So I know that I'm currently writing a long story right now for Advanceshipping but it won't hurt to write a fic for Ikarishipping right? Don't worry I'll make it short. This was supposed to be a one-shot but I had some more ideas.

Hope you guys like it!

Don't forget to Review if you like

By the way, Dawn and Paul and the rest of the characters are seniors here. Both of them are 17.

If you find this corny, well then sorry about that :D

It was a very beautiful morning. The sun's up high, the birds are chirping, the skies are blue and it was a perfect day to do whatever you want like go to the beach, go shopping or whatever pleases you. Unfortunately for some certain people, they're stuck listening to the boring lectures of their Calculus teacher.

A certain young, blue-haired girl wasn't quite listening to her teacher. Clearly, she wasn't interested in the discussions. This certain girl's name is Dawn Berlitz. She wore high pink boots with a pair of black almost-knee-high socks. Due to the school's rules, she wasn't allowed to wear her favourite short skirt so instead she wore a white knee-length pair of tight shorts with some touches of pink on it. She also wear a pink and black sleeveless blouse together with a red jacket.

Dawn hated school not because of the lessons. Okay, maybe a little bit because of the lessons but she hated the fact that she was always bullied by the popular cheerleader, Ursula. She often laughs at this girl's name since it always reminds her of the bad and ugly villain in the Little Mermaid. She had pink hair which was usually tied up in pigtails with ribbons and curled up. She is often seen wearing the school's cheering team uniform, white tanktop and yellow sleeveless top over it and a yellow short skirt. The collar and the hemlines were accentuated with a dark purple tint. Of course, these cheerleaders are an exception to the school rule considering that they are always out for practices after dismissal or sometimes during free period.

Ursula and her three best friends, Clare and Lea would usually pick on Dawn. A reason for this was ever since kindergarten, Dawn and Ursula would always fight. They would usually corner her near the lockers or 'accidentally' spill their drinks on her or knock her down when she's carrying a heavy load of books.

Despite those bullies, she had two best friends, May, a brunette girl wearing an blue shirt with some imprinted words randomly shuffled tucked inside her white skirt together with a yellowish-gold belt around her small waist and was wearing a blue pair of Converse shoes. Her other friend was the red head Misty, who usually wore her head in side ponytail and a red shirt and a brown pair of knee-length shorts. They were always together whether it's doing homework or fighting off Ursula and her gang.

Meanwhile, on the boys section, we spot a purple-haired guy wearing a blue and black jacket with a dark blue shirt inside. He wore dark purple pants and blue sneakers. His name was Paul. He was quarterback of the football team and was considered one of the hottest guys in school. Despite him being popular, he was mysteriously quiet and doesn't talk to a lot of people. He only talks to his friends Ash, the boy with raven hair pointing almost everywhere, wearing black jeans, blue sneakers and a dark blue top inside a cyan jacket, and Gary, a brunette with hair almost similar to Ash's, wearing a black shirt and a brown pair of pants together with black sneakers, he also wore a fang chain neckless.

Anyway, back to the real story. That was a very long introduction. It was already the first and a half month of school in Melbourne High School but it still felt new for the said characters. They were listening to their Calculus teacher's lesson. Once the bell rang, everyone went outside eagerly for their break.

"I want this year to be different. I mean, like, this is our last year here and I guess I want it to count as one of the best years in my life." Dawn told her friends as they munched on peanut butter sandwiches.

"What kind of different do you want?" May asked her.

"I think I know what she wants." Misty smirked knowingly.

"You do?" May asked in curiosity.

"Yeah, you want Mr. Quarterback to notice you right, Dawn?" Misty grinned at her friend who stopped eating her burger and stared at her friend.

"I did not say that!" Dawn fumed.

"Dawn, we've been friends for what? Eight years? I'm guessing that you want Paul to be back the way he was and to stop avoiding you and whatever" Misty said in an as-a-matter-of-fact tone to her.

"Not catching up here! What's with Paul anyway?" May wondered albeit loudly.

"Be quiet! He'll hear you!" Dawn whispered toher.

"Anyway, see you tomorrow." Misty said gathering her stuff up.

"You're leaving?" Dawn asked her. Misty nodded and said, "I still have to fix my passport stuff, don't worry, May's still here."

"Actually, I have an account to settle with Mrs. Paten, I kinda bad mouthed her during her class a while ago so sorry to say but you're on your own." May stood up finishing up her drink and fixing her things.

"Don't worry, it's just a day. You'll survive without us. Bye!" Misty said as May waved and they left.

"Great!" Dawn sarcastically said as she finished her last bits of sandwich.

"If it isn't Berryhead" A voice called to Dawn at whom she recognized belong to Ursula. She stood up from her seat and fixed her things.

"What do you want?" Dawn said in a bored tone.

"Nothing. Is it wrong to stop by to say hi to a friend?" Ursula said as her friends laughed.

"And when were WE friends? Step aside before I push you at it" Dawn said annoyed at Ursula and her friends.

"Oh no! I'm so scared! Help me!" Ursula said in a mocking voice which annoyed Dawn even more. "Seriously, pushing? How mature Dawn" And with that, all three of them laugh.

"See you later, Berryhead!" Ursula greeted in her high-pitched voice, purposely shoving Dawn by the shoulder making her drop her books. Clare and Lea, as usual, dumped 'accidentally' their drink on Dawn making her angrier.

"Bitches." Dawn muttered as she tried to dry herself with her hanky. As soon as she 'thought' she was finished, she bent down to pick her books up but to her surprise another pair of hands scooped them up. She looked up and she was surprised that the certain purplehead quarterback picked them up for her.

