~Hazel POV~
Sometimes life is hard, but every time it gets hard it will always get better. I learned that last year after my little sister Stella died in a car accident. She was my only little sibling and we were close so I took it hard when she died. She died during surgery after the accident and honestly I thought it would never be okay again but it's getting better. My two best friends Novah and Kenna have been by my side the whole time. My older brother knows about it but it didn't hurt him as bad because they weren't close but it still hurt him especially to see me hurting so badly because me and him are really close.
I'm a junior in high school and I've always been focused on my school, meaning I've never had a boyfriend. I'm always teased about it by this girl in my grade that is a couple of months younger than me named Athena. She thinks that the world revolves around her. She would always say things like "Hazel is it nice to know that you've never had a boyfriend?" and she will ask me constantly if I am a virgin as if it's a bad thing. In my opinion, being a virgin at this age shows how I'm more mature than most of the kids that aren't.
The bell rang and I didn't even notice that I was zoned out. It was only the second period and I already wanted to go. I have English now which is my favorite subject but Mrs. Walker is not a very good teacher. She didn't even like books so when we read aloud in class she always picked someone that sounded like a robot when reading. She wasn't nice either. I was walking to my locker when I was stopped by Kenna and Novah.
"Girl there is this new boy in my history class and he is sooooo hot," Novah said excitedly.
"What is his name?" I said interested.
"Zach," she said.
"That name just sounds hot," Kenna said from beside me.
"Well, he is," Novah said, heading away from us to go to her locker.
"Love y'all see ya later," I said heading to my locker.
After that, I headed to class. I saw that someone was in my seat so instead of going to sit in another seat I went up to the guy and said, "You're in my seat, can you go find another one... please." When he looked at me I noticed it was Victor. Also known as a player, and the hockey team's captain. I will admit he is super cute. He has light blue eyes with black fluffy, curly hair, his skin is tan and he is 6'3 which is tall when you are only 5'5.
"No, but you're welcome to sit on my lap." He said, smirking at me.
"Ugh, whatever."
I then just walk to the corner of the class and sit at the desk and Victor just looks back and smirks at me. I rolled my eyes at him and he just kept smirking.
The class flew by very fast and I was heading toward my locker when I noticed that Victor was by my locker. When I reached my locker I just ignored him and put my books in my locker and took my other ones out. I shut my locker and started walking away, but before I could get away someone grabbed my wrist. When I turned around I saw it was Victor.
"What do you want?" I asked him in annoyance.
"I need to talk to you after school. Can you meet me at the park near your house?"
"Why?" I whined.
"Please, I need to talk to you. Can you be there by 4:00?"
"Fine." Then I just walked away to my next class which was world history. I usually take a nap in this class but I couldn't stop thinking about what Victor wanted to talk about. The class was over and now it was lunchtime. I skipped lunch and just stayed in the bathroom for 30 minutes. I went to my locker and switched out my books. I walked to my last class which is art class. I'm horrible at drawing but I had to do art class this year since I didn't freshman or sophomore year.
The art class was the slowest class of them all. We had to draw a shoe which was harder than I expected. The shading was indeed the hardest part. I looked at my phone to see that it was 3:00 so if I got going now I would be able to make it to the park in time to meet up with Victor. I got home and changed into a simple black crop top with some mom jeans and my white converse and just brushed through my hair. When I got done changing I told my mom that I would be back before dinner. I walked to the park because it was only a 45 min walk and I liked walking. I also don't have a car and I don't like taking my mom's car. I was lost in my thoughts for 45 minutes apparently because I was sitting on a bench in the park when I got myself out of my thoughts. I got my phone out and it was 3:50. I was 10 minutes early. I just scrolled through Instagram for those ten minutes and then I felt someone sit next to me so I looked to see if it was Victor and it was.
"I'm here Victor so what do you want?" I asked blankly.
"I need a favor but I needed to ask you when we weren't around people from school." He said seriously.
"Well, what is the favor?"
"I need you to be my fake girlfriend." he flinched when he said it as if I was going to start screaming at him.
"Why?"
"I may or may not have told my dad that I had a girlfriend and when he asked what she was like I may or may not have described you, I told him that she was beautiful, smart and that she really loves books. Don't ask me why I described you. I just did and then my dad asked to meet her on Friday and I told him that she would be there. And she is you so can you please do this for me. I know you don't like me and that I'm a jerk to you but I really need you to do this." he practically begged me.
"You think I'm beautiful?"
"Yes. And you are sooooo will you do it."
"Ok I will do it but does that mean we have to fake date in school as well?"
"Yes. It's ok if you don't want to do it now that you know that."
"I will still do it."
"Thank you, Hazel. You are my hero."
"Don't flatter me, Vic."
"I like that nickname when you say it, gorgeous."
"Ughh we are only fake dating so don't get too used to it."
"I have a couple of hours to kill. Do you want to go do something?"
"Sure but what exactly is it?"
"What about ice skating?"
"Ok but I suck at ice skating so you'll have to teach me."
"I will, love"
"I like that nickname, Vic."
"Oh really so you want me to call you love then?" he said teasingly.
"I wouldn't mind it." I started to blush thinking about the fact that he might call me 'love'. I just love that name. When he realized I was blushing he just smirked.
"Come on, let's go to my car."
"Ok." I followed him to his car. It was a red jeep and all the doors and the roof was off. "I really like your car Vic. I've always wanted a jeep."
"Come on, the ice rink is only 30 minutes away."
