Waiting for the Sun

Chapter 2: All According to plan.

Amity Blight has the wrinkliest brain on planet Earth, according to herself. She had a plan today. The moment Luz Noceda tried any shit, she had a response. Because Luz was the one who was obsessed with Amity. And of course she would be, she's a Blight. Blight's are beautiful, they are smart, and they certainly won't be outdone by an asshole like Luz.

Amity stepped out from her morning lecture hall, and began the trip down the hallway to go around the outside of the central plaza. She stepped outside, and a gentle breeze welcomed her. It was just as sunny as it was yesterday, and it gave Amity that extra pep in her step. Her badass steps, because Amity Blight was a total badass.

In fact, Amity was feeling good enough today, to pull out her phone, and take a look at herself in the camera. Yes, her skin was paler than mayo, but it was flawless. Her earrings glittered in the light, the little signs of anarchy that accompanied the white My Remical Chodemance t-shirt and necklace perfectly. Her hair still had plenty of color, no need to touch it up today. And the dark roots peeking from the front of her head added a nice contrast, giving her a look that would make her turn her own head.

And she did. Because Amity Blight felt on top of the world, three hours of sleep be damned. She took a few selfies, and as she was studying the angles, the smile creeping onto her face in a rare bout of self confidence and ego, she ran into Luz.

"I-I'm so sorry, I wasn't looking where I was going, I'm really, seriously super sorry!"

"Makin' sure you look good before you see me today, Blight?"

There went her ego.

Amity looked up, and god damnit, why did Luz have to be taller than her? It was intimidating, it was unfair, and it was only ever so slightly attractive.

What am I thinking?? Stick to the plan, dumbass!!

"N-No. I just. I just feel good today, ok?"

Luz looked Amity up and down, and smirked. "I mean, I gotta say, I can't blame you. You should be feelin good."

What did she say? Was that a compliment? Did Luz Fucking Noceda just compliment her? Why was Amity's face turning red?

Amity glared up at Luz, who took a lollipop out of her back pocket. She offered it to Amity, who wordlessly refused, to which Luz shrugged and popped it into her mouth, which drew Amity's attention to her lips for longer than it should have. She wasn't blushing, it was just hot out today. She wasn't blushing. Luz Noceda was not making Amity blush.

Reaching into her bag, Amity grabbed the USB stick from the night before, holding it up and letting Luz take it from her. No way was she going to touch Luz's hand. That would just be weird.

"Hm..Oh, thanks, forgot about that," Luz said, plucking the USB from Amity's fingers and tucking it away in one of her many jacket pockets, "'Preesh."

"You're welcome."

Amity decided she had had enough of staring- Having to look at Luz for now, and cut the interaction there. As she made her way around the taller girl to continue on her path to class, and gather herself to stick to her god damn plan that she made specifically for this, she suddenly found herself heading to the ground.

Amity yelped, a small thud following it as her stuff hit the concrete. She caught herself and looked back just in time to see Luz bring her foot back in, looking over her shoulder.

"God, you're a fucking loser, Blight."

The girl twisted her lolly, pulled the stick of it out and flicked it unceremoniously at Amity. It landed on her face, leaving Amity to look on in shock, as Luz simply walked away. After standing back up and ensuring her phone was ok, Amity gathered her things and flicked the spit covered stick off to the side, wiping her hand on her pants.

Well, there goes the plan.
