If The Past Could Heal...

Chapter 2 - Who's the girl

Declan's POV:

"Get up, come on" Hunter shakes me violently.

"Jesus man, I'm up, God" I roll my eyes and climb out of my bed. Surprisingly my dorm room is actually clean for once, hockey posters on the wall and no clothes on the floor, a win is a win.

Starting my second year in Swansdale Academy is a dream, hockey training nearly every day as captain and doing it all with my best friend, I couldn't think of anything better, well, a girlfriend would be nice but I guess we can't have everything right?

I get dressed into a black long sleeve compression top, some grey sweatpants and trainers and stalk to the bathroom and quickly wash my face with cold water. I peer at my phone and it lights up showing me it's 8:02 am. Fuck. We are supposed to be present in the first lecture 2 minutes ago!

"HUNTER, HURRY THE FUCK UP WE ARE SO LATE DUDE" I shouted grabbing my books in my arms and heading out the door.

"COMING!" Hunter shouts behind me as we run down the stairs to the Sycamore building.

We are running past the Kiora building when I trip over a crack in the concrete and drop my books everywhere. Hunter bursts out laughing and it booms throughout the fields. I focus on picking up my stuff when Hunters laughter suddenly subsides. I look up as he winks at someone. Disgusted, I turn to see what he was looking at, but the frown falls from my face when I see her. Hunter is looking at some blonde girl that's giggling and but my attention is on her. Our eyes lock and neither of us can manage to look away. She's beautiful, her eyes are a light brown that look like warm hot chocolate, her beautiful brown hair falls down her back and curls at the ends. Wow. Just Wow.

"Shit, here comes Edna" Hunter whispers, and surely enough Mrs Clancy, or Edna as we call her, because she wears thick glasses and has a black bob, is stalking towards us with an angry expression decorating her face.

"BOYS" she shouts at us "YOU ARE DISRUPTING THIS TOUR AND ARE VERY LATE TO CLASS, SO STOP MESSING AROUND AND HURRY UP" she stalks back to the clump of students she was leading around. Ohhh, those students must be first years doing their first day tour. That girl and I still hold a stare.

"I DON'T SEE YOU MOVING BOYS" she shouts again, startling us and we scurry away to the entrance of the Sycamore building.

"Man, Edna's scary" Hunter says.

"Yeah, well if your ass helped me pick up my books instead of winking at that girl, we wouldn't of had to face her wrath" I roll my eyes and shove him.

"Don't even dude, I saw you staring at her friend" he shoves back.

I ignore him and enter into the lecture hall. At least I have hockey training later. I sigh as I sit in my seat and prepare for more scolding's from our lecture teacher.

Authors Notes:

Sorry for the short chapter! It's a lot harder to write in a male perspective but I think it sums up Declan pretty well so far. I really hope you guys are enjoying it so far!
