I wish there was a world....
A world with only me that existed...
A world..... Where...
My thoughts were interrupted by the sound of the teacher calling my name.
"Iris. IRIS!!!"
"Y... Yes teach!!!"
"Here we go again... Look, we are having a lesson but, you may have the permission to daydream... In DETENTION LAND!"
The class snickers at me.
I hate it....

I walk out of the classroom in defeat with my head low and tears falling slowly down my face.
"Dammit.... Mom's gonna kill me again..."
I walk inside the detention room slowly while wiping my eyes into my sweater.
Mrs. Bloomingdale is a really good person to talk to and I'm her favorite. She's so nice for a detention... Person... Why aren't the teachers like her?
"Oh, Iris. Daydreaming or sleeping in class again, were you?"
"Yeah.."
"Have a seat."
I pull out a chair.
It has graffiti stains on it.
Seriously another work of art by "SLAY"?
I start doodling in my notebook.
I'm just nobody... A weird 15 year old girl that stupidly daydreams in class... About things.. I'm such a nerd..

"So, how's Jack and Tina?"
"Oh, they're fine. I guess."

-A silent 5 minutes passed-

"You look dazed... What's on your mind, hon?"
"Oh... Um... Nothing.."
I look out the window, noticing that snow is falling.

"Love the winter, huh?"
"H.... Huh?!!"
"Yeah.... I get it... Winter is my favorite season too..."
"Yeah..."
I touch the window with my pointer finger.

*clack*
The door opens and I turn my head a see a boy.
A boy wearing a simple polo shirt and blue jeans.
A boy with smooth.... Sleek.... Black hair...
But there's something off about him....
He smiles at me mysteriously.

"Oh, you must be the new transfer student!" Mrs. Bloomingdale exclaimed.
"Yeah. Nice to meet you, Mrs. Bloomingdale, I'm Rick."
"Hehehe, oh what a charmer! You can sit next to Iris. She seems to have an interest in you," she smirked.
Wh... What?!!!!
I blushed a lot.
"Hm. Gladly."
H... Huh what?!?!
Well... I have to admit he IS kinda cute...
N... No!!! What am I thinking!!!
I shook my head, blushing.

"Hey there."
"Uh.... Um... Hi..."
"..... Since you like me..... Hold my hand." Rick whispered.
"Wh... What???!" I blushed.
He suddenly grabs my hand, and everything stops moving.
"Huh.... What's going.... On.."
"We're gonna get outta here."
"But... How'd you.... Who... Who are you????"
And he just gave me a mysterious smile.
He gets our coats, we put them on, and run off to somewhere.

He drags me into a forest, blindfolded.
"Okay I brought you somewhere special..."
He takes off my blindfold.
I was surprised.
Ive never seen a place like this before... It's kinda... Shady..
"Why are we here..? Your name isn't really 'Rick', isn't it?"
He puts his pointer on my lips, telling me to shush.
"I've got something for you," he said.
He gives me a stone.
It's not like any ordinary stone I've ever seen before.
It had a shiny surface. When I touched it, it seemed as fragile as ice and glass. It had shades of the color of snow.
"I assume this is... A gift??"
B... But we just met how could he!!!!??
I blushed hard.
"Thank you I guess..."
"Okay, no problem. Ever heard of the 'love rock' myth?"
"No....."
"These stones are rare and are only found in certain places. I found one in my garden, apparently. The myth says if you rub the rock three times, you will be promised a good future with your husband or wife."
"W... Wait... Do you mean...!!"
Is he proposing to me?!!!
I blushed even harder.
"Please, just do it...."
"But Wh-----"
Oh, I really shouldn't be rude... For once, someone likes me....
I rub the rock 3 times.
Then, the strangest thing happened.
I felt a piercing pain in my back, it feels like something was growing out of it.
I fell to the ground, weak.
"R.... Rick... What's happening!???"
He just smiles mysteriously and walks away.
"C.... Come back here you... You...!!!"
Then I felt a piercing pain in my heart.
"YOU TRICKSTER!!!!!"
All Iris's memories shattered.
She didn't remember anything.
She only remembered the boy who broke her heart.
And that's how everything began.
To be continued...
