《Blue Eyes (A Paranormal Romance)》Chapter 3

Oh no. No, no, no, no.
I glance over at Jake to see him in the same position he has been in this whole time, except now he has a small smirk playing on his annoyingly perfect face.
What a pompous jerk.
There was no way I was going to let him win and see me embarrass myself in front of the whole class. The way he confidently sat back in his chair clearly showed that he didn't believe I could come up with anything. That I would just stand there with nothing to say in front of the class.
No. That's exactly what he wanted,
So, that's exactly what he wouldn't get.
I stand up with shaky hands and wipe them on my sweater, trying to calm my racing heart.
Squaring back my shoulders and lifting my chin up, I totally wing it last second. "Hello. I'm introducing Jake Lester, his favorite color is hot pink, his favorite show is My Little Pony. He takes ballet, and enjoys dancing alone in his room when nobody is watching. His favorite thing to do is bake snickerdoodles, while rocking out to Justin Bieber."
I announce this "information on Jake" loud and clear making the whole class erupt into laughter.
I sit back down in my chair with a satisfied grin on my face, making a point to look at Jake as smugly as I can.
Pride ripples through me. That outta show him.
I sneak a peek over at Jake to see he's staring at me. Anger, annoyance, and amusement all show on his face at once, it only fuels my confidence.
I give him my best impression of his smirk.
After a moment Mr. Ampler clears his throat, quieting down all of my classmates and says
"Okay, thank you Miss Hibbler for that rather....interesting introduction. Jake Lester, it's your turn to introduce Bethany" he instructs and sits back down in his chair.

I fold my arms and look over at Jake with a raised eyebrow.
I'm pretty sure of myself. Pretty sure that he can't top that.
He looks right back at me and slowly stands up, his eyes never leaving mine.
With full confidence he turns to look at the class and speaks with just as much confidence if not more "Actually, I'm not sure how to introduce Bethany. All she kept talking about was coming over to her house tonight so we can "really explore each other's interests"..."
My whole body tenses up and I just sit there staring at Jake with bewildered eyes, my mouth hanging low enough to touch the floor, my heart races a million miles a minute and my cheeks are flaring with embarrassment.
Did he seriously just say that?! Well, maybe he could top what I had said after all...
Jake turns around slightly to give me a very annoying smirk, a smirk that I imagine resembles mine almost perfectly.
I feel like dying as the whole class erupts in laughter.
I slowly slink down in my chair and hide my face as best I can with my hair.
After what feels like a thousand years,
Mr. Ampler covers his mouth with his hand for a second. Is it just me or did I just see Mr Ample trying to hide his chuckle? After another moment of him conveniently hiding his mouth, he finally speaks "alright class, settle down! Mr. Lester and Miss Hibbler, I'll see you after class."

Terminal
My heart was shattered that day. It was on that day that I realized that life had an end, and that mine was coming. It was on that day that I realized that I was going to die. Leukemia, they told me. It's almost over. I didn't know what to do after that. I thought that maybe it would be best to die right then, get it over with. I thought that I could push myself away from all my friends, all my family, stop them from missing me after I was gone. I thought that I could handle it on my own, that perhaps the world was better off without me. I was wrong. So please help me, I'm dying. Save me, I'm falling. They tell me I won't survive. Please catch me, because if you don't, I'll shatter. I can't grab on anymore, I can't keep fighting. It's going to swallow me up. My name is Alyssa Gray, and by the time you finish reading this, I'll be dead. ________________________________ A few warnings and things to note: -I've put up the tramatising content tag due to a lot of mentions on death, dying, illness, and a mother who tends to be rather cruel. I know that I take a perspective that many will strongly disagree with, and I'm okay with that. Just be warned that this isn't lighthearted stuff. This is real, and death is real, and this part streaches beyond the fiction into reality. -I'm going to say a minor spoiler, but I don't want it to take you unaware because it is something to be aware of. At one point, my MC attempts suicide and fails. It's a very violent scene and I will put up the gore tag after writing this, and it's also just really depressing. If this will be triggering, you need to be aware of this before you read it. -This is a christian book. It may go against some of your beliefs. I hope that you can read and comment anyway even if some of it does not sit well with you. Credits for the cover go to the user 'Media in Sanity'. Your help and assitance has meant so much to me, God bless you in your writing and your endevours. A proud member of WriTE. I've promised to finish this fiction and update it at least once a month. My schedule is very irregular, and I'm working on that, but I'm going to do everything I can to make sure that this book stays out there. I'm not ending it until it's done.
