I just want to go back to bed, not here in hell. I mean...school.
The fresh, cool air slammed into my face when I entered the school building. As I walked down the hallways, my two friends greeted me.
"Troye the man!" I saw Melissa out of the corner of my eye, she held a already bitten apple in her hands.
"Morning!" Isabelle smiled goofily at me.
I smiled at the two of them and headed towards my locker, finally getting it open, I pulled out my math textbook out of there. Slamming it back shut, I came face to face with a dolled up face. Dolled up face of a girl. I wasn't exactly worried about her, I was busy wondering where my friends ran off to without telling me.
"Hey! You're Troye, right?" She happily asked me, putting a strand of her blonde hair behind her ear.
"Uhm, yea.." I answered, something more than a whisper.
"Thank God! I thought I got the wrong person!" She had a heavy sigh of relief.
"And you are..?" I dared to force myself to speak to this stranger, that was also a female.
"Oh! I'm Flora Junes, I'm a...friend of Xavier." Flora smiled but a flicker of uncertainty flashed in her eyes, she hid it quickly by blinking a couple of times at me.
"Cool." I responded, not wanting to extend our conversation. She raised her eyebrows at me, as if she expected me to say something flirty back. Gross, who would flirt with this chick? She looked like some teenage girl that is comstantly jumping in and out of relationships.
"Troye! Come on!" Melissa called out.
I un-naturally smiled at Flora and ran off to my friend, clutching my books and binder.
"Why were you talking to Flora Junes?" Isabelle whispered to me, slightly smacking my arm.
"She just appeared when I closed my locker, I couldn't shoo her away or anything," I snorted. "How do you guys know her and I don't?"
"She's Xavier's girlfriend. They've been doing this on and off thing for months, it's completely stupid." Isabelle spoke as Melissa nodded on the other side of me.
"She said they were just friends, what a weird girl." I said, frowning.

I was walking peacefully down the hallway, when someone suddenly threw their fist at me. Blaming my bad reflexes, I was hit square in the jaw.
Looking up, I saw Xavier, huffing and puffing.
"What the hell man?" I gritted my teeth, reaching up to my aching jaw.
"That's what I should be saying to you!" Xavier roared. He looked like he was ready to kill someone, if he hadn't already.
"What're you talkingー" I started, my voice calm.
"You were flirting with my girlfriend! Don't act stupid, Griffin." He said, dropping his fists at his sides.
"That blonde chick? What the hell did she tell you?" Finally, I raised my voice a little bit.
Man up, Troye.
"She told me that you were trying to do some nasty stuff with her, I thought you weren't that kind of guy." Xavier said, disappointment showing on his face.
"She's the one that flirted with me, no way I would flirt with some random girl that just shows up at my locker." I defended myself.
"Xavier, you have a girlfriend?" A small voice appeared from behind him.
