I've been cycling my whole life in this town, it's just today that everybody seemed to be a morning person. I see people watering their front yards, reading today's newspaper with a coffee, and kids already waiting for their school bus which will probably arrive thirty minutes later.

"Old man!" I waved to Mr. Grells as I passed by his house which totally smelled like cookies and then I realized - I haven't had breakfast yet. Way to go, Wendy! Say hello to ulcer! Another day without breakfast. I was told that it is actually better to not have dinner than to not have breakfast. Guess what? I blew that off. I can't possibly eat when I'm running late for my 7am class.

I parked my bicycle in my usual spot. That's what you get when you've been cycling your whole high school life, everybody presumes that the spot is reserved for you.

"Any number raised to the power of zero is one. Therefore, this equation..." My math teacher then mumbled away. Last class for this morning and it is too boring. I'm too hungry to listen, let alone take down notes. I can't believe I woke up early to attend this boring class.

"Excuse me Sir! Can I use the bathroom?" He stopped writing on the board and faced me.

"I don't know, can you?" He asked me while he fixed his eyeglasses. That was my bad. I should've used may instead of can but I'm not going to admit it in front of my teacher 'cause I'm evil.

"Yes sir, I can! So if you'll please excuse me." I grabbed my backpack and zoomed out of hell. I had no idea hell was boring until this morning.

I don't know but the hallway leading to the cafeteria seemed so long when you're hungry. I spotted an empty table near the window overlooking the oval. Everything is yummy when you're too hungry to even think about it.

"Hi!" I heard somebody say so I looked up.

"Can I sit here?" He said, pointing to the seat in front of me. I don't feel like talking to a guy today because I just broke up with my asshole boyfriend and I would like to eat my sadness away.

"I don't know, can you?" I asked him imitating my teacher's accent. I'm pissed, please stop bugging me already.

"Woah! Easy there, tiger! I was just asking." He said, defensively raising both his hands in the air. "And yeah, that's our math teacher for ya!" He laughed.

"I.am.not.an.animal!" Finally putting down my favorite sandwich.

"Woah! Okay! Okay! I will sit here and whatever you say, I'm sitting here." He laughed and took the seat in front of me. Okay, there boy! Thank you so much for being so persistent! And by the way, there are other empty seats and tables here and he chose to sit here and annoy me. Perfect!

"Why do you want to sit here so much?" I asked him and then took a bite from my sandwich.

"I just felt like it." He answered casually and took a paper bag full of food from his backpack.

"You just felt like it!? Wow, you're one annoying asshole and you have food for like three meals in your paper bag." I said pointing to his paper bag. He ignored me and continued to get his food out.

"Are you gonna eat all of that?" I curiously asked him.

"Nope. You're gonna eat these with me." He smiled, proud of his handiwork.

"Huh, really? How many times have you done this with other girls? Tell me, Senpai. You know you can always talk to a complete stranger." There might be poison in this food. I'm not gonna risk my life eating these. PLUS HE'S A TOTAL FREAKING STRANGER, FOR PETE'S SAKE!

"You're stereotype is killing me softly tiger." Wtf?

"My name is Wendy! It's not tiger! You asshole!" I said narrowing my eyes at him.

"Okay then, Wendy. Hello, I am Peterpan." He said and held out his hand for a handshake.

I slapped his hand away and said, "It's not nice meeting you and I don't believe your name is Peterpan."
