Hey, everyone! See y'all at the bottom. :)
"Man, you could've at least warned me a little," Gray complains, as we make our way to the next class.
Shrugging, I looked straight ahead.
Cheerleaders with their captain, Mirajane Strauss, huddled along their lockers, giggling and pointing to something down the corridor. The nerds, led by Levy McGarden, hurry off to somewhere else animatedly talking about their chess club meeting later this afternoon. Laxus Dreyar, the quarterback, shooting the crap with his football team-mates, while making the lovey-dovey eyes with his girlfriend, Mirajane.
It's all so painfully cliché and boring.
I should be used to it by now, I guess.
"What did you promise her, anyway? I have gotta know the reason why she threw such a horrible hissy fit yesterday."
"Nothing that important, really. You know how she overreacts all the freaking time."
"Whatever dude, just try and keep the drama to yourself okay? You know how ridiculously jealous Juvia is, she thought Lisa was trying to make a move on me and so," he stopped me in front of his class and leveled me with an annoyed, disdainful stare before continuing, "Someone did not get laid the last night."
Chuckling, I answer, "You both are always going at it like rabbits. How does it matter if you don't get some for one night? And besides, I'm sure if you play your cards right, she'll more than make it up to you tonight."
Rolling his eyes, he answered, "Just… Keep the Lisa-craziness to yourself, okay? And by the way, why do you still keep that poor girl hanging after you like that?"
"What did I do? I made it clear to her from the very beginning that I was the wham-bam-thank-you-ma'am kinda guy and she seemed okay with it at the beginning. But now, I don't know, she's become so crazy and clingy kind of, pretending to be my unofficial girlfriend."
"Then why don't you just set her straight?"
"I don't know. I did make it clear to her that I wasn't interested in any kind of a relationship with her, except for being friends but she still chooses to be like this, so.." I carried off, with a shrug.
Shaking his head, Gray ducked into his classroom mumbling 'dumb-ass' under his breath. Smirking I walk towards the staircase and make my way leisurely to the school roof-top.
Bunking classes has long since lost the thrill and seeing how I haven't been caught a single day in the last three years, it's safe to say that I wouldn't be caught anytime soon in the near future.
However, when I cross the last flight of stairs, I see that the door leading to the roof-top is ajar.
Well that's definitely interesting.
I start walking cautiously towards it and when I peek out, I see an even stranger sight- a blonde girl with her hair tied in a side ponytail, leaning against the railings.
"You can stop with the gawking you know," she said, catching me off-guard.
I straighten out just as she turns around to face me. She lifts a cigarette and takes a long blow from it before raising an eyebrow.
I approach her, confused and slightly annoyed.
I don't think I'd ever seen her before. And I think I'd remember a pretty hot girl like her but what was really bothering me was that she was in my secret, well no longer secret, place where I go off to when this dreary high school becomes too much for me to handle.
She was wearing a jean short skirt and a white crop top, the creamy expanse of her toned stomach left on display, with her blonde hair left down. The way she held herself, her every movement was fluid and graceful, it was unlike any other high school girl I'd seen
I walk towards her, as she turned around and leaned against the railings again, looking down at the school grounds.
"Who are you?" I ask.
"Lucy."
Little did I know that that one name- that one mysterious girl- was going to change my life forever.
I wanna thank that sweet guest reviewer- you, whoever you are, are freaking amazing! Your review was really helpful and it encouraged me immensely. Thank you so much, love!
And I'm thinking of doing something a little different: those who review would get a juicy sneak-peek into the next chapter. I need input from all of you in order to get better at writing and y'all would get a teaser to what's coming up next.
Reviews are love, so hurry up and leave me some love.
Hope, y'all have a nice day. :)
