The series of shuffling of footsteps, indistinct chattering and most importantly also most dreaded the school bell, series of groans and sighs left people's mouths as they started heading towards their classes soon it was only the scarce few who had the balls to skip class remained in the hall. And another important character of this story, Ashley Carrington, Grade 10 rushing to school becuase she had overslept and most importantly soon to be valedictorian or so she thought. Without further ado I present to you........................

"Heyy" my friend Alyssa; a new student in school greeted me, I reciprocated the reaction by waving, "Heyy Alyssa, Morning", "Morning Ashley" she responded with a warm smile. I just wonder how girls like her get bullied because of being new, luckily, I got her before the others could, we had classes together and she's a good friend, I fended for her behind her back all the time. She never deserved to be bullied nobody does, naturally being the hyper-caring older sister I am, I cared for her too, I stood up for her. 

Meet Alyssa: The new girl, 15 y/o, a grade younger than Me, shes a cute girl don't understand why people are bullying her, a bit chubby makes her a whole lot cuter, same interests as me, smart af really calm and long tempered

During the lunch break, as I sat next to Alyssa grumbling about how I didn't complete my homework and had it due next period, I really couldn't do it coz of all the yelling in the living room, damnit my -Dare I say- Birthgivers, were fighting again, I can't believe I have to put up with these two for another two years, isn't that just wonderful. I sat there making sure no one heard me and shut up after I saw Alyssa in the corner sitting alone, putting on my fake smile it was pretty convincing to her, well I don't blame her all of these people do , the just believe the act, and im grateful for atleast that. I was pretty smart straight A's a few B's here and there in languages, but better than C's right? Well proceeding I was really looking forward to going cycling with her later, Im glad I have her, I mean; understanding, friendly, kind and a listener. Sign me up for that, But most importantly Kiara, my princess and sidekick in sass, my one and only Maine coon

Meet Kiara: Named after the daughter of Simba from the Lion King, My maine coon Kiara is a 6 month old kitten, my parents bought me as a gift for scoring a 98% on the finals last year as they promised, I was real excited when they told me I'd be getting a whole friggin cat all in return for a few grades? Again Sign me up babess...... Well after about a year full of hardwork and constriction of enjoyment and fun, I was yet again the highest ranked student in my class. 

As I pulled out my favourite grey cargos and my tshirt and hoodie out of my, really needs a clean up, cupboard, I better do that before my parents find out, ehh, I'll do it later. I stuff my essentials into my rucksack, uh let's see, My phone, My water bottle, a protien bar and my earphones. I grab my helmet from the just cleaned bed and my keys from the keyplate and walk out to our apartment elavator and pressed 0, but unfortuantely, it stopped at the fifth floor where a tall guy, oddly familiar, walked in. The guy was tall had amazingly perfect teeth, but my fascination quickly died off as I spotted his retainer, seamlessley blended with his gums, But then again something caught my eye, this guy had fangs like legit fangs the pointy canines made me bat an eye at him, But the canines in his mouth did not divert me from the very huge canine standing next to me tongue out and tail wagging, it looked as though a lion and a wolf had an offspring greyish-gold fur, dark green eyes, he smiled at me,  being the good samaritan I smiled back, his hair was blonde but with a hint of brown and black fades hair and the dark ocean for eyes. My brain starts its imediate investigation as I took quick sneak peaks for my mind to sculpt a picture of him in my brain. I start walking towards my cycle and he follows, I start panicing for a bit as I stuffed my hand into my pocket to retrieve my keys to unlock my bicycle. I was a bit flabbergasted at the fact that he too had a cycle, what the hell? he has a dog,  is the dog gonna run beside him or some-, he started off, his dog obediently following him picking up the pace as he did, He started cycling a bit faster and the dog followed right next to him, I was even more flabbergasted now, this dog was a natural runner, but Kiara would just sit on the ground being grumpy garfield because she's wearing a harness. I followed him because he was on the same road I was on and slowly but surely picked up the pace too, overtaking him as I drift off to the right and he takes a left. I was a bit dissapointed- No! what am I saying? I was glad he left, my mind started the investigation deeper as I tried to get him out of my head, I reached Alyssa's building greeting her with a hug, Then I remebered him, Axton Rotaro, Valedictorian of this year's graduation or so he thinks, dumbass, I will have that Valedictorian speech one way or the other,
Anyways Alyssa and I decided to visit the neighbourhood park where 'Unfortuantely' we spotted Mr.Rotaro.  Amazing! how many times can one person bump into another. We didn't interact I walked around with Alyssa the wind blew through my face as the trees rustled and whispered in response, I was waiting for Alyssa to get off of her phone, I looked around only to find the Offspring of the wolf and the lion, the green eyed beast, his dog. I checked the collar "You can call me Atlas Rotaro" Ofc it inherited its father's last name, I pet the dog and he soon called out for the dog, "Hey!" I looked up, his pools of dark oceans met my honey brown eyes. I looked at him smiled as I held his dog for him, "He must've ran away when I was grabbing the toy" he smiled at me eyes clsoed as he rubbed the back of his neck flexing his shoulder muscles which were pretty buff, wait- WHAT, no- I meant, Damnit Ashley what is wrong with you, you idiot. After talking for a bit I bid him adieu and realizing he was a guy from a grade older than me, he was in 11 grade in my school, so 17 y/o, I see. Alyssa got off the phone, "So who's the new guy?" She asked with a smirk, I glared at her and gave her a look which immediately wiped the smirk off of her face, "Its no one just a senior at school, his dog came to me so I just...............uh......... returned the dog?" That sounded a bit absurd but alright. She grinned "Just returned the dog huh? well truthfully speaking he looks kindda sweet, no?"- "Yea he does, I guess. But im sure he has a girl already, and I don't like him anyways, so there's no big deal" -"Right.....No big deal" 
She grinned playfully as she responded. "Yes, no big deal, alright. wanna get coffee?" I was trying desperately bad to hide the fact that he had left and thank goodness he did................................
