**************
I wiped the sweat that coated my forehead with the back of my hand as I ran like my tail was on fire. My breaths were shallow as my feet moved blindly. I couldn't remember why I was running.
Was I being chased?
Though the reason I was running was an enigma I refused to stop. Stopping would just lead to my downfall, I was sure of it. I kept going forward the wild curls of my hair flowing behind me like a cape.
I was invincible.
A yelp escaped from my lips as I fell to the ground. My bare foot caught in a purple vine that wrapped around my ankle like a chain. Only then did I notice my surroundings. Tall monstrous trees with purple leaves reached towards the sun that was peeking behind the clouds almost fearfully. As if it was hiding from the creatures here on the surface. This forest though tangled with flora seemed nearly too quiet.
And then I heard it, footsteps. I tucked my head into my arms that laid sprawled in front of me in hopes to disappear.
"Marissa get up," A voice said as my body was shaken. I woke up with a jolt my eyes scanning the classroom with utter embarrassment. I looked at my boyfriend Jason his green eyes lit with amusement.
"Thank you for joining us Ms.Carson", Mrs. Rubin said with a raised eyebrow. I nodded my head in response, my caramel cheeks hiding the blush within my cheeks.
"How long was I knocked out?" I questioned Jason with a whisper. My fingers tracing the carvings within the wooden desk.
"A couple minutes nothing major." He replies stopping my hand from tracing by intertwining our fingers. I smile. Though there may not be butterflies, our relationship was comfortable, familiar. We just worked and who could complain about simplicity when it came to romance? We've been together for nearly 2 years, and today was the start of our junior year.
"...Partner up," Mrs.Rubin commanded. Crap, I have no idea what we're doing. I get up from my seat next to Jason immediately pulling down my cheer leading uniform's skirt, my spot being replaced by Connor his best friend and teammate. The skirts were cute in theory but the lack of fabric causes a omnipresent fear of over exposure during the school day. I walk over to my best friend Nova her red hair placed in a bun with black frames sitting on her nose.
"Hey Ginger ail," I joked taking a seat next to her.
"Not funny, I told you to stop calling me that years ago," She responded with a frown.
"You know you love it," I replied my finger poking her in the rib cage, she didn't even flinch.
Poke.
Poke.
Poke.
Poke.
"Stop before I cut you," She glared, I retracted my finger.
"So what are we supposed to be doing anyway, it's the first day of school why are we even doing work?" I asked staring over at her paper not so subtly.
"Do you ever pay attention Mar?" Nova questioned with a laugh. I shrugged my shoulders, before raising my hand.
"May I please use the bathroom?"
