Two Sparks

A silent Class

(The story sets place in a honors class. The atmosphere is the same as always, everyone is talkative. It's just a normal work day and almost nobody is working on anything. Millie and Sawyer are talking about Sawyer's boyfriend while he is in the bathroom. Millie's head is resting on her desk while Sawyer is leaning forwards toward

"I'm sorry but I just don't like him, dude." Said Millie quietly with her head on the desk. All I could do was look disappointed. "Can you at least tell me why? I don't see why you guys don't like him so much." The whole room seemed to tense up as Millie looked back. "Lets start with one: the "Katy" thing bothers me. For someone who is "learning" he sure isn't putting in any effort! And he is just a giant ba-," She instantly gets quiet as he walks back to his seat from the bathroom. She sighs and puts her head down. I knew that everyone didn't like my boyfriend but I couldn't understand why. It was always a mystery to him. Okay, maybe it's the gender, or the multiple relationships in a month, or the clinginess. Fine, there is a lot of reasons. Maybe they'll see what I see in him just hopefully, hopefully. "Hey, Katy." Said the moro-(Oops). "It's Sawyer..for the fifteenth time" claimed Millie quietly, not looking at the others. I tried to comfort her but he kept calling my name so I was forced to look at him..he always did that and used that stupid name. I hate that name. I know he is just saying it from ignorance. He just has to be saying it from ignorance. She always gets so upset, I hope that will end soon. I don't see what changed! She used to like him just like me. Over the past month things seem to change completely. Oh god, I'm overthinking again. I hope no one notices, what if it's obvious? God I can't even descri- "Millie are you okay?"

   A deep but soft voice asked from a few desk away. A tall athletic man stood up slowly and walked over. It felt as though time was slowing down. I could not get my attention off of him, every step he makes closer to me feels like walking to the gates of heaven.  As he knelt down by Millie I could stop look at his features.  His deep chocolate eyes are almost hypnotizing, I wish I could stare for hours. His soft looking lips, lips that look like you can kiss for hours and never get tired of it. I don't understand how someone could look so hot but cute at the same. I try to reach out to them but my boyfriend grabs my hand. I turn to him and lets go, I couldn't be by him.  I just wanted to be by him.  I knelt by him and felt like a new person. He smelled so good and sweet. He smelt like mint, not to strong but strong enough to soothe you. His hair so neat and cared for, he seemed like he cared about his appearance but not too high maintenance.  He just looked so perfect. "What are you looking at?" asked Millie teasingly. "You're face is very red". She starts to laugh slightly while I hid my face. "You should feel his face he may be sick, I mean, just to be safe." Millie said while looking concerned at the man still knelt by her. She turned to me smirking and winked, what was she up to? 

He stood up slowly and I could really see how tall he was. He was closer to me than before. He knelt down in front of me and put his hand on my cheek. His hands we big and soft, I almost felt safe with him just being by me. He put his forehead on mine and looked my in the face. His eyes were actually pools of chocolate. I was mesmerized until he started to stumble. He stumbled forward an his hands pressed down on both sides of my desk, his body was hovering over me. He looked shocked and almost appeared as if he were blushing. He popped up and stumbled back. Millie leaned forward "Oops I guess my bag must've accidentally hit you. heh, sorry Arexis." She said that smiling and looking up at him. Arexis? I've heard that name before from one of my friends when she would talk about her cousin. "A-are you okay..?" I asked trying to make sure he was okay. He smiled nervously, if you could even call it that. He still seemed so confident, like nothing had affected him in the slightest. "Yeah I'm fine, but are you?" His smile didn't break. I stood up slowly to be face to face with him when the bell suddenly rung. Damn, why of all times. Everyone got up to get their stuff and he went back to their desk. "I think Sawyer will be fine, Arexis" Said Millie with a stupid smirk still on her face. "Sawyer?" He looked at me for confirmation. "Well then, Sawyer, I'll see you tomorrow." He was half way out the door when he suddenly stopped. He turned and looked at me with a slight tint of red on him face.
