Dilara

Chapter 2:

'Everyone welcome Dilara Cesaire.' My English teacher Mr Thompson says. 'You can sit next to Adriano.'

I make my way to my new seat and take out my things for the lesson.

I look at Adriano. Holy shit! He looks so much better up close. I can see some tattoos peeking through the sleeve of his hoodie. Four silver rings wrap around his fingers. His jaw is so sharp and I can smell Dior Sauvage coming off him.

I expect him to introduce himself to me. Not that I need it, it would just be basic manners. He acts as if I don't exist.

I notice him adjusting his hips to get comfortable on the chair.

Fuck that's hot.

'Ok, today we will be annotating 'A midsummers nights dream' by Shakespeare.' Mr Thompson says. 'Zoe give out the plays.'

She gets up and pushes my pencil case to the floor as she walks past me. Little bitch. I get out of my seat to pick it up.

She puts two plays on my table and glares at me.

'Are you coming to my Halloween party?' She asks Adriano batting her eyelashes.

'I wasn't invited.' He says with a bored expression.

Damn, I didn't expect his voice to be that deep.

'Well, you and your siblings can come.' She says walking off.

I open the play up and a guy comes around giving us a pack of sticky tabs.

I write a key on the inside of the cover of my book.

Pink - important quotes
Yellow - metaphors
Green - similes
Purple - character development

'For homework, you all need to read Act one.' Sir says.

I look over at Adriano, he still acting as if I don't exist.

'I'm Dilara.' I say sticking my hand out in front of him. I see his jaw clench.

'What makes you think you can talk to me?' He snarls.

I'm shocked by how rude he is. I guess looks are deceiving.

'Excuse me?' I say raising my eyebrow. 'Someone woke up with an attitude.'

'Do you know who I am?' He asks.

'No, and I don't really care if I'm being honest.' I snap.

'Dilara, Adriano be quiet.' Mr Thompson says.

'You little-' Adriano starts as he turns around to me.

'Little what?' I snap glaring at him.

'Adriano, Dilara detention!' Mr Thompson says.

Great on my first day too.

I turn around and face the board. I can feel Adriano staring at me but I ignore him. I start copying the notes that are now on the board.

*********
'I can't believe you spoke to him like that!' Alara exclaims. I told her about what happened.

'He's a dick.' I snap. 'Zoe also invited him to her party.'

'She invited Kai too, but he said he'll only go if we go.' Carlos says.

'If all of us go.' Diana says looking at me. 'So you're coming.'

'But-' I start.

'That's final.' She says. I sigh in defeat.

'When's the party?' I ask.

'Saturday,' Aiden says closing his locker. 'I've got to go meet Kai at basketball practice I'll see you all tomorrow.' He starts walking towards the gym.

'We'll get our costumes tomorrow.' Alara says.

'I have to go to detention.' I sigh.

'Detention on your first day.' Carlos says. 'That sucks.'

'I know.' I sigh. 'I'll see you all tomorrow.'

I walk away from them and head to my English classroom. I open the door and see that Adriano is already there.

'I expected better from our new student,' Mr Thompson says.

'Sorry sir, it won't happen again.' I reply.

I walk to a seat at the back of the classroom and take out my book. I'm going to catch up on some reading during this time.

'I'm going to the office, I'll be back.' Mr Thompson says. He leaves the room and I start reading my book.

A shadow looms over me and I look up to see Adriano standing in front of me.

'What do you want?' I ask annoyed. I'm not in the mood for his bullshit.

'No one speaks to me like that.' He says.

'Ok, what's your point?' I ask.

'Especially not a posh bitch who came from a private school.' he continues. I stand up.

'I guess you've heard about me too.' I say.

'Yeah the whole school was talking about you.' he replies.

I try and move around Adriano so I can sit somewhere in peace. He pushes me and my back hits the wall. I see him take something out of his waistband and he presses it against my throat. I look down and see a knife. The cold metal of the blade sends chills through my body.

His face comes close to me and I look into his gorgeous grey eyes. Fucking hell he's hot.

'Is it a bad time to say I have a knife kink?' I ask. 'So this is really hot.'

He looks at me shocked. But he doesn't look half as shocked when I bring my knee up and hit him in the balls. He steps back in pain and I punch him. I rub my neck, where the blade was.

He looks at me, a sinister smirk plays onto his lips, sending shivers through my body.

'I don't usually hit girls.' He says as he walks towards me, spinning the knife between his fingers.

'Neither do I, but I think I'll make an exception.' I say smirking.

He lunges towards me with his knife, but I grab his arm before it could touch me. He goes to punch me and I dodge.

'Awww missed me,' I laugh. I twist his arm behind his back and take the knife out of his hand. I push him to the wall and his face connects to the wall. I put the knife against his lower back.

'One cut and I could make you disabled.' I snarl pressing it harder.

'Get off me,' He grunts. He swings his head back and it hits me in the face.

I step back dazed and touch the blood now coming out of my nose. I wipe my nose with the back of my hand. He grabs my throat and pins me to the wall. He takes the knife out of my hand and throws it across from us. He presses his lower body onto mine, keeping me trapped.

'I wasn't going to kill you.' Adriano says. 'I just wanted to give you a little scare.'

'You're a fucking psycho.' I snarl.

'Takes one to know one.' He replies. I push him off me.

'Fuck you.' I say walking to the front of the room.

'You're fun when you're pissed off.' He laughs. I throw up my middle finger and walk out of the room and make my way to the bathroom to clean up.
