Hey guys so this is my first story! Enjoy.
Chapter 1- Eli's POV
"ELI! COME DOWN THIS INSTANT! YOU HAVE THREE MINUTES OR ELSE I SWEAR ILL-"
"For fucks sake mom... Give. me. a... MINUTE!" I said, attacking my hair with my straighteners. It's ebony black and slightly wavy, which means getting up at the crack of dawn to singe it flat. I shook my hair and tousled it to shiny satisfaction while taking out my snakebites and shoving them in my pocket, Mom doesn't approve, and ran downstairs slipping on the last one and crashing at the bottom of the stairs.
"Eli, please don't run down the stairs and I've already told you NOT to swear in the house. Sometimes I wonder where I went wrong in raising you..."
"Thanks mom for that self esteem boost. Now going to school seems much easier, I feel liberated from my doubt and-"
"Eli please don't be sarcastic, you know how me and your dad feel about it."
I might as well be a prisoner in this house! one more year and I'm free to go live on my own. I've already saved enough for a deposit on a flat. "mom honestly I don't give one but I'm hungry so have you made me breakfast?"
"I had but you are being ungrateful so you can take an apple!"
"Fruuuuit?" I moaned. I hate the stuff.
"Eli, don't moan."
"Fuck you! I'm leaving this goddamn house! See you later bioach!"
"Right! That is it you are grounded you wretched boy."
"Mom. I'm a man, not a boy and p.s., try and make me!"
With that, I sprinted out the front door dreading the moment I would have to return home to the hell hole. I don't know what which is worse. School or home these days.
********
"Hey mate!" my best friend, Joey ran across the street to walk to school with me. he was the only one who never wore a jumper with his uniform, I wonder how he didn't freeze to death.
"Hey Joe! why the hell don't you wear a jumper it's like the middle of winter!"
"Mate it's September. chill your beans!" well that's exactly what I'm doing actually...
"So, seen any birds that might take you on?" I don't know how he didn't have a girlfriend. he had a mop like mine, chocolate brown hair and brown fizzy cola eyes, unlike my black mop and bright baby blue eyes.
"Nah, most are taken or blonde boobs. not my type mate just not my type anyway I'll see you later got to go to form!"
"Bye mate!" uh uh here comes Lucy. Lucy is my blonde boob girlfriend who I only got with because I felt sorry for her. she's also not my type. actually I don't know what my type is. I've never had a crush on anyone but I know for sure that mainstream cliques are not my type.
"Hey my Ewi-boo! how is my dark mysterious prince!" ugh I can't stand this any longer!
"Honestly Lucy," said her red head 'BFF for ever and ever and ever' "I don't know why you are even with that emo creep! he's a goth!" ok that one stung but I can take it. it's not like I don't get it often enough.
"Jancia! Do not talk about MY boyfriend like that! I c-can't believe y-y-yoooooooooouuuuu!" with that she collapsed onto my shoulder smearing makeup all over my school shirt.
"Hmm err, Lucy?"
"What's that honey-boo-bear?"
"I er, I don't really, well you see, em..."
"It's ok honey-boo everyone has been telling me it's ok if you want to leave me." Huh? What the hell? that was unexpected.
"Really? I mean if your ok with it it's just-"
"Eli I know! it's ok! in not disgusted!"
What the fuck? Disgusted at what? what is this bimbo on about?
"What?"
"That your gay! I mean it was kinda obvious you have feelings for Joey but I kinda hoped it wasn't true I mean-"
"What the fuck Lucy? I am not gay and certainly do not have feelings for Joey! Oh my God! Is that what people think! but I'm straight I swear! I'm leaving you because your not my type! I AM NOT GAY!" A few people have me weird looks but carried on chatting.
"Oh really?! oh honey-boo! I'm sorry! anyway let's walk to registration together." hmm I am sure I'm not gay. am I? no I am not. but-
"Hey watch it dude!" some guy with his head down, hood up and earphones in looked up.
"Oh!" he looked up his black hair falling in his eyes. I felt the urge to reach out and move it for him. he had captivating cold grey eyes looked straight at mine. they were amazi- shut up shut. up!!! Wow what was that.
"Hey" he said flicking his hair out of his face. he was slightly taller than me which is quite tall. I already top both my parents.
"Oh I'm sorry! Eli I've gotta go to registration now see you later!" she sang with a wink. damn she must have seen my reaction.
"Hey mate are you new?"
"Yep I'm Christopher! I'm in form... em" he rustled around in his pocket for a second. "11.5? what are you in?
"I'm in 11.6 so we are in the same building. I'll walk with you"
"No thanks" huh he doesn't want help? "I'm good." He shoved me out the way dropping a piece of paper behind him, smirking as he went. what an asshole! I don't think I'm gonna return this paper either. what does it say?
"0786455 1285 - call me ;)"
Ugh what a creep I'm not even gay but I smiled anyway liking his interest in me. I can tell this is going to be one hell of a day.
Christopher's POV
Cute. im gonna drop him my number. I'll bump into him accidentally. Then assuming he wants to help me I'll deny it and leave my number on the floor. edgy and mysterious. a perfect combination no one can resist. I will make this guy mine if it kills me.
