Two Sides to Every Girl ~PDH~ (Gene x Reader)

Chapter 1~ Sudden Run-in

Y/n's (your name's) POV ~•~ Monday morning

I woke up to Yobanashi Deceive playing, which was the alarm I chose for the school year. My laptop was in my lap, and I realized I had fallen asleep while sitting up, watching anime. What was I watching again...? Oh, right! It was a/n (anime name)! Didn't B/n (older brother's name) recommend it to me a while ago? It was right before high school started... I'll have to tell him I finally started it! I wonder when I'll see him next... He's always busy with college and work!

I forgot what was even happening, but my laptop was dead for sure, so I moved it aside and started getting ready for school. It was kind of boring, the same old same old. I'm not involved in anything... I used to have friends, but just like when we were in middle school together, they moved on to high school, and they did the same with college, leaving me to fend for myself in sophomore year. My image is awful, and I have no chance of making any new friends... Why does everyone think I hate people?

My parents weren't home, leaving me to walk all the way to school, so I started making my way there. So much effort...I'd rather just stay home and call the office, saying I'm sick... I hate when my parents aren't home to drop me off. Usually at least my mom's home, and then after dropping me off she goes to work, but I guess randomly she had to go in earlier... Of course she did, on a Monday morning, just to make today a bit worse. I already have stupid A through E classes today!

I shook my head. I'm not gonna make any friends the way I am, being so...pessimistic? Is that what I am? In my own little world, aka my room, I'm somebody else. I'd just be one of the weebs, if I were social enough to let people be aware of that, or if I joined the anime club... Instead, I for some reason keep my world and school world separate. I guess I'm too scared of what people think of me?

I was making my way past a light gray colored house, when I heard a voice calling my name behind me. I turned around to see a sophomore, like me. He's one of the popular boys, so I was surprised that THE Laurance Zvahl knew my name. Do we have classes together? I'm kinda blanking at the moment... Possibly homeroom? Yeah, sounds about right.

"Y/n, hey." Laurance panted before catching his breath.

"Uh...were you running after me for a while?" I questioned.

"I was, actually. You speed walk a lot, huh? You dropped this." He held out my f/a/c (favorite anime character) key chain that I attach to my bag. I took it from him, but I just put it back into my bag, rather than hooking it back on.

"Th-anks," I said, slightly broken up.

"I didn't know you were into things like that," Laurance noted. "I mean, you're always really quiet in the classes I have with you." Wait, classes? Hmm, which classes could they be...

"Well, it makes sense since we don't know anything about each other and are in completely different worlds." I covered my mouth. I seriously...just said that to Laurance Zvahl.

"I'm sorry to hear that there has to be a barrier between us. I don't want it that way." Laurance stated. He started walking, and out of nowhere we were walking the rest of the way to school.

This was kind of sudden, considering the fact that Laurance and I have never talked before. "Sometimes people are too different to know each other." I keep making this weirder... "I-I'm sure you're a good person at heart though, and your intentions seem good, not being opposed to the barriers between lowly people such as myself be broken down." I sheepishly laughed.

"Your laugh...it's cute." Laurance remarked.

I didn't really know how to react. Laurance is kind of known to be...a huge flirt. Doesn't he act like this with all girls?

"Thanks?" I squeaked.

We eventually reached school. "I'll see you around, Y/n." Laurance winked and walked off. Will you? Or will you forget about ever talking to me? That is the question...

I got to my locker, organized my stuff, and made my way to homeroom. I looked around my class, and I confirmed that Laurance was in my class. You would think I'd know who's AT LEAST in my homeroom by the third week of school... Apparently not for me!

I payed no mind to him and went to my seat. Soon enough, attendance and announcements started. There were a list of names called down to the office, and one of them was mine... What did I do?!

I sat there, unsure of whether I needed to ask the teacher to leave. I've never been called down to the office before...

"Y/n?" Mr. Blakeory questioned.

"Uh... Yeah." I shuffled out of the room and made my way to the office. I started getting anxious, so I took a turn and walked out of the building. I made my way off of school grounds and headed to a nearby park. I usually stay in the building, but...too late now. Only the beginning of the day, and I'm already skipping... I walked along the path, until I encountered a group of two boys and a girl who were wearing PDH school uniforms.

"Oh great, please don't tell me you're friends with that Zane kid." One of the boys from the group, one with black hair and blue eyes approached me. I think there was a Zane called down to the office...? I also sit by a Zane in history. Are they the same person? If so, is that who this guy's talking about?

"No... I only know of a Zane Ro'meave. I haven't really talked to him, though. I was just skipping homeroom." I explained. Oh gosh! What if these people are monitors that are allowed to skip homeroom?!

"Does she even know who we are? Tell her, Gene!!" the other boy shouted.

"Zenix, quit yelling, yeesh..." the girl droned.

"What is your little group, then?" I asked.

"You interested in joining?!" the dark brown haired boy bombarded, which made the girl tell him to pipe down again.

"Umm...no. You know, I'm just gonna do my own thing, cause you clearly have...yours." I started walking away, but the black haired boy, Gene, told me to wait.

I turned around. "Yeah...?" I questioned.

"Zenix is onto something, for once," Gene stated. "I'm the leader of the Shadow Knights. This park is our base of operations. Would you want to join us?"

I can't mess this up! These people approached me. Maybe I can be friends with them! "I'm not sure about your group, but I guess with skipping," I replied.

Gene placed his arm around my shoulder. "After today, you'll be happy to join the Shadow Knights."

I tensed at the sudden notion of his arm. "I'll get to know you guys, I guess."

"Are you hardcore?" Zenix questioned, jumping out at me.

I flinched and slightly leaned into Gene's arm. What am I getting myself into?!

"Gene, she's pathetic," Zenix complained.

"Patience. We have yet to get to know our little..." Gene trailed off.

"Y/n," I replied.

"Yes, our little Y/n here. She has yet to get to know us. Let's give her a chance." Gene removed his arm from me.

"Hmph. We'll see." Zenix looked right into my eyes, and I squirmed at all the attention I was receiving. With how I am with my parents, and how I am at school, I'm used to getting very little attention.

I guess it's homeroom with the Shadow Knights!
