My Mate Is My Stepbrother?! (boyxboy)

Chapter 4

Scarlett's POV

The next day I arrived at school a bit early, and there was a bunch of chatter going on throughout the entire school. 'It's probably that new girl..let's just hope she's not like some of the other girls here.' I ignored the whole commotion, opened my locker, and placed some of my unneeded materials in it. I then walked to my class and took a seat.

Out of the blue, a bunch of students rushed in the classroom surrounding a quiet but very beautiful girl with dark skin. The girl seemed to be wearing a dark blue jean Winnie-the-pooh-jumpsuit, a yellow tank top, and a pair of black and white converse. The crowd suddenly dispersed when the girl pushed past them and just stared at me. 'Why is she..' the girl walked near me and sat in the seat next to me, not stopping the one-sided staring contest. As she grew closer to me the hairs on the back of my neck stood up, and I got this feeling that was telling me I was waiting for her for my entire life.

I tilted my head and I guess my face showed my confusion because the girl softly giggled, which I felt made my face blush. "Yup you guessed it! I'm-" "You're my mate aren't you? I asked, trying to smile and hide my disappointment and sadness. "Exactly! My name is Klara it's a pleasure to meet you. I guess I should tell you a bit about myself. I'm an Otaku first of all, secondly...I can read and write fan fiction for days. I had to beg my parents to let me study abroad here! I really wanted to see how Americans act." Her smile was so genuine and just happy, contagious even. I found myself showing a genuine smile during our conversation.

"It's not that Germany doesn't have any and everything to offer...it's just..the minute I came here, I could see so many difference between this culture and my own. Everyone here is so friendly and kind, and if you're nice and bubbly, people don't look at you weirdly. I guess that's enough about me sorry! Tell me about you." I could tell she was trying to hide her thick accent, but I thought it was really cool, plus she wasn't doing a very good job at hiding it. I chuckled and she blankly looked at me before laughing to herself. "Well, I'm My Chemical Romance, Anime, and Hamilton trash. Just to sum myself up for you, I'm into anything fun, crazy, and anything cute. Just like you." The last part accidentally escaped my lips and I could feel myself blushing, so I quickly looked away.

Klara listened to me and laughed when I turned away, my joy dropped when I noticed that people quickly lost interest in her when she got near me, and a lot of people were already starting to talk bad about her. I frowned at them and they quickly turned away from me. When I turned back around Klara grabbed my hand and smiled, "I'm so glad I found you! I thought it would take years! My mom didn't find her mate—my dad—until she was almost thirty. I truly can't believe it." I listened to her talk, and as she did..I felt my heart beginning to race. Her words were so emotional and so kind..I had never met anyone like her.

"Have you ever seen "that" before? I don't think I have!" A boy behind us obnoxiously yelled while pointing to our hands. "Well damn....you're right! I don't think I've ever seen "that" before." Another boy laughed. I was about to say something, but Klara turned around and beat me to it. "Well damn bitch you never seen two girls hold hands? Where the hell are you from again?" She asked, sounded authentically American. "How do you like me American accent. It's good yes?" She joked, returning back to her normal and thick German accent.

I stared at her with surprised eyes, at first she was this quiet little kitten...she almost made me forget that kittens have claws too. "You're amazing.." I muttered before biting my lower lip. She looked at me and even through her dark skin, I could tell she was blushing and that she was flustered. "No way! You're amazing! Truly! You're...einfach schön" she said while smiling brightly. "Class please can I have your attention!" The teacher yelled as she walked in. Klara sadly pulled her hand way from mine, and faced the front. I softly smiled and turned to the teacher who was staring at me and Klara very intently.

"Okay class, we have a new student today, can you come up to the front please? If you're done holding hands with miss Scarlett here." Ms. Vitch said, a hint of homophobia in her tone. "Of course professor bitch. I mean Ms. Bitch." Klara said while standing up and going to the front. Some of the students snorted, others  gasped, Professor bitch-I mean Vitch on the other hand...wasn't so amused at Klara's response.

"Oh I'm sorry..did I say something wrong? You look upset Ma'am...whatever I did I'm so sorry." Klara said with a slightly pouted lip. "You said an inappropriate word instead of my name." Ms. Vitch said while crossing her arms, "oh I'm sorry...it was probably my accent. I'll try not to do that again. Vvvvitch. Ms. Vvvvitch. I have to make sure I get my Vs right." Klara looked at me and winked, and I coughed trying to stifle a laugh.

"Okay. Please just introduce yourself." Ms. Vitch rolled her eyes and fixed her granny glasses. "Right! My name is Klara Hofmann, it's a pleasure to meet all of you. I'm from Germany, and I'm really happy to be here." Klara bowed and smiled, "okay please take your seat." Ms. Vitch said, pointing to the chair next to me. Klara quickly saluted to the teacher and sat back down in her seat, giggling to herself. 'Wait...how could I have forgotten so easily...what about Logan? What am I going to tell him?' I looked down and placed my hands in my hair, frustratedly.

'I'm going to have to see him at lunch...I can avoid him until then, but what am I going to do? Am I going to date Klara? Is dating even an option? Does Klara want to date me?" So many thoughts began flooding my head, but they all quickly ceased once Klara placed her hand on my shoulder. "You okay?" She whispered to me. I glanced over at her and nodded my head. "Yeah I'll be fine.."

The rest of my morning classes seemed to fly by, and it was lunch time already. As I very slowly made my way to the cafeteria, I ran into Klara who literally ran into me. "Oops sorry! I got really excited and I tripped while I was trying to get to you. Do you mind if I sit with you? You're really the only friend that I've made here.." she said while playing with one of the many curls in her hair. "Uhhhh sure! I mean, of course." 'Did she say friend?'

We made it to the table that my friends and I usually sat at, and I pulled out a chair for her. Parker, Elijah, and Logan walked up to the table but they all halted when they spotted Klara. "Who's she?" Elijah asked while taking a seat next to me, and squinting his eyes at Klara. "Explain." Parker said as she took a seat next to Elijah, Logan sat next to Parker and gave me a questioning look as well. "Well this is-" "I'm Klara! Scarlett's mate!" Klara proudly interrupted me, and everyone at the table stared at her and then at me. "What?" Logan asked, his eyes widening. "I-Umm...I can explain!"
