It Is What It Is -Zion Kuwonu

mystery boy

-Monday. 6:30am-

I wake up to the sound of my alarm clock going off. 

I get out of bed and look In the mirror. I look at myself and think can I be arsed with school, all the bitchy people who are so fake and will be so nice to your face but slag you off behind your back. 

I go to the bathroom and jump In the shower. I brush my teeth then I go into my room and pick something out to wear. 

"MADDISON" I hear my mum shout me. I throw my clothes on and I go downstairs into the kitchen where I find my mum making me a cup of coffee. 

"I have made you a drink dear" she says to me as I sit down at the table, she kisses my forehead. 

its only me and my mum. I'm the only child and my dad passed away from cancer 6years ago. He was so ill and it made my mum get depression. She's still suffering from it now. 

"thank you mum" I say as I smile at her. 

I realise the time it is now 7:45am 

"shit!!" I shout I run upstairs and I put my hair in a messy bun and I put some mascara on. Theres no point going all out with makeup when I'm only going to school. I run downstairs and out my black vans on. 

"I'm going to school now mum" I shout 

"okay dear, I wont be in when you get back later. I'm going shopping" she shouts back. "okay"

I leave my house and get in my white range rover. I drive off. 

I get to the gates and all I could think about on my way was that mysterious boy a the party the other night. I need t find out who he is. "yes biach" I hear someone say I turn around and its loren! 

"hey, do you remember that guy at that party who was smiling at me?" I asked while grabbing her arm.

"ooo you remember don't you" she winks.

"urggg just do you?" I desperately say.

"yea I dooo, why you ask?" she raises an eyebrow.

"I need to find out who he is! he was so hot!" I sit down on one of the benches. "you cant tell geo though!" my eyes locked with hers to tell her not to say anything. 

"cant tell Geo what?" I hear a boy say. Me and Loren turned around to see Geo standing there. "o...oh erm..." I stuttered. "its a surprise, you are not allowed to know" Loren says while looking at me so I can agree with her. "oh ye. its a surprise babe" 

"I love surprises" he sits next to me and puts an arm around me. 

All of Geos boys came and sat with me and Loren aswell. 

Then Austin, Nick, Brandon and Edwin walked past us but there was someone else there aswell...

omg! 

it cant be!...

it was him! the mysterious boy. 

he comes to MY school!

he must be the new boy in their band!

I look up at him and he looked at me and smiled again. I smiled back. I blushed and he looked to the floor and started to smile again! he looks so cute when he does that. 

Loren looks at me and gives me a kick under the table because she noticed me smiling at him. She doesn't want Geo to catch me.

I watched them walk inside the building as we was sat outside on the benches. 

-bell rings-

Me and Loren walk into lesson. Loren sits in the middle of Austin and Edwin, how awkward. and I sit next to Brandon, there is no one else sat on the other side of me, just a lonely chair.

We both take our seats then the band comes strolling in. 

I see the mystery boy. hes in my class!

Brandon takes his seat next to me and gives me a hug hello. 

I cant help but stare at the new boy. 

"this is Zion Miss Bowden" Austin said. 

Zion... that's a nice name. 

"alright well Zion, what is your last name?" my teacher asks but he got awkward as he didn't really know anyone. " kuwonu" he says, his voice is so croaky and deep. I love it. 

"take a seat next to Maddison" she says. 

I'm still staring at him I cant believe how ho- WAIT WHAT! HE IS SITTING NEXT TO ME!!!

"alright" he says while laughing because hes caught me staring... AGAIN. 

He sits next to me and we are just sat there being awkward. I catch Loren turning round slyly and winking at me, trying to make sure Zion does not see. I mouth to her turn around as she was making me laugh. 

"so.." he says.

"erm hi, I'm Maddison but just call me maddy" I smiled at him. 

"well nice to meet you maddy, I'm Zion" he smiled back. "are you okay from the night of the party?" I tried to act like I didn't know what he was talking about but I knew exactly what he was talking about. "what you mean?" I ask as I am writing my work down. 

he grabs my pen. 

"you know what I'm talking about, when that boy grabbed you?" he raised an eyebrow at me. "hes my boyfriend" I say braking the eye contact with him and looking down at the table. 

He slowly lifts my chin up so we was making eye contact again. "A boy shouldn't treat you like that" I smile at him as he was so cute. "I know" still looking in his eye Brandon nudges me. he whispers "do you like Zion?!" I ignore him and start doing my work. 

-the bell rings-

the lesson finished. me and Loren walked to out lockers when we heard a boy shouting. "Maddy" we both turn around ad Zion was there. "can I talk to you maddy?" 

I look at Loren to see if she will leave. 

she walked off and elbowed me and gave me a little wink. 

ZIONS POV

I watched Maddy walk out of lesson with her blonde friend. I don't know her name. I thought to myself I should get to know Maddy. 

I ran out lesson to catch up to her. i shout her. "Maddy" she turns around.

"can i talk to you maddy?" i asked hoping for her friend to walk away so i could talk to Maddy alone. 

Maddy looks at her and her friend elbowed her and winked at her. that made me laugh a bit.

"what you wanna talk about?" Maddy says looking at me dead in the eye. "well, i wanted to know if you would like to go out for a coffee one day with me?" i asked smiling at her

she looks around like to see if anyone was looking at her. "i would love too..." "great" i say cutting her off. "but ive got a boyfriend" she says looking at her feet. "its not a date, i just want to get to know you?" i asked. i knew she had a boyfriend but i still want to get to know her. i think I'm starting to like this girl and i have only just spoke to her. 

"well as friends to get to know eachother then yea sure. when do you wanna grab a coffee then?" she asks. 

"after school?" i asked. 

"sure" she says. 

she smiles and starts to walk off still with a big smile on her face. shes so pretty.
