The Difference Between Us

{3} Meeting the clique

L O G A N

Mr Fast continued the corrections with Ayo teaching the class at times, giving me good chance to look at the beautiful angel seated beside Ayo. It was kinda difficult because she was behind me. I wonder if her and Ayo are dating because if they're not, I'd die of happiness.

I also wonder if she's dating anyone else because I could make out a football/American football jock figure at the other side of the class. He had dark brown hair and looked muscular. Girls like her seem to be cheerleaders although she didn't dress like one, and cheerleaders and jocks are the perfect cliché couple, don't you think? Time went by fairly fast and before I could say 'inakaitakerunomikoto', it was lunch break.

"Yo Logan! Wanna sit with us?" Ayo asked as he walks towards me.

"Us?" I asked. It was then the angel stepped out of class. Her black hair bounced off her body as she walked and came to a stop beside us.

"Us!" Ayo implied the girl and himself.

"I'm Shelia Chung, nice to meet you." The girl introduced. I can literally melt at her sweet voice. Wow, God really spent a lot of time creating this beauty. A few strands of her hair got in her face so she tucked it behind her ear to keep it in order.

"Are you two a thing?" I just have to ask, curiosity is killing me.

"No" Ayo answered much to my relief. "I'm not into girls." He said and walked ahead of us. That surprised me a lot. Is he...

"Is he..." I trailed off but Shelia shrugged.

"Nobody knows. He's more of a feline lover than a person lover. Wonder what happened to him in the past." She muttered that last sentence to herself but something about it got me curious.

"Past?" I asked, confused out of my brain.

"Yeah. It took him a whole year to start talking to me even though I'm his seatmate and he hates and avoids physical contact, especially with girls. I'm thinking he had an ex that traumatized him or but that's just me talking." I soaked every word she said in with awe and looked at my hooded new friend.

Everyone has a past hun?

Touché my inner friend, touché.

We sat by a table after getting our food. After some minutes a guy, the jock I saw earlier, came to our table. "Yo Ayo, hey Shelia, sup Logan." He greeted and sat. He had brown unruly hair and brown eyes. His muscular build showed that he must be working out. Sorry, I just like observing people. It's more of a habit than a hobby though. Don't blame me, situation called for it.

"Logan this is Don, captain of the soccer team." Ayo introduced. Well that was a shocker.

"Soccer? I would've thought you were a quarterback." I honestly stated. His structure suits being a quarterback. Don just chuckled and dug into the food. Not too long after Don's appearance, another person came to the table.

"Sup people." The owner of the voice was slim but muscular, like me. His black hair is gelled and his black studs brought out his face glory. He wore a hoodie like Ayo but instead of Ayo's green, he wore black and orange.

"Hey Bryan." Shelia greeted and then turned to me to introduce him. "He's Bryan, leader of the dance club and he's an idiot." She said.

"Hey, I don't do idiocy, Don does." That comment earned him a punch from the soccer captain. Bryan just chuckled and dug in.
