"But he's like, so nice and sweet and I can't even help it I don't know what to do! he won't even notice me.." My best friend, Rose, babbled about this cute guy in her Biology class. She's been chasing after him for like, two weeks now. And that guy has no idea.
To my right, I see my other best friend, Nathan. He was staring at the floor while listening to Rose complaining about her non-existing love life. Poor Nathan, he literally has the biggest crush on Rose. He told me that when we were out shopping for Rose's birthday.
To be honest, I wasn't surprised.. I've seen it coming. And also, I'm their number one shipper.
Can't you just imagine it? Rose and Nathan, I swear they'd make the perfect couple, only if Rose opened her eyes and saw how Nathan truly liked her.
"Violet!"
"Yeah.. um, what?" I said to Rose. Wow, I've been daydreaming about her future children with Nathan and she was still talking about that guy..
"What were you thinking about?" Nathan asked me.
"Oh, it's nothing.. I was just thinking about homework. I have a lot." I lied. well, it's not technically a lie, I do have a lot of homework.
"Seriously? you're the biggest nerd ever why are we friends?" Rose said sarcastically.
"Because you wouldn't graduate this year without me tutoring, and helping you"
Nathan laughed at that while Rose rolled her eyes at me, but eventually smiled.
The bell rang signalling that the 4th period has started.
"I have Maths, I should go now.. I'll see you both next period" I said grabbing my books and running to my class.
I can't be late to class. I've never been late. ever. I'm a straight A student and I have a perfect attendance. I can't afford to be late!
Just imagine me getting rejected to my dream college because I got late to one of my classes. I'll never be able to-
BAM!
I crashed into something, or into someone, and my books flew into the air.
"I'm so sorry I wasn't even looking I was just late to class and I started running but you came out of nowhere and.." I didn't finish my sentence.
Because right in front of me, stood the same boy from the coffee shop. smirking at me while I probably looked like a rag down there just gaping at his glory.
"Are you following me?" I said dumbfounded.
"You wish, sugar" he answered laughing, probably enjoying this. Jerk.
I ignored that and took my books and papers from the floor. I'm already 6 minutes late to Maths.
"Wait what's your name?" He shouted while I continued running through the halls.
"My name is I'll be late to class if I stayed here any longer. Bye." I said hurriedly and left.
Finally. Mathematics Class.
I opened the door, and that caused the whole class to turn their attention to me. Great.
"Would you like to explain why you're late Ms Skyes?" Mr Serrano said. I don't like him, he's like the meanest teacher ever. I remember once he stopped our lesson because a girl had a stomach virus and kept groaning. he said to her 'Goddamnit if you're having a baby out soon please leave my class and birth it out of here, I'm trying to give a lesson.'
"I'm sorry I was just on my way until I bumped into someone and-"
"Young lady, we're not on a rom-com movie, so save your 'I bumped into someone and they helped me to get up and I felt like love at first sight' for later. Go take a seat and open P.247" He said and the other classmates laughed at that.
I hate you, Mr Serrano.
I took a seat and started solving the problems, that's easy.
☆Phoenix Brightly's POV☆
I saw her again today. And damn is she stubborn.
We bumped into each other, to be honest, I actually thought that she was the one that's been following me. But it turns out that we go to the same school. It's kind of weird, I don't think I've ever seen her before.
She's a nerd. Probably a huge one.
That explains why I haven't seen her before.
She also wouldn't tell me her name, but I'll eventually find out.
As I was picking up my notebook that fell when we bumped into each other. I saw a peach coloured folded piece of paper.
Weird, I don't have any paper that's pink.
I took it anyways and opened it.
MY BUCKET LIST
1- Skip school for a whole day
2- Get my adrenaline as fast as possible
3- Sneak out to go to a party
4- Break the rules for once
5- Scream on top of a hill as loud as I can
6- Finish a whole diary
7- Learn a new language
8- Go on an adventure
9- Ride a motorbike
10- Say yes for the whole day
11- Dance under the rain and make it look badass
12- Go to an 80's themed diner
13- Take 7 Polaroid pictures of things that I find beautiful
14- Never fall in love
What?
This must be hers. But.. A bucket list?
That's interesting.. Wait.. is she hitting the bucket soon?
Pfft. Don't be stupid Phoneix. It's probably some stuff she always wanted to do but couldn't because she's a goody two shoes. Who would hit the bucket and write on their list 'Dance under the rain and make it look badass'
I folded it back and put it in my pocket and took out my schedule to see what class I have next. Maths. I hate maths.
Why bother going? I'm late anyway.
So with that being said, I went to the detention room. I won't waste an hour and a half of my life listening to an old guy talking about Logarithms and some stupid shit that'll never be useful.
"Phoenix! my man, I've missed you. I've been here with Dylan for a whole period and it felt like I was babysitting him." My best friend Asher said. what a weird guy. And Dylan, My other best friend rolled his eyes at him.
This'll be a long, long, day.
