The Thing About Love

One

The thing about love is that it's good and it's bad, it had it's benefits and disadvantages. To love is to put one's needs in front of your own, yet maintain stability. You have to be willing to open your heart only for your significant other. Love is not only affection for another, but a sacrifice and a process.

My name is Xelia (pronounce Ze-lee-ah) , I know of a love story and this particular love story is anything but cliche or typical. I am prepared to share with you every detail of this story. Every heart-breaking moment and heart-warming moment.

It starts at a high school, FarField Highschool. Vixen scopes out all the people that had came from her middle school, this was her freshman year. Vixen is the type of girl that doesn't fit in with the crowd, she practically created her own crowd. She is a tomboy that likes nature, drawing, reading and 60's Rock Bands. Vixen disliked what most girls her age liked, she actually despised most of the people in that high school.

Vixen actually thought often about why she hadn't fit in, why she was so.. So.. subnormal!

Why can't everyone just think like me? I mean, I'm surrounded by ignorant minds!

She thought silently to herself as she strolled unaccompanied down the halls. She had recognized many faces, but none that she spoke to, or even like for that matter.

Maybe that's how things work in high school, the summer wipes the memories of old friends. Maybe I was the only exception.. I guess I wasn't informed on the new trend..

She thought to herself in a sarcastic tone. She had just passed one of her best friends from her middle school and waved to her, but she kept walking. This upset her, but she wasn't going to waste another minute of her first day worrying about it.

That's how Vixen was, she just frankly didn't care. She allowed herself to have fun, create memories and share laughs, but she never attached. She knew her limits and she knew her place, this may seem lonely, but it's actually a great way to prevent heartbreak in the long run.

Vixen stepped into her homeroom.

"Great I get to sit in a room for over an hour with my best friend that forgot I exist."

She mumbled as she plopped in the last seat of he classroom. the desk was wooden and written on by past students.

"Maybe when this one is famous he'll remember the drawing he put on this table of his girlfriend's name!" Reńe said nudging Vixen sort of forcefully. Vixen leaned over to view the drawing for herself and giggled.

"something funny ladies?" Mr. Kaiser said as he entered the classroom.

Mr. Kaiser had been the hottest, youngest science teacher in the whole school. Entering FarField Highschool, EVERYONE knew that.

Blushing, Vixen answered, "oh.. No sir.. We.. We weren't-"

"Actually yes Mr. K! My friend and I were just amused by the wasted ink on your perfectly wooden table. Apparently Diana is a real catch, because here it says she is Landon's sweet love." Reńe said quite loudly and confident.

Reńe was one of the best class clowns and could get herself out of any situation with any teacher, even the hot ones. Reńe dressed in mostly black. Black ripped jeans with a black leather jacket topped off with black zip up boots and black ripped gloves.

"Oh really, Diana huh? I'm sure I've had her... but it doesn't seem to ring a bell. I guess that's why that was drawn on the table in the back of the room." he said as he chuckled a bit.

Vixen gave him a friendly smile while reńe grimaced at the insult of her seat decision. Mr. Kaiser went on about the importance of high school and the problems we will encounter in our four year journey, then finally, the bell rang.

"Bye mr kaiser!!"

Vixen said as she waved and exited the classroom

"Goodbye vixen, and tell your giggling friend that it's Mr. Kaiser, not Mr. K!"

He said with an annoyed look on his face.

Mr. kaiser's face was flawless, it glowed with perfection. clear skin, bright blue eyes, tan and he had a killer haircut. Mr Kaiser had muscular arms and a nice butt in the skinny jeans he wore that day. At least that's what Vixen thought.

"I didn't quite catch your name, mine is Reńe. We have every class together, so I figured now would be a good time to get on first name basis."

Reńe said while peeking at Vixen's schedule and comparing it to hers.

"My name is Vixen."

Vixen said nervously, this is the first time a girl had approached her with a nice comment.

"Vixen? Cool! I can tell we're going to get along."
