The Bad Boy and the Nerd

C h a p t e r t h r e e

Charlotte's POV.

To be honest I was quite surprised, astonished, amazed, dazed, whatever you wanna call it,seeing Landon in the Gym was quite a surprise but, I get loads of people who come from my school, and I bet that a guy like Landon does go to gym, I mean look at him! Look at him closely and you will see those hard abs and biceps and triceps. To be honest again you don't get a body like that magically or biologically. You can get the handsomeness and the cuteness but you cannot get the muscle without training.

"Landon! He is the new member!" I asked to James who was standing beside me. He was handsome but a cute type of handsome, he wore a cap backwards, his hair used to be long but when we both had a sleepover, well I couldn't help but prank on him. By prank I mean cut his hair that was as long as my grandma's gingerbread house that she made for Christmas. Anyways his hair was cut short, he was wearing black sweat pants and t-shirt that said 'work hard!' On it.

"Yup!" He chirped out. When Landon came over to me, I awkwardly smiled at him. He grinned at me, man! He looked awesome, "hey Charlie, you come here too?" Landon asked, "actually-" before I could finish James cut me mid sentence. "Her mom is the coach and right now she is busy so we both are the assistant coaches" James said disdainfully, well, by the looks of it, he looked disdainful too. I looked at him, with raised eyebrows, I gave him the 'well someone's jealous' look. He shrugged at it and went off to speak with other people. Weird, he only becomes like this when he sees me with a boy and there are thousands of boys over here!

I looked back at Landon, he had an obvious frown on his face, I smiled innocently at him and held out my hand, "welcome to fitness gym Landon, I Charlotte Ashton marks am your substitute coach well I will be your trainer or coach until my mom comes, but now you have to refer me as coach, refer me as Charlie only if we are outside the gym, alright?" I said with confidence. He nodded, "sure coach" he said. "Good, now tell me have you trained before?" I asked. He nodded once again "I have been trained before and you don't have to have mercy on me, go on with your usual trainings and I will follow you" he said grinning. "Okay then" I said as I ran and stood on the center of the gym. "Okay! Everyone listen up! We're gonna start now! Please take your places!" I shouted as everyone followed me and stood in their places.

James stood beside me. I started off with some jumping jacks, then squats and then crunches, then abdominal crunches. I started giving them a full body workout. I usually did this, and that's why I didn't breath hoarsely or unevenly. I was taking short glances at Landon who was following me. He didn't look worn out or anything. Except that everyone else  looked exhausted. I gave them a five minute break and then told them to start cardio exercises.

"You have to run on the treadmill, at the speed of 8 for at least 10 minutes Stacy" I said to Stacy who looked really tired. She nodded and started running on the treadmill. Maybe I'm being too harsh on her. I shook my head and started making rounds checking if everyone was doing things properly. My eyes flicked to Landon who was at the corner of the room, weightlifting. I think I wasn't just looking at him, I was staring or gaping at him, and maybe gaping a little longer than I should have been because he noticed me and smirked, I quickly looked away, this is awkward.

After completing all my works in the gym. I was about to leave, I was tired, I needed a shower, and then I have to go to rose's house to check up on her. She and I have been friends from when we weren't even potty trained. I know crazy right but still, she is my best friend. I heard someone call my name from behind, I looked behind and there stood Landon.

"Yeah what's up?" I asked he smiled at me, "what are you doing afterwards?" He asked. "Well I'm going home and I'll freshen up and then I have to go see my best friend who's sick" I said he nodded. "Then can I come with you to visit your friend and we can spend some time" he said and I raised my eyebrows. "Uh okay but you will have to shower cause rose hates sweaty people, you know what, you go to your house and I'll go to mine and I'll text you her address we'll meet there, deal?" I said and he nodded. "Deal" he said and I smiled widely.
