Untouched

2: New Girl.

I walk into the big building of my new prep school and instantly all eyes are on me. I try to ignore the obvious fact that all these people know who I am and make my way to the student services room. Once in the student services office I am greeted warmly by EVERYONE in the room, they all bow heads to me and give me a warm smile. The headmaster who I did not notice was in the room has made his way to me and now standing in front of me. The headmaster was a rather handsome man for someone of his age. He is a really tall man with sandy blond hair, dark blue eyes and a scar on his upper lip. He shakes my hand and bows his head to me, he then proceeds to show me towards my locker. He guides me down the hall past all the whispering students,  towards a really big locker. I stare at the locker then look around at all the students staring at me and say "can I please have a normal locker like everyone else?". The headmaster looks at me in shock as more whispering from the students circles. He says to me in a firm but understanding soft tone "Sorry Princess but you are required by school policy to take this locker". I let out a hushed sigh as I turn my lips into a sad expression.  Instantly the headmaster notices my body language and says to me in a hushed, low voice "It will be okay, If you just go with the flow everything will be easy". He hands me my locker key and with that he says goodluck to me and goodbye. I turn back towards my new locker and slip the key into the keyhole to turn it. I start putting my items into my locker, catching a glimpse of the names on the lockers beside mine "Hamilton" and "Laketon" they read. I finish organizing my locker around and close it forgetting to lock it.

I stare at my timetable trying to figure out what all the numbers mean, not noticing a person had appeared by my side. She puts her arm around my shoulders and tells me that her name is Ella Baker and that she is also my tour guide. She grabs my paper of jumbled numbers and words, somehow deciphering it. She mumbles something I can't understand and starts pulling me in the direction of my classroom. She guides me through the door past all the staring students to sit me in a chair in the back row of the class room. "So how you liking Arindal prep so far?" she askes, a curious look on her face. "I don't know, I've been here 20 minutes and I've already been forced into something I don't want and people are whispering about me" I say with a sigh. She lets out a laugh "That's the normal around here, you will get use to it eventually. Welcome to Arindal pre.." She never gets to finish her sentence because a loud voice circles the room and everyone's attention being drawn to the front of the class room. Standing at the black board was a girl who looked to be about 5ft6 with chestnut brown hair and what looked to be deep brown eyes from what I could see from my seat. She started saying her good mornings and the lesson plan before her eyes fell on me, She stared at me for a minute and started talking to me. "What is your name" she askes, like she didn't already know I say in my head. I stand and say that my name is "Celestarial Valentine", she nods her head at me "I'm Ms Blake" she says and turns back to black board to start writing.  My new found friend Ella pulls on my shirt to get my attention "SO PRINCESS, am I good enough to hang out with you?" she says jokingly. I begin to answer her but before I could I was cut off by a females voice yelling "ERIK!". Mine and Ella's heads turn to the classroom door where a very tall male with jet black hair and piercing green eyes was standing. He had his school uniform on in a messy manor and his black tie was done up with little effort.  His first two buttons were undone on his school shirt and his sleves were rolled up. He seemed to have a tattoo on his arm but it was mostly covered up by his shirt.
Ms Blake didn't even seem to care that this boy was 10 minutes late to class, or even notice him. He nodded at the girl without even glancing at her as he then scanned the classroom. His eyes met mine and a cheeky hot smirk played across his lips as he stared at me, causing a sense of deja vu. A minute that felt like hours had past at this point and everyone even the Ms Blake was staring at us and our weird staring match. I heard someone make a coughing noise and that prompted the guy to stride over to his desk and sit down.

The day went by in a blur, I hadn't even wrote more then a single sentence down by the time the final school bell went off. I hurried to my locker to put all my notebooks in with Ella at my side, she let out a loud gasp as she saw how big my locker was. "I wish I had a locker this big, then I could hide my cat in there and no one would ever know! Also being right next to Erik wouldn't be so bad either." she says with a laugh, I laugh as well and tell her she can just have my locker as I don't want it. She offers to walk me home and I agree happily. On the way home we talk about our favorite bands and what after school activities we are interested in. Some how the incident in class with me and that guy locking eyes was brought up. She went on and on about how popular he is and how lucky I was for him to be staring at me like that. "Like what?" I quickly say to her in a curious tone. "Like he just laid eyes on his soulmate" she spits out sounding annoyingly jealous. I laugh and tell her to knock it off "I don't even know the guy, never seen him in my life before". She raised her eyebrow at me as if to say 'sure sure'. I mention the fact that I have a boyfriend and I really had no idea why he was staring at me like that. She didn't press me any further on the matter, though I could tell she had more to say. We continued walking towards my house talking about little things that we like, she asked me about Brayden and I gave as little information as I could, not want to speak about Brayden as I was forced to leave him behind when I moved. We were almost at my street turnoff when we had heard a loud scream that caught mine and Ella's attention. We turned our heads in the direction of the scream and saw two men fighting. I stood there watching the fight i shock, just as other school students on their way home did. One of the guys in the fight I noticed to be the boy from class and the other I did not recognize. No one seemed to be interfering with the fight, it seemed as if no one cared and were all just egging the boys on, until someone pulled the two boys off each other. Standing in the spot Erik had been pulled to was the girl from earlier tightly gripping his arm. He glared at the other student and scanned the crowd, looking around at all the students that had formed in a circle. His eyes lit up when he noticed that I was amongst the crowed. His lips turned up into a smile and he locked his eyes on me. Ella had noticed him smiling at me and pushed me towards him saying "Go on and talk to Erik". Erik had shrugged the girl from his arm off  and started walking to me, His smiling getting bigger as he approached me. I looked to the are he was walking from and couldn't help but notice that the girl who was death gripping his arm earlier was now shooting daggers at me with her eyes. "Hey, Princess. Nice to finally meet you, I've been waiting for this day." Erik says in a cheeky voice. I roll my eyes, laugh and say "Bet you say that to all the girls ey?". His smile fades as he says in a serious voice "No princess, I don't. I have been waiting a long time for this. you have no idea how long I've been waiting for yo.." was all he got to say before the girl from earlier came up and interrupted our conversation. Erik had gotten an annoyed look on his face as the girl spoke "ahem, excuse me. My boyfriend and I have somewhere we need to be" she said in a snarky voice really emphasizing the word "boyfriend". She pulls Erik away by his arm off to her group of friends while he turns his head back to me, giving me a sexy smile. A blush spreads over my face,  Ella notices this "Thought you had a boyfriend, You're totally crushing on Erik!" She says in a loud voice. I look at her and gently punch her arm to get her to stop talking in fear that Erik would hear her "Be quiet Ella" I say with a shocked tone "I do not like him like that, I don't even know him". Ella rolls her eyes and mumbles a "Uh huh, sure sure". I look back to the group Erik was standing in and see him looking my way, shaking his head with a big smile on his face.
