-Meena's Arrival to School-
"Zane, wait up!" Louise called to Zane as Meena tries catching up to Louise. "What's Zane in a rush for?" Louise asked Meena as she slows down to meet with Meena's pace. "Well he knows that sign ups are coming up so he wants to practice a little bit before sign ups." Louise jerks back as she remembers something, "Oh my Gosh! I totally forgot! I signed up to be manager for basketball this year and was accepted! AND I have to start getting things ready and set before the session start!" Meena looks at her remembers that Meena too had promised Louise to help her with basketball since this is her first year as manager. As they slow down into a walking pace, they look through the fences to see boys playing basketball. "Who are you rooting for? I'm rooting for Zane. TEAM ZANE!" She says pumping her fist in the air. Zane turns his head and shoots Louise a smirk which made Louise's heart beat faster. I look at all the soon-to-be basketball members. As I look at all of them none of them catches my eye. I stare at the court with boredom. When I finally reached my limit I was about to leave, "Hey, Louise I'm bored. No one catches my eye. Let's go-" then all of a sudden someone yells, "COME ON ZANE! OVER HERE YOU BASTARD!" I look back at the fence to find who owns that warm feeling voice I heard. "There." I say to Louise as I stare at a boy with a golden aura. He gives me this very relaxed feeling and I can't help, but look at his very broad shoulders. His back is very well structured, his jawline makes me melt, everything about him reminds me of fall and gives me a warm feeling. Am I the only one who sees this? "What? Oh, him? That's a very interesting boy don't ya think? I think Zane said his name was Autumn. Also how do you not know him? He's Zane's best friend since the middle of elementary!" I shrug at her question. Zane and I are close, but he never talks about his friends and when he does its just one sentence and we end up forgetting hours later. "Hey, it's getting crowded here let's move over there." I nod and follow her to the spot she was heading, as we walk I feel a pair of eyes searching for me. I still have the guys image in my head, August... As we walk Louise keeps talking to me and I can't be rude at stare at the other direction where August is. As stop at the less populated part of the fence I see him again! But this time he was staring at me. We meet contact and he starts blushing and looks down, which causes me to blush and my heart beat to increase. His jawline, God please stop! His abs, the way he is holding the spare basketball, the way his sweat makes him glimmer in the morning light. GOD PLEASE STOP! Zane slowly walks up to Autumn and talks to him a bit. "Hey, Meena? What's with you and Autumn?" I look at her, but ignore her question and look back at the two sweating boys, but mostly at Autumn. As Autumn answers Zane he looks back at my gaze even Zane looks back at me, then all of a sudden Zane yells at me, "MEENA YOU WILL NOT HAVE MY BEST FRIEND!" I get flustered and angered at his words, "WHO SAID I WANTED AUTUMN!" Autumn looks down, blushing. I realized what I said and panic and I end up arguing with my stupid brother until the bell rings. God dammit why'd I have to be interested in my brothers best friend!

Okay all of you might ask: why the change of perspective? So basically I wrote different parts of this chapter on different days and I kind of got frustrated with the authors perspective or viewer's perspective and I was too lazy to delete the other half that was viewer's perspective so I just ended up doing FMC's (female main character) perspective. Although there will be chapters here and they're in Autumn's perspective and there might be some Zane and Louise perspective. Sorry for the inconvenience and horrible writing!😂 - D 💕
