we'll meet amongst the bliss

prologue

Hope county, August 2009

Hope county, Montana. A small rural county surrounded by mountains. It Is a place many call home including, yourself now. Though you were uncertain when your family moved into a small house outside Fall's end, you've grown attached to the community. Going to school at the nearby Hope county high school (I don't know if there is an actual school in game, if so I couldn't find its name) you go on day by day, getting through the monotony of it all. It is your freshman year when your life changes for the... well I won't spoil anything, yet.

'Dear God, can this class drag on any longer?' (Y/N) thought as he looked at the nearby window. "Mister (L/N), are you listening." The teacher said annoyed. "Sorry sir, got distracted for a moment. I'll make sure it won't happen again." ( Y/N) said embarrassed by the class starting and snickering at him. "See to it that it doesn't." The teacher chided. " As I was saying, tomorrow we are getting a new student, you may have seen her around but she is switching classes to ours."

The teacher said getting everyone's, including yours, attention. "Do you know who it is sir?" A student said, asking the question that was on everyone's mind.

"No but I will be getting the list update tomorrow morning." The teacher said, "Now is there anymore questions, no. Well let us resume class."

'Huh I wonder who this new student is. I'm actually exci... ' (Y/N) thought before being interrupted. "MISTER (L/N)!" The teacher yelled. "Sorry sir."

Time skip to the next day

As everyone filled in and into their seats, the teacher was interrupted by a knocking on the door. " Come in." The teacher said.

The door opened to reveal the most beautiful looking girl you've ever seen. Not 'Hot' or 'gorgeous' or even 'cute', though the last one is quite accurate, but beautiful. The girl, no woman walking into the room has brown hair that runs to her shoulder. She has eyes that remind you of water.

"Class this is Rachel Jessop, she's the new student in our class." The teacher said, "Sir, why is she here? Could it have been anyone else?" Said a student in the back. A murmur of agreement passed around the class.

The only one that was fine with here being there was you and the teacher. "Quiet, now miss Jessop, do you have anything to say to the class?"The teacher asked. "No sir." Rachel said in a barely audible whisper. "Ok, why don't you sit by mister (L/N)." The teacher said " (Y/N) please raise your hand."You do as asked and she takes a seat next to you.

"So, how's your day been Rachel." " It's been good." She replied quietly, almost making you not hear it. "That's good." You said awkwardly. "Well class since it is 10 minutes till class ends, you can talk amongst yourselves." The teacher said, After that everyone broke into groups, everyone that is except you and Rachel.

"So got any hobbies?" You ask trying to break the ice.

"Why do you ask?" She replied meekly.

"I'm just curious ." You said awkwardly.

"I like to dance and sing and study flowers." She said hesitantly.

"That's nice, everyone needs a hobby, less they go stir crazy." You replied with a smile. " So what do you do after school?"

" I hang out with my friend Tracy." She replied quickly. "What about you? What do you do after school."

"I mostly just read, write, and play games." You said casually.

*Riiiiing*

And like that the rest of class flew bye. The teacher is one of the first people out the door, by the time you're done packing up your stuff and heading to the door, Rachel is still getting hers together. As you get to the door you hear something that makes your blood boil.

"Well if it isn't little miss druggie" It's Jane Doe ( creative name I know), the school's "mean girl. "Have you gotten your hit today."

"I'm trying to stop." Rachel said, trying not to look at her.

"Well why don't you have your parents put you in rehab, oh wait. They don't care." Jane said snarky.

You shouldn't get involved, that's what repeated in your head while you walked toward the girls.

"HEY!" You yelled pissed off. "Why don't you fuck off and leave her alone."

"Are you really defending her?" Jane questioned. "Do you not know what she does?"

"Yes I am and no I don't really care." (Y/N) replied.

'Why am I defending a girl I barely know?' (Y/N) thought.

"Fine, this isn't entertaining anymore." Jane snidely said as she leaves.

"Bitch" you mumbled as you turned. And the thing you saw broke your heart.

Rachel was crying, more sobbing, mumbling "I'm trying" over and over again.

Not knowing how to exactly confront her you try your best. "Hey." You said tentatively putting a hand on her shoulder. " I don't know what that was about but I'm here if you need someone."

She doesn't say anything, just hugs you and cries. Not knowing what to do you just hug her back.

"Hey Rachel are you comi... Oh shit, what happened?" A new voice said. It was Tracy Lader. She quickly walked up to you and Rachel. "Rach, what happened."

Rachel recounts the previous series of events to Tracy and she starts to cry once more, clinging to you harder.

'She's really clinging to me, wh?'' (Y/n) thought. 'What is making her want me to confront her?'

After a few minutes Rachel let's go and follows Tracy out the door. Before she leaves, she says something that you don't know, at that moment at least, how to respond.

"Thank you for standing up for me (Y/N)." Rachel said slightly louder than she was earlier.

"I want to know if we can possibly be friends?" She asked shyly, not looking directly at you. " I mean if you don't want to I understand."

You not having the heart or will to resist such an adorable display of hope, replied with a simple answer. "I think I'd like that." The noise she made can't be described in any word other than adorable.

"Thank you, Thank you, Thank you, Thank you, Thank you so much." Rachel said excitedly.

"Um, you're welcome." You said not knowing why she was excited. "Well we should head out, wouldn't want to keep you both from doing anything important."

"He's right Rach, we still got to get you to your appointment. " Tracy said, not really trusting you.

"Right, I'll see you Tomorrow (Y/N)." Rachel beamed as she and Tracey left.

As you stood there alone, a single thought crossed your mind. 'She has the most beautiful smile I've ever seen
