Today would be the first day of school. The first day of the year and it's already heading off to a bad start. I woke up late- again. Well late me. Don't blame me, you get so used to a recurring routine for so long.

That was all my summer break held; waking up late and immersing myself into a new book. Occasionally visiting the towns library to change or purchase a new book.

Matchmaking was kinda held short for me this year due to previous events that occurred a year and a half prior, but I can't help but feel slightly irritated at the fact I'm capable of seeing such personal information like love itself. The pressure is unbearable, I just wish I could have someone to share the pressure with.

But, funny thing about wishes is that they can only be granted by the supernatural. I'm as close to that as it could possibly be in this world; but it's not like that wish is gonna come true.

Reality check- and I'm here, running round the house with a toothbrush and foam from the toothpaste dripping from my mouth, whilst I'm packing my bag hastily. Heading back to the bathroom and locking the door behind me, I rinse my mouth and wash my face to rid myself of the visible froth and foam combination.

Fully dressed in black leggings and a maroon cropped hoodie, I tied my short brown hair up into a messy half-up-half-down bun allowing any baby hairs to stand freely. I take a quick glance at myself in the mirror before being harshly interrupted you the annoying, high pitched voice belonging to none other than Jack.

"Hurry up! I know there must be a lot of improvements to be made... but just get the fuck out!" He pounded his fist on the other side of the door.
Unlocking the door, I'm face to face with my shirtless stepbrother, "Calm your tits, I'm out, I'm out!" I sarcastically raise my hands in surrender, making the vibrant lilac light gleam from my palms; causing me to squint my eyes awkwardly.
"You okay there? You look like you've just been blinded by my abs," he sarcastically flexes, leaving me to laugh hysterically.
"You? Muscle? Never thought I'd hear that together in the same sentence, unless it'd be along the lines of: 'that jack kid needs to build up his abs- he's lanky as fuck'!" I grip into his shoulder for support as I feel my laughter to be never ending.

"No need to criticise! Now move out of the way, bitch! I needs a wazz!" He dances, attempting to pull off his 'wazz dance' as he called it, but only causing me to stay glued to my current position; blocking the doorway by leaning against the doorframe. I just laugh wholeheartedly and move out the way and grab my packed school bag and run downstairs.

"Bye mum! Bye David!" I yell before heading for the door.
"Good luck for your first day! Look out for Jack while your there!" I heard my mum yell behind me before I shut the door and head out; speed walking down the street, trying not to get distracted by all the luminous lights that shone everywhere I turned.

Gripping my black, white and gold backpack strap tighter, I speed my pace until it becomes a speedy jog. My black huaraches trainers take me to the front of the school, where I'm greeted by the familiar front gates. Jogging inside, I bump into someone, causing us both to fall over dropping all our items.

Apologising repeatedly, picking up all the persons belongings, I glance at him. His sharp jawline. His starlike freckles. And his raven black hair. Quickly taking a glance down at his palms, I take a note that the same vibrant lilac, shining from both our visible lines- the same one I'd stare so deeply and thoughtfully all my life, being worn on this guy. I'm destined to be with him. He's the guy that'll make me happy for the rest of my life, the guy said to make this a life worth living.
