Heaven and Earth (ON HOLD)

Chapter 1

"Mom, dad, I need to go." I said as I went to the living room. I saw my parents watching the television.

"Oh Angel, you look so lovely today. I'm sure every guy will go after you." My mom complimented. I want to argue with her because I'm just wearing my usual outfit - sweat shirt, a pair of blue jeans and my old pair of white Chuck Taylors but I just let her be.

"But before that, they need to pass me first." dad said.

"Mom , dad, stop talking about nonsensical stuffs and I really need to go. I don't want to be late for the first day of school. Bye" I hugged my parents then we exited our house

"Good luck sweetie." They both said in unison.

"Thanks, I love you." I said then I turned towards the road. I heard the door closed which means they already entered the house.

It's the first day of classes and as I enter the school hallways, I saw people gathering around with their own cliques. But I'm a solo flight this year after what happened to Sydney and I. It's a long story but to cut it short, she betrayed me. Speaking of the devil, I can see her already found a replacement and believe it or not but her new - found friend is no other than Stacy Clarkson, captain of the cheerleading team, which now makes her part of the populars. I on the other hand was declared as Eton high's 'lonliest loner' if there's even such a thing.

I can still remember both of us mocking and insulting those people who love to be admired and adored but now she' s part of them, I just can't believe it.

As I open my locker, some of my books fell on the ground so I begin picking them up. I felt someone behind me so I turned around to see who's this mystery person. And to my surprise, it's just Matthew Henderson, the most popular guy in Eton high and every girl's dream boy but for me, his the annoying jerk who irritates me every single day of my life.

"Need help?" He offered.

"No thanks, I'm almost done and besides, your friends are already waiting for you." I saw the girls behind him glaring at me.

"Oh them?" He turned around then he returned his glance at me. "Don't mind them and they're not my friends." He said indifferently.

"No it's okay so just return to whatever you're doing awhile ago and besides I'm do -" He kicked the books away from my hands. I at the same time let my mouth agape for what happened.

"No you're not yet done." He smirked. He leaned down to grab my books.

"Here you go." I took the books away from his hands. I placed them inside the locker then I closed it hardly which created a loud noise. Many students turned to my direction to see the commotion. I didn't mind them instead I walked towards my home room class until somebody grabbed my wrist. I turned my head to see who is it and of course it's him.

"Why can't you just say thank you?"

"Thank you? Are you out of your mind? If I remember, you kicked my books away from me so why would I?" I asked.

"Why are you always mad at me when I show kindness towards you? You should at least thank me or show appreciation for what I have done."

"Because I know that you're just doing it for your own pleasure. And besides I know that you hate me and I also hate you and we're each other's enemy for as long as I remember so I know that what you're doing is not sincere." I pulled my hand from him and I went to my classroom. I saw many people looking at us but I don't care because my first day is officially ruined.

Before we can go to our first class, we went first to our homeroom class to check the attendance. Our class adviser is Mr. Crawford and I guess he's already in his fifties. He called our names alphabetically.
