Chapter One ~ Manly Deer
I walked to my locker, i was freezing cold, my hands were shaking. As i placed my fingers on the lock, shivers went down my back. If i knew that the weather was this cold, I would have worn more layers. I opened my locker but a moment later, i feel warmth going down my body. I look behind to see someone there. He placed his jacket around me. I let out a sigh in my mind now that I'm warm.
???: Wear more layers next time, okay? It's really cold and it wouldn't be fun if you were sick, would it? I'll see you around, okay?
He walked away before i could even ask for his name. I could only recognize his face. My hands touch his jacket and wonder when and how I'll be able to return his jacket. He must be cold too! Such a gentlemen. For once, someone treated me like a friend. I had a good feeling of this school. My day got brighter, i knew this school would be amazing! Everyone must be really nice here. I wish I could see his face again, the one who gave me his jacket. Hmm.. I'll give him a nickname.. manly deer? I smiled anyways with the thought of him in my head and the fact that I'll finally "fit in" and be able to make friends. I was more excited to go to class today. I got my books for first period and closed my locker. I held my books close to my chest and smiled as i walked down the hallway. I constantly had Manly Deer in my mind. As I walked halfway to my class, I heard a room filled with music. I stopped my the door to listen the beautiful sound of the piano being played. I closed my eyes and smiled to myself. The melody of this song has got me to swing back and forth, I've literally fell in love with this. I looked in to see that the person playing the piano was Manly Deer! I had my eyes wide open now, I was just about to walk to him and tap him but as I took my first two steps, someone pushed me, leaving me on the floor with my books all scattered. Manly Deer got up from the piano to help me up and pick up my books.
Manly Deer: Be careful next time, I'm not always going to be around for you. It's about class time, get to your next class. You'll be late.
Before I could say a word, he left, and walked out the room. My heart just stopped beating. I let out a sigh and realized that I won't ever be able to get his name or even get to say a word to him. Does he not like talking with people? Maybe he's just a cold guy? Noo that doesn't make sense. Why would he offer me his jacket? Why would he stop playing the piano and get up to help me pick up my books immediately? It makes no sense, he's such a warm hearted person. I'm left here clueless of the type of person he is, who he is, what's his name, and why he's being so nice to me. Why am I left hanging like this? More important, why am I constantly thinking about him? Why did I give him the nickname MANLY deer. Why manly? I don't know i don't know. I'm confused, did I already fall for someone on the first thirty minutes of high school? I tapped the person who was sitting by the piano.
Me: do you know who that guy was just at first? He was playing the piano.
???: Um noo.. this is my first day of school here, why are you asking me? Does it look like i know everyone here? Anyways he's weird, he doesn't even talk to people..
Me: um okay, thanks
Wow people are so rude.. and i thought everyone was going to be nice. I was just asking.. i mean you didn't have to be that rude, did you? I'm guessing Manly Deer is just someone who is talented and nice but is quiet. Somehow, he's still considered manly to me. I walked out of the classroom and was left with thoughts of Manly Deer, forgetting about the way that guy was talking to me at first. I walked up the stairs to second floor, but as i was halfway there, i saw someone on second floor staring down at me. I walked up a little quicker as the guy quickly disappeared. I looked around the hallway and saw no one similar to the guy i saw at the stairs. Who could he be? Why did he need to stare at me or look at me as im going up the stares? it's a little creepy but I just walked down the second floor, looking for my classroom. Ah room 204. I entered the room and walked up to the teacher.
Teacher: Hi, I'm Ms. Hayward and you are?
Me: (YourName), (YourFullName).
Teacher: Ahh nice to meet you (YourName). Please take a seat.
Someone walked in and told the teacher that all students are suppose to go to their homeroom instead due to schedule changes for today. I grabbed my stuff and walked to third floor. I looked for the room number 316. As I was about to open the door, someone from the inside swings the door and hits my head. The door bangs against my head and someone rushes to pull me out to the side.
Manly deer: are you okay? you know, something is weird, everytime something happens to you, I'm always there. Always. This is the third time I've bumped into you today. It hasn't even been an hour yet either. You should really be careful!
My head ached, I constantly rubbed my head because of the pain.
Manly deer: umm are you okay? Is your head okay? Do you need an ice pack? Or do you need me to carry you to the nurse at the basement?
Me: it's okay..
Manly Deer: not like this, look at you, if it's hurting this much still, are you really okay? I'll bring you to the nurse to get you an ice pack, okay?
As we walked down the stairs slowly, Manly deer kind of carried me down the stairs. It took us about a minute just to go down one flight of stairs, so Luhan just stopped and told me to jump on his back. I jumped on his back and he carried me. He ran down the stairs quickly. Second floor... first floor.. basement. So much faster than at first. My head suddenly went dizzy and i kind of laid my head on Manly Deer's back. I closed my eyes. The pain slowly went away. I felt a weird sense of happiness in my heart as this happened? Is this what people call love? Three times, he's been there to help me or i should say save me. Is this what people mean when they're "destined" to be together? For now, I felt i finally understood what others were saying, for now, I felt like I fit in this society, in this world. The nurse provided me with an ice pack and I placed it on my head where the pain was. Manly deer walked me back up to third floor. I haven't had a word with him till we reached the second floor.
Me: um may I ask you what's your name?
Manly deer: Does your head still hurt? Is it feeling better?
Me: It's feeling a lot better now, thanks.
Manly deer: that's good. I've told you, be careful okay? This school is kind of dangerous as you've noticed. When I say that, believe me.
Me: I believe you and thanks for saving me.. three times now. I think I would have fainted back there.
Manly deer: yea.. im glad you're feeling better now.
Me: um soo.. you haven't told me your name yet..
Manly deer: we're here.
He opened the door for me and gestured me to go in,
Manly deer: hope to see you around, be more careful, okay?
As I walked in, he left. Again, I was left hanging with the same questions. What's his name? What type of person is he? Why is he being so nice to me? I really want to know.
