Chamber of Reflection - Mac Demarco

Millie's P.O.V

I felt people staring at me as I left Finn. Humiliation was flowing through me. I reached my English class right before the second bell rang causing everyone in the class to stare at me. I quickly took my seat that was in the back row ignoring all the stares. "Alright class, today we're not gonna have any lessons today so you all will just be working on the assignment that I'll be handing out right now." Ms. Jones explains as she starts to hand out papers to every student in the class.

"Ms. Brown?" She calls as she as she sits at her desk. I sigh with annoyance and slowly got up from my seat and walk up to her desk. As I walk through the row of desks I hear a cat whistle catching my ear but ignored it which caused people to snicker. Ms. Jones was too busy grading papers to even pay attention to what just happened. "Yes, Ms. Jones?"

"Congratulations," She says with a wide smile on her lips.

"For what?" I asked with a worried tone.

"For making it in the creative writing competition!" She says excitingly. My heart was pumping, I didn't sign myself up. The story that I wrote was very personal to me. That story was very similar to my life, I can't let anyone read it. I only trust Ms. Jones but now I'm starting to regret letting her read it. What if people don't like it, or worse, hate it! "I didn't sign myself up, who did?"

"It was me," She says happily. My heart stopped, now I really regret letting her read my story.

"Why?" I asked anxiously.

"Well, the deadline to sign up was yesterday so I signed you up for you." She explains.

"They'll be announcing the top ten stories tomorrow in the announcements," She says excitingly.

"Okay," I said trying not to sound worried. I turn back to walking back to my seat. As I walk through the row of seats I notice a page of eyes on me. I look up seeing a boy with a smirk on his lips. He was rubbing his chin as he stared at me with interested eyes. He had brown hair that was brushed back. His brown eyes were looking at me up and down. He notices my gaze and sent a wink at me. I raise an eyebrow with confusion but felt disgusted inside. I quickly took my seat. I was able to finish the assignment before the bell rang. I quickly walked out of the class and head to my locker.

"Hey, hottie," I turn around seeing the same boy that winked at me earlier. I raise an eyebrow at him with confusion. "I was talking to you," He says pointing in my direction.

"So, what's your name?" He asks leaning against the lockers. I stayed quiet and ignored him. He chuckles at my silence. "Well, my name is Jacob, Jacob Sartorius." H says as he grabs my hand ready to kiss the top of it. I quickly pulled my hand away from him.

"Did I ask?" I said with an annoyed tone. I turned back to my locker and shut it hard ready to walk away until I felt a grip on my hand. "Hey wait," He says pulling me close to him. He places his thumb on my chin.

"You're a pretty one aren't ya," He says with a smirk on his lips.

"Don't touch me," I said pushing his hand off my chin.

"Hey don't leave yet," He says as he pushes me against the lockers. I felt people staring at me in the hallways whispering at each other as they stare at me stuck against the lockers. I struggled to get out of Jacobs grip on me. "I like that accent of yours, sounds sexy," He says as he places his arm against the lockers. I felt myself gagging on the inside.

"I've heard what you could do with those lips of yours, why don't you do them on me," He says as he leans closer to me. I shut my eyes tight with discomfort. His grip quickly lets go of me. I open my eyes seeing Jacob suddenly standing three feet away from me. Relief spread through me.

"The fuck do you think you're doing Sartorius?" I look up seeing Finn with anger flowing through me. "Just asking if she was interested," Jacob explains.

"Well, she isn't. Don't lay a finger on her," He whispers stepping closer to Jacob. Finn quickly wrapped his arm around my waist and guided me away from Jacob that was left alone in the middle of the hallway. His grip on my waist was tight on me with my side pressed against him as we walked together.

"You alright?" Finn asks as we reach his locker.

"You didn't have to save my ass, I was perfectly fine on my own," I said angerly pushing his hand off my waist. "Well, it didn't look like it. It seemed like he was trying to take advantage of you. The least you could say is thank you," I rolled my eyes and crossed my arms. I don't want to admit it but he did save my ass. I would've been stuck in Jacob's arms with his lips stuck on mine, uhh that's disgusting!

"Thanks," I mumbled avoiding Finn's eyes.

"I'm sorry, what did you guys say," Finn asks cupping his ear as he leans closer to me. I sigh with annoyance.

"Thanks Wolfhard," I said a little louder but this time look straight into his eyes. "You're very welcome Ms. Brown," He says as he leans close and steals a kiss from me. He quickly walks away and leaves me shocked.
