Chapter5

#Chapter5

The next few days have gone by so quickly, Marley finally came back to school but promised our mother that he would stay away from Charlie. Speaking of Charlie I keep passing him in the halls, he just sends me a wink then walks off.

But it was now Friday, the day I said I would tutor him. I choose this day as I knew Marley would be at practice, as for our mum she's never home only in the mornings, she's been like that since our dad died.

I move all my maths things to the kitchen, the books were all set up waiting as the door begins to knock. Taking a look at the clock, he was half an hour early, I shrug making my way over to the front door.

I open it and come face to face with Charlie, he stood there smiling with his school bag over one shoulder. I smile moving aside to let him in, he thanks me making his way into the house as I close the door.

/"We'll work in the kitchen, follow me/" I smile, moving past taking him to the kitchen, I didn't know if I should feel nervous about this or not.

/"Got it all set up,/" he says from behind me, I just nod taking my seat while pulling the books towards me /"I'm just waiting for your brother to burst out of somewhere/" he laughs looking around, I think he was just trying to make conversation.

/"No, I chose today as he's at practice, it's just you and me focusing on work/" I smile, I take a look at the chair telling him with my eyes to sit down, he finally gets the point taking the seat beside me.

/"Mr Jones told me you're his best student, I thought you'd be a huge nerd but you're not,/" he tells me pulling his books out, I just roll my eyes watching him /"you're actually the complete opposite to how I thought you'd be/" he smiles, wait is he trying to be nice?

/"Thanks, I guess, but enough talking it's work time/" I smile opening my book to a page about equations, he smiles opening his book to the same page.

Who knows where this is about to go.

We spent around an hour just working, I thought he wouldn't do anything but he actually did and was slowly starting to get it, I felt like a proper teacher!

/"Now just solve that easy sum,/" I tell him, he nods working it out slowly but ends up getting it right /"there see, I told you it's easy once you know how/" I smile, he smiles back looking quite pleased with himself.

/"You're a great teacher/" he smiles placing his pen down, I thank him turning to look at my book.

No one spoke for a while, I mean we were basically finished but neither of us went to move anything to leave. I turn to look at him but before I knew it, he had crashed our lips together. I sat there shocked for a second before finally giving in, what felt like forever we eventually pull away from each other.

/"Well/" he starts, but his phone starts blowing up with messages before he could continue /"I better go but thank you/" he smiles quickly packing his things away, I sat there shocked for a second but soon break out of said trance.

Once he had everything I follow him to the front door, just before he walks out he turns to place a kiss on my cheek.

/"I'm taking you out, I'll text you the details/" he winks before opening the door leaving, wait he doesn't have my number.

I place my back against the door just staring at the wall, did that just happen? Did I really just have my first kiss over maths work? With Charlie Wilson!
