THEM

Two

Yeah, Mr Weird Stalker dude was in my class. As a teacher !

"This is Mr Xander Pierson. He'll be your subs teacher for the next two weeks. He just moved in from..."

"Thank you Mr Willis. I'll take it from here." Mr Xander said. "Hi class, there's no need for too much formality coz the older ones amongst you are basically my age, so everyone here can call me Xander. I'll be your history teacher for the next two weeks so I'd like to know your names."

He scanned the class as though he was looking for something

Or someone.

His eyes fell on me and I could have sworn he smirked.

"Let's start with you, Dark Beauty"

I cringed at his open flirt. I secretly rolled my eyes at him.

Jerk

"Hannah Ripley."

He gave me a light smile.

"Well," the principal cleared his throat. Everyone had forgotten that he was still in the class. The girls were too busy fangirling over Xander.

I mean he was handsome. He was very
hot. Like Greek God kinda hot

" Since you seem to get along excellently. I'll leave you to your lesson. Bye class."

"Bye Mr Willis."

Xander turned to us with a grin.

"Let's have some fun, shall we? Let's start with a little debate on religious history."

************************************

The class ended on an unexpectedly lively note. He explained everything that was in doubted clearly. That was basically the best history class ever. But he stressed a lot on demons though. Like he knew a lot about them.

I guess the whole stalker thing was a figment of my imagination. It was probably just a coincidence that I saw him the other and the whole mind pulling thing was just me.

I watched too many horror movies anyways.

I reached my locker to change my books when I heard something.

"Oh Xander, do you really have to leave so soon. I mean, you're such a great teacher. You made history class so interesting today."

It was Marisa's annoying voice. She was trying to sound...
Flirty?

I saw her talking to Xander. Twirling her hair as if to hypnotize him to fall madly for her.  He had a bored smile on his face.

I tried to pass by them to get to my next class. But, life is such a bitch.

"Hey, Hannah." Xander called. "Could you please show me to the teachers lounge. Please."

I was clearly annoyed because he was pulling me into drama I wasn't prepared for.

" Sorry Mr. Pierson. I have to ... Um... Get to class. Gotta go. Plus I'm sure Marisa would be delighted to." I said. Trying to run away.

"I would prefer if you called me Xander. I'm only 22 anyways."

" Okay Mr Pier.... I mean Xander."

" Yes, Neg... I mean Hannah here is absolutely right. I'd be extremely glad to lead you to the teachers lounge."

"It's okay.", He said." I wouldn't want to disrupt your studies. Please carry on ladies.

I turned away. Mr Xander went the other direction. Marisa just stood there.

Life was getting wierder by the nanosecond. And it wasn't pretty.

************************************

  School was finally over and I headed to Cindy's school to go pick her up when a car started to slow down beside me. I tried to move faster but long legs don't outwalk tyres.

The windows  rolled down to reveal  Xander staring at me.

"Where are you headed?" he asked.

"I'm gonna pick my little sister up."

What does he care

"Let me take you there."

"Nah, I prefer walking. What's the use of long legs if you can't work them out."

" You're serious right now?"

" If you'll excuse me. My sister is waiting."

With that I walked out of there as fast as I could.

Hey honeys...

Yes, I took a long time to publish because of personal stuff. This chapter is prolly a disappointment. Must be very boring.

Trust me. It was way more boring to write than to read.

Anyways pls comment and vote. Means a lot.

Yours forever,
Erica
