• fourth hour. school was half over and james was sitting in art class. the chair next to him smelled slightly of anne. he wondered what time she had this class and if she had anymore classes with him. he got caught up in visions of anne for the hundredth time that day.
    james sat up quickly. he had gotten a hint of anne's thoughts and immediatly he was focused on her thoughts. and just as his thoughts were on her, her's were on him. only she seemed mad that she kept thinking about him. that he was interfering with her school work.
    stop thinking about james already!! if i can't get through fourth hour without thinking about him i might as well just go home and ditch the rest of my classes. she was very angry. james felt a bit of guilt that she couldn't concentrate. but it was swept away by the feeling of joy that she had been thinking of him too.
    when anne got into the classroom just like before when they had first met, her's and james's eyes locked and for james the rest of the classroom fell away leaving only him and anne.
    anne's thoughts stopped for a moment, completely clearing her mind. but then they started up again. what the hell? how many classes do i have with him?!
    with that she proceded to walk into the classroom and sit down in the seat right next to james. james was happy about her being so close but upset that she was upset with him.
    and then he caught someone thinking about her in a way that made him irrationally angry. someone wanted anne and would do pretty much anything to get her. the name caught in james's head when someone shouted hi to them.
    lucas. one of anne's best friends. and he wanted her. james's teeth started to grind together in his anger. this guy with his anne?
    i can't keep calling her mine. she isn't mine. not now not ever. james thought.
    by the time lucas walked in james was furious. he hadn't even known he could be this mad. they locked eyes and immediate dislike sprung up between them. the next thoughts in lucas's head were still about anne but they also had a bit of james thrown in.
    who is this guy? i don't like him and i really don't like anne being next to him. you better back off buddy cause she's mine. or she will be and no tough guy wanna be is gonna take her from me.
