The Ice Queen And Her Flame

Chapter 2

Azar and I chatted while we walked, it turns out we practically had the same schedule. Thank God, at least I had someone to talk to through this.

BRIIIIIIIIING!

God fucking dammit! I'm going to be late again, this time with a friend. "Bet I can beat you there Icy!" Azar taunted as she sprinted ahead of me.

"That's cheating Azar!" I yelled as she tripped me when I got close. It ended with her winning and me groaning in pain, yay.

Class started exactly how I thought it would, the teacher introduced me and started teaching the lesson. It turns out I really like history and Azar hated it with a flaming passion.

Speaking of Azar she turned out nicer and more sarcastic than anticipated, and I'm definitely not complaining. She had bright amber eyes that added to the whole flame look she had going on. She was wearing black leggings and boots with a black tank top and a little flame necklace. Super cute and hot.

The history teacher started going into this Kingdoms history, along with current events.

This Kingdom is the Fire Kingdom, known for its powerful army, magic, and government. The citizens were aggressive but honorable, making for a steady Kingdom. That stuff everyone everywhere knew about this Kingdom.

"Now as I'm sure you all know our current heir to the throne is missing, she disappeared a couple of months ago. Our police are constantly searching for her, she was due to marry the heir to the Earth throne but disappeared."

Their heir was gone? I looked to Azar who seemed on edge, she seemed scared, her stare was blank as she gazed into the wall. I tapped on her arm and she flinched.

"Sorry, what's going on?" She said numbly, did she really not realize?

"Nothing much, talking about the missing heir or something like that." I answered softly, not really putting any effort into it. I wonder why she just goes blank like that, she did it once when we met last period, what the hell?

Deciding not to delve into that, I continue working until the end of class.

It's only the first day and a new pattern forms, Azar and I head to our class we get handed an assignment and we work on it talking while we're doing the assignment.

I've learned that Azar is very sarcastic and not one to be messed with, this guy was hitting on her and she completely ruined his dreams, it was quite funny to watch.

The day had flown by fast as the last few minutes ticked by I thought to myself 'maybe I can actually stay here', it was a bad thing to hope in a situation like mine but I did anyways. I really wanted to stay.

The obnoxious bell rung it's last one for the day and the students were set free. "Hey Icy, what are you doing after school?" Azar asked in the nicest voice I've heard from her all day.

"Nothing much, I'm already moved into my apartment so I'm free to do whatever." I answered honestly, there was no point in lying to Azar, trust me, I tried before and I'm great at lying.

"Yes! You wanna come over and watch some movies while we finish our homework?" She asked excitingly.

I've only watched a couple movies in my 17 almost 18 years, I think it would do me some good, "Yup! It sounds like a lot of fun!" I smiled. This is going to be the first time I've gone over to someones house, much less a newfound friends house.

"Well do you just want me to drive you to my house since you don't know where I live?" I nodded to the question and we got our things and went to her car.

It was very weird, it felt like Azar and I had been friends for a long time but we weren't, we had only just met today. I mean look, I was currently in her car heading to her house to watch movies and do homework. It was weird becoming this close to someone this quickly or just being this close in general. I had never been friends with someone before so everything was very new, I just hope I don't screw up.

The ride was silent and comfortable allowing me to watch the trees fly past the window. I felt my eyelids grow heavy from all the thinking, especially after school. All I could here now was the silent breaths of Azar that slowly lulled me to sleep.

I woke up when I felt myself being laid down, at first I was about to freak out, was it them, did they find me? But I remembered I fell asleep and Azar probably carried me in.

I blinked open my eyes for a second, looking all around the room, living room I think.

"Looks like sleeping beauty is finally awake." Azar teases as I rubbed the tiredness from my eyes. "What happened to Icy or Ice Queen?" I joked, she just snickered a bit before answering with, "Sleeping Beatuy felt more, appropriate. I mean seriously, have you seen yourself sleep?" She asked before going to get her bag.

Wait, did she just, flirt with me? Or was it a compliment? I really hope she was flirting. Why do I hope she was flirting?! 'God Morana your screwed' I told myself before getting up and getting my homework out to work on it.

I sat next to Azar doing some of her math, luckily I grabbed all my binders and started working on it with her. Every once and a while we would ask each other questions, about math or about each other or just life in general. It was nice.

We had just finished math when we started working on Azar's least favorite subject, history. "Why do you hate history so much?" I asked her.

"Because it's boring, what's in the past will stay in the past, what's the point in learning it if we can't change it?!" She replied angrier than she had expected by the way she apologized for yelling afterwards.

Deciding she was done with history she asked, "So Icy, what movie do you want to watch?"
