The One That Got Away { ChangLix }

Chapter 9

Here I am. A new school which means a new me. If I act like I did in my last school I know I'd instantly be hated by anyone and everyone. Not to mention the McClain's have high expectations for me. Since they will be my new parents, that means I have to meet those expectations. So, I must always have teachers and students like me, have perfect grades but still be athletic, be musical ( which I will do musical theater for ), be on the leadership team, and don't do drugs or drink alcohol ( don't let them know you do drugs and drink alcohol ). In other words, perfect.

I take out my schedule that the lady in the office just gave me and walk to my first period class, math. The class is filled with loud students surrounding their own clique. Which I don't have since I am a mix of practically all the cliques. Okay, maybe not the goth or emo clique. The teacher stood with me in front of the class "Class. We have a new student."
I smile a bright smile and wave to the class "Hello! I'm Felix Lee. And if you're wondering-"
I say in a judgemental-like manner "Felix? That's such a weird name. That name is not Korean."
Then I go back to my normal voice "Well, I'm actually from Australia."
I do the orange justice and they all yell "OoooOOooOooohHhhh!"
And one guy shouts "Say something in English!"
"'Ello, mate. I was just goin' to get some shrimp on the barbie at Chris's house. I heard there's some massive gators in the lake. They're big feisty fellas, almost bit my arm off-"
"Ah Felix that's enough, take a seat."
"Alright, Ms."
I take a seat by a girl with long blonde hair and dark makeup. She gave off the goth but not quite goth yet vibe and a tall guy with a huge smile and a mullet. What is this? The 80s? I look at them and smile "So, what're your names?"
"Yooheon."
"I'm Minghao."
"Nice to meet you. I'm excited to be in this new school."

The rest of the class I took notes and asked people for help a lot. When I say a lot I mean a lot. I swear I have no idea what I'm doing.

I feel like people seem to like me more here. Maybe because at my old school I was a pessimistic, rude bitch. People like kinder people with soft personalities. But people would rather date the cool, tough, bad boy. I'm not looking for someone to date. I'm going through enough shit emotionally. I'm not ready for it.

I walk out of the class with Minghao. He's a really nice guy. I'm surprised at how friendly everyone is. It almost seems like no one hates me. Or at least that's what I thought.

Minghao waved at me and walked in his next class. I wave back and walk to my next class, only to have some dude push me into the lockers. Figures.

He's slightly shorter then me but is somehow still intimidating. Probably a stoner. Kinda seems like the type of people I hung out with at my old school. Gotta avoid him. I got to admit though, he is good looking. "Well. Look, its the new kid."
"Yeppery."
"The fuck you think you're doing talking to my girl."
"Dude, I'm just trying to be nice."
"Haven't you heard? Nice guys finish last."
"Welp. Looks like this nice guy finished first."
"What-"
I boop his nose and giggle "Lee Felix is the name. Befriending is the game. Who are you?"
He blushes and I scream inside Yo yo. I made him flusteredddd "Shut up."
"Maybe I can guess."
"Please don't."
"Jeffrey? Carl? Brett?"
"No. Those are western names too."
"Ariel?"
"Oh my fuc-"
"That's kind of pretty.. Okay, Areil. Nows your moment floating in a blue lagoon. Boy you better do it soon no time will be better. He won't say a word and he won't say a word until you kiss the boy. Sha la la la la la don't be scared you got the mood prepared go on and kiss the boy. Sha la-"
"Its Seo Changbin! And why the fuck are you singing in English??"
He nearly yells in annoyance and I just laugh at him "Because I can."
"Well, quit it."
"I got pretty far in the song. Did you like my singing voice or my accent or something?"
"No! Its irritating."
"Mmmmhmmmm?"
"Shut up."
"Well, Changbinnie I gotta get to class."
"Screw class. You're gonna be late on your first day."
"I mean... That wouldnt be too bad. I can just say I got lost."
"Why are you like this?"
"Aww, does Changbinnie wanna cuddle with me?"
He lets me down and snaps "Go to class you twat."
And he leaves. I laugh while walking off to my next class, leadership.
