If I Saw You Earlier

Chapter 2

"How are you doing" his question isn't hard to answer.
"fine" I say with a voice I didn't expect.
" just shut up" I said later.
" ok, just being polite here" his answer now was not as happy as the first one. What did he want? Me to be ok with him kissing other girls. I can't imagine kissing someone else.

Math class ended and English was next. On the third lesson, the principle came in our class.
" you might wonder why I am here today" he said. Of course, we only see him on the first and the last day of school and it's May now.
" I like to introduce a new student to you."
" I bet it's a girl" I heard a guy shout in the back of the class.
" aw, bad luck for you. You just lost your bet, James come in"
James, he looked like a masterpiece. His dark blond hair. His grey eyes. His body. He walked slowly in. As he stood in front of the class. He spoke.
" hi, my name is James, I am 16 and I play football"
His words were simple, and suddenly I wanted to hear more. I looked at him. He had a grey hoodie and jeans. He looked at me for a second then his eyes looked at the teacher.
" well, we all hope you will enjoy your time here with us. Any question, just ask anyone here. You can take a seat next to Alice." the teacher pointed at the empty chair next to me. I don't know why. But I got nervous. He looked nice. He seemed smart, but not too smart. Those smart kids with everything a girl or me looked for.

"Hey, what's this lesson about" he asked me a question! I smiled and said " history".
" let's learn about the dead" he said with a smile. I smiled a little.
" do you want to hang out later?" I can't believe I said that!
" sure, the boys here seem like jerks. And I have my friends, I don't need to get to know them". He said it with a smile again. My mind didn't think I just smiled back.
