Lucian's P.O.V-
I walked into school with no confidence at all. This is the last place there is that she's been. I have to find her before the next Sapphire moon, or the Obsidian's can come and get her or worse they would kill her. First, I have to start with classes. The bell for first period to be over rang and I rounded the corner to go to Art Philosophy when someone ran into me and fell. "Ow!" She squeaks. Oh crap. "You ok?" I asked worried. She looks up to me and I see the bluest eyes ever imagined. She blushes, hmm that's cute. "Hello? Are you ok?" I ask again. She blinks a little then replies, "Oh! Yes, sorry and thank you for the concern." I stick out my hand as an offer to help her up and she takes it. As soon as I grabbed her hand I wished I never did. Her hand was like lava and I almost burned myself. Thankfully the girl released my hand before I ripped my hand out of her grasp. The weird thing is she looked at me and then her hand seeming a little confused. Is she the one? She has to be. I looked to see if she was alright but when I looked she was already halfway down the hall running like her life depended on it. What a weird girl.
I start walking to Art Philosophy again, think about the girl and her hot hands. I see the teacher waiting for me outside his classroom. He's a short man, maybe in his 50's and he has greasy gray hair. He sees me coming and turns to greet me. " Hi, Lucian welcome to Art Philosophy. My name is Mr. Fletcher and I will be your teacher." " Hi Mr. Fletcher, it's nice to meet you. I'm very excited to learn about the Philosophy of art." I say with a fake smile. " Oh that's good to hear I just wanted to say hi and make sure you're not nervous when you walk in." "Thank you for the concern, but I'm ok. " "Great let's go then."
I walk into the classroom with Mr. Fletcher, I looked up and immediately see in the back the girl I bumped into, drawing something. Mr. Fletcher gets done introducing me and was about to put me next to the short blonde making googly eyes at me when I urged him to put me in the back next to the girl. Put me next to the girl in the back not the blonde. I said in my mind. "Nora can you scoot over and allow Mr. Donovan to sit next to you?" She looks up and notices me but says nothing as the teacher says her names again. "Nora?" "Oh yes?" she says shaking her head to clear something from her mind. "Please welcome Lucian by letting him sit next to you." "Oh sorry, sure." From the front the blonde whispers, "Looks like emo's can get nervous around new hot guys too." Thanks for the compliment, bitch. The girl blushes but then quickly took her sketchbook and hid it as I got to the seat. I wonder whats in it. I decide to greet her before sitting. "Hello, I guess we meet again. I don't think I properly introduced myself, I'm Lucian Donovan." I say sticking out my hand to test what happened this morning with her hands, again. She says hi and turns her head away to look out the window. I put my hand down and just sat down. I feel something weird for this girl, I don't know what it is though. I just stare at her trying to figure it out the familiarity when suddenly she turns her head around and looks at me. I see her eyes again and they're different, they're glowing bright blue. She stares for a minute and then blushes turning her head back to look out the window again. I couldn't help it, it was too cute so I giggled a little.
After the bell rang, I hurried to lunch. I was planning on walking with Nora but she was gone before I could say anything. When I neared the cafeteria I saw her walking. I call out to her. She turned around and I asked "I was wondering if you wanted to have lunch together, that is if you don't hate me." "Oh, I'm sorry if I gave off a bad impression. I was just not in the mood at the moment, but sure I would lo-" "Hello Lucian, I'm Stephanie Mist, it's nice to finally meet you. How are you liking our school?" say the short blonde as she pushes Nora out of the way. "Oh it's nice, there's a lot of nice people like Nora." I say while looking at Nora. Stephanie and her little squad all turn to look at Nora. "In fact I was just inviting her to eat lunch with me ." "Why would you wan to sit with her? Come sit with us, you can sit next to Nora tomorrow. Isn't it ok Nora?" Stephanie said with disgust written all over her face and in her voice. Nora looked like a frightened kitten in front of a wild dog. I really want to punch this bitch. Nora replies softly, "Yeah sure I don't mind." "See, come on the line get's long if we stand here." Stephanie says as she loops her arm into mine and pulls me towards the cafeteria. I look back to see a disappointed girl looking at me, so I waved and smiled. She waves back at me and turns to walk away.
