The Story Of Us

5. rain on me

~ Friday/ 10. 11. 18 ~

( Soarin's pov )

It seemed as the weather was in uncontrollable confusion today. You see,  In the morning the sky seemed clear, no gray clouds in sight. Just the bright sun shining its blinding light upon us. No more than an hour later droplets begin to pour straight to the ground. 

I heard no news of such strange weather, therefore I came unprepared with no raincoat nor umbrella. Just my navy blue hoodie I tend to wear on Fridays. Perphaps the reason I heard no news was my lack of interest in watching television unless it's sports related. 

Yes yes, shame on me. I know. Normally my mother tells me about what's going on in the real world when she drops me off at school, or at least back in the days when she used to. Nowadays her new job requires her to be there nine o clock am to 5 o clock pm. As for my father? His job is pretty much the same. That's the whole reason I have no choice but to stay at the after school program. 

Enough about the details of my parent's work life....

It's WAS 4th period before I begun to have a conversation with myself in my mind. Now Mr. Bieber is glaring at me since I haven't even begun to put my supplies away nor turn in the worksheet which may I add is currently uncompleted. 

I clear everything quickly and rush out of Mr. Bieber's classroom.  On my way to the cafeteria I catch up to one of my buddies, Discord, who isn't very faraway.

" HEY DISCORD!" I shout, trying my best to catch his attention. His hearing is nowhere near perfect due to his parent's constant arguing which also happens to be the reason for his constant mischief. 

" Was up Skies? Have you taken a look at the skies lately" he responded, snickering to one of his puns. Besides getting into trouble, jokes also seem to be his thing. 

" Have you seen the rest?" 

He shook his head with no reply. For a while he just stood there, eventhough the line was moving in a fast pace. It seemed as if he was looking at someone who was also in the line. 

Her hair was a bright rose pink shade and her eyes were emerald just like mine. Accompanying her was Rainbow Dash, the girl whose heart I shattered into a million little pieces back in the eighth grade. 

" You like her, huh?" It shouldn't be none of my business yet I felt the feeling of interfering. It's nice for Discord to have a love interest. He's never been the one to fall for someone so quickly, as in love at first sight.Just as I expected, no words slipped out of Discord's mouth. 

Eventually the rest showed up at different timings. Cheese Sandwich was the last since he likes to hang out with his girlfriend before showing up. He's the first and only of all of us to be in a relationship. 

" Why so quiet Discord?" Cheese inquired, right before chewing a piece of his cheese sandwich. The irony in that...

" Oh... Nothing "

" You sure 'bout that? Seems to me you can't stop staring at that girl sitting over there" Rapid Fire pointed, which seems awfully rude. My father says pointing a finger at someone is something you should never do, but then once again. It's Rapid Fire. What do you expect? 

" Wait a minute-" Rapid Fire paused for a moment, acting all melodramatic. " Weren't you Soarin, once close to Rainbow Dash, which just happens to be her best friend?"

Wave Chill simply facepalmed, disappointed at Rapid for bringing such her up. The rest simply kept quiet, expecting me to say something. 

" Well, I I... Yeah, I used to you know but then-"
