No Heart Or No Crown

Too Cool

Miki POV

I stood there stuck in confusion trying to figure out what I did that was so wrong. I mean, I didn't threaten anyone or cuss. I looked around for just a slight clue on what I did wrong. I saw Ameryllis glaring daggers at me like she'd try to kill me once the teacher turned around

Levi was motionless like all his dreams had died. Mr Fumio was shocked. 'Just what did I do?! I don't get it! I can't handle it! Too many people are watching me! Too many!' I thought.

I just looked out the window as if I'd said nothing.

'I hate this school. It's just like my old school,' I thought, zoning out. One of Ameryllis's followers threw a paper snowball at me, which hit me in the face, snapping me out of my trance.

"What's your deal, freak?" I heard one of her followers whisper as the rest of the group giggled.

"Are you listening, Miki?" Mr. Fumio called out in an angered tone.

"S-sorry, c-can you repeat what you said?" I stuttered, quietly.

"I said you're shadowing Levi, and that's that. And you are in a student's desk. All shadows sit in the very back," He said with an irritated tone.

At first I thought, 'There are chairs in the back! I didn't even see them. And this is coming from a person who is never seen.' I turned around, and there they were-five desks in the back. But the desks were different than the ones for students. These desks were old, uncomfortable, and messed up. 'It's only two days. It can't be that bad,' I thought. Four of the desks were already filled except the one closest to the students' desks near the back door of the classroom.

"Hurry up, freak," Ameryllis whispered.

Just what did I do wrong? Why does everyone hate me? Is my existence wrong?

I gathered my stuff as quickly as possible to avoid causing a distraction. I started walking to the empty chair in the back. One of Ameryllis's followers tripped me, sending my stuff flying all over the ground. I felt a shock of pain in my foot as if someone shot me in the leg. I winced in pain as quietly as I could doing my best to hide the pain. I felt someone's presence next to me. I looked up, and I saw Levi.

"Are you okay?" he asked, trying to help me.

I smacked his hand away.

"No, I don't need your help. I can do it myself," I said coldly trying to hide the pain.

I grabbed my things, slowly walked to my desk, dragging my foot, and sat in my seat after setting my stuff down.

I looked at the door. Just focus on hiding the pain. You feel no pain. There is no pain.

Levi POV

Rejected. Again! Why does she keep doing this? Everyone likes me. Everyone will like me. I get everything I want. I sat there, motionless, until I heard Ameryllis still trying to get rid of my shadow. Like, give it a rest. You not going to convince Mr. Fumio to change his mind. But that rich brat is the least of my worries. I have a girl that I must make fall in love with me because who doesn't like me? A smirk appeared on my face as I daydreamed of her finally liking me. I'll come up with a plan. Tricks or princely charms have to work on her. First, I shall find out what her type is.

"What are you up to, Levi?" Leo said curiously as he grinned.

"None of your business, Leo," I replied.

"Another plan to date a girl in this class, I'm guessing?" John said.

"Who is it now? The new kid?" Luke said.
