The Johns

John Nate

"Why didn't you budge when Vonn touched you?" Jake said when we got inside the computer laboratory of our school. He looked into my eyes and his eyes were on fire.

"He was introducing himself. If that was his way if introducing himself, I just let him do his thing." I rolled my eyes. "Seriously why are you getting worked up by that?" I then realized something. "You can't be jealous, right?" Jake looked at his left but I can see him blushing.

"I-I'm just scared that you would be taken away by him." He ruined my hair then smiled. "I mean I don't want my best friend to be someone else's best friend."

"But was it really necessary to take me here to say that?" He laughed. We sat down then chatted when someone got in the laboratory. The boy was searching the room and when he saw Jake he came in completely.

"Jake there you are. The principal was looking for you." The dude with silver hair said. Are we even allowed to dye our hair? I mean I saw Vonn with that hair color as well and I swear Gale has platinum blond hair.

"Really? What for?" Jake said standing up. They moved away from me so that I wouldn't hear whatever it is they are talking about. Jake then went out leaving me with the dude that came inside.

This is awkward. The dude suddenly realized that I was here, he looked at me then smiled. He came closer to me, handing out his hand to me.

"Hi there, name's Nate. You must be Eri." We handshaked each other.

"Yeah that's right." We then released each other's hand. "Weird though."

"What's weird?" Nate asked.

"When Jake's friend saw me with him, they didn't knew that I was Eri." He laughed then sat beside me.

"Ah, maybe because I actually listen to Jake. The others do listen but they just forget those they think are irrelevant." He explained.

"So you're telling me that I'm irrelevant. Wow thank you for the wonderful first impression of you." I said. I was going to go now but Nate grabbed the tips of my hand.

"Wait." I turned around. "I didn't mean to hurt your pride but it was just something that could fit for their description." I kinda laughed since what kind of excuse is that.

"Apology partly accepted but still I haven't forgiven you." He grabbed my hand fully then we went outside of the computer lab.

Where are we going?

"No wonder you seem fairly familiar." I said as I looked into the bulletin board. "You're the school's student body president." I am seeing Nate's picture on the bulletin board.

"You're the first person who didn't recognized me. Who got your vote last year anyway." I looked into my left to avoid his gaze.

"I don't want to say." Seriously it's embarrassing. He came closer to me but I would turn around futher.

"Just tell me. It is okay if it isn't me." He said.

"I actually don't pay attention when a group goes door to door for campaigning so when it was the time to actual vote I just picked random people." I confessed.

He laughed. He actually laughed at me.

"Yah, why are you laughing. I was about to forgive you completely but then you just have to laugh." I said about to run for it, geez I'm an agent I can run fast.

"No wait, its just you seem so different from the others. No wonder Jake is your friend."

"Thank you for the compliment." He dragged me outside of school. "Come I'll treat you."
