Virgo walks out of triple science with a blank face.
Of course he would. Of fucking course.
Fantasy's about romance are stupid. How could she assume the first person she falls in love with would love her back? She's was sixteen after all, what could he want with her?
Elliot meets her outside with a smile before it slowly fades."You okay?" He asks as they walk out the science block towards the food hall.
She looks back at him with a blank stare.
"He likes Amelié. That one that always get detention?" She pushes open the door to the food hall. "Said he doesn't like the fact I 'don't understand human interactions'"
She slips onto a seat at a table and pulls out a lunch box. Elliot sits down in front of her."What the fuck?" Elliot rolls his eyes. "He can't just say that to your face? And besides Amelié isn't even that fit..." He mutters.
Virgo straightens up before pushing back her tears.
"It's his decision. I can't change it." She takes her sandwich out and bites it. "Opinions are opinions. You can't change his mind."
"I can sure well change the way his body parts are arranged." Elliot shoots a glance at a dusty brown haired boy sitting a few tables down with a red haired girl and a few other boys.Virgo didn't understand mortal romance. Especially when Elliot would non stop talk about Veronica Survati - one of the new kids next to Krish and him.
Charlie Mynez had joined Brysmore in year ten. And since then she'd understood what Elliot meant. He was perfect. Tall, pale, curly brown hair that went down to his ears, golden brown eyes that sparkled in the sun whenever he was out playing football, a smile that her feel warm inside whenever she caught a glimpse of it at school and he could talk to anyone. She didn't know what she was feeling at first until she was explaining it to Elliot afew months ago.
"You gonna be okay, V?" Elliot voice shakes her back to reality with a start.
She looks at Charlie before back at Elliot.
Will I? She thought before nodding slowly, her expression not changing.
"Perfectly."Virgo dropped onto her bed, laying down and put her hands over her face. She lets out a long sigh before sitting up and turning to look at her mirror. The reflection in the mirror just makes her hate the day even more. Her eyes are red, tears slowly forming and her hair slightly frizzy.
She looks at her self for afew more seconds before letting the tears she'd been holding in since period two at school.
She looks away and puts a hand over her mouth and shuts her eyes. She knew mortal life would be difficult but no one told her it would be this difficult. It feels like her heart had just shattered into pieces and they had been scattered around school.Virgo sat there for who knew how long before someone knocked on her door. She opened her eyes and wiped her eyes.
She looked in the mirror and tried to make her self look like she hadn't been pouring her eyes out.
"Yes?" Her voice cracks.Elliot opens the door. Still in school clothes - minus the blazer. He folds his arms and leans in the door frame.
"You're not a very discrete cryer, Virgo." He says.Shit.
"You sure you're okay?" He shuts her door and walks in, sitting next to her.
She wipes her eyes.
"Of course. Why wouldn't I be?""Because you were literally just sobbing ok your bed you dumb shit?" Elliot raises an eyebrow.
Virgo couldn't help but smile.
"Fair play. But I'm fine."
Virgo knew she shouldn't lie. Elliot somehow allways found out that she was lying one way or another. And this was no exception. The look on his face just proved her point further."You're as fine as my sleep pattern. Was is Charlie?" Elliot asks.
Virgo nods.
"He's just a guy. There's more of them out there. That other new guy apparently had his eyes on you, Lewis said."
Virgo rolls her eyes.
"Of course you trust Lewis's opinion."Elliot shoves her shoulder.
"What's wrong with that!? Anyway, like I said, the world's not gonna end just because Charlie doesn't like you. I'm pretty sure Amelié doesn't like him either."Virgo smiles slightly. That was slightly comforting. But who was the other new kid?
"Elliot! Why do you have an hour after school tomorrow?!" A shout from their father downstairs.
Elliot rolls his eyes and stands up and heads towards the door before turning back to Virgo for a second.
"You'll be allright?"Virgo nods before Elliot walks out and shuts the door. She waits for the sound of his foot steps disappear before letting out another sigh. Of course she wasn't fine? She'd just been rejected by the one person she felt valued by and she was meant to brush that off? Virgo thought Elliot was meant to know everyone about mortal life? She takes off her blazer and drops it on the floor before turning her light off and lying on her bed and shutting her eyes, trying to hold back the tears forming in her eyes.
