Never Enough

Chapter 3

Author note:
Okayy so just to make things clear, there are two of us. Call me " Monkey ", the other one is " Sotong ". Its our nickname to make it easier :) Most of the time, I, Monkey will write and Sotong will mostly give the idea.
Picture is Larry Junior.

Larry POV
School. The place where people act fake to impress other. That's the way in my life. Most girls here put on shit load of cake make up just to get boys to fall for their fake self. In school, i'm those " nerds " or teachers pet. Good grades, good behaviour and such.

But in public, gosh i'm completely different. Clubs, smoking, drinking, partying. You name it, i've done it.

I got out of my Dark Blue Range Rover and slammed the door shut, not knowing i closed it that hard until Tommo came out the other side with wide eyes.

"Chill mate. This thing here is expensive." "First day of school man. How am i suppose to feel? Happy ? Excited ? Jeez Tommo get your head out of your ass man. Just not in the mood for people right now get what i mean?"  He just nods as we made our way up the stairs.

As i enter the gates to hell with Tommo by my side, i greeted everyone who stared at me with a small and simple smile, hoping they won't mistake it as flirting. People these days am i right ? I zoned out for a minute thinking what life in high school will be like this year. All those parties, girls, studies and stuff.

Tommo strucked me in the ribs with his elbow, bringing me back to reality. I shook my head a little to blur out my thoughts and Tommo starts pointing at a short blonde chick. She seems to hold the hem of her shirt and fiddling with it, looking cute as hell, eventhough we can't see her face or something.

When she turned around, i swear my heart jumped out of my chest when we locked eyes. I played it cool by giving her the biggest smile i could spread on my face and stuffed my hands in my pullover pocket. I felt a blush flow to my cheeks as i looked everywhere besides that beauty that isn't too far from me.

Tommo kept glancing at me though, not really knowing what's going on in his mind. His so weird sometimes. One time he got jealous as hell when a waitress taking our order was being a filthy bitch. Touching my arm, twirling her hair, pulling her skirt up. Ew. Just no. No.

Again, I snapped myself back and  looked back to find her looking at my direction and winked at her, suddenly feeling the confidence built up in me, and causing her to blush as red as a tomato.

"Larry. Earth to Larry. Why you smilin' to yourself ? C'mon. I wanna smoke. Get this 'nervousness' off my chest. Literally." I hesitantly accepted knowing its the first day of school and not wanting my grades to drop, but he was right, the nervousness is taking over me.

Tommo grabbed my hand unexpectadly and pulled us out of school and behind a huge tree in the garden. We sat down and he took out 4 ciggarettes, 2 each.

I mumbled a 'thanks' after placing it in between my lips and lighting it up. I took it out my mouth to blow out the smoke when i realized that Tommo was staring at me with his ciggarettes inbetween his fingers.

I let out a soft laugh, "If there's something on my face, just say it already. Your making me feel insecure man."

He was like in a deep thought mode, and what seems like a minute or so, he snapped back to reality and continued smoking, totally ignoring what happened previously.

"You alright mate? You've been zoning out quite alot every since we stepped foot in that hell hole" The blue eyed boy suddenly spoke up.

I just shook my head with a small smile playing on my lips and flicked my second ciggarette away.

"Goddammit Tom. The least you could do was check the time mate!" I panicked as we brisked walk to out seperate class. He just shrugged it off and told me to meet him outside my class. I shooed him away as i took a deep breathe, turned the knob, maybe a little too hard, as i felt all the attention was on me when it opened.

" I didn't expect this from you Junior. Your minutes late. Care to explain?" Mr Betch said as he stood up from his chair and pushed his old spectacles up his wrinkly nose.

I lied saying i was getting some books in the library and we kind of argued for 2 minutes. He gave me a warning, expected more from me and sent me to find a place to sit in the huge classroom.

Oh gosh.

Girls in the front and middle row were smirking at me and some was even batting their obviously fake eyelashes at me. The guys were too lazy to even bother i walked in.

I continued my way up to the last row and saw a familiar figure sitting there with earpiece on. I smiled knowing who she is and walked to the chair beside her. She seems to notice me checking her out after i sat down as she took out her earpiece.

"Do you have a problem mate ?" Her voice so rough yet so angelic at the same time. I quickly found a cover up saying i wanted to hear her songs too. I knew she was nervous when she handed me one of her earpiece. I gladly took it with a smile plastered on my face and put it on, ignoring everything else except this girl.

I gathered up all my courage and turned to her to introduced myself right after class was dismissed. I placed her music hearing device on her palm, letting my hands rest on hers for a little while.

Her eyes was the most beautiful thing i have ever seen. Well Tommo one was. It was sparkling and a nice shade of light blue. I realized we were still standing here and i quickly took off, not before giving her a rare dimpled grin.

Tommo was smirking at me and i had to push him out to cover my blushing cheeks. "Later". I whispered maybe too close to his ears. His breathe hitched and i looked at him confused like hell. I decided to ignore him and went to my other class with him, Maths.