"Uhh..." Dawn started not really knowing what to say. Paul stood up and gave Dawn her books.

"They were in my way. I would've tripped on them if you didn't pick them up quickly." Paul whispered in a monotonous voice and went to his table with Ash and Gary following close behind.

DAWN'S POV

I don't know if my eyes or my head are playing with me but I could've sworn that right after Paul left, he had a smile on his face. Not that usual smirk that he'd give to other people but just a simple, plain smile. Although, that simple, plain smile of his brightened up my day.

I've known Paul ever since kindergarten and believe me, we were best friends. We were literally inseparable. Although, ever since junior year, he started avoiding me. I don't know what happened. I was going to ask him if he wanted to go with me to our junior prom but he declined. He told me that he's taken. I felt my heart shatter in a million pieces. My own best friend rejected me. I ended up dancing with Kenny instead. He's funny but I'm not really that interested in him. After that awkward prom, we barely talked to each other until we were no longer best friends. Did I mention that he's been dating Ursula ever since Sophomore Year? Now you know. No wonder he's been avoiding me. I didn't take too much time to figure that out.

Ursula, that bitch, my rival since kindergarten, it would only be typical of her to get Paul to avoid me. I guess she probably knew my crush on Paul and my theory says that she told Paul then he probably doesn't feel the same way as I do and avoids me and all those things that happen to those corny high school chick flicks. For the record, I do NOT like chick flick movies. Why make them if they don't happen in real life? To get our hopes up? Okay, maybe I used to love chick flicks but it's because I used to watch them with Paul when he was still the laughing stock I used to hang out with. Those were the days.

"Ms. Berlitz! Stop day dreaming and pay attention!" scolded my history teacher. I've been daydreaming about Paul that I hadn't realized that we were already discussing our lessons. This is totally embarrassing.

Oh yeah, I haven't told you yet! Paul and I have the same history, calculus, chemistry and music classes. I felt my cheeks flush red from embarrassment. You'd feel the same if you got caught daydreaming in class! Oh the embarrassment!

The bell rung and I quickly went outside for the break and met up with Kenny, my guy best friend. Don't worry, nothing's going on between us. We're just best friends. Besides, he's been dating this girl named Zoey and I'm totally fine with that.

"Hey Kenny!" I yelled, waving at him.

He approached me and gave me a smile. "What's up, DeeDee?" DeeDee is the ridiculous nickname he called me. I really don't like that name but it's just Kenny who calls me that so I don't mind.

"Where's Zoey?" And as if on cue, Zoey, the red head, spiky-haired girl came up to us. She was wearing red boots, brown pants, a black shirt and a yellow sleeveless vest over it.

"Right here!" Zoey said.

"So anyway, you have plans for this weekend?" I asked them.

"Yeah. Kenny over here's taking me to some zoo." Zoey replied.

"That's right! The best zoo ever!" Kenny cheerfully said.

"I can see why he likes zoos." I said and Zoey and I burst into a fit of laughter.

"By the way, where are Misty and May?" Kenny broke our laughter and I said, "Misty had to fix some business for her passport and May's still in detention."

"What did she do this time?" Zoey asked me.

"She bad-mouthed Mrs. Paten. She should be out," I glanced at my watch and continued, "right about now!" Like she knew we were talking about her, she came up to us from detention.

"Hey guys!" May squealed waving at us. "Boy, you have NO idea how happy I am!"

"You're the only one I know who'd feel happy for being in such a horrible place." I told her but she ignored it as she was looking at someone from the other side of the lockers.

"Guess who gave me his number in detention?" May was turning red and from the looks of it, I can see that she's totally joyful. TOO JOYFUL. If she gets more red, she'd probably explode.

"Let me guess, Ash? You know, PAUL's friend, co-captain of the football team?" Zoey said. I flinched knowing that she purposely emphasized the Paul's name. Zoey just looked at me with a big grin on her face knowing that I liked Paul.

"Ash freaking Ketchum just gave me his effin' number! I think I'm gonna explode!" May squealed once again as she turned redder than a while ago if that was actually possible.

"Calm down, May. It's just a number, it's not like he asked you out already!" Kenny reminded her. Just as soon as he said that, Ash came right over to us. I was hoping that Paul was with him but unfortunately he wasn't. He was accompanied by Gary who seemed to be looking for someone as he glanced nervously at us.

"Yes?" I broke the fit of glances between us.

"oh right! Uh, May, so got any plans tomorrow? I mean it's a Saturday and I, uh, well..." Guess Mr. Co-Captain's a little less confident that he usually is.

"I'm free tomorrow! Totally free!" May said excitedly not minding the big blush on her face.

"So you wanna go out with me? Get some food, go to a movie or something like that?" Ash asked her nervously failing to hide his blush.

"YES YES YES!" May shouted receiving surprised stares from us, she cleared her throat and said in a formal manner, "I would love to" and gave him her signature smile.

"Alright, see you at 10 tomorrow!" Ash said and left. Gary stopped to look at us for another second and walked away but I caught up with him, "Gary, Misty's not with us right now. She's left a while ago for some foreign affair. Anyway, have you seen Paul?" I asked him.

"Yeah, he's with Ursula right now in the cafeteria. I feel sorry for him." Gary said then left and from the looks of his face, he was trying to suppress his laughter. I giggled when he said that he felt sorry for Paul being with Ursula.

I went back to my group of friends and headed over to the cafeteria to have lunch. As I reached the cafeteria, I quickly spotted Paul with Ursula, he didn't look happy. Maybe they were dating, but I have the big feeling that he doesn't even like Ursula. Almost as if he was just forced into dating her. I feel sorry for him just like what Gary had said. I stared at them for a moment and walked to my table where my other friends sat.
