It's high school and love is in the air; sweet adolescent love - the most adorable kind.
Enter Zachary Kurfirtova. He's 17 and in his senior year. But what makes our protagonist so special is that he is not, and has never been in, a relationship. Which is abnormal in this day and age where you're expected to lose your virginity at 16. Alright I might be exaggerating there a little but you get the point - our protagonist's life is just SAD. Depressing even. But Fate has things in store for our love-life-less hero for on Valentine's Day he receives a note, asking him to meet at the school rooftop at sunset.
As cliche as this sounds our hero jumps at the chance to possibly meet the girl of his dreams. Pushing aside his homophobic fears of meeting a man instead, he sets off to said rooftop to find -
A girl.
And a cute one at that!
But she's not too happy to see the protagonist - in fact she looked surprised; petrified as though she'd seen a ghost, for it turns out that the note wasn't meant for our hero at all - it was meant for his best friend, Abdul! Our protagonist put the pieces together and arrived at the conclusion that the girl is in love with Abdul and, being the gentleman that he thinks he is, offered to help by being the 'middleman'
Now you see, there's one huge problem here: Our hero didn't ask the girl whether she likes Abdul, he only assumes, given the evidence, that she likes Abdul. And being the main character of a love story you should already know, whatever he assumes is and always will be, wrong.
"You know you still want me." he said cockily. "As if!" I yelled at him. "I must say, I like the new look." he all but smirked. ************************** Alex was the shy, quiet nerd that nobody talked to. Although, she was shy at school she was quit loud, crazy , and pretty sarcastic. She just thought that nobody at school was worth her time. Damien was your typical cocky jock. He had the girls, the 'followers', and he was the captain of the soccer team. Now, you're probably wondering how they both fit in to the story. Well, they used to date. It just didn't end well. So, Alex now hates Damien. For the reason that he stole her heart and that he is, as she put it, "an egotistical asshole". ============================= Ok. So this is my first story I don't know how it will turn out. So, please comment and tell me how you think it's going. Oh and mild language.
