Chapter 4

Mrs Stella patiently waited for Raymond to tell her what happened. Chloe didn't want any trouble that's why she hardly goes to the nurse office when she has injuries, she goes only when its a deep wound.

Chloe watched how Mrs Stella was waiting for Raymond to respond to her questions. She her self was also eager to hear what he had to say.

Would he snitch out his girlfriend and tell the truth or would he make up an excuse?

Chloe already knew that he would obviously not tell about his girlfriend, after all he claims to care about her so much during the little moment they had in the hall just a few moments ago.

Raymond didn't show any emotions, he looked at Chloe and said "Someone bumped into me and I spilled my drink, Chloe over here as clumsy as she is didn't see the ground was wet. She slipped and fell face flat".

He narrated to Mrs Stella. It wasn't all a lie he just put him self in his girlfriend position.

Mrs Stella gave him a hard look and turned her attention Chloe for confirmation of his story.

Raymond noticed this and smiled " isn't that right Chloe? " directing the question to the girl who was so much lost in her thoughts.

Chloe looked up, if she says other wise she would get into a bigger trouble from not only Raymond but Emma also.

She looked down and her palm which was covered with sticky drink and a little blood. She just has to avoid trouble and she would be okay.

She raised her head and looked up at Mrs Stella "That's what happened" She finally confirmed.

Mrs Stella didn't know what to believe but allowed the situation to pass by.

After cleaning up Chloe, she whipped of her palm with baby whips.

"Okay that's good, I'll go write down hallway passes for you guys, I'll be right back" she announced and left the room to another section where her desk was.

Now Raymond and Chloe was alone.

Chloe could feel his stares on her, as much as she tried to avoid eye contact and keep her self busy with the hem of her shirt she just couldn't stop her heart from flattering and her cheeks getting red from embarrassment.

Chloe could hear Ray shift from one leg to another, looking up and finally caught his eyes.

She instantly looked away.

Ray took the opportunity to approach her, he pushed himself away from the wall and one step at the time he was right in front of her.

Chloe didn't know how to react she just kept her head low

"Look at me" Ray called out to her in a hush voice. She was sitting on the bed so she felt so intimidated by how they were.

Chloe looked up until her eyes were locked with his.

Raymond raised his hand slowly and touched her cheeks with his finger tip, it was only a split second but Chloe felt like she was on top of the world, that very moment she understood romance novels when they talked about butterflies in her stomach.

She closed her eyes wanting more but the next thing she heard made everything die down, the butterflies was instantly killed with his blunt words

"Stay away from my girlfriend if not I'll make your time here a living hell" He said so slowly for all the words to digest it self into Chloe's heart and mind.

He stepped back from her and stood in the corner waiting for his ticket to his next class.

Right on cue Mrs Stella came into the room with the hall way passes.

She noticed the tension but didn't ask questions.

Raymond grabbed his and walked out of the office with out saying anything to anyone.

"Everything alright?" Mrs Stella asked Chloe who looked as pale as ever.

Chloe just gave her a nod and smiled a little even if it was fake.

"Okay, well this is your pass and your lollipop" Mrs Stella handed it over to her.

"Thank you" with that she walked out of the office.

Back of her mind she couldn't get rid of what Raymond said to her. She just couldn't help it, a lonely tear drop ran down her cheeks.
