DARK MOON

CHAPTER 3

Chapter III:

LEVI’s POV

“OK Class, we have a transferee…. Mr. Phrye, could you please introduced yourself to everyone?”.  Mrs. Phillips said as soon as she placed her things on the table. 

I turned towards the class. “Uhmm.. good morning everyone, You can just call me Levi by the way.   Hope we get along with each other”… I hate introductions.  I mean, do I really have to say everything about me.  I don’t think there is too much to say anyway.

“Thank you Mr. Phrye.  You can take a seat.”  As soon as she said this, one of the blond girls sitting at the back waved her hand pointing to a chair near them.  She was pretty but I really am not in the mood to flirt right now.  I was about to choose the chair on the middle when my eyes were drawn to the girl sitting by the window.  The girl seems familiar… could she be her? .. even with those glasses, there’s this feeling that I cannot truly dismiss that she might be her.

I found myself walking towards her.  I need to know.

 “Is that chair taken?” pointing to it by glancing at it once.  She looked at me and didn’t say anything.  Her eyes seems to have a grayish color.  I couldn’t tell much since the glasses are blocking it.  Although I noticed her stillness . She was facing me but not really looking at me, like time just stopped from her.

 “It’s ok… the chair’s not taken!”..... The girl beside her said. When I look back , I saw her shaking her head a little

“Thank you..err..” I said trying to fish her name out…

“Elle… the name’s Elle”.  She smiled. 

“Thank you again Elle”.  I said going towards the empty chair.

Who is she?  I need to know.  I just need to hear her voice.  She looks like her but I can’t be too sure.  Her hair is held up in a loose bun.  It was not messy but in a casual way.  The glasses are not that thick and nerdy.  They were the simpler typed wired frames and if I’m not mistaken, base from the coating, it could be those type of transition lenses where the lenses becomes darker in color under bright sunlight transforming it to shades.  There was nothing neither fancy nor too geeky in those glasses.  She is wearing stone-washed fitted jeans, a white fitted blouse and a black cardigan and converse shoes.   I can say she likes to dress in comfort and not like those typical girls going for heels and skirts. 

Soon the bell rang… wait.. I need to talk to her … come on! Think!...  that Is when I saw the schedule in my desk.  As soon as I saw her standing up.. “Uh.. Hey!..  I was just wondering…, since I’m new here, is it ok if you could help me out with the directions?” Right… smooth…and utterly obvious..

She did not say anything… Great! Way to make an impression.

 “Sure!  Let us see your schedule!”  Elle  said. Although I was surprised she answered for her  “Forgive our friend here.  She is just a shy person… right Aisha?”  I saw her slightly elbowed the girl she called as Aisha.  Hmm.. What an interesting name….

 “Oh!  Right… sorry” Aisha said softly….  Was it her voice.  It is too soft and yet …. I noticed the paper in my hands and decided to give it to them.  Elle took it from me and after she did a quick scan..  “Wow!.. you got the same class as ours.  We can all go together!”  Clapping her hands.  Well this red headed girl is sure enthusiastic.  Wait… did she say we had the same class.  If it isn’t my luck.  Just what I need to know her.

“Oh by the way, this is Aisha and Joel”.  Elle introducing them to me.

“Hey, Joel here”. Saluting to me.  He seems funny in a good way.

“Hi… Levi…” I said.  Not too much on words.  I looked again at Aisha and smiled.  I just nodded at her and she responded “...Aisha. nice meeting you Levi”.

“Same here” I answered back.

I can sense she was a bit uncomfortable. 

“Okaaay… I think we should be heading now to our next class.  You wouldn’t want to get a detention on the first day of school….”  Aisha awkwardly stated.  I just can’t keep myself from grinning…

“..uh.. ok”  I finally conceded.  Take it sometime, besides, I share most of our classes with her and her friends.

Writer’s NOTE:

OK.. I just needed to write his POV.  I don’t want to drag the story too much.  I was thinking of making him a bit more of an enigma to all but then again I changes my mind.  LEVI will have his own POV in parallel with her especially when the story requires it.  I would like to make the story shorter by putting both POVs does not having for me to explain again in the later chapters.  I might lose track along the way.

Thanks again for the patience :D

Next chapter will be up hopefully in 1-3 days.  Need to write it down  soon before I forget about it.  If you do spot something or fill the need in correcting me… I would really really appreciate it…

Thanks thanks
