Dance Of The Nightshades

Him and his smirk

"Lyra wake up we'll be late, you dumbo" an annoying voice screams into my ear.

I sigh and turn over in my bed, for god's sake is it really necessary for school to be in the FRICKING MORNING!

Suddenly my head was doused with cold water.

Spluttering and furious I woke up to see my brother grinning like the complete and utter dork he is holding a now empty glass.

"You better hope for your sake that mom comes in here before I start beating you up. Did you really have to use cold water you DUMBASS" I manage to choke out as I shivered uncontrollably.

He ran off leaving me alone as I went in the bathroom to get changed. This is how life in high school is.

It sucks.

15 minutes later we arrived at school in my brother's car and he was about to go off when I had the perfect idea for revenge.

"hey baby bro try not to get beaten up today and stay safe," I said and tried to suppress my giggles as his face turned red. We are actually twins but I was born a few minutes before him and now I lorded this fact over him whenever I could.

He quickly went away before I could tease him some more. Suddenly I looked at the time and realized I was 15 minutes late to the first class.

Shit.

The first class was English and our teacher is a boring old geezer who rants on about Shakespeare and he hates it when people are late.

I quickly ran towards the class only to find the world's biggest idiot carelessly strolling towards it.

Derek Mikalson.

He is by far the most arrogant cocky and careless person you will ever have the misfortune to meet. He looked at me and gave his million dollar smirk which had girls falling over themselves.

"In a hurry to get to class little miss perfect. Unusual for you to be so late. Did something last night?"he said while I finally understood what he was saying and blushed as I said.

"You seem familiar, have I threatened you before?" I tried not to smirk, Gods! some habits are really infectious.

"Sarcasm, somebody's pissed off" he said as he casually slung his arm round my shoulder.

"Somebody needs to shut up!"

We reached the class and the old geezer....... Sorry our teacher gave me a lecture on the importance of being punctual that I totally didn't tune out.

I went towards the back and sat next to my best friend.

Daniel Matthews.

He is tall with that golden hair that no matter how hard I try remain curled.

"Late again aren't we" he smiled as I yawned and took out my books.

however I wasn't listening as I looked over to Derek who was making faces at me across the room. Honestly I don't understand how he is so popular seeing that he is childish.

Okay Lyra, you can't judge people for being childish.

I mean its not like I hid my brother's phone yesterday 'cause he was annoying the hell out of me but whatever.

He had it coming I mean he ate my chocolates. 

Nobody does that unless they have a death wish.

"Hey lyra! earth to lyra " Daniel shouted in my ear as he knocked on my head. I swear sometimes this guy is hella irritating.

"shut up"

he pouted at me like a lost golden retriever puppy. Seriously that's the only reason I haven't murdered him yet.

"okay fine, now lets study "

It was going to be a long day.
