"HOW are you doing, beautiful?" Athena jumped slightly at the voice just behind her. She turned and took a step back. Her back hit the locker. Standing in front of her was Xavier Sullvian. His famous smirk decorated his lips making her nauseous.She smiled weakly and nodded. Her breathing hitched when he took a step towards her caging her body. The tiny hair on the back of her neck stood up as she gulped.
"I will be dropping you to your home from now. That's your father's order. We'll have a. . . lot of fun." Xavier chuckled at her expression and backed away from her. His phone rang displaying the name of some bimbo he f*cked last night. He smirked and walked away.
Athena rubbed her chest slowly. How could her father do that? She felt extremely uncomfortable in his presence and now he would spend a lot of his time with her.
We'll have a. . .lot of fun.
An unpleasant shiver ran down her spine. Her chin trembled as she fiddled with her fingers. Thankfully the bell rang which brought her out of her thoughts. She took a deep breath to calm her nerves and grabbed her books from her locker.
The students began to fill in the classroom. She adjusted her skirt as she sat down. Her friends waved at her. She smiled and returned the gesture. In the corner of her eye, she saw Cecelia sitting on Xavier's lap. She sighed and shook her head.
Xavier was the son of her father's closest business friend. Her father always compared her capabilities to him. Because of his status and name Sebastian wanted her to be his friend. However she knew the real him. He was totally a manwh*re.
She could tell that now he wanted to do the same to her. She gulped down the nauseous feeling and opened her book.
The professor entered the class. Everyone straightened up.
"Good morning class. Hope your vacation was good. Today we have a few new students in this class." Professor Elliot exclaimed adjusting his tie. The few students began mumbling.
"So, Miss. Logan and Mr. Denton please introduce yourself to your class." He pointed out to the two students sitting in the middle of the first row. Athena turned her head to look at the boy and the girl. The girl stood up and cleared her throat.
"Hello everyone. I'm Mia Logon. I like playing sports and reading books a lot. I hope we will be great friends." Mia introduced herself with a confidence. Athena smiled when Mia looked at her.
"And what if no one wants to be your friend?" Ashley asked innocently. Everyone snickered. Mia's smile wavered slightly but then it came back.
"It's okay. I was asking for a geniuine friend not a cake like y- oops I mean not a fake one." She replied sweetly and sat down. The boys in the back hooted clearly impressed by her comeback. Athena bit her lip to stop her smile. She knew Ashley was'nt expecting that.
"That's alright class. Now silenc-" The professors words were cut off when the door of the class bursted open. A boy walked in.
"Pardon me. I'm late." His deep thick voice resonated in the room.
"You must be Mr. Rafaello. Late arrivals are not appreciated here Mr. Rafaello. It's your first day so I am letting you go."Athena watched as his lip twitched slightly before he nodded and walked towards his seat in the back.
"Mr. Rafaello would you like to introduce yourself to the class?" Professor Eliot asked in frustration. Athena turned her head to look at the new boy. His dark intense eyes bore into the professor before he answered.
"No." He said calmly. His eyes challenging Mr. Elliot. The poor professor's frustration flew out of the window as his face became red with humiliation. Everyone snickered. Athena just stared at his features.
His hair was dark as night. His dark thick eyebrows made her jealous. His straight nose and then his plump lips. So red and smooth.
She was too busy in examining him that she didn't notice his dark intense eyes were fixed on her. For a moment she couldn't just look away. There was something deep and sultry in his eyes that made him look very intimidating.
His plump lips twitched into a tummy turning smirk. Athena gasped slightly at getting caught and turned her head at the lightning speed. She winced when the pain shoot up her neck and rubbed her skin. The beautiful blush settled on her cheeks.
She scolded herself and concentrated on the lecture. But the feeling of someone's intense stare on her back made the goosebumps to be appear on her skin. The period ended. Taking all of her things she headed out.
The next two periods went normal. A few scholarship students were also there. But she somehow felt disappointed when she didn't find him. It was the lunch period now. She felt someone's arm dropping on her shoulder.
"Hey Athena!" Brody stone, one of her friends came up behind her. She passed him a smile and greeted him. They reached the cafetetria and took their usual seats. Everyone knew that the whole table was reserved for the popular kids. And Athena was one of them.
Though she called them her friends but deep down she knew they were stick to her boring self just because of her status.
Her attention was caught by a choking Brody beside her. She gasped and handed him the bottle of water.
"Hey, Brody are you alright?" She asked him rubbing her hand on his back awkwardly. Brody's face was red due to choking and fear upon seeing the familiar person entering in the cafeteria.
Saint smirked at Brody's reaction but his smugness was short lived when he noticed the little doe concerned for that f*cker. His fists clenched on his sides.
"Sh*t. What-what is h-he doing here?" Brody sputtered. Athena frowned and followed his line of vision. Her eyes widened when she saw him. He stood tall and confident. Everything about him screamed dangerous.
"Who- who is he to you?" She asked not breaking her eyes away from his stone face. Brody grabbed her hand to get her attention.
"His name is Saint Rafaello and believe me when I say that he is nothing like his name. Saint is dangerous, Athena. Stay away from him." Athena frowned after he finished speaking.
She stared back at the intimidating boy to see him already staring at her. Her cheeks blushed red as she hid behind Brody's big head. Throughout the whole lunch Saint enjoyed his little doe's little sneaky peeks.
The rest of the day went really boring for her. But as day the ended she knew what was coming.
