Just Feral

Chapter 3: Old Friends

Berry's POV

A gust of cold air had hit me as I sat down, I looked up to see that I was sitting under one of the only air vents in the class. I didn't want to take my hoodie off because I didn't feel comfortable with out it. I was really skinny and I know someone would say something about it like Vanessa or Charles god they are so fucking annoying. Please excuse my language but it's the truth! Vanessa is this girl with blond hair and thinks she's on top of everyne and everything. I heard she interrupted this emo girl when she was into it introducing herself, I think her name was Natalie or something like that. I hope she is doing well, but I don't really know sence I don't have a class with her. Now Charles is well hes complicated. We used to be friends in the earlier grades but then... You know what I should get off this negative topic. I heard the bell ring and class started. As i looked through my bag for one of my pens Charles sat next to me. He looked at me and I looked at him, as I was about to get up and move my seat I saw the only available seat with a seat beside Charles again. I let out a small sigh under my breath and sat back down looking opposite way of Charles. I didnt want to see his dumb blue hair or his face for the rest of the day. As class went in Charles was constantly staring at me and then back at his book. I tried my best to ignore him, but I was just so noticeable. I turned to look at him "Look can you stop staring me down please it's very annoying.." He looked at me with a blank expression on his face and said "I wasn't even looking at you dumb mut!" The teacher heard Charles and me speaking and told us to hush up unless we wanted to be kicked out. I apologize to the teacher while Charles on the other hand mocked her as she turned her back to the bored. I went back to writing in my book taking down the notes for the day before the bell rang and dismissed us to are next period which for me was gym.

Charles POV

I had just got finish talking to Vanessa about how I got completely soaked this morning by some car speeding pass a large pool of water while I was walking to school. I don't know how but this conversation turned towards Berry. I didn't like to speek about Berry after what he said about me behind my back. And to think I actually had feeling for that dumb dog. Vanessa spoke as she stepped into the class with me "Ugh it smells like wet dog." She was obviously saying it loud enough so Berry can hear her, but he didn't seem to be paying attention to us. In fact he seemed to be in his own little world as he looked outside the window when it was raining. Vanessa turn to me and said "Look Charles I need you to do something for me." I replied with "Yeah what is it?" She had told me to sit next to Barry and annoying for the entire class period. I wasn't completely comfortable with it, but it would give me a chance to sit next to him I guess "Alright then I'll do it." I took a seat next to Berry and he looked at me as I looked back at him. It was pretty awkward to be honest, but as I was about to looked away he got up to move 'Crap don't go please! Wait why do i even care..?' I though to myself as I saw Berry let out a soft sigh and sit back down. I looked around for a bit and my eyes eventually glanced at Berry's hair 'When did he make it purple? Why would he even do that, but then again purple was are favorite color when we were once friends..' I snapped out of it as Berry turned around to speak with me "Look can you stop staring me down please it's very annoying.." Berry said with a slightly annoyed tone in his voice. I didn't want him to think that I was staring at him so I replied with "I wasn't even looking at you dumb mut!" I didn't mean to be so harsh with my words, but my facial expression set otherwise. As I shouted that out the teacher turned around at both of us and threatened to kick us out of the class. I know Berry was a good noodle, he apologize to the teacher and went back to writing in his book. Me on the other hand I don't really care and I just marked her as she turned around to face the board. The thought of yelling at Barry list stuck in my head for the rest of the class and I felt so bad. It's probably why he hates me and said those things about me. Its a good thing Vanessa told me about what Berry said or I probably would have been picked on like that mut.
