Elizabeth and the Kingdom of Lights

Baka's Theory

I came into my 1st block class with a tardy slip and a tiny bit of hope. (Hoping my teacher wouldn't punish me with public embarrassment..)

"Elizabeth." Mrs. Sanders spoke sternly. "It is only the 2nd month of school and all of your tardies add up to 6. Her face turned bright red. "Now you can go sit, please."

There of course, was only one seat left and that was next to this...weirdo. I hate to judge people but he is always staring down, or staring at me. It makes me feel very insecure for some reason. But, I bet it's not any bad intention.

Hey! I was right. He stared at me with his green eyes, sort of creeping me out. I looked at him, sort of frightened. I didn't know what to think about him.

School carried on into the 8th Block.

The bell finally rang. I just couldn't stand it anymore. 365 days of hell. That's school, by the way. No offence to any teachers or stuff like that.

I walked to my bus stop, and sat on the bench. And oh, to my surprise. It was him. "Elizabeth.." He whispered. "I walked to him, "how do you..." He pulled me over, "shh...let me explain it."

He had me more worried by the minute. First he stares me down every day, now he touched my arm. NOW HE KNOWS MY NAME?!

"Elizabeth. I think I know you." I rolled my eyes, "duh, Baka. We are in the same first block." He stared coldly into my eyes after I called him that. Most of the time it was more warm, but it was colder now. Like if you are in California. One day it's hot like hell and the next day it's cold, freezing you down to bits. Not that that that ever happened.

"I DON'T MEAN DAMN FIRST BLOCK." He yelled. "Do you think I'm that much of an idiot?" I nodded, and then I laughed. He rolled his eyes.

"You don't know who you are." I looked at him strangely, and then laughed even more, "Yeah, Baka I don't even know my name," I said. Pfft.

"Listen, you are from a different planet. You are the princess there." I looked at him. "You believe me, don't you?" I snorted. "Yeah. Of course I do. I'm an alien buzz buzz."

He was getting annoyed, I could tell. "Do you need me to prove it?" He asked. "Do that please!!" I spoke over laughter. He rolled his eyes. "Call me. And come over on Saturday." He left his phone number on my hand, it appeared out of nowhere. And he left. Anyway, my bus was here!
