How Can I Fix You?

Chapter One - Pioneer

As you're awoken by the harsh rays of sunlight drifting through your bedroom window, you squint to protect your eyesight and start getting up. As soon as you do, however, you feel a sharp sting in your head and feel dizzy but immediately shake it away and get dressed; it's probably nothing.
You walk to school having eaten nothing in order to get there early and do your usual morning activity. Once you arrive, you find the place completely desolate and all that surrounds you is the silence and a slight breeze; you feel the emptiness run up your spine with the echoes of your shoes slapping quietly against the cold, hard floor.
Sleepily trudging through the building and school field, you finally approach the lake and let out a sigh of relief. You know in your mind that there probably shouldn't be a lake so close to school grounds but at least a tall and daunting yet seemingly meek fence barricades you - for the first time, you wonder if it's against the rules to be there.
You gaze through the small metal bars over to the other side - really love it here: the way that the water ripples gently as the sounds of the wind skimming over the jade grass melt away your worries and turn your focus to the trees around you. They sway so elegantly as if somehow smiling at you, almost asking you to smile too. But even then, you just can't.

Coming back to your senses a moment later, you rush back to the building as your class is about to start; you catch the line just as everybody is entering the classroom, barely.
You go straight to your seat and sit down, failing to notice the boy who's standing quietly at the front of the room, only noticing his presence when he sits next to you, staring. You turn to face him, surprised that someone is now occupying such an abandoned seat, and see his box-like smile - adorable.
You don't sense the blush creeping onto your face nor how you're staring back into his almost-glowing, black eyes yet he doesn't seem to find it the slightest bit awkward. Instead, his smile grows wider and suddenly you feel a pinch inside your chest. No. You can't fall you someone again after the last time. You quickly avert your eyes and ignore his glances for the rest of the lesson.
