Ava's eyes filled with shock and concern, she gasped as she laid one of her slim hands over her mouth.

"How, may I ask?" She asked after a long pause.

"Well, umm... It started like this," I said as I launched into my story.
There were the gasps and glares from Jen and Ashley as I told my story, again.

"WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?" Jen and Ashley shouted angrily which earned us a few stares from the students passing by. Jen's brilliant teal eyes filled with anger and despair.

"Could you be louder?" I said quietly to Jen's outburst.

"You met him less than 4 hours and y-oo-u KISSED HIM?" She roared again as Ashley gave her a reassuring squeeze on the shoulder.

"Umm... Umm..." I stuttered as I grasped for the right answer in my head.

"Oh my god, why Iris, why? Jen is right, Iris. YOU'VE ONLY KNEW HIM FOR LESS THAN A DAY!" Ashley said as she gripped my shoulders not too gentle. Her jade green eyes shown as she gave me a hard stare and frowned.

I bit my lip, and started to speak but the school bell interrupted me.

"He's the one, I know it's him," I muttered meticulously after a short pause.

"What if it's not? We're just trying to look out for you," Jen said as her expression darkened.

"You know what?" Ashley said and then whispered into Jen's ear.

"What? What?" I asked continuously as they nodded to each other. I groaned at their secretive conversation.

"You'll see," Ashley and Jen said in unison as they flashed me an evil smile.

I gave them a puzzled look as we entered our crappy school.

"Excuse me, Iris right?" A guy said as he tapped my shoulder.

I turned around and found myself looking at an unknown face at school.

He had sparkling amber eyes and other sharp features. He wore a grey graphic t shirt that fit him just perfectly to show all his biceps and triceps. He was about a few inches taller than me. Cute, I guess.

"Yeah, who are you exactly?" I said. I was originally going to say,"What do you want from me?" but he was being polite so might as well go with it.

"My name is Javier Diamondfire, and I was asking if you know an alluring girl named, Adeline?" He asked politely.

"Yeah, she's my best friend. Why'd you ask?" I asked as I raised an eyebrow.

"Do you think I should, ask her out?" He said anxiously.

Okay, by now I would be bursting out laughing because he could've just did it. Then I realized I didn't know him and should probably do a second take. He better be good for her. I also realized he was that clueless so I just went along with it.

"She'll be happy to say yes," I said with a crooked grin. I guess his sparkling amber eyes were a nice contrast to her electric blue eyes. He smiled back and said his thank you and shortly walked away.

I wanted to spend the rest of the time of break in the school to avoid the sun from being tanned. I walked down the hall and I heard voices, very familiar voices. I walked backwards to listen and realized it was Ashley's voice.

"WHY THE HELL WOULD YOU KISS HER THE DAY YOU GUYS MET?" Ashley shouted angrily. Then I realized she was talking to Onyx. Before he could say anything back, Jen interrupted him.

"I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU ALREADY KISSED HER! ARE YOU A STALKER?"

I took a deep breath and did a face palm as I walked towards them.

I'm different, but I'm not special.Where stories live. Discover now
