mini-series pt 2 : verse T-4

Start from the beginning
                                    

My first class of the day was Quantum Physics. It seemed like the easiest from the explanation, despite the name. I have a small fear in me that I won't understand the subject, and I'll struggle academically. College conversations are going to start soon, and I don't want my mother to worry about anything else.

I was bounding down the stairs and the hallways, desperate to beat the bell. I had already missed the first one, but hopefully, I get there before the late bell. Unfortunately, I'm not a fast runner, and with the added weight of my backpack and the books I was holding, I was running even slower. I made it there maybe 7 minutes late, and the teacher had already started. 

The room was pitch black, I could only see the silhouettes of the people sitting down because of the light from the projector.

"What teacher actually teaches on the first day of school??"  I thought to myself. 

I ducked my head down, and moved into the classroom, trying not to block the screen from anybody. I chose a random row to sit in after seeing the first open seat I could manage from the darkness.  I tried being subtle, not wanting to disrupt when all of a sudden, the video paused, and the standing figure at the back of the room near the projector whose silhouette looked like Megamind spoke in a monotone voice.

" You're late." The female voice sounded. I was surprised that she had said anything about it, it was the first day of school! Through my surprise and embarrassment of being called out in front of a class, I blurted out a sorry before continuing my way to the empty desk I had zeroed on, hearing the video continue behind me.

Once I had sat down, I stuffed all my books into my bag. I looked up to watch the video, a little confused as to what was going on. It was a man in an honestly cool-looking suit, talking about altering his size using what he called Pym Particles. It was quite an interesting thing, and watching him shrink was very fascinating. He was going on about being safe at home, and not attempt what he was doing as he ate orange slices. The silly action made me smile a bit as the video stopped. The teacher walked past me, going to turn on the lights, making me squint. 

Getting a better look at the teacher, she had unruly hair that was thrown up into a bun. She had purple streaks all around, black goggles around her neck, and a white lab coat. She was wearing gloves as well which made me confused. Are we already doing a lab?  My thoughts were interrupted by her saying dreadful words that started a pit in my stomach. 

" I'm assigning a project and your partners are going to be the person behind you! For those of at the back, that is the person in front of you! And if you don't have a person, come talk to me" She said in an uncomforting cheery voice. 

Nobody was behind me.. so that only left the person in front of me. Looking at the back of the person in front of me, he was wearing a colorful sweater. I liked the colors.  He had dark hair that sat on his head almost perfectly, looking styled and placed. Unconsciously, I brought my hand up to brush through my own hair trying to make it less knotted. Seeing as the male's build was bigger than mine, I felt intimidated. Also with the fact that I had to do a project with him. I was busy focusing on his hair when I noticed he started to turn around. I felt my face flush as I averted my eyes elsewhere, not wanting to be caught staring.

"What's your name?" a deeper voice asked. It was an attractive voice, nonetheless. At the question, I looked up to him. He had darker features, thin lips, and tan skin. An attractive to match an attractive person...
