One last try / Jenna Ortega

Chapter 3

Jenna's Pov:
(8:45 am)
We were waiting on the last 2 people
to join us when a ginger haired overweight dork plopped on the seat next to Ria, Alana's eyes widened in annoyance, Jess and Claire were gossiping of course and Ria was trying to hide her laugh

"which one are you?" Jess asked while furrowing her eyebrows expecting a "cute boy" but instead getting this, "Goldwynn" the boy smiled showing off his braces, "ok.." Claire stared him down in disgust, i exhaled while looking at the door when they walked in

"he's in your class!!?" i hissed at Alana who was sitting next to me while covering my face, "oh shit is he?" Alana worried while looking at Ria, Ria just smiled in response, the "sleepy guy" was in my Alchemy class and was making his damn way over to my desk, what is happening? Why do i feel what i feel?

"Hey bud!!!!" the dork waved overly loud while he was approaching us, "you're sitting with us today!" he cheered with a huge smile, what?, "oh wait you're the sleepy guy!" Claire ranted, Jess kicked her leg under the table while i widened my eyes signaling her to stop, "am i..?" he spoke, and i was lost

my head turned so fast, my eyes were now glued on them observing every part and detail on him, they were so inviting to look at and my eyes rested upon the view of him, "i mean its cause of the eye bags you know" Jess chuckled nervously while scratching the back of her head, while i was watching his every single move, the way they sat the way they chatted, everything

"oh yea i get that a lot" he replied with such dryness and no expressions on his face, chill almost, very unbothered, "Mr Bludd we're pleased u joined us" the teacher ironically started, "alright on your desks you have your equipment, acid, microscope, the frogs in the back desks and don't worry they are dried out which means no blood, and trash, please manage who is gonna do what, 2 people each" the teacher demanded while taking a seat

"what's that on your face?" Claire pointed out while confused, "the fuck is wrong with you" i whispered yelled across the table shooting a very angry look at the dumb blonde, "it's all good, i got burned on one side of my face and it left a scar" he said now turning his face and tugging his shirt down a bit to show us, it started from his ear going down to his jaw and stopped at his shoulder, it was all burned

my lips slightly parted as i was focused on him, why do i feel like this? "cool" Ria nodded with a dumb smile, "it doesn't hurt does it?" Alana joined with a question, "not anymore no" he assured with the slightest expression on his face, "ok who's gonna do what?" Jess snapped us back into the original subject

"wanna do trash with me Alana?" Ria winked with a smile as Alana blushed, they're totally into each other, "um sure" Alana shrugged with a cute smile, "we'll take acid" Claire claimed with Jess, "i don't mind the frog" i offered with a side shrug, "ugh ew Jenna" Jess was clearly uncomfortable with it calling me out in front of everybody

"ok girl but you can't do it alone" Alana ordered, "oh Leo this is your kind of stuff man!" the dork blurted out while nudging his bicep, "yes it is" the sleepy guy responded, Leo? Does that mean it's a he? Why am i so damn invested anyway? "would you like to do it with me?" they asked me while slightly raising his eyebrow, i lost all my words then and started to feel some sort of butterflies in my stomach going up to my chest..

(TW sharp objects ⬇️)

my face started heating up and my eyes were burning on him, "sure" i spat out while quickly standing up to walk to the back desks where the frogs were lined up, i rushed and sat down in one of the empty seats, as i started to search for the cutting tool, i stopped out of nowhere, my body wouldn't obey me as i waited for him to join me, what the fuck is happening to me.
