The Deadly Nerd (Completed)

Chapter 19

*Elliott's POV*

After I finished my homework, I thought it was a good time to watch some Vampire Diaries. I always loved the show, and just recently have I discovered a free app that lets you watch all the shows. NO MORE NETFLIX BILLS!

I watches a couple episodes in the 1st season, might I add I'm rewatching. I know everyone is just saying Damon is mean, but I always felt bad for him... Catherine rejected him, and Elena was just Catherine's dopleganger.

I had always been in a huuuge trance after I watch it and have always wanted to continue watching..even though I didn't have much time.

I closed my laptop, and laid it on the surface of my night stand. The night was strangely peaceful. And I drifted off to sleep just as peacefully.

I woke up to the annoying sound of my alarm signaling me to get up and ready for school. So I did... But in a slow motion.

I felt like my whole body weighed a ton and I moved barely. I hated the way some mornings did this to me..even if I got a good amount of sleep.

Putting my hair in a messy morning bun, I went to the bathroom. I looked at myself in the mirror and whispered to myself -

"GREAT! I'm such a mess. This should teach me to not watch the VD on a school night."

I continued, starting with my teeth. After I got ready, I packed some stuff in my backpack and left to the kitchen.

"Morning sis!" Conner greeted me and I waved to him unenthusiastically.

"Hey. Have you slept well, brother?" I said formally. I know he's my brother, but he left when I most needed him. Worst thing is...I couldn't light a cigarette while they were here.

"Yes. Thanks for asking... Want coffee?" He asked me casually. I nodded. After my coffee was in my stomach, I went to school with Lucas.

He knocked on the door and hugged me, said bye to my brother and we went off.
Lucas was sweet...caring..but deep inside he had his own demons. I was gonna uncover them.

We sat in the car as he started driving.
"Hey mind answering me a question?" I asked him, taking a glance at his big hands on the steering wheel.

"I wouldn't mind. " He said, still looking on road. I liked how dedicated he was. Made him sexy.

Did I just say that?

"Ummm... Why did you try commit suicide? I mean I know you've been under a lot of pressure,  but... Why not talk to me? " I asked him seriously.

I mean it's easiest to die. No one should take their life away. The bad will always go away.

"I guess I was insecure. I don't really know. Maybe it was grief. I mean you can't deny I was an asshole to you. Maybe it just means that I fancy you? " He sent me a playful wink and concentrated on the road again.

Today was rainy, a perfect autumn scene. If only everything wasn't as messed up.

"Really? So you fancy the nerd you once called deadly? " I chuckled saying these words. I lived for moments like these.

"Perhaps I always fancied deadly nerds?  You will never know. " He smiled as he turned right and entered the school parking lot.

I chuckled, grabbing my bag from the back seat. He went out of the car and came to open the door for me.

Such gentleman.

Argh shut up.

"By the way... I want you to have this... It was my mom's. " He said as he grabbed a box from his jacket pocket. He gave the box to me and when I opened it,  it revealed a beautiful diamond-platinum ring.

Of course I expected something expensive,  but not this.  It was so classic, yet so beautiful.

"Thank you. It is very dashing. " I smiled at him and kissed him on the cheek.

"I believe I saw something even more dashing than the ring in my life. " He said as he looked me in the eye.  I blushed a pink tint as we started walking towards the school. That's how my day began.
