Pathways To Love

Chapter 1: Casual Days

Love is a very strange thing, sources of love can be found in similarity as it can be found in the opposite. Love is a bond that keeps us together but can also make us choose the most stupid things for happiness that may be delusory, but in which we can find comfort.

They were from the same town, it wasn't very big, it was pretty average being distinguished by being a very pretty and comfortable place to live. As a bonus, they even had a private high school where  both our prince and princess attend. They didn't meet until they went this private establishment and it was during those years that they'll live an innocent awakening fulfil with passion, anger, sadness, joy, compassion and maybe even love. ('ll grow very strong feelings that at once will make them feel confused, euphoric, heartbroken, fulfilled and maybe even a soulmate.) Their story is one of the opposites that attracts and completes each other, but it doesn't start quite on the right foot.

The princess's name was Elliot, and as a matter of fact it wasn't a woman, that was just the nickname one particular guy liked to call him, a bit of teasing and a bit of secret admiration. He was a more reserved person, he liked to keep to is private life, he wasn't however shy in the slightest, he wouldn't care to talk to anybody truly or almost. He wasn't also a lone wolf at all, he had few friends that he liked, but he wasn't enjoying the company of many.  He was well known through their school for having a very sharp tongue that would slice any opponent his way, be it student or teacher, however he learned from his mistake and would show a lot of restraint with his teachers. He was a bit smaller than  the average guy, it seemed he stopped growing at 5 foot 6 inches. His hair was mid long, always nicely done, his hair was a very dark brown, with some slight lighter brown hidden in between. He also styled his hair by making small flips wings like on the side of his hair making him have quite the unique style.He also had to wear glasses because he couldn't form afar with his hazel colored eyes.

He had two confident that would serve as his best friends. The first one being August, a tall handsome guy built a bit bigger than the youth around him with deep green eyes, short hair medium brown colored. He was quite popular amongst the girls for his look and personality, always there for his best friend, acting as the knight in shining armor, smart and just landed a spot in the swimming team. Elliot and August knew each other from childhood, they were five when their fete collided and ever since never separated. True friends they were. August  found love quite early, she was a very beautiful and artsy girl named Amanda. However, she would always come second if Elliot was in trouble. He would get suspended a couple of times for fighting some bullies that went too far in his opinion. They had quite an excellent friendship, a healthy rivalry between the two of them, aiming for a better grade than the other. They could tell anything to each other or that's what they liked to believe. Their closeness often led to speculation but it was only speculation, they were just that friendly toward one another.

His second confident was a girl that transferred in the second year of high school, her name was Maia. She was around the same height as Elliot, she had long curly red hair, she was very eccentric, she loved to have side projects and big ones at the same time, otherwise her mind would go over to analyze everything. She had a very perticular skill, like a sixth sense, she could almost read mind of the people she talked with. She was very good with people too, but she learned to keep to herself, some people got scared that she could understand one's soul so fast. She and Elliot met at their lockers, hers being right next to his. She just decided that if she stick around with him, interesting things are bound to happen,she just knew and she just told him, he was surprised at first but they did end up pretty close friends. She would, like August, defend him too when the vultures and hounds would attack him. That was the one thing she didn't understand about many of the students at that school, the restless bullying. Most of the school problem wouldn't be know to the public after all they had a reputation to uphold.
