked in a sharp breath as I see Kaden. I felt my heart stop as he hands his friends stared at me. I wanted to just lock myself in the locker as he realized he bumped into me. 

"Uh-" He was about to talk when I grabbed my shirt slammed shut the locker door and turned towards the end of the hall and bolted, or I can say I tried. Before I could leave that popular group of friends I was grabbed by my hand so hard, I basically flew back into his chest. 

I let out a slight shriek as I bumped into him my hand catching the book I held on my chest which almost fell down. 

"I am sorry," He said making me nod once. His hand didn't leave mine as I struggled to cover my stained shirt. 

"I think I saw you in my class-" He said.

"Don't scare her bro" His friend said as they laughed. He chuckled looking back at me. 

"I am not scary, Am I ?" He asked, I just looked away. 

Our college didn't have the stereotypes they showed in shows on N*****x or TV. But every college has the popular kids type. He was that. The popular guy every girl liked. He was liked by the teachers even cause he was pretty rich and very nice. Only to the girls. He was the playboy who slept with three girls with no relationships with either of them.

He was very handsome. And he somehow made me very uncomfortable. Although I never got the bad vibes from him. I was not the talking type of girl, So he made me super nervous especially with his friends, and some people looking at us. 

"Uh- I have to go" I soft and sternly said as he frowned. I saw it from my peripheral view as I looked at the end of the hallway.

"Were you hurt? What's that?" He asked his hand reaching for the book which I pressed against my bust and my body almost jumped as he harshly pulled it back. I felt exposed. And embarrassed. I could feel my clumsy hands shake as he stared at my chest. 

"Is that blood?" He asked as his friends suddenly came over to loom over me. I covered myself shaking my head even more embarrassed since his eyes were basically over my chest. 

"N-no, it's just cranberry juice. I have to go" I said, he immediately let go of my hand and I walked away as fast as I could towards the girl's bathroom. 

I took my time to wash it off my chest I had another ten minutes till the break ends. I sigh pulling my shirt over my bra and staring at my chest. I always carried a napkin with me, So I go wash and dry that sticky stain of juice over my chest, I was glad my bra didn't get as wet. 

But I could see the faint black color of my bra through the shirt under the strong white light of that mirror. But As I could just carry some books in my hand to solve that problem. 

I walked out of the bathroom happy and stuffed the stained top in my bag zipping it. 

"Hey" 

"Oh my gosh!" I jumped turning my back at that manly voice and rubbing my heart beating super fast giving making me a nervous wreck. 

"Sorry, didn't mean to scare you. I was just making sure you were alright" I looked at Kaden nodding, I didn't give him a smile but I was appreciative of his worry. 

"Oh, no I am alright" He nodded, his eyes looking over my shoulders to a girl behind me and he waved me a quick goodbye before she walked over to him giving me a quick glance and walking away with him. 

I was soon walking across the hallways to get to my class when I saw him walking in my direction. I felt weird as I almost immediately looked at the ground. But through that five seconds of my gaze on him, I saw how disheveled his hair was, with two buttons of his shirt undone. 

I saw his hand run through his hair as I knew he clearly saw me but I never bothered thinking about it, getting inside the class I made my way towards my usual seat and sat down. That seat was neat on the wall, somewhere in the middle of the row, Where the teacher could clearly see the students if they used phones.

But I never care about it. It was very shocking and confusing when I felt the chair beside me scrape and a heavy body sitting in it. Although the class was full, the back seats were open.  

But it just made me put my guard on as our Teacher walked in and started her presentation on a particular which I started noting down although I didn't understand one thing. 

The writing distracted me, It was enough. 

"Primrose" I froze, my pen almost slipped out of my hand. 

"What?" I whispered staring at my book. I could very well see his head in my direction with his eyes on my hands. 

"Your name is Primrose?" I softly glanced at him. Relaxing. Anyone can get your name by just looking at the lists the teacher passes for various activities. Plus, I wasn't a complete loner. I had some girls I talked to. It was easy to find anyone's name. 

I took my lip under my mouth, releasing it immediately as I remembered I had lip gloss on. 

"Um- yep" I answered going back to writing, "Oh, You know Emma Lenoir?"  I creased my eyebrows in slight confusion and look at him. 

"Ya, I do, But-how-?" I asked as he nodded smirking and leaned back in his seat. I stare at him for a second before looking at the teacher who was now busy looking in her notes as everyone sat copying the notes she presented over the board. 

I blinked twice before glancing twice at him. "Um- How you know Miss Emma Lenoir?" I asked and he smiled. 

"You'll know soon." He said. We sat in silence till the teacher left and everyone made their way out of the class. He stood up but I leaned back as he pushed his face near mine. Too close. 

"Welcome to the family" 

I stare at him in utter confusion as he walked out the door.
