Blue- Eyed Girl

1

I don't think you know how easy it is to fall in the ocean that is your eyes.

I walk into the classroom and I'm greeted by balloons and those popper things people use at a birthday party or a 4th of July party that makes all the streamers and confetti come out. "You're back!" my best friend runs up to me and gives me a tight hug. In the corner of my eye, I see Evolette staring at me with her icy blue eyes. I smile warmly and I notice the slight pink tint dusting her cheeks. 

"Percy! Percy!" 

I turn at the sound of my name. "What is it?" I ask the short blond girl standing behind me. She holds out a box, which is neatly wrapped and tied with a pretty bow on top. I take the gift and smile at the girl. She blushes and runs off to her seat with her friends. I'm quite popular at my school. Because of my dashing good looks and my outgoing personality, as soon as I got here two years ago, everyone took a liking to me. My name is Percy, well my nickname is Percy, my full name is Persephone Blue, I'm a female, lesbian, and I am 6 ft. I'm popular with both the girls and the boys, but I don't really do dating. I just mess around with one girl for a bit, then I move on to another. I try my best to let them down nicely after a while, but they tend to get hurt, so I decided to let them know it wouldn't last, at the start of our "relationships". everyone knows I don't sleep around, I'm still a virgin. I'm just waiting for the right person to come along. 

I'm pulled out of my trance by a tug on my sleeve. I look down and meet the icy blue eyes of Evolette. What I was expecting was her eyes to be icy, but rather than that they're warm. When I say that I mean her eyes look like the ocean. There's a slight twinkle in her eye and the sunlight that is streaming in through the window makes her eyes seem even brighter. "I'm glad you're back. can we talk after school?" Evolette says to me softly. I nod at her, still in a trance from her beautiful eyes. She walks away with a small smile gracing her lips. "Cute." I accidentally say aloud. "What'd you say?" my best friend, Ambrosia, questions me. I turn to look at her. I smile sheepishly and rub the back of my neck awkwardly. "You heard that?" I ask her. She raises an eyebrow and smirks. "So who is it that you think is cute?" Ambrosia pesters me. I feel my cheeks heat up as I look over to Evolette, who's now got her nose in a book. Her long brown hair falls into her face and she tucks the loose strand behind her ear. "Oh, I know. You think Evolette is cute, don't you?" she asks me with a wide grin on her face. My face heats up after she asks me the question. "I... Well...." I try to protest but the words just don't leave my mouth. "Hahaha! You do!" she exclaims excitedly. I look at my feet in pure embarrassment. "It's okay, she's pretty popular amongst the school." Ambrosia tells me. I raise an eyebrow. "Is that so? Why?" I ask. Ambrosia thinks for a few seconds then glances at Evolette quickly. "Her looks, mainly. But I've heard she's pretty athletic and she is an amazing singer, she can play almost every instrument, and she's smart. She's book smart, academically smart, just generally intelligent." Ambrosia explains. I smile as I watch the brunette read her book. 

"She's exactly my type."

I see a finger push my book down onto the table. I look up and see silver messy bed hair, brown eyes almost hidden behind thin- rimmed glasses and a rose collarbone tattoo. "Oh, hey, Percy." I say to the short haired girl. I lift my book back up to cover my face as I read the last page. "Don't ignore me!" Percy exclaims dramatically. I lower the book a bit and raise an eyebrow at the silver- haired girl. "What is it you need?" I sigh heavily. Percy smiles and pokes my cheek, which is puffed out. "I just wanted to talk to you. It's after class. And I'm bored." she responds. I push her hand away and close my book. I stand up and look up at her. as she looks down at me, her messy hair falls into her face, slightly covering her eyes, making it so the only super visible thing is her button nose and her pink lips. My face heats up and I quickly pack up my things and walk out of class silently. "Wait! Dimples, wait for me!" I hear Percy yell behind me. My cheeks flare up at the pet name she'd given me about a year ago. I stop and turn to look at her. "Hurry up!" I yell back to her. I take off and I hear her pounding footsteps running behind me. I let out an excited laugh as I fly out of the doors of the school into the parking lot. Suddenly, I feel arms wrap around my waist and I'm being yanked back. As the person pulls me back, a car speeds past us. I fall on top of the person and I quickly get up. I turn and see it's Percy. "How'd you catch up to me so fast?" I ask her, breathless. Percy stands up and blows her hair out of her face. "I saw the car coming and I noticed you didn't hear it so I sped up to catch you." she tells me. I blush and look down at my feet. I tug my ear lobe and avoid her eyes. 

"Uhm, thanks."

"Oh yeah no problem." 

Maybe I am overthinking things, but I could feel her eyes watching me. I look up and meet her chocolate brown eyes. Percy pulls her glasses off her face and uses her shirt to clean them. I look at where her stomach is exposed under the shirt and find myself almost drooling. Abs. She has abs. I look up at her face, which I can see much better now, with her glasses and hair out of the way. She has light freckles dusting her nose and cheeks, chocolate brown eyes that have a hint of emerald green around the pupil, long eyelashes, arched eyebrows, a button nose, and naturally pink cheeks that give her face an innocent look without her glasses. She places her glasses back on the bridge of her nose and gives me a small smile.

I notice Evolette watching me as I lift my shirt to clean my glasses. I stay quiet as she checks me out, from my exposed stomach, up to my messy silver hair. I place my glasses back on my nose and give her a small smile. "Let's go." I tell her. She follows me to my car and stops in front of it. She grabs my hand and looks up at me. Her ocean blue eyes casting a spell on my mind, causing me to smile at her. 

"I just wanted to tell you that..."
