Psychic Enchantress

Chapter 9. Dimples



I was pretty early for first period but I didn't care. I was so eager to see Jake today that I woke up early and rushed getting dress and grabbed a to go fruit.

I'm desperate. Just putting that out there.

I heard my tummy grumble, but I ignored it.

Please oh please let Jake be in this class.

I silently prayed.

Students began filing in and I hurriedly put on this bored looking facade.

The classroom was practically full now and no sign of Jake. There are only a few more seats remaining and the one to my right is Masons.

Speak of the devil and he shall return.

Mason walked in with a blank expression on his face with someone following behind.

He took a seat without looking in my direction and I really didn't mind. I'm tired of his bi polar personality. Its draining me.

The other guy took a seat to my left and I gave him a small smile.

"Hi Elena. You look good." Jake told me, his eyes roaming down my body slowly.

"Hi Jake. Thanks." I blushed and looked away. I was wearing my favorite black jeans, a cute white crop top with a red jacket and my black ankle boots.

Mr Smith then decide to walk in the class, 5minutes late. I tell yah, these teachers seriously aint committed to their jobs.

He gave out instructions to analyze a paragraph in our textbook and I got busy in doing that.

I read the first line of the paragraph and see an outstretched hand to the left at the corner of my eye. I look to see Jake holding his hand with a paper. I took it quickly looking if Mr Smith saw us.

'Hey I came up with a name to call you. Ellie. ;-) Do you like it? I wanted it to be our thing since you and Mason have a thing where you call him Pbear and he calls you Tiny Tot'

I read the note giggling slightly and frowning at the part where Mason calls me Tiny Tot. Obviously behind my back. He doesn't have the nerve to say it to my face.

I turned and scowled at Mason and I noticed he was already looking at me with an unreadable expression for other eyes to see but for my eyes, I could see right through it. He was actually confused. I can't tell why with these contacts on.

I rolled my eyes at him and turned to write a note for Jake.

'I love it Jake. :-) i'll give you a name soon. I'm ignoring the part where you say Mason calls me Tiny Tot. I may be tiny but am mighty ' I wrote down and pass it to him.

He visibly smiled and looked at me and gave me a wink. I could've sworn my cheeks were red. I feel so warm when i'm near him. I love it.

I looked down at my work and continued. The day went by pretty quickly and it was now time to go home.

"Hey Elena, me and the gang are headed to the coffee shop in the city. Most kids from here go there to chill all the time. You in?" Chloe asked me.

"Sure. I love coffee." I smiled. I was definitely in need of a latte.

Me, Chloe, Evan and Cynthia entered Culture Expresso couple minutes later.

I inhaled the goodness the minute I stepped in. I loved the smell of coffee.

The other thing i noticed other than the smell, was that Jake, Mason and the girl who I saw flirting him in the caf yesterday were here. She had her tongue down his throat and Mason looked like he was into it.

Yuck!

Luckily Jake was alone. He seemed lost in his own world.

"Be right back ." I told Chloe.

I walked over to where Jake was and I stopped right in front of him.

"Hey there Dimples." I said to him grinning.

He looked up immediately a huge smile forming on his face.

"Hey, you came up with a name for me. I like it Ellie." He said and got up and hugged me.

It took me off guard because this was the first time he had hugged me and I was greeted by his thoughts also with welcome arms.

'Finally i'm not the third wheel anymore. Ellie's so small, i think I might break her.' Jake thought.

I giggled and let go of him.

"I'm gonna go back to my friends now." I told him pointing to my friends at the corner of the shop,

His face fell instantly and I realized he didn't want to stay alone with Mason still sucking off the girl's face, not even recognizing that I was at his table.

"You could come sit with us...?" I asked Jake.

"I don't think Cynthia would like that. I think she hates me." He looked so adorable when he pouted.

"She'll be okay." I took his hand and carried him to the table where my friend's were.

"Guys, do you mind if Jake sits with us?" I asked them with pleading eyes looking mostly at Cynthia.

She looked a bit pissed but I know she would get through it.

Chloe and Evan had no problem with it.

I saw Chloe eyeing my hand and that's when I realized I was still holding Jake's hand. I let go of his blushing crimson before sitting down.

We were having so much fun before Mason decided to come to our table with suck face. She had dark brown hair and blue eyes, just like Mason sadly. I despised her already because by just looking at her, I knew she was far from genuine. Pure plastic. I think she said her name was Mikaela.

Mason said nothing the entire time. he just sat there with a blank expression. Mikaela though kept nagging him saying that he should come home with her. Like seriously, couldn't she whisper it in his ear or something.

I could also tell that she didn't like me. She kept looking at me with scrutiny.

I ignored both of them altogether and gave Jake my entire attention.

I just happen to realize that he had his arm around me on my chair. I smiled and looked at Chloe who was eyeing me and him raising her eyebrows up and down at me.

I knew exactly what she was thinking. I didn't need to read her mind to find out.

I don't know if Jake likes me but I sure do like him.

I looked up to see Mason staring at Jake's arm around me narrowing his eyes. His gaze shifted to my eyes and he quickly looked away and gave his attention to suck face.

We started to talk about the halloween dance coming up next month and I couldn't help but feel excited about it. I love me some Halloween.

Everyone started to talk about who they wanted to go with. Chloe said she had a crush on this new guy from Chemistry class, Cynthia said she didn't care who she went with. Evan looked at Cynthia with hopeful eyes but didn't say anything. Mikaela clung to Mason's arm and said something about them wearing matching outfits and Mason responded with a grunt.

Hopefully someone asks me to go with them. I really don't wanna be the odd one out when everyone is paired up and I'm the only who's not. Knowing I'm the new girl and all, I doubt anyone's going to ask me. I had my hopes up though.

I then saw Jake looking at me from the corner of my eye and I felt the lingering gaze of Mason on me.

Oh boy.
