first person imagine

everything started in grade nine, when i had just arrived at my new high school, taking a deep breath as i began to make my way to the entrance, gripping the cold metal handle in my hand as i pulled the door open.

i had arrived early, to make sure i wasn't late. i looked around at the front for a little bit, examining the art that was displayed behind a glass wall, secretaries sat in the office, and banners were placed on the wall for different sports.

i greeted the secretaries, waving at them as they smiled at me and nodded, i walked farther down the hallway of the second floor, running my fingers across the teal coloured lockers, making my way towards the staircase.

i took steps big steps, the echo of my sneakers hitting the ground bounced off the walls, when i had finally arrived on the top floor, i let go of breath i was holding in.

there he stood, a boy with dirty blonde hair and a thrasher hoodie. a pair of black adidas pants clung to his waist, his hand gripped at his binder as he used the other hand to put the combination into his lock.

at the time, when i had first seen him, i felt nothing, and this was grade nine. our relationship grew quite complicated through the year though.

november 7th, 2015.

"you jerk! tell me who you like already~" i whined, the boy i saw on the first day of school was named hikaru hitachiin. i talked to him for the first class, i got to know him. three months passed, and it felt like i had known him forever.

he looked down at his shoes, chuckling as we walked laps around the large field, his hands in his pocket, and he looked up at me with hopeful eyes.

"nope, i don't think that's a good idea," he said to me, looking at others in the distance and popping the "p" in nope. i playfully ruffled his hair, linking arms with him.

"tell me!" i said again, but he kept refusing to tell me. i shouldn't have been stupid, i should've known who it was. i didn't want to break his heart.

"well, i'll tell you that she's pretty. like, beyond pretty, she's beautiful. she's smart and she's unlike the other girls, i talk to her a lot. she makes me happy. whenever i see her, it's like my heart goes crazy, and i don't know what to do."

i was dumb at the time, i wish i wasn't so stupid, because if i had realized all of the signs, i could've already known who he was talking about, i didn't have to hurt him.

"can i guess?" i asked him, and he shrugged, i squished his cheeks, and he raised his hands in surrender, the sound of our shoes stepping onto the gravel was the only thing i could hear.

"hm, is it, kazane?"

kazane is one of my best friends, a girl who shared the same interests as hikaru, but she never seemed to like anyone. she enjoyed wearing guy's clothes, and i got along with her extremely well, i had known her for two years. i would've thought he liked her, because they were good friends, but he shook his head and laughed as i pouted.
