Chapter 3: I Don't Wanna Go To School - Charlie XCX

The next day I woke up feeling great. My muscles were aching but like in a good way, a way that made me feel ready to take on the world!

My hair didn't even need a brushing, it looked great. My skin was clear and my head didn't feel muddled. My clothes fit me great and my school bag was packed and ready to go.

Yesterday felt like a stupidly bad dream as I made my way downstairs.

I had a great breakfast of scrambled eggs and went off to school.

Forgetting all about yesterday.

As I entered the school, I could hear the difference in the school hallway before I saw it. Girls and boys alike were huddled into groups, buzzing quietly, or what they considered quiet.

I could catch a few words like 'handsome' and 'tall' and an overarching theme of hotness.

Feeling myself finding the dream more and more real, I rushed up to the approaching Lucas. "Hey, what's everyone talking about?"

Luke gave a smile that looked as though I was staring in a mirror.

Luke could practically be my twin if it weren't for the flaxen blonde hair and emerald green eyes, in contrast to my brown hair and red eyes. We were also roughly the same height and the confusion for our teachers was even worse back when we had the same physique. But he's bulked up a bit since then while I stayed relatively lean.

Still, I was definitely the hotter one~

He lived next door to my new house, really handy when the loneliness becomes too much.

Though I doubt I have to worry about being alone anymore...

"I think its about the new transfer students." He explained, not helping the sinking feeling in my chest. "So many girls are fawning over them, I'm almost jealous." He grumbled. I gave a coy smile and continue walking down the hallway to our classroom only to feel my toes catch on something.

Time seemed to stop as my body leant forward, gravity pulling me into a tight hug.

Sorry did I say hug? I mean gravity pulled me into a FULL NELSON.

Still I managed to catch my footing, awkwardly shuffling a few steps before regaining my balance. My heart thumping in my chest and the blood rushing to my head, I turn around and glare at the blonde boy angrily. His legs spread out unabashedly across the hallway. He didn't even seem bothered about me tripping over his legs, eyes still shut as though he were asleep.

'Shu, the eldest Sakamaki brother. Has a habit of sleeping everywhere because of his insomnia.

Always on his earpieces that play classical music though he has been known to listen to women's moans like some kind of twisted ASMR... Pervert.'

I leaned over him, a scowl on my face as Lucas tiptoed gingerly over to me. "U-uh Ace, you know him?" My frown deepened, "You could say that."

"Hey Shu!" I yelled, my seemingly perfect day now souring like mouldy bread. The bastard couldn't even be bothered to look up at me.

'oh NOW IM ANNOYED'

And you see when I'm annoyed I don't exactly think before I act.

Bad habit I guess?

Grabbing his earpieces, I pulled off one side and hurriedly ripped the entire thing out of the music player strapped to his neck. Not even pausing to see his reaction, I took off as fast as my feet could carry me. "See you in class Luke!" I yelled as I turned the corner.

'God, what have I gotten myself into?'

My chest burned and my legs ached but I pushed on. I hadn't heard the blonde's footsteps for a while now and I had run for about 10 minutes straight.

I had about half an hour till class so I chose an empty room to bunker down in and slipped through the doors.

Dropping onto a chair, I let out a hot breath. The white ear buds that were stuffed hastily into my pocket were now a tangled mess. Shoving them back into my jacket pocket, I was about to stand up when I spotted a figure lying on a bench.

It was like spotting that looming shadow in a horror movie that the actors couldn't see but the audience sure as hell could.

Tension as a result of dramatic irony? (Dont mind me, a literature student passing through)

'Damn, they are quick.'

Looking around I nearly smashed my own head into the wall when I realized I'd ended up at the worst place to be when avoiding this musical vampire who was known to play every bloody instrument there was, the goddamn music room.

'Of all the places I end up, its the place that all characters in fanfictions meet the ONE VAMPIRE I WAS RUNNING AWAY FROM!'

I sighed internally and tried to slip back through the door past the seemingly sleeping vampire. As I slowly inched past him, I grabbed the broom in the corner of the room.

As expected, he made a move to grab my arm and as expected, his eyes were closed.

His hands closed around the handle of a broom while I managed to slam the door shut behind me, getting away unscathed, for now at least.

As I reached my first period classroom, I recieved a disapproving look from my teacher for my tardiness and my clothes that were drenched in sweat.

"Technically I'm not late, the bell hasn't rung." I give a sheepish smile to my homeroom teacher, only to dive for cover behind my desk as she pulled out a ruler.

"With that out of the way." She glared at me once more and I sunk further under my desk. "We have a new student in our class, introduce yourself please." She put on a smile and applause rang out from the class, the girls clapping louder than they usually would and the boys lacking the vigour they usually had.

It was then that a new student I hadn't noticed before stood up from the once empty seat beside me.

"Hello there, my name's Laito~" he said with a coy smirk, tilting the fedora on his head, which I'm pretty sure was against the school dress code but whatever. Screw the rules, hot anime boys am I right?

'Laito, the youngest child of the triplets and the forth Sakamaki brother in terms of age. Known for being flirtatious and downright perverted, basically a thirsty bish, because of the sexual abuse he suffered at the hands of his mother, Cordelia.'

I ignored the squeals around me and turned to Lucas who sat just behind me. "Well isn't today just great." He sulked the moment we faced each other. I swear if Luke hadn't already had a girlfriend he'd probably be flirting with half the girls in school. I gave a snort and took my bag that had been left behind during that little encounter earlier with Shu.

As I pulled out my pencil case, I saw a hand reach over. Slapping it with my notebook, I turned to look as the owner of said grabby hand. "That was mean, Card-chan~" he whispered, while rubbing his hand in fake pain.

'Card-chan?! Of all the possible nicknames!'

"What did you want?" I sighed as I flipped open my notebook. "Well, if you're asking~" he began, his flirty tone coming back in full swing. "Not happening, if you're that horny suck on this." I handed him a blue pen after realizing his previously unaparent lack of a pencil case.

Damn mosquito couldn't even be bothered to bring a bag.

"Too bad then, thank youu~" he picked up the pen and stayed silent.

But all good things must come to an end.

"Aww, you bite your pens Card-chan? Wanna bite something else instead~?"

'Why me...?'
