January

Chapter 1

|Chapter One|

There he was.

It was my second day new to Calburn high and He wore a all black hoodie and distressed dark Jeans with all black vans. I've noticed how he would come into class and sit in the far left seat of the front row for me to burn my eyes into.

Don't blame me everything about this guy was beautifully painful. He had a nice toned body that wasn't too buff and pretty tan skin. His dark hair was always a mess but it suited his attire.

The best part about this boy was his eyes. They were a mix of grey and gold Little flecks that could swirl you into his dimension. I could drown in his eyes forever never speaking a word.

That's enough writing for me. I closed my journal and put it away in my bag. If time didn't matter I would be writing about this guy forever. I looked over at his seat and a small smile came over me.

Imagine the kids we'll have. I mentally laughed at myself and then looked towards the teacher who was scurrying around a bunch of papers.

"Ah here they go!" She muttered. Ms.Flore stood up straight and gave us a wide smile that was a gorgeous pink color on her Chocolate skin.

"It's only the second day and I'm a mess!" She said jokingly. The class snickered and I joined in, this was her first year teaching and I wanted to be on her good side.

"Alright guys so today I have a lesson that I really planned out" she said. Everyone started to look suspicious and some fidgeted.

"I matched you up with partners and basically before you introduce yourselves I want you to write what you think of this person" She said excitedly.

There were groans everywhere including from me. This was going to be embarrassing, I unconsciously started running a hand through my curly hair and then readjusted my black frame glasses. 

I mean I don't mix well with society. I'm just so socially awkard that it hurts. I'm so used to sitting in my own world and talking to myself through my journal I don't even know the first step to say "Hi".

Ok I'm lying about that but I don't have guts. Ms.Flore began calling out names and then that's when she hit mine. "January And Ace" she said all sweetly.

I looked up at her in confusion. Who the heck is Ace? Ms.Flore pointed her baby blue painted nails to the boy with the grey eyes and gold flecks.

My body froze, she gots to be kidding me. I know she think she's slick. I grabbed my bag and slowly walked over to the desk next to his and sat down.

I wasn't going to say anything because I didn't want any bad impressions. "Alright guys now that your settled down I want you to take 3 minutes and really think hard on what you think of the person in front of you" The teacher said.

She passed around papers and told us to begin. Without hesitation I grabbed my paper and began to write. I already knew what I was going to write. I wrote down the following words

Easily ticked

Tough

Humorless

I tapped my pen on my Chen and thought for a while. Unknowingly I stared at the side of Ace's face until it came to me.

Mysterious

He was mysterious to me, he was so quiet and....

Fragile minded

I noticed myself looking back at Ace only for him to stare straight back at me. His grey eyes held a look of boredom yet they entrigued me. I felt myself steam up and my cheeks were a light pink on my caramel skin. I looked away and made my hair a curtain between us.
