Long Lost Twin

Chapter 1 || Meeting The Other Harvens

Hi! This is my first time writing an original story, and boy, it's going to be looooong. Don't worry! I'll be sure to update frequently everytime I can!

She stepped reluctantly inside her classroom which was filled with few students she doesn't know. She bit her lip in nervousness, as she looked at a piece of paper on the blackboard. It showed a seating arrangement of the students in this class.

Her blue eyes travelled from the top to bottom to look for her name, Lily. Lily wondered why it was the first name, since the last name could definitely fit in that small box that represented their respective chairs. She shrugged it off and went to approach her chair, the third row in the third column. Her face brightened and she dropped her red backpack on her chair upon arriving it. Lily hummed the track of the chapter; Latch by Sam Smith.

She sat down and fidgeted awhile to be comfortable. "Uwa, it's so hard without my friends.." Lily muttered to herself while taking out a pair of earphones and a notebook with pencil. She plugged the earphones to her iPhone and scrolled down on a long list of songs. She pressed "Latch" softly as a surge of notes travelled to her.

Lily's hand slowly grasped her Faber Castel pencil and flipped her notebook open, looking for a blank space. Upon finding one, she started doodling.

Lily is a normal 2nd year high-school student with amazingly high grades and various talents. One of her specialties is drawing, digitally or traditional, she can nail it. She is also good orally, but has some imperfections such as impatience and what-not. She skipped a grade for being such a smart ass, and Lily's circle of friends were left behind. She was pissed for that but moved on anyway.

Now, here she is, waiting for her turn in introductions.

"I'm Freya Glinton, age 13, February 13, my hobby is playing the guitar." The last person before Lily introduced cooly. Freya sat down and it was Lily's turn to introduce herself.
"I-I'm Lily Harvens, new to this batch. I'm age 12, January 6, my hobbies are drawing and listening to music." Lily said with one breath. Murmurs was heard instantly after she spoke, leaving her unsure and confident about herself.

The teacher smiled warmly at her. "You're new? Are you the one who got transferred to a higher grade because you were excellent in all of the things you do?" She inquired.

"Yes, I am that student." Lily answers with no nervousness involved. It was her achievement, why in the world will you be shy about it? Some students gaped at her, like some odd perverts ogling at her curvaceous body. Well she is, but yeah, you get the point.

"Wow!" Lily heard a student whisper. They seem to act different now, kinder. She is scared of new people, hard for her to make friends.

"Please sit down." Teacher Grace cleared her throat. "Next!" Lily gracefully sat down and wiped the imaginary sweat that began dripping off her forehead.

The overly handsome guy behind Lily stood up, his smile toothy and his cheeks flustered a bit. "Hi, I'm Leon Harvens, age 13, January 6, my hobby is listening to music." The guy behind Lily said. Some students screamed and cheered, a bit shouting saying "I wuv you Leon!!"

Leon Harvens, January 6..... WAIT, WHAT?!

"I suppose you're Ms. Lily's sibling?" The teacher, still smiling warmly, asked. Leon smiled back but he complied. "No, I'm not siblings with her. I just met her today."

Lily couldn't believe her ears, she doesn't know if it was correct-what she heard. And she turned around. She came to see a very handsome, adorable, and young man. He had messy blonde hair with shimmering blue eyes and his porcelain skin sparkling against the light. If she was an ordinary girl, she would go faint right away, but she wasn't a normal girl. This guy is pertaining that he has the same surname as hers?! Has the world gone mad all of a sudden?! And his appearance is exactly like Lily's, except for the fact that he is a boy. Not only that, they have the same hobby, same surname (although I already said that), and topped off with the same birthday! The only difference was their age and he was older by 1 year. She quietly thanked God for that, the last thing she wants is the same age..

Meanwhile, the teacher has reached her Rage Mode. And yes, she has a thing like that. "How can you NOT BE SIBLINGS?!" Told ya. "If you weren't the same age, I'll mistake you for twins?! Are you even related in that matter?!" Teacher Grace burst, suddenly becoming a beast. Lily wonders where did the soft side she saw earlier go.

Leon raised his hands suddenly, like he was being arrested. "No Ma'am! We really aren't related or any of the sort! Unfortunately, we aren't blood-tied." He said cooly but still respecting te fact that he's talking to a teacher. Who is going berserk that is. Her eyes burned with fury as if it could bore holes to your body. Even her voice could just make you want to curl up in a corner and just cry for days. Lily thanks God again for giving her a good and soft side..

She stands up from her seat and slightly pleads to Teacher Grace. "Please believe Leon's reasoning. He is correct and I don't want him to be bored with holes on his next class." That made students laugh which was probably bad because Teacher Grace's eyes burned with more fury. "No offense. Anyways, I don't have cousins nor siblings. Call my parents if you want proof. Please let him sit down now, he looks like a puppy being scolded despite of him being innocent." She finished. Lily didn't notice the small smile on the teacher's face as she said those heartwarming words. They may be a bit harsh but it was caring and gentle at the same time. It also had an icing of justice. Just the way Teacher Grace liked it.

"You're good with metaphors," she complimented. "Sit down Leon, you too Lily. Next!" Teacher Grace said.

"Thank you." Lily curtsied before sitting down gracefully at her respective chair. Leon leaned closer to her ear and blew a breath before he whisper. "Uwah!" Lily held her ear in surprise. "Don't do that!" Leon chuckled before asking in a soft mannered whisper, "you don't have siblings or cousins?"

"No," Lily answered back as she wondered why he's asking such things. She brushed it off her shoulders though, they were extra weight.

"I don't have either."
