The trouble maker

Chapter - 7

Taylor and her mates made sure everyone knew about what happened at the demi-god's room. And now I somehow became everyone's topic of the day, hundreds of eyes followed me everywhere I go, whether I sit, or eat or study or simply walk, I could never be alone anymore, and I hate it. There were noises everywhere which I hate more than anything else.

We can simply state that my mates had literally gone mad or so, William was the only human left for me, nobody could believe how Alex let go of Taylor, or what he asked of me, and seriously, I myself still doubt what happened. It was too simple and reckless, based on what I had heard of the demi-god's reputation and what they used to do to others, it didn't make any single sense.

I could not even eat my lunch in peace, so many questions were thrown at me even when I myself did not have an answer for it, if they were that curious, why not just go and ask Alex? He was the main reason for everything that happened. And why go after me who simply helped someone who was bullied?

I guess because that's how the school works, nay the whole world, the rich and popular have their way and are untouchable, they did everything they desire, bully the weak and befriend the high-class people, they spit harsh words without thinking for a second how their hateful words might affect others. They attend school when they feel like it, and don't when they don't feel like, they even have a special room in school just for them? Seriously?

They had everything since they were born, they were born with a silver spoon, never had to struggle for anything, never had to look at the price before buying anything, and worst, these reckless bastards had good looks, this made me hate them more. They were blessed with literally everything, good wealth, and good looks, yet even for a single second, they could not be thankful for everything they have and still bully others? Others who were weaker than them, others who tremble at their voice, how unfair is this world?

Everyone worshipped them because they were afraid of them, how do I engage myself with such ungrateful humans? Especially that Alex, he was the main core for everything.

I knew he was trouble, and I promised myself I would do everything to never cross paths with him ever again.

"You don't know how afraid I was while you were in there!" Toni shouted at my ears, "I was thinking of all the things they could do to you, and I almost fainted."

"I came out alright, did I not?" I looked at him with an annoying face, he didn't stop rattling about Alex for the whole ass day and now we were having our last class and he still would not stop.

My ears were full of the name Alex, Simon, and Levi for the whole day and seriously I think my head was going to explode by the end of the day.

Our English class was no better, I yawned and put my head on the desk, closing my eyes, if I get at least a little minute of sleep, maybe I would feel better, I thought.

Before I could even close my eyes for more than 30 seconds, I heard a loud bang on the door, indicating that someone came in, but I was too sluggard to look up and see who it was, and I carried on trying to fall asleep.

"Get up." I heard a voice, and it sounds oddly familiar. But my head was too numb to figure out who it was, all I could figure out by the two little words spoken by the person was that it was cold, as if the person who said it had no soul at all. And the following sound I heard was someone getting up from a seat, the sound was coming from around me, and for a spit second, I halfway open my eyes to squint at my environment when my half-closed eyes met someone, I was not expecting at all. Both my eyes were shot open.

I sat up straight, looking at the person who sat beside me.

"It looks like Mr. Bilimoria is joining us for this class, great, now I shall continue with the lesson." Said our English teacher.

I believed everybody's eyes were set on me that time, but I could not feel them, the only eyes I could feel was his.

"What do you want?" I asked him, annoyed. I seriously don't need another rumour to be spread about me, I had enough for one day.

"Do you rent the classroom?" He asked me. I raised my eyebrows as I did not understand what he meant by that particular question.

"I'm also a student of this school, and there's nothing wrong if I sit in one of the school's chair, is there?" He smirked, and God, How I wish to swipe off that evil smirk of his that time.

I looked away from his gaze.

I could not even concentrate on the lecture anymore, not that I had any intention of listening, but I was too bothered by his gaze, not just his, everyone's.

As I sat in the back, everyone turned back every second to look at us.

"Seems like these boys could not stop looking at you." He murmured.

I tried to ignore the fact that he was talking to me, just like everybody would try to avoid trouble in their life, I was trying my best.

"Especially that boy in the corner," He pointed at someone, and my eyes followed his fingers and I spotted one boy, with red hair, he looked away from me as soon as he noticed that I turned my gaze at him.

He sighed, "It's not going to be good for them." He said in a whisper tone, but I felt like he was saying that to himself and not me.

"Why? What evil are you plotting again? Is it a sin to look at me?" I shot furiously.

He looked at my eyes, and damn, his eyes, they were dangerous. If I didn't know better, I would believe the devil himself was looking at me through Alex's eyes.

"Yes." He slammed the desk, not so loudly but it was enough to startle me. "It is a sin for everyone except me to look at you, or to even breath around you."

The bell rang, and he stood up, I was still filled in with confusion, "Remember that." He said and left.
