𖤍 03. SUMMER ENDING

────〃★

The sun is shining bright from outside Jungwon's window, already reminding him of the days of being stuck in school for 6 hours, or more.
The bright colors plastered on his almond shaped eyes, a small tapping sound was heard from his right index finger, tapping gently and softly as he pursed his lips.

Remembering what his first year in highschool was like made him cringe, seeing his thick black glasses layering over his eyes, giving him a migraine everyday. His hair standing out a little too long, making him struggle with a mullet.

His slightly damaged skin, the only thing covering it being his small sticker patches, now that he thought of it, his acne wasn't even bad, coming to school with three small pimples as he would exaggerate as 10 of them all over his face.

Of course he was insecure back then, even now still, it was his first year in highschool, wanting to fit in with the rest. Getting to grow up and mature, becoming closer to an adult life, which he regretted not enjoying his middle school life, his grades stopping him from trying to learn more about the human world.

"What shall a poor vampire do now...?" Jungwon sighed heavily, pushing his body away from his window, ruffling his hair before making his way over towards his desktop, grabbing a book as he sat down on his bed.

Flipping through the thin pages he found his bookmark, his eyes instinctively already moving through the small words that were printed down. Each new word makes Jungwon more curious.
"Immortals have very interesting words.." he spoke with amazement, his eyes slightly growing in amusement.

"Damnit school, school, what a pain in the ass." The exhausted vampire repeated over and over, tapping his pen rapidly down on his blank notebook, the only words written being 'Goals For The Year'.

"Why must one suffer for education.." exhaling out a groan, Jungwon placed his pen down, taking off his new improved glasses as he felt his eyes relaxed from the exhaustion.

He opened a small drawer from his desktop, pulling out a sketchbook along with a freshly shared pencil, lightly touching the tip of the led Jungwon flipped open through the sketchbook finding an untouched page. He ran a hand through it, eyeing the cleaned white page before it would soon be drawn over.

With one small tap Jungwon began to get to work, working his way around the page, drawing a circle lightly before beginning to form the shape of a body, a person.

His eyes only focused on the paper and pencil as he drew around skillfully, tapping his feet down on the carpet with fast motions, an anxious habit of his, and others. Finally finished with it he had a proud smile on, looking down at his work before his eyes widened suddenly.

"I, this...girl.." Jungwon muttered out, tracing his index finger around the drawing lightly. Running a hand through his hair before he slouched down on his chair, clicking his tongue.

"I need to stop, I don't even know her..." It's was true Jungwon didn't know her, but she was a classmate of his for some time to time, maybe this year again he'll get to see her around.

Stepping foot inside a local store Jungwon looked around, dipping his hat down lower to cover his eyes before walking around the place. Hating the act of social eye contact he always made sure to look down whenever he was around a dozen of people, unfortunately at school it'll be harder for him, since hats we're never allowed.

He'd already been used to not wearing his hat at school but every time he started a new year he would get anxious all over again, as if it was his first day at school for ten first time again. Looking around he grabbed himself two notebooks and a pack of pencils, maybe a few erasers, highlighters, and pens.

Done with his shopping he made his way towards a register, paying quickly for his things and walking out of the store, being successful with not much talking or socializing with others. With a proud smile he made his way back to his house, without his abilities, a disappointment for the vampire.

Laying back down in bed Jungwon sighed heavily for what seemed to be the 100th time this day, staring up at the ceiling he shuddered at the thought of his hellish school days already coming to torment him.

"Damn school, and damn this summer, it was worse than my drawing skills." Jungwon knew he wasn't such a good artist but looking back at the drawing of Asha he couldn't stop himself from looking back at it from time to time.

It, amazed him, from how beautiful it turned out. As a vampire who wasn't interested in nothing more than blood for the first time in Jungwon's life, the real world soon started to interest him, finding himself wanting to know more of what humans go through, what they do for a living.

But, maybe more things will interest him more, by time, maybe even, a love interest.
"Will I have anyone familiar in any of my classes this year...?" Jungwon couldn't help but wander in his thoughts, once more.
