Story 1: Introduction: The Princess and the Geek
Thursday in the morning, I wake up and find myself back from reality. Where was I you ask? I was in my own dreamland dreaming about HIM. Who is HIM, more importantly who am I? I am Emerald Uy, just your little miss popular; but don't get me wrong I am not a slut or a whore or a bitch. Anyways, I was dreaming about Paul Matthews, the school's resident nerd. Why, oh why did I have to fall in love with him? I know I shouldn't judge a book by it's cover but if you see the way that guy glares at someone, you'll be wishing you wre dead. It all started in the library, valentines day.
[Flashback]
I was running from a mob of pink and red in school. Today was the most ill-fated day of all, Valentines day. It wasn't because nobody wants me to be their valentines, but because of the exact opposite. I was one of those unlucky ones that were usually mobbed by fanboys that will probably eat you alive.
I hurriedly looked for an escape, then I thought of the library. 'The perfect hide-out.' I thought to myself.
I quickly bolted to the library undetected, I thought for sure that no one was there but, I was wrong. The entire school population wasn't outside trapping people to their doom. The school's assistant librarian, Paul Matthews was spending his valentines with books.
He just stared at me, his piercing eyes behind those wire rimmed glasses. An electric shock ran right through me, I blushed, but I never broke our eye contact.
It felt like hours when we broke our gazes from each other. I then politely excused myself and ran towards another hiding spot.
[End of Flashback]
I groggily walked to the bathroom, my brown was messed up in more ways than one, my chocolate orbs still tired. I sped up my usual daily routine to go to the library. It was rare for me to go there, but ever since I saw him there, I made it my daily habit. I was going there for the past 4 weeks, it was a bit boring there but, it did have advantages though, like my grades and scores raising up.
During that time period, I still haven't talked to him. We would pass by each other, not even exchanging glances, yet I was already contended with my 'connection' with him.
I walked towards the romance section, I still had 1 hour to go to class. A green book caught my eye, I pulled it out from the shelf and then I saw Paul. I quickly placed the book on the shelf, blushing wildly. I guess I'm weird like that, but you guys have experienced this feeling before, right? The pounding in your chest, the way you see him in a new light? The way you notice the little details, like his slightly messed-up hair? Ugh, I'm thinking about this too much. Didn't I say I could make boys fall for me in an instant? A light bulb appeared above me, an idea is born! Watch out Paul, Emerald is locking on you! Your ice-cold facade will melt before me! Mwahahaha!
I heard a voice behind me. "SHHHHH....This is a library. No talking please."
SHIT! It's Paul! How long was he there?!
Did he see me act crazy? Did I look like a dork?
I just groaned, I hate this day.
A/N: Is this okay for a short intro? Comments and suggestions welcomed and needed.