I don't like Stephanie and her friends they're all irritating and meaningless. "Hey Lucian did you do any sports before coming here?" asks a big guy with red hair. "No actually, I never really tried to get involved in anything because I never stayed long." "Oh are you good at anything? You could try out for football." "I'll think about that. Thanks." The only thing I've ever done is fly around for training. Stephanie got up from where she was sitting and came to sit next to me. To be honest she was way too close for my liking. "So exactly why did you move to our small town?" She asked. I scooted away from her replying, " Well, I was looking for something important, so I've been traveling looking for it or maybe I should say her." Stephanie looked a little shocked. "Who is this girl you keep traveling around looking for?" She says with bitter jealousy in her voice. I didn't like the look she was giving while thinking about who I'm looking for, so I got up and left just as the bell rang for lunch to be over. "Lucian wait!" Stephanie called from behind but she could catch up to me I was already out of her line of view.
As I'm walking to my next class I see Nora walking to her's. I catch up to her and grab her shoulder to get her attention. She turns around quick and looked at me scared like she was expecting something bad. "Woah, sorry there tiger didn't mean to scare you." I said releasing my grip from her. She calms down a bit after see that it was me and says "Hi sorry it's not a very good idea to sneak up on me." Is she in danger, I thought angrily, so I ask "Why's that?" " Well a hand on the shoulder means getting slammed into the locker, so yeah." After she said that she looked down with pain in her eyes. Oh crap what do I say now. "Don't worry, a hand on the shoulder from me means we're buddies." I say with a nervous smile. "We don't even know each other besides our names. How are we exactly "buddies"?" She said with a change of tone in her voice. Kittens sassy hmm. So I finally ask her "Oh, well then who are you?" She looked at me poker face then turn her head forward she began to explain who she is in her image. "Well I was abandoned as a baby and a nice Japanese lady picked me up, which explains my name. I've been moving around a lot for some reason, so it makes it difficult to fit in anywhere. I've never had a friend because I move so much and now that you think about it, I move every time I tell my mom that something weird happens at school." I go still. "What kind of weird exactly?" I ask with a serious tone as I stop her. She looked surprised but continued "Well when ever something unexplained happens or someone injures me we pack up an leave. Like this one time a strange kid in my class punched me in the face, leaving me with a big bruise. Obviously I freaked out and ran, I found a teacher and they called my mom. They asked me question and I told them about the kid but for some reason he just disappeared like he never existed. My mom later packed up our stuff and we moved." My mind is racing, what is this could she be the one? "Exactly how long has this been going on?" I ask. "Hmm now that you ask really since middle school it started with just stares now its getting worse." "How worse?" "Well now strangers on the street are coming up to me when I'm somewhat alone and ask me weird questions like thing about me really. I was scared and ran ever time but lately they've been stalking me or trying to attack me but i would run every time and we would move. Nothings really happened to me here so maybe it's stopped." She says with a shrug and no concern in her voice. I can't believe whats happening to me right now, after all that searching I've finally found her.
Hi, it's the author. I apologize for not saying anything up until now. I have a request for the people who are reading this. I would like your support on righting this book. Please tell me if there's any mistakes ( I know there are a lot) and also tell me I you like the book so far. Also in chapter one there was a picture of Nora but imagine her with longer hair and more bluer eyes and hope you like what Lucian looks like. 😘😝
I plan on uploading a chapter when I feel up to it, which is probably everyday or ever two days. I also have some questions:
1. How are you liking the book?
2. Who's your favorite character so far?
3. Do you think Lucian should end up with Nora?
Thank you so much for reading and shout out to my friend who's helping me write this, Astrikx.
