I woke up to the sound of my alarm clock ringing.

I sat upright on the side of my bed, scratching my head trying to find a reason why I would wake up so early in the morning. I decided to go to the bathroom to splash my face with water to wake myself up. What I saw was a slim young man with black hair and green eyes staring straight back at me.

"Ohhhhh you're so handsome bro"
I said

......

Of course he wouldn't reply. It was my reflection after all.

Then I noticed a paper lying on the floor

I thought I threw this away already. Well I'll just throw it later after I finish school.

School.....

"What time is it?!" I said as I glanced at the clock

"7:05AM"

Damn! I overslept again. And it's the first day of school too. I quickly dressed up and ran as fast as I could


"HEY LUCAS! DONT FORGET YOUR
BREAKFAST" exclaimed the woman

She was in her early 40's. Her hair was long and colored like the sands of egypt, she was old but strong

"I know mom, geez you didn't have to shout" I said as I took a sandwich and ran outside

So about my mind reading ability.

I can basically hear people's thoughts. Kinda. I still can't distinguish thought and reality though so it's kinda messy
As long as I can see the person, I can read his thoughts

I hastily rode my bike to school. Luckily I arrived just in time for the Opening Ceremony

"Hah Lucas. Still late as ever I see!" said Isabella

"Bell, still loud as ever I see" I said as I sat on the chair

Isabelle Grace has been my best friend since we were kids. She's got that long hazelnut hair and bright blue eyes. She's pretty, smart and talented. Some people even describe her as "Perfect."

"Perfectly loud" is a term I prefer

"Stop calling me Bell! We're already at senior high and you still call me by that embarassing nickname" said Isabelle as her face turns red in shame

"Well, you're loud like the school bell so it fits you anyway" I explained

She immediately exclaimed
"NO IM NO-"

(School bell rings)

"See my point?" I said as I pointed the bell then pointed at her and laughed

She mocked my face then sat down as if nothing happened.

<I'll get you next time>

"What did you say Bell?" I asked

"Huh? I didn't say anything you weirdo" she said

Oh that was her thought I guess. Gotta keep this power under control or there might be misunderstandings

I looked around the classroom and still saw the familiar faces of my old classmates

"No one new I guess..." I said to myself

A tall man then came in and introduced himself

"Good morning everybody! My name is Mason Thomas but you can call me Sir M. And starting today I will be your new homeroom adviser" he said as he winked and smiled.

Classmates:
<Wooow he's so handsome>
<Yess a new teacher!>
<how old is he?>
<He's so cute~>

Ughh their thoughts give me a head ache. I need to calm down to control it

"Lucas, is there a problem?" Said sir Mason

"No it's ok I'm fine sir" I said while massaging my head

How did he know my name was Lucas?

"Before we start everything, let me first introduce a new student who will be studying with you" said Sir M

Classmates:

<Woah a new classmate!!!>
<I hope its a girl!>
<Please please let it be a cute girl>
<OH YEAAAAH>

Damn my classmates and their thoughts. It made my head ache stronger. Ughhhh calm down calm down.

The door opened
It was a girl with short black hair, Green eyes and slender body

"Goodmorning everyone. My name is Emily Pendleton. I hope we can all get along well" said Emily

All the boys stood up shouting in joy

Classmates:

"OH YEAH BABY MY PRAYERS HAVE BEEN ANSWERED"
"WOAH SHE'S SO PRETTY"
"SHE LOOKS JUST LIKE AN IDOL"

I have to admit, she is Gorgeous. Makes me wanna stand and shout too.

She continued to smile at everyone until our eyes met.

I don't know why but I immediately looked away. Maybe I'm not used to pretty girls looking at me

"Ok Emily. Go sit on that empty chair next to Lucas. Lucas please assist Emily in everything" said Sir M

Me?

"Yes sir M!" Replied Emily while walking towards me

Wait. I didn't even agree to it yet

"Nice to meet you Lucas" said Emily while smiling. She put out her hand waiting for a handshake

"You too" I said reflexively and shaked her hand.

My heart was beating so fast, my face heating up as if on fire.

What is this feeling? It feels weird
