Chapter 1
Haylie’s POV
“I cant believe this will be our last quarter of grade twelve” Nadia my best friend since we were little, said while lying on my bed. “I know right, I cant wait to see Richard. I hate to see him with Corlia. I can’t stand her she always glares at me. I will make him fall for me even if it’s the last thing I do” I say. “Haylie, you are going to be late if you don’t leave now.” My mother yelled form downstairs “Okay mom” I reply, I look at myself in the mirror while crabbing my backpack. As we enter the kitchen my mother gives a kiss on the cheek. Nadia climbs in the passenger seat . She is tall with a tiny body, blond with blue eyes and a fair skin. I am Haylie Lovet. Long black hair, emerald green eyes with a body any girl would kill for. I am popular and I get along with everyone. Exept for Corlia. She hates me and I hate her. Many guys adores me but I only have eyes for Richard my secret crush since tenth grade. My goal is to win his heart. So he will be mine completely.
Five minutes later we drove into the parking lot. I parked my car into its usual spot. That’s when I saw him. The most handsome of them all. He is one of the most popular boys in school. (One year and 8 months ago) “Do you see anyone you like?” Nadia ask while looking around “Nope” taking the last sip of my cosmopolitan “I’m going to get another drink” walking to the bar I turn around and ask “Do you want anything?” “No thanks I’m still full” She said I turn around when I suddenly bump into someone. I look up into his beautifull brown eyes. I was lost for words. My heart was raising so fast I could hear it in my chest. We stood there for a few seconds just staring into each other’s eyes. Until Corlia came along and bumped me out of the way. I turned to leave but he grabbed my arm and I stopped.
I turned back to look at him but Corlia grabbed his arm and pulled him away. I stare after them until they where lost in the crowd. (Current time) ” We need to go if we don’t want to be late for first class which is English” she says Just as we sit down and settle in HE walks in. I froze and couldn’t take my gaze off him. Its like magnetic power as he looked up and stared right at me. I gave Nadia a little nudge underneath the table. ” What’s going on with you today?” She asked smiling and then looked at the direction my eyes was fixed on. He’s got strong build muscles with Black hair and looks that will make any girls knees weak .
By then Richard has sat down in one of the middle rows in class, next to Darren Stanley. His best friend. “Thank Goodness Corlia isnt in this class, now nothing can stop me from staring at him” I say happy with myself. ” Really Haylie, when are you going to get the guts and talk to him already? All you ever do is stare at him.” She turns and look at the two boys in the middle row. “I know, I know, its just hard ok. Its just when I see him, its like I freeze in one place and cant move. I don’t know why he has this effect on me” I say looking at her and back to the boys. Mr Smith comes in and all students go quiet. He begins with the lecture and I try my hardest to concentrate. I feel some strange pull from the front and when I look up he stares at me.
I look down and pretend to do something in my book. When I look up again, he flashes me the most gorgeous smile I have ever seen him give anyone. I try to focus and then someone taps me on my shoulder and gives me a note. “Hi there Haylie. Will you please meet me at the rugby field this afternoon after school?” I show Nadia the note. The only thing that bothers me is there is no name. So who the hell am I meeting after school. I look around to see if someone is watching us but nothing. “I wonder who wrote i” she whispers in my ear. “I am not sure, only one way to find out. After school it is then” I say English class couldn’t be over fast enough. Nadia and myself sat on the pavilion waiting for the rest of the students to arrive for gym class.
We were a bit early. Looking down into the crowd I spotted him. As he walked closer I felt the pull again. I just cant put my mind to it. What could this pull mean? Richard and Darren was walking alongside each other making some sort of joke with Corlia not far behind with her friend Ashley. That’s actually weird as Corlia is always walking beside Richard when they have class together. I wonder what is up with that. I looked at Nadia and whisper to her ” You see why I say something isn’t place.
Corlia is always beside Richard, now all of a sudden she is walking behind him with Ashley. Something is just not in place here. I felt the pull again when he got closer.” Nadia’s eyes was fixed on Richard and Darren. “I see what you mean that is definitely weird.” she says looking down at them. As all of the students began to settle down on the pavilion, I couldn’t find Richard or Darren. I thought to myself that maybe they sat at somewhere else because I couldn’t feel the pull that strongly anymore. Then all of a sudden Darren was next to Nadia. Surprised was flashed all over her face. That’s when I felt the strong pull behind me. I feel him touch my hair. It was like lightning through my entire body. I froze in the spot to take in this feeling. It was magnificent, as though I couldn’t get enough of it. I closed my eyes to absorb the feeling and then all of a sudden it was gone. I knew he took away his hand. That’s when I feel his mouth close to my ear. “So will you meet me after school?” I feel a slap across my cheek “What the hell?”
