Miss-fit

Travel back in time!

All, I could do was stare, all he did was stare. And after 10 long years of staring, I finally came to a conclusion. The only safe option for me now was to run.

And so I use my long legs to speed me out of the school grounds, not really caring that my hair was flying behind me. I'm not even going to lie, it felt good to finally feel the wind rush through my white locks.

I looked back and saw he was staring at me, still bewildered at the sight. Stupidly I forgot to look forward and my run came to halt as I slammed into a tree. The force at which was too much to handle I stumbled back and eventually fell.

I looked up to the sky as it was all a blur. My head pounding from the physical contact. Then a figure hovered other me.

"hey, are you alright!" from the voice I could tell it was none other than golden boy himself. Yep-you guessed it- Adrien Maxwell.

"Yep, I am totally fine. I mean u just witnessed me slam into a tree. I am SOOO fine." Sarcasm dripping from my tone.

He offered me a hand, but me being my stubborn self I declined his offer a helped self.

"You know, you are surprisingly chatty for someone who failed trying to run away from me!" he said. I expected him to be smirking instead, he was staring at my hair.

I blushed, my cheeks becoming red instead of pink because of how pale my skin was.

"Woah, you have purple eyes. Are those contacts?"

I quickly put my hood back on making sure it covered my eyes and my hair. I wish that, I could travel back In time make sure none of this happens.

I started to walk away from him. But he stopped me with his words.

"Hey, I know u probably want nothing to with me. Even though I did nothing wrong to you. But it's cold and its late and I feel like you could really use a ride home." He said with a glint of hope.

I turned around and walked towards him.

And I did what nobody expected, I hugged him. At first he was taken back and I think he was confused. But then he hugged me back.

Nobody has ever offered me a ride home, and nobody has really shown me kindness. No, not ever, partly because I hide in the shadows. I don't get close to people. But for some strange reason, I felt like I really needed a hug. I haven't received one in 11 years.

I was really surprised by my actions, as I was still hugging him. The play boy. The golden boy.

Why, because he offered me a ride.

I slowly let go of him, to found he was smiling

"So, I take that's a yes then."

I simply nodded too embarrassed to actuallyspeak.

             

He started to walk towards his car, as we currently in the back part of the school. The car park is located in the front of the school.

I followed behind him silently.

We approached a sleek sports care. He got into the driver seat. While I got into the back, he looked at me confused.

I mean I know what a car is, I just haven't been in one, in like forever. He started the car, and it roared to life. I looked out the window as we zoomed past other people walking. We sat in an awkward silence. Of course it would be, I hugged him.

"hey where to do you live.....?" he drawled on.

" There is a...a care centre at the end of this road, just drop me of there."

"erm ..okay." I could tell he was curious.

The car came to stop as I reached my destination. I got out the car and waited for him to drive off. He doesn't know I have no parents. I would like to keep it that it that way.

But instead he came out and stood in front of me.

"hey, I'll walk to your house." I felt my skin pale.

"No, no I'm fine..I don't need you too." I said tightly silently pleading for him to just leave.

Instead he insisted, to walk me.

"No, no really its fine!"

"I don't need you to really"

"please just let me."

"No , no just go home I'm fine."

"No, just let me ple....."

"NO I SAID NO JUST LEAVE ME AND GO HOME PLEASE."

I didn't intend to raise my voice but he was really pushing me, I don't need him blabbing his mouth to the whole school that I live in a care home. I don't want that.

He looked a bit hurt and taken back.

"okay.." he said quietly and shifted his gaze to the floor. That's when I  felt guilty.

"look..i'm sorry for shouting at you. Its just I don't want you to walk me home. You have done enough already. I don't want to seem greedy. So bye now"

He looked up to me trying to meet my eyes but I covered them with my hoodie.

"Whats your name?"

"Lumeria." He just stared at me. I didn't know where to look so meet his gaze. I meet his blue orbs and stared at them, like they had a story to tell.

"Your beautiful." He whispered to himself. But I heard and my heart started to hammer in my chest. I felt blood rush to my checks. I looked away quickly.

I don't think he knew I heard him and I'll like to keep it that way.

"I'll see you around.." With that he left me.

"This will be the last time you see me...." I said more to myself. That's how it has always been. Its better that way.

I know it is.
