Chapter 20

"ok class, please welcome Logan Crowley. He just moved in!" 

 

The teacher waved in a tall kid, white hair, ripped jeans and a leather biker jacket. He wore sunglasses completing the almost 50s vibe he was giving off. He probably would have looked cool but for some reason I didn't want to look at him for very long, something about him felt off. 

 

"thanks teach!" He took off his glasses and took his sit which coincidentally was right behind Fran. I glanced at Fran and she seemed like she couldn't take her eyes off of him... That doesn't feel good. 

 

I gestured at her to get her attention but she seemed a little dazed or out of it. She shook it off and smiled at me. 

 

"what's up?" 

 

I didnt like this new kid. Maybe is my manly hormones urging me or something. 

 

"let's meet after school today ok!" I told Fran. 

She almost looked hesitant though. 

 

"uhhhh I actually have something else I have to do later. Let's meet later tonight instead" 

 

Did I just get shrugged off? My ego was a little hurt and I sat staring at my homework. What could she have going on today? 

 

Near the end of class there was some free time so we could chat together and right as I turned over to talk to Fran, Logan was already chatting her up. And she was smiling. 

 

"so what are you doing today?" Logan with a smooth voice asked Fran. 

 

"oh, nothing." She giggled and tucked her hair behind her ear. 

 

What was happening right now? My heart thumped loudly in anger and frustration. Nothing?????? You just told me your were busy? 

 

Before the weekend we were still dating, but now it's like I don't even exist! I turned and rushed out of the room. My heart ached. Maybe I was just the first guy she liked and now that her powers were gone she had more options?  

 

Tears started swelling up in my eyes, this was too much. I couldn't think straight. I went straight home and curled up in my blankets.
