The Guardian (Final Version)

3rd chapter: An encounter with fate

Mia's PoV

I had already finished eating my lunch much to my stomach content, when I heard someone exclaim as I walked towards the classroom.

"Mia! Wait up!"

I turned around to see Heart's face bashed with sunlight that was coming from the windows; it was such a beautiful sight that made me petrify. His eyes were shinning just like when he had entered the classroom that morning and his hair was messy in a rebel way which made him look very sexy. I shook my head stopping myself from having those thoughts and just focused on answering him.

"Do you need something Heart?" I asked but he didn't reply, instead he kept on staring. "What?"

"You called me Heart." he explained.

"Yes, isn't that your name?"

"Well yes, but is it not strange to call me that?" he asked with a slight worry on his face.

"I don't find it that strange, after everything you told me that's the most normal thing I've heard all day." I let out being honest. "If others hear it they'll just assume it's a nickname, nothing odd about that."

"Oh, I see." he nodded.

"So, do you need something?" I re-asked returning to the topic from before.

"Just company." he let out smiling.

"A sunny boy like you must have made lots of friends during lunch to keep you company."

"S-Sunny boy?" he repeated awed. "What is that?"

"Hahaha." I laughed, so there were some things I knew which Heart didn't. "It means you are someone who can easily be friend anyone, someone full of life, funny, nice, good looking, like the sun. You're the type which attracts people towards you without even noticing." after saying that I noticed Heart's cheeks getting red and his gaze was lost since he didn't know where to look, he was with no doubt embarrassed by what I had just said and looking at him like that made me realize even more how cute he could be. I couldn't stop myself from laughing at that spectacular scene which only made him more embarrassed.

"I-If I am a sunny boy then you are a sunny girl yourself." he retorted showing his tongue and I ceased my laughing.

"Unfortunately you're wrong. I'm not like that." I was staring at him and Heart was paying attention to what I was saying. "You've only been here for a couple of hours so you couldn't have noticed."

"Noticed what?"

"I don't really fit within the class, for me they are just people who happen to have classes with me, there's no deep connection."

"Why?" I could see a bit of sadness in his eyes but I wasn't ready to tell him the reason, at least not yet.

"Well you know, life's complicated and so on so on. It's nothing important though."

"It is important to have friends." he stated with a somehow determined look.

"I have you. Be my friend and I'll be just fine." I said while smiling.

"We are much more than that." getting his face closer to mine Heart exclaimed while patting my head. This time I was the one to become red while he just laughed and entered the classroom. Watching him do so I sighed trying to calm down, it was annoying how he could always get the upper hand of the situations while I was left either speechless or embarrassed.

Calmer now I too entered the classroom and seeing Heart was talking with a group of guys I decided to sit on my seat watching the blue sky outside of the window. The desks in the classroom where all individual and since I was on the second vertical row counting from the window and third horizontal row counting from the black board, and the seat beside me used to be empty I was able to admire the scenery outside just as much as any other student from the first vertical row.
