Through the young years of any teenager, love seems to be the most important thing in the world. Parents will hassle you about grades, but tell you not to fall in love. It only makes it seem more enticing, does it not? And it's everywhere! If Gabriella can be a damn genius and have Troy then why can't regular high school students in real life?

It really did feel like everyone was in love these days at Pacifico Academy, even through those uniforms, they were able to fall in love with one another? Down the hall before class started, you see it everywhere. The pretty girl with her matching boy and the pretty boy with his matching girl.

Boys were only after the girls, and the girls were just as hooked on the boys. Some wanting to fall in love, others just wanting a taste of as many as they could seduce.

There was one boy, there is always that group of boys that all of the girls and even boys drooled over, and within that group? There is always the most popular one. And at Pacifico Academy? It's Elijah King.

A pretty boy indeed, the girls go absolutely mental over his 75% African- 25%Mexican features. He has skin dark as a chocolate bar, a perfect, chiseled face, a cut cleaner than the six figure ride he takes to school everyday, and the one feature that was most unique to him, his icy blue eyes. It was like they glowed in contrast to his dark skin.

On the school's football team, the captain and of course, the quarterback, he is every girl's quest. But he seemed to have a strict type that almost no girl fit, his ex, Madison seemed to fit it minus the fact that she lacked a personality that wasn't the latest season of Chanel.

Ever since that breakup, his love life was a mess and he was damn good at hiding it, he let no other girls into his life. None except three. His mama, Camilla, his sister Cora, and his best friend since diapers. Yeji Hwang.

Everyone, repeat, everyone thinks they are friends with benefits. They just cannot fathom that the Yeji Hwang and the Elijah King are just friends. People that attractive don't just stay platonic, right?

Actually, it's completely possible if you are not each other's type and one of you is so gay, even your two middle fingers are so much closer together than natural because of... your gay experience. The gay one? The girl.

The whole school seemed to assume she was straight because she wasn't out so publicly, the only people who know are Elijah, her step-brother, Dex, her parents and her hookups who were also closeted or from other schools.

But was it not completely obvious? She wears the guys uniforms for crying out loud and is casually best friends with Elijah. If she hasn't fallen in love yet, then she must be gay.

"Now, I know what you mean when you said you don't like kissing girls with crazy piercings like that." The brunette with hip length hair laughed with Elijah, they were at her locker as she got her stuff for her first class after lunch; the fourth class of the day. She visibly cringed, "I mean, if you're gonna have it, take care of it, damn! I couldn't even kiss her. She was sooo sexy, but I just couldn't. I thought I was going to get an infection."

"Yeah... some girls just don't take care of 'em and it's not cute. Wait, but you told me you got a hookup at that party?" Elijah responded, nodding to all his guy friends in the hall as they walked by.

"I did, I called Neveah again..." Yeji responded, carrying her books at her side with one hand and putting her other hand in her loose pants pocket.

"Nah... bro." Elijah sighed and Yeji threw her head back in regret.

"I know! I know, fuck! Hooking up with your ex is foul, blah blah blah, you tell me all the time-"

"Because you keep doing it..."
