FLASHBACK

I can't stop thinking about those eyes. Those beautiful emerald green eyes. Eyes as green as a forest and as deep as a blackhole, in which I want to fall . I know it sounds cringe, but that's exactly what I feel.  Never have I ever seen eyes half as beautiful as those in my life.

Back to the present, I am sitting on the fourth bench with Lia, my childhood bestie while Mr.Emerald eyes sat on the sixth bench( the last bench), alone, Guess he's not much of a talker.

Well that's too bad cause I love to talk. Our teacher, entered class and told Mr. Emerald eyes to introduce himself.

That was when I got to know his real name. He introduced himself as Ace Blade. Ooooh what a hot name !!!! That was when I noticed his whole appearance !

Shit ! Is he some God or what !! How can someone look so handsome  !!

Nope!! Calm down !! People are not what they appear to be ! For all I know he could be a rude ass or worse a pervert !!

But then again my heart says that he could be ten times more nice than the boys here.

No, enough about him lets concentrate. After his introduction the best/worst thing that could ever happen in my life happened !!

The teacher told Lia to go to the sixth bench. No its not that. She told ACE to sit next to me !!

Oh my god ! How am I going  to concentrate in class !! 

Well, the day is coming to an end finally. Just one more periods and we are good to go !! Like Ace and I though, we never really talked to each other except for him borrowing my pencil and my number ! Well don't come to conclusions just yet, he asked for the number to ask me for notes.

One thing I noticed about Ace is that, he is a very reserved person. Like he doesn't at all talk to anyone. He hasn't made any efforts to talk to anyone. Its like he doesn't want anything to do with is world.

And me being a very talkative person, I find it really hard to not talk. Because even if I initiate a conversation, he just replies with one word answers and thats really awkward.

So its just both of us being quite. Never did I expect myself to stop doing the one thing I do well for a guy !! "TALKING !!!!!"

 Its Arts now, and I am not bragging , I am really good at drawing and it appears that Ace is my competition !!

 The teacher told us to draw whatever comes to our mind and express it on paper. I never think of a topic for drawing actually. I just let my mind wander and my hand would automatically draw what I saw on the paper.

Finally , I completed my drawing.

Then, I looked at Ace's. Damn , his was so beautiful. It had a deep meaning. I can't help but feel that he is in bad times. I can easily interpret such drawings because I draw such things all the time.

 It makes me feel uneasy, and helpless. I hate feeling helpless.

The teacher is really like amateur, like she didn't even understand the drawing. She just smiled at it, said it was very nice but told us to draw something positive and sunshie-y I guess. 

Well how's that possible mad woman. A true artist can draw only if he feels and I certainly don't feel all positive and sunshine-y.

And by the look on Ace's face, I could say that we both are on the same page. Yay ! we have something in common.

And that's the end of school !!

What a day !!
