Before my next class I head to the bathroom to calm myself down a bit, im not sure why but my heart feels like it's going to come out of my chest, as I was leaving the classroom all I wanted to do was run back to luke and never leave him, I swear im going insane. Once I have splashed water on my face and calmed down a bit I look at the time "great, now im late", so I rush out of the bathroom and head to maths, the class is already there when I rush in and everyone laughs but I don't care "you're late!!!" Mr Fisher snaps "sorry sir I was in the bathroom", I stumble through a quick apology before he replies "I don't care, now find your seat or its detention", so I hurry to an empty seat at the back of the class and pull out my books as Mr Fisher starts droning on about today's lesson but im not really listening, I have an uneasy feeling and that's when I look up and from across the room a pair of bright blue eyes are staring at me, im like a deer in headlights, I can't stop staring back and I didn't realize before but im also holding my breath.
I shake my head and let my hair fall across my face like a curtain to try to hide how my face has turned a deep red, my body has started sweating and im feeling nervous, I can't explain why but the only word that comes to my mind is "PREY" which makes me sweat, even more, just then i take a peek up to see if he's still watching me and I swear he takes a big sniff of the air in my direction, I could have sworn he was smelling me from across the room "haaahaa" I chuckle to myself " is there a problem Miss Jenkins?" Mr Fisher asks looking directly at me "errr no... sorry" I say realizing I had laughed out loud, then i look back over to Luke who now has his head down and is writing making me smile at the idea of a person sniffing another person across a room, it's only when Luke looks up and his piercing blue eyes meet mine
Iv been staying with pops for 3 days now and to be quiet honest its been relaxing, pops is easy to live with, he lives alone in a small two-bedroom house overlooking the sea with deep forests behind the house, its peaceful here nobody to disturb you and pops is happy to just go about his day and leave me in peace. Pops was waiting for me when I turned up, mom had phoned him to let him know i was on my way but he didn't push me to talk see that's the great thing about pops he never pushed, he just let you deal with things in your own way and when you were ready to talk he was there as solid and dependable as ever. "So baby girl, you ready to talk to me yet?" Pops asks coming to sit beside me on the rock on the beach that I had made my thinking place, I look at him and smile then take a deep breath and tell him eve
"Maybe it was a bit too much" "A bit much, did you need to raise yourself to your full height? you looked terrifying" "I was showing her how big and strong we were then I was gonna lick her, I thought it would make her laugh and put her at ease", "Oh is that what you were doing? It looked like you were gonna eat her" "Eat her, of course, I wasn't gonna eat h..." "Hahaha Haha " "What?" "Well now she thinks you're a dog that eats young girls" "Yeah well laugh all you want your the weirdo who brings young girls to feed the dog" "Mmmmmmm po
Moms really pleased to see me when I turn up and pulls me into a warm hug before sitting me at the table and placing a roast dinner in front of me "here I saved this for you sweetheart" she smiles at me then says "I thought you might be hungry, Gem is at her friends before you ask so you'll have to see her later". After dinner I take a shower and get all my books prepared for the next day then I climb into bed to get an early night for school the next day.
Once we reach school and iv parked the car, Gem turns to me "are you sure you're ok?" "Yeah im fine, look Stevies waiting for you," I say pointing to the scraggly boy standing by a tree "Yeah but I can stay with you if you want?" "Hey im fine now get out of my car, ill see you later, love you bye," I say whilst pushing her out of the car "Ok ok, I get it, ill see you later love you too big sis". Once Gem has left I quietly sit in the car
when I finally manage to stop crying I let myself out of the cubical but once I get a good look at the state of my face I just want to hide away and cry again but no I had lessons to get to ..... I was already late for maths again, Mr Fisher was going to be pissed, so I tidied my face as best I could and finally left the bathroom and headed to maths " well lateness seems to be becoming a habit with you Miss Jenkins doesn't it?" "Sorry, sir I was in the bathroom" &n
