Not ready for this

1

Keith's POV:

I woke up thirty minutes before my alarm, it was going to be one of those days. If I cared about how I looked half as much as other people I would use this time to doll myself up. I'm not like other people though.

It's 5:30 am the start of a new week which I already had little hope of it being good. After a good seven-minute mind battle with myself, I sit up.

The cold floor of my shared two bedroom apartment sends chills up my spine, making me sigh in annoyance. I stare at my pale feet before switching on my lamp too bright I think to myself.

I drag my feet across my floor, not even a minute after I stub my toe off a book that my cat comet seemed to knock over. That fucking hurt. Ouch. I leave my room and I don't need a mirror to know there are bags under my eyes.

The hallway light is off, I keep it that way. I always eat something before getting ready I made the mistake of not freshman year, might be why I'm a tad bit skinny now. Oh well, I open the fridge snatching an almond milk yogurt and berries, but only raspberries.

We have a small island to cook on and eat off of and a kitchen for about three our living room and kitchen are pretty much one. I like it this way, less room, less mess.

I eat rather quickly and chug some orange juice from the jug wiping my mouth with my forearm, before closing the fridge. I try to quietly walk back to my room but fail, by running into my roommate.

" Keith? It's like ten to six what are doing up already? " I didn't need the hallway light on to know he probably looked fan-fucking tastic even though he just woke up.

" I woke up before my alarm so I ate so food, sorry if I work you" he chuckled and ruffled my hair with his left hand. " Glad to know you're taking care of yourself "

Our heads both turned at the sound of his phone ringing, I raised a brow at him. " Allura, " he said answering my unasked question. He must be used to getting a text that early from her.

He disappeared back into his room and I did the same. Shiro had been my roommate since freshman year, I'm now a senior. He's long graduated, he's saving up to move in with his girlfriend, Allura.

I strip myself of my clothes tossing the shirt onto my bed and boxers into a corner. Grabbing my towel from the back of my door I walk to our shared bathroom.

Im finished in less than ten minutes and walk back to throw on a simple black shirt with matching black jeans. Too much? Nah not enough. I look for my bag which is also black. I'm not emo fuck off.

By the time I leave the apartment its 6:20 and I'd say I'm making good time for a Monday. I stop by a corner store which is open 24/7 and grab a monster and granola bar.

I don't pack lunches and I don't eat school lunches. So this should get me through the day I think. I sigh and grab a ready made sandwich and bag of lays original potato chips. I pay and continue to walk to school which is less than a mile away.

Class doesn't start for another hour and ten minutes so I settle in the library which I know opens as early was five. Our library literally has no life, I think she practically lives here.

I dump my things onto a wooden table mentally cursing myself for not feeding comet this morning, I pause my music and open shirts contact. Sending him a quick text to feed him.

He respondd almost instantly which oddly annoys and pleases me. I put my music back on listening to my playlist of my favorites when Feel good inc. By gorillaz starts to play I relax and power up my computer.

I take basic classes though I'm in a couple honors in not a genius I just know how to take notes and study when I want. But my first class today is Anotomy, I took the class just for shiro.

I check to see if I forgot any homework, I didn't. At this point all I do is sit around and wait, or look for a decent book. I don't mind reading Its just not something you'd catch me dying to do all the time.

I stand up and take off my red jacket which stops at my waist and browes though the rows of books. I stop in a section on the late 1920's before continuing my search for something interesting. 

I leave one headphone out almost thinking I'm in class or something, though the action sort of proves to find me something entertaining.

Ironic and almost funny, I see and grossly hear two students eating each others faces. Though from where I stand I can only see the girl, she has pretty blonde hair and nice, long, fake eyelashes. Not to be a bitch but other than that I don't see anything special about her.

Probably cause your gay Keith

I roll my eyes and walk back to my belongings letting them have their moment, gross moment. I have nothing against kissing and shit I just think there's a time and place ya know?

They arent super smart though because the camera reach back there as well, one more row of teen fiction and they wouldn't have been seen.

I organize my stuff before leaving giving a slight nod at the librarian who smiles widely at me even though it's barely 7:30. Class doors open at this time which means I can chill in there, gets me away from blondey and her toy.

My teacher isn't in the room when I walk in which isn't new, he unlocks it and goes to hell knows where. Not complaining usually gives me time to start on whatever it is we're doing for the day.

I start on the vocabulary we have to know and by the time class actually begins I'm half way done. I finish half way through the hour and relax at the back of the classroom listening to my music and drawing random cats on my paper.

•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•

My last hour is science and personal favorite aside from study hall where I get to sleep. I'm caught up in this class and a little ahead but so are others which makes today kind of a free day.

And something close to a smile is on my face when the bell rings until,"Keith can you come here for a second I need to talk to you about something " Fuckfuckfuckfuck what did I do? I pushed in my chair didn't I? SHIT I DIDNT!

" You aren't in trouble if anything he is " I turn my gaze to a boy around my age who stands on the opposite end of the desk. He's taller than me but not by much, he has light caramel skin which enhance the blue that colour his eyes. His messy but clean brow hair completes his look the length of it bringing out his facial features even more.

Pretty boy

I turn my attention back to my teacher and nod slowly as a sign of understandment. " you've been passing my class with a strong A for most of this year you also have a great GPA which is mainly why I chose you"

Chose me for what? At least he answered the why me question already. " You my friend will be helping this young man, Lance over here pass my class "

I could see him perk up a little at the mention of his own name, almost like he zoned out everything our teacher said before that one word. I couldnt refuse because one, that's not who I am and two extra credit.

He finishes what he's saying and we leave this won't be so bad right? I can handle this maybe just like give him the answers? Fuck. I don't know how this works.

"Alright so whats your name mullet?" He didn't. How fucking dare he its just lengthy! " I'll give you a hint, its not mullet " he rolled his stupid blue eyes and chuckled " I'd start to feel bad for you if it was "

I turned the opposite direction and began to walk ignoring what little conversation had just happened. " Wait so that's it? How do I summon you for when I need help "

I could tell he was holding back a laugh which pissed me off, I gave him the finger as I reached the doors of the front entrance. " just chant my name three times in the mirror "

He went silent and now it was my turn to hold back a laugh. As I left I swore I head him yell out to me " But I still don't know your name! "

This won't be so bad right?
