Chapter 6 ~ Earth

Your POV 

'Chanel!'

I grinned and ran to the beautiful, fragile Asian girl who's hair was tied up in an elegant high pony. She gently closed her locker door, carrying multiple books and a pencil case, giving me one of her odd smiles. 

'Hey, (y/n),' she greeted, leaning on her locker. 'How was your weekend?'

'Same old stuff,' I shrugged. 'Piano, ballet, a few concerts, parties, hardly anytime to myself.'

'Sounds like my weekends as well,' Chanel grinned. 'Only I have no time to myself. Anyways, the social is coming up. Who you gonna take?'

The first social of many is coming up for our school. We have socials from Year 8 to Year 10. The first social is with a private boys' school, Amare Private School. Most of the schools in this area near Aureum Hills are private, or just 'priv' for short.

In socials, you don't need dates or anybody to take. You could just hang out by yourself for the whole thing if you wanted to. When somebody asks you who you're gonna take means which boy are you going to hang out with.

Everyone over here still asks who are you gonna take because it makes them feel cooler to hang out with boys, even if we are just thirteen. To be honest, I don't know much boys from that school. I don't have any brothers, but I do know that Jordan goes to that school. Maybe I'll ask him for help.

'Not sure, actually,' I admitted, unlocking my whitewashed locker next to Chanel's. 'Might ask Jordan, Blair's boyfriend, for some options. He moved to Sydney, away from Hollywood to be closer to Blair for the summer.'

'Aw. That's so sweet,' gushed Chanel. 'I hope I'll get a boyfriend like that. But doesn't Jordan have movies to shoot for?'

'Yeah, but he still fits school in somehow,' I answered. 'Who are you gonna take then, Chanel?'

'Oh, that's a hard one,' Chanel frowned. Being the queen bee in our school, super wealthy and basically model material, she's already got boys lining up for her. She goes to Pecunia Mall practically everyday, meeting up with boys from Amare College and heaps more. But she doesn't go alone, of course.

My parents will occasionally let me go, and same with Layla but she usually goes with Mikayla, Harper, Brittany and Ashley. Even if Ashley's poor and can't buy much, she somehow manages to cover it up. I bet those four will also have boys waiting for them, given how pretty they look because of the expensive makeup they buy. Ashley can't afford that, but she is naturally pretty with her blonde hair and blue eyes.

'Out of the boys that have asked me, I've narrowed it down to four. There's Jack, this Asian who's cute and charming, especially with those glasses, but he isn't like a nerd. He lives on Argenti Park, and his parents own a technology brand.'

Of course Chanel would include their wealth status. 'This other guy, Damian is quite hot, but he shares his first name with Layla's father who's practically an uncle to me, so that makes it weird. The third guy that lives on Argenti Park is the most popular person in that school, practically a queen bee, except he's a guy, second to none. Except maybe Jordan, but then again, who isn't?

'His name is Hayden and he's really hot with those twinkling blue eyes and brown hair. The last boy is Lawrence, and he's the richest, living with us on Aureum Hills. He's also really smart, but he doesn't have glasses. The only thing is that he has blonde hair, which I don't really like. I prefer guys with brown hair and Asians. So, what do you think?'

I thought honestly for a minute, evaluating all of them, seeing which one fits Chanel perfectly. 'I think you should go with Hayden. He seems like the one you're most hyped about, and even if he doesn't live on Aureum Hills, he still is pretty rich, living on Argenti Park. Just remember wealth isn't everything. He also seems quite nice, and I've heard from Jordan that he gets straight As all the time. Definitely go with him.'
