Clouds cover the blue sky. Birds chirping their hymn. Pleasant atmosphere.

"Honey come for breakfast." Oh, that was my mum. I am
Serafina. A sweet and simple 16-year-old girl with teenage issues.
"Coming."

I ran downstairs as I was getting late for my school. I saw my father on a call shouting at a poor employee. My father is one of the richest businessmen in London. But we weren't rich brats. Okay, if you consider eating ice cream late at night without mum's permission then we are. By we, I mean me and my sister Julia.

I went straight into the kitchen and hugged my mum,
"Good morning," I said.
"Good morning sweetheart. Come have breakfast."
Minutes later, Julia entered the kitchen. Kissing my forehead she took a seat beside me.

"Ser, you look pale. Is everything alright?" Julia asked in concern. Let's not forget that she is the most overprotective sister of all time. Even the Queen bee of school fears her. She is considered rude. But she is the sweetest I have ever known. She adores me and cares for me. She never let anyone talk rudely to me. And not to forget the warnings she has given to the guys.

"Ser, how are things going on between you and Jake?" My mum asked me.
I groaned in response. Jake Smith, the football team captain, the richest kid in the school, the biggest heartbreaker, my boyfriend. Let's just say I am not very fond of him.
"Fine," I reply

"Just fine? Mum, she is lying. That guy is head over heels for her." Julia exclaimed. I rolled my eyes. She is correct. I don't know why that guy is so much interested in me.
"Well, that's great honey." My mum beamed in happiness.

"It's time for school. Bye, mum." I and Julia hugged mum and said goodbye to dad. Exiting the house, I saw the sky. It was different. As if it was indicating something. It was so calm. As if it wanted to indicate that a big storm is approaching. Sometimes I wonder why I get such feelings.

During the ride, Julia asked me,
"Ser, what are you thinking?"
"I was wondering why the girls in our school are crazy over Jake. To be frank, I never was." I mumbled. She broke into a fit of laughter.

"As far as I know, he is considered one of the hottest and most popular kids at the school. Though he is your boyfriend, that guy is the most appealing boy I have ever met. No offence." She said raising her hands.

"I never found him attractive. I mean I agree he is a great footballer, and good in his studies too but 'appealing', Nah!" I replied. She laughed at that.

"You are the first girl who doesn't like him. And see the fate, you are the one he chose. You are his girlfriend. None of those sluts." She commented.

I am with him for my dad. His father and dad are having some business together. It will be beneficial for the family if I date him. Though my parents never pressurised me to date him, for them I am doing this. I love my family.

We entered the school. Everyone's eyes were on us. Particularly me. Why? I hid behind Julia. I don't like attention.
"Why are they staring at me?" I whispered.
"Come on. Have you seen yourself? You are considered the most beautiful girl in the school. With a kind heart. Why won't they gaze?"

"I don't like it," I mumbled.
"Everyone, mind your fucking business Stop glaring at my sister," Julia announced. Everyone scurried in the corridor. Thank God!
I kissed her cheek,
"Thank you."

"Well, if it isn't my bestie?" I heard a familiar voice. There was my best friend, Elora Robinson. Another lifesaver.
She ran towards me and engulfed me in a hug. I hugged her back.

"Where is my hug?" whined Julia. We both chuckled at that. She hugged her.
"You two look beautiful. Like angels." She commented.
"Thank you." We both replied.

We were chatting but then we saw Ashley, the Queen bee, running in the corridor with her gang. Why?
"What happened to that bitch?" Asked Elora. She despises her. Even Julia. Let's just say the whole school. She is the captain of the cheerleading team. The most popular girl in the school.

We saw everyone following. I saw Brandon, one of my friends too.
"Brandon, what happened?" I asked him.
"Girls are saying there are three new hot guys in the school. And that's why all of them are running there. I am going and pulling my girlfriend out." He replied.

"Wow. More hot guys. Yummy. Great. Let's check out them. Maybe we have a chance." Julia winked at Elora.
"You people go. I have a boyfriend remember?" I replied.

"Come on Ser, it's never late to check and appreciate beauty. It's okay. Let's go." Ellora said before she and Julia dragged me towards the crowd.
There appeared three guys. Yeah, they were good looking.

The first one was tall, well-built and had brown hair. He had beautiful green eyes. He was looking calm and was trying to search for someone.

The second one was tall, slightly shorter than the first one, with blonde hair and greenish- hazel eyes like mine.

The third one was quite the most attractive guy I have ever seen.
Beautiful grey eyes, blonde hair, the tallest among all with well-built structure. Everyone was gawking at their beauty.

"Wow. They are the hottest people alive." Even Julia and Elora were impressed by their beauty.

The boy with grey eyes was searching in the crowd for someone. As if he was searching for oxygen. His eyes landed on me and locked with me. And everything faded. It was just two of us. As if the time stopped. No one else mattered.

Just him and me. I looked away from those magnificent grey eyes. I have never felt like that ever. But I have a boyfriend. I can't look at him that way. It's wrong. Once again I looked up and saw all three pairs of eyes watching me. As if I was the person they were searching for. The third guy was having a smirk on his face. I saw him mouthing something to the other two. It was something like, "amica mea." What does that mean?
Translation: My love
