Chapter Two
I hid out for a few more minutes until I finally had to make an appearance in my classroom before Jasper found out that I had gone AWOL and cut me into little pieces- literally!
I know that so far today Jasper has came off like a complete and utter stick in the mud, but she really isn’t. Stavros has just been on her case constantly lately, he blames her for the three of us getting kicked out of the last to schools we’ve attended, when, in reality, the blame rests solely on Will, and Stavros knows it. Not that he’d ever admit it. Will? His shining star? Never. So the target of his tirade is Jasper, the oldest and our team leader.
I had been wandering the halls for a few minutes before I realized that I had absolutely no idea where I was going.
“Dang it!” I growled.
“Need some help?”
I whirled around. Behind me stood one of the most gorgeous people I had ever seen in my life. A boy, around my age, awaited my reply.
“Yeah. Do you know where Mrs. Tucker’s biology class is,” I asked coolly.
“Sure. I’ll take you there, it’s on my way anyway. I’m Zev by the way,” he replied, his voice was deep and melodic as he held out his hand.
“Kira,” I answered, and met his hand with my own only to yank it back as a warm shock made its way from my palm all the way up my arm.
What the hell?
Zev pulled his back as well and ran his hand through this longish hair that was darker than the night itself looking flustered.
“Follow me,” he called, and darted down a random hallway, making me speed walk to catch up with him.
We walked in silence for a bit before coming to a stopped in front of an open doorway.
“Here you are,” Zev announced.
It took a minute for his words to register; I was, at the moment deep in thought, trying the figure out how he had been able to sneak up on me after all my years of training.
When they did though, I immediately spun around to thank him only to find myself alone in the hallway. Zev was nowhere in sight, and I hadn’t even heard him walk away.
Again, what the hell?!
