The Tomboy Girl : Chapter 01

Chapter 1:

Alex's POV

I arrived at school skating as usual, I live 20 minutes away from school and I didn't feel like taking the bus full of people that I didn't want to see or be with so I take my skateboard. This year is finally my senior year at McCartney High. I took my schedules out of my bag and look at it, I only have four classes this year first Chemistry, then Math, next PE and finally French after lunch period. Looking more carefully I see that I have a new French teacher called Miss Hayes, I hope that she is nice. I went to my locker putting my board in it and then walked my way to first period chemistry. I arrived in front of the class the door was open but it was only 7:45 am and class doesn't start before 8:00 am and I didn't want to enter in the class and sit down alone with the teacher in there. I took my phone out plug my earphones and put on some music while playing to some game on my phone until the hallway start to getting full of students. When the first bell ring I enter in the classroom took my sit in the 2nd row next to the window and wait for the class to start.

The first and second period flew by rather quickly, now here I was in the locker room with a bunch of other girls of my class I didn't really bother to remember their names I'm quite the lone wolf here. After I finish changing which basically took 5 minutes I got into the gym and sat down on the bleachers waiting for Coach Smith to give us something to do. After everyone was there Coach Smith made us do some laps and other running exercise. I actually love PE it calmed me down. The bell rings and put me out of my thought. I didn't really felt like changing for the last period so I stayed in my sweatpants and grabbed my bag to head to my last period French. Since I packed a sandwich for lunch this morning I didn't bother to go to the cafeteria and just ate it as I walked towards my French classroom. I arrived in front of the door and saw that it was locked so I waited until I saw a brunette girl struggling with a lot of files in her arms. I went towards her and said "Do you need some help here maybe?"

The brunette turned around and nodded with a small smile on her lips. I took half of the files she was holding and followed to the classroom door she turned around after unlocking the door and said

"Thank you for the help ... Umm I didn't catch your name."

"I'm Alex, Alex Myers" I said as I put the files on her desk as I supposed she was the new French teacher since I never saw her around before.

"Well thank you for your help Alex, I'm Miss Hayes the new French teacher" she replied as she put the files on her desk next to the pile I made.

"Nice to meet you Miss Hayes."

"Like wise Miss Myers" she replied softly staring at my eyes. Her eyes were like honey, I lost myself in them for a few seconds until the bell wake me up from my day dreaming and I looked down and went to sit down in the last row not bothering to make any other eye contact with Miss Hayes again. I carefully took my earphones out and put one my ear discreetly so the teacher wouldn't see it. I took out my French text book and started to doodle some stuffs at the top of the page waiting for the class to begin.

"Good Afternoon everybody, I'm Miss Hayes and I'll be your new French teacher this year" Miss Hayes said closing the door to start her class. "Today we are not going to do much, I'm going to give you the syllabus for the class and then I went you to write down a presentation of yourself in French on a sheet of paper that you're going to give me at the end of the class so I can see your level." She then said while sitting down at her desk. "But first I'm going to do the register to try and associate your names with your faces" she added with a smile on her face. She started reading the register and when she said my name I just raised my hand to make her see that I am here and I then started to write the presentation that she asked us to do. I finished the assignment in a few minutes, I just wrote down the basics like my name my edge if I have some siblings, where I live and stuff like that I didn't really feel like going in the details of my life. I turn my head and saw that Miss Hayes placed a syllabus on the empty desk next to mine for me. I grab it and start reading it since I don't have anything else to do. I finished reading it rather quickly, she didn't really put anything new in the syllabus except the way she grade is different she give more importance to the oral participation which I don't really like I'd rather express myself by writing it than by saying it.

After a few minutes I looked up from my desk and saw on the board that we could give our assignment if we were done so I got up and walked towards her desk. Once I was in front her desk I saw her looking up at me as if she was waiting for me to say something but I didn't, I just hand her the paper and went back to my seat before she could say anything about the fact that I didn't write much. When I sat down I saw her eyeing me with her mouth hanging open a little but she closed it really fast after she saw that I catch her stare and put away my paper that was in her hand.

For the rest of the period I just listen to some music and draw some design for maybe a future tattoo. When the bell rang I was out in a few second, I know that if I stayed any longer Miss Hayes would have told me to stay behind to talk about my work and I really didn't want to because I know that I wouldn't listen to a word she say, I would just stare at those beautiful honey like eyes. I grabbed my skateboard from my locker, I walked out the school and when I got outside I realized that it was raining as hell and I had to go home under this pouring rain. I don't really have any other choice than to go home under this rain I thought. I jumped on my board and started to skate my way back home while listening to some music as usual. I got home in 20 minutes soaking wet from the rain and the stupid person who thought that it was funny to drive fast in a puddle of water so it could send the water all over me. I lived on my own since my parents decided to move away without me two years ago, not that I'm complaining I never had the best relationship with them. At least they care enough about me to send me some money every month. The day they left I just found a note on the fridge saying that they moved away and that they are leaving me the house. So basically I owed the house. Anyway I made my way to my bedroom upstairs to change out of those soaking clothes. I throw my bag on my desk and pulled out some sweatpants and a random tee shirt from my drawer. I don't have any homework for tomorrow some I basically have nothing to do, so I decided to go do some sport in my gym room.

After four to five hours, I heard the bell ring, "COMING!" I yelled from the gym. Who's ringing at my door I'm not waiting for anybody especially not at that time I thought. I opened the door and saw a brunette girl on my porch, she wasn't looking to me.

"Hello" I said to the brunette.

"Hello, sorry to bother you at this time of the evening, I was wondering if you could help me I just moved here." The brunette said looking up at me. That when I saw them, those honey like eyes I could recognized them from anywhere.

"Miss Hayes?" I asked in confirmation.

"Alex?! I didn't know you lived there. Are your parents home by any chance I need some help to move some furniture"

"Erm... No they're not, I lived on my own actually but I can help you if you want"

"Oh sorry I didn't know. Well I'll be very happy if you help me I really need it." She added with a smile on her face.

"If you don't mind I need to change first, you can come in." I said opening the door to let her come in.

"Thank you" she said as she came in.

"Make yourself at home I'll be back in a sec" I said running of to my room. I shut my bedroom door, took my sweaty shirt off, tossed it on my bed and grabbed a new one and put it on quickly. When I came back downstairs I saw Miss Hayes sitting on the couch on her phone. I grabbed my keys, and said "Ready to go Miss Hayes?"

"Yes, I am" she said getting up from the couch "Oh and by the way call me Kelly when we are outside of school, Miss Hayes makes me feel old and I'm not"
