High School is a Bitch (yumikuri fan fic)

My Name is Ymir and I'm a Freshman

Today was my first day of high school. I had wanted to be in high school for as long as I can remember. Back then it was for the romance and being able to drive. Now, I couldn't care less about the romance. I just wanted her back. Yes, my ex. Her name was Hailey.

She was my everything. Getting messages from her made me really happy. Thing is she doesn't care anymore. In fact, she doesn't message or text me anymore. I miss her more than anything. I longed for her, but if anything, I needed something to make me forget and move on.

The first couple weeks of high school were exciting, yet uneventful. I hadn't made many new friends yet, I was waiting for the anime club to be announced. I sat in art class with one of the few friends I did make, Petra. She was a junior which helped quite a bit. We went on as usual, drawing human anatomy and listening to our teacher go on about some painting saying

"It's not a pipe, it's an image,".

The announcements then went off. The moment I was waiting for three years finally came.

"Anime club. In room E14 at lunch,".

My face instantly lit up. I could meet the rest of the otakus at my school and go on about all my favorite fandoms. Petra then interrupted my moment

"Oh that anime club? I hear it's really weird," she said. I didn't care

"Well I'll just have to find out for myself. I've waited three years for anime club" I said. She simply laughed

"Well that's a little excessive,".

Thank god I didn't listen to her. Not because of the club, trust me the club SUCKED but because of the moment that changed everything.

At lunch that day I walked all around the building unable to find it. I then found it, it was right next to my last class and I groaned. I walked in and the room was packed. At least forty people were in there. Watching anime. To my luck there was one seat left. I walked over and it was a blond girl.

"Hailey!?" I thought to myself. It looked like her and she gave off the same energy. Nervous, I approached her asking

"Can I sit here?". She smiled

"Sure!" We sat next to each other for the rest of lunch trying to see over people's heads to read subtitles. I never did get her name that day. I never really thought I'd be close to this girl, at first I thought of her as that mysterious girl that I kinda liked but we'd never get anywhere, would we?

Even though I hated anime club, I continued to go. Just see her and maybe even talk to her more. Maybe we could be, at least, friends.
