chapter four

"Evielynn Williams,if you don't wake up right this moment there will be no breakfast for you."

The cover was yanked off my body when I opened my eyes,still feeling sleepy like hell.

"Mm..just a minute mom."

I tried to grab onto the pillow with all my might,but to no avail when it was snatched away from me.

"I made brownies for breakfast. If you're late..."

That had me up in no time.

There's nothing I love more than food, that was a dirty trick mom but aw well,there's no greater temptation than brownies.

After I was done with breakfast, I was late for school and missed the bus.

As always.

By the time I finally dropped in my desk,I was thoroughly exhausted and..you guessed it,late.

"Wait for me at the end of the class." The teacher scowled at me.

"Sir yes,Sir!"

I saluted at him,making the class go into another round of hysterics as I dropped into my chair.

"You really are trouble."

I winked at Cal who shook his head at me before concentrating in his lesson.

"We are supposed to have a transfer student. Who is late, in his first class."

Whoever the transfer student is,has my deepest sympathy. He is gonna be scolded in the first day.

"May I come in, sir?"

There was a brief silence that spread across the literature class when the newcomer finally arrived.

You're in trouble, newcomer,thought I

In that moment, everyone's head turned toward the grey hooded figure at the doorway.

Wait..Grey hoodie.

That's the guy who bumped into me that day!

I grinned. This ought to be fun.

"Come in,Ray...I don't seem to remember your surname."

"It's just Ray,sir."

"Doesn't matter what your name is. You're late in your first class." The teacher made a dissatisfied face as the newcomer..Ray didn't seem to make any efforts to put off the hood.

Interesting.

"This is no fashion show where you get to be a wannabe mysterious person. Put that hood off."

Uh-oh.

But to mine,n everyone else's surprise, instead of putting it off he went straight for the teacher.

"What is he doing? Is he a idiot?" I whispered at Cal who looked just as baffled as the dude stepped right in Mr.Red's face and shoved his hoodie off his head revealing a head full of dark brown hair.

I thought, not bad,not bad at all, as my eyes travelled down his broad shoulder that looks well built, even with the baggy hoodie on,lean hips and okay..he has a nice body.

Let's not go there, Evie.

"I'm sure you won't object to wearing hood,sir. I'm not willing to keep it down."

I felt my mouth drop to the ground,along with all the students' as the incident occurred.

No one in class A had had the balls to go against Red('cept me ofcourse),and I could not help the grin that spread over my lips.

I don't know whether from astonishment or anger,but Red looked completely baffled as he shook his head twice before stuttering out 'go take your seat'.

And with that,dude pulled his hood back up before facing us and started coming right in my direction..

Did he recognize me somehow, I wondered for just a moment before he passed by me and dropped into the empty desk behind me.

What the hell, sharing a look with Cal,I dropped back in my seat.

"I'm sorry for the inconvenience, class. Lets Carry on with the lesson. Page 156."

I was busy digging my book out of my back when I noticed someone poking me in the back.

Um..what?

For a moment, I considered ignoring him,but of course, my curiosity got the best of me and I threw a questioning glance at him before concentrating on my studies..or pretending to,whatsoever.

"It's going to be a interesting time."

A gasp left my lips,totally involuntarily when I heard the raspy whisper right beside my ear and then it was gone.

what does he even mean? What game?

For the rest of the class,I just stared at my books wondering,what have I gotten myself into.
