A contagious laugh- Karl Jacobs x y/n-female reader

chapter 1:)

why was his laugh so contagious?

one year ago,

Monday, September 7th

Every morning it's the same thing over and over again. It's something so effortless yet so repetitive. It's 7:20 AM and here we go, the loud annoying beep of my alarm clock letting me know it's time for my misery to start. As I wake up, slowly pulling the warmth off me and enjoying every last moment of comfort, I rub the sleep out of my eyes and quickly stand up. I then throw on some clothes.
Next, it's the long walk to the kitchen for a mandatory breakfast at 7:40 A.M, this isn't bad, I've heard that breakfast is the most important meal of the day and it's supposedly supposed to wake me up.

----- *mom drives me to school:D*-----

"Well here we go again", I said to my mom as soon as she dropped me off.

I felt my soul drop, I had never experienced that feeling in my life- I don't know it felt weird. "Great new school.. again" I internally screamed.
As I was walking down the halls, I heard a bell ring.. honestly, it kinda freaked me out, I wasn't used to hearing that bell-

I head to class, realizing I wouldn't make it in time.

I couldn't find the classroom, suddenly I bump into a short (ish) brown-haired guy.

y/n- "oh uh- I'm sorry"
Karl- "hey uh don't worry, it was my fault sorry," he says whilst grabbing my hand and helping me up.

*we maintained eye contact for a few seconds*

karl's pov:
I thought to myself whoa, she's really pre-
fuck I whispered, as soon as I felt my cheeks burning.

karl- "uh you look kinda lost, are you new?"
y/n- "actually i am"
he started giggling, so did i.. why was his laugh so contagious?

He caught me deeply staring into his eyes

karl "are you going to show me your schedule or are we just going to st-"
y/n- "oh shit yeah uh let me just grab it real quick"
karl- "take your time, i'm already late anyways so if I do get in any type of trouble, i'm blaming you, new girl."
y/n- "right blame the "new girl". I said while giving him my schedule
karl- "hey, you actually got lucky, turns out we have the exact same classes, except you chose math..math over science? god."
y/n- "ha, wasn't really a choice, anyways uh should we start going to class or-?"
karl- "or.."
y/n- "dude just show me where the classroom is ffs"
karl- "okay, okay, follow me-"
y/n- "y/n"
karl- "oh, that's a really pretty name, in fact so pretty my mother has the same name"
y/n- "ahah, what's yours?"
karl- "mine is karl, karl jacobs."
y/n- "huh whyd you stop walking?"
karl- "how long do you think this corridor is? our class is here dummy"
y/n- "oh-"
he didn't even let me finish my gasp, he opened the classroom door-
teacher- "good morning to both of you, may i ask why both are 20 minutes late?"
karl- "well i was showing the new girl around, i wanted to make her feel welcomed"

we spent the whole class just staring at each other, it didn't make me feel awk, in fact, it made me feel safe.

blah blah *ring ring*
school ends ig😩

karl- "hey y/n! wait!"
y/n- "hi? you good?"
karl- "yea ahah don't worry, by any chance would i be able to get your number?"
y/n- "hm walk me home and find out"
karl- "the things i do to stay in contact with you-"
                       i blushed, i mean could you blame me?

we talked for awhile, i lived pretty close to school...

karl- "so i guess this is it?"
y/n- "guess so ahah"
we stared into each other's eyes without even noticing

karl- "so about your number?"
y/n- "oh yeah yeah, here aha xxxxxxxxx."
karl- "noted... you better pick up your phone if i choose to ft you"
y/n- "okay, okay i will don't worry. see you tomorrow karl!"
karl- "bye!"

i entered my house, quickly slammed the door and thought to myself... hm maybe school isn't so bad after all..
