The Joker

Chapter 1: "And here...we...go!"

"I am an agent of chaos. I do whatever I please, whenever I feel like it. Nobody can stop me. Nobody even dares to try... And why would they? They all know my name. They all seem to know how I became like this. But, you know, chaos... It's complicated. It can turn you upside down and inside out. But on the other hand... It's also fair."

Heath Zamora. A 20 year old boy like everybody else. Or at least, that's what people think. In school he is called 'The Joker', because he's the big prankster. He and his best friend, Alec Ellwood, have pranked everybody in the entire school, if not more than once. The nickname was not Heath's first choice though. The name reminded him of his father calling him a joke all the time. But after a while the name got a better meaning and so 'The Joker' is how everyone knows him.

Heath has short black hair and his eyes are dark as night with a dash of green and blue. He is tall, has a bit of a tan and has a trained body. Alec wears his short, chestnut hair in a pompadour model, has dark brown, almost black, eyes and a light skin.

And then there are Hailey and Ivy. Hailey is Heath's girlfriend, or was actually. He broke up with her, because his father saw he was getting distracted by her. "She's too much of a distraction! If you ever want to take over the family business you break up with that girl immediately!" his father had yelled at him. And so Heath broke up with Hailey to avoid having an angry father. Hailey has long, curly, platinum blond hair with one side shaved off. She has fair skin, a killer body and ocean blue eyes. Ivy is Hailey's best friend, a smarty pants, but also sweet and caring. Her dark brown hair is mostly in some kind of braid, but there's always one lock of hair falling out, gracefully hanging next to her face; against her glasses.

"Mr. Zamora! Pay attention, please!"  The high voice of a woman makes the whole classroom silent while everybody's eyes go towards the boy in the back. "My sincerest apologies, miss." He responds with a big smirk on his face while standing up from his chair and bowing down, all while keeping eye contact with his teacher. A soft chuckle is heard throughout the classroom. The teacher gives him an angry stare for a few seconds before turning her back to the class again and continuing her story. Heath sits down on his chair and leans backwards, balancing his chair on just the two rear chair legs. "You're insane."  a voice whispers softly. "And you're hot." Heath replies. Hailey and Ivy are seated next to Heath and Alec's table in class. "Don't listen to him, Hailey. He's not worth your attention." Ivy says, emphasizing the word 'worth' while looking Heath in his eyes. He doesn't look back, keeping his eyes on Hailey the whole time. "Come on. Just listen to me. Let me make it up to you, Hailey."  "You know you hurt me, right? Why do you even try when YOU were the one who broke up with ME?"  Heath stares at Hailey for a few seconds, not knowing what to say to her. She's right after all. Why did he broke up with her in the first place? Ah yes, his father told him too. 'The stupidest thing I've ever done.'  he thinks to himself. "I know. That's why I want to make it up to you. Please, just let me explain after school."  They stare into each other's eyes for a while. Heath knows Hailey can't resist him for long and looking her straight in the eyes always makes her weak. "Fine." she sighs. "What?! Hailey, are you crazy?"  Ivy protests. "I'm just going to hear him out, Ivy. Relax." "Sure, I'll go entertain myself after school then." she says while rolling her eyes at her friend. "Why don't we go do something together?" Alec says while leaning forward to look at Ivy, placing his face into his hand. "In your wildest dreams, Alec." She turns away and crosses her arms while Heath and Hailey laugh. And while Alec runs his hand through his hair he whispers while he grins: "She wants me."
