Chapter 5
Alexander's POV

   "Do you wanna see my turtle?" John asked, I could almost hear his smile from here. This man has a turtle. HELL YES I WANNA FUCKING SEE IT.
   "Y-yes" I decided. I pushed whatever anxiety was left. John seemed like a nice guy, I mean he got everyone out of the room.
   "Ok, then you gotta get up!" He sounded cheery now, less concerned. I grunted and sat up.
   "One sec." I should get my keys, just in case. Without turning around I grabbed my bag and pulled out my keys and a hair tie. I gathered my hair into a small, messy ponytail. I huffed and made sure there were no tears. I turned around. John was still standing, we made eye contact. OMG YOU HAVE GOT TO BE FUCKING KIDDING ME. ARE YOU SERIOUS THIS MAN OWNS A TURTLE AND IS CUTE. I DON'T THINK THIS IS LEGAL. I NEED TO CHECK MY FUCKING TEXTBOOK. A lump caught in my throat. He stumbled back and slipped on a paper. He crashed to the ground and I jumped up.
   "JOHN!" Does he hate me is that why he fell? "OH MY GOD, ARE YOU OK!" I rushed over to him and knelt down beside him.
   "I'm fine...just...slipped." He muttered, staring at me like I was an alien. He hates me, he does.
   "I'm sorry, it's my fault." I gushed and plopped down a couple feet away from him. John flipped onto his hands and knees, he crawled over to me.
   "Hey, it's fine. I'm the one at fault, I slipped. You probably think I'm dumb for slipping on paper." He sighed. I sucked down any insecurities I had, I was not gonna let this ray of sunshine be upset. I put a Hand on his knee and we made eye contact.
   "How about we just place the blame on the paper." I smiled, he smiled back and I moved toward the desk. I pulled the drawers open one by one until I found what I was looking for. I grinned and pulled it out.
