Chapter 1

Aaron

I looked at the mirror as I brushed my hair. Today is the first day of school, and I want to be presentable you know.

Who knows? Maybe I'll get a lover today, right? I giggled at my thought. I looked at the time and when I saw that it's almost time for the bus to arrive, that's why I took my bag then I dashed out of my room.

"Bye, mom! I won't eat breakfast today, the bus is almost here!" I shouted as I ran to the door. After going out of the door, I ran towards the bus stop to wait.

After waiting for a few minutes the bus arrived. 7:30 right on time I thought as I went up the bus.

"Good Morning, Mr. Johnson!" I greeted the driver as I went inside the bus. The driver smiled and there I took the front seat since it's free.

"Morning, Aaron!" My best friend, Nathalia said as she sat beside me. I grinned at her as she set her bag in front of her.

"Morning! Good thing you aren't sleepy today" I said as I chuckle, she grinned then she opened her bag, and then she showed me her bottled coffee.

"Sorry bitch, I have my coffee today so I'm not sleepy at all" she replied. Yeah, you're not sleepy now but let's see later I thought as I laughed at what she said.

"Mhm, we'll see about that" I replied. She raised her middle finger at me as I laughed. While we are talking, a guy went to us.

"Hey, Nathalia, do you have time later? Want to go on a date with me?" He asked as he holds his bag. I looked at him trying not to laugh. Dude, you shouldn't have done that I thought, I looked at thalia to see her reaction and it's her usual is this guy fucking serious right now? face.

"Oh, what a shame, we both like the same type. I like women too" she said as she looked at the guy with a straight face. The guy looked shocked then he suddenly became angry.

"What the fuck? damn homos" he whispered before he left our seat. Nathalia flicked her middle finger at him then she slept.

Told you, she won't make it to school I thought. I looked at the window of the bus and there, I saw many cars, buildings, and stuff you know, the usual view of a city.

After a few minutes, we finally arrived at school. I shook Nathalia up so she would wake up.

"Hey, Nathalia, Wake up! we're here" I said. She blinked as she woke up. Then she stretched her body as she took her bag that is now sitting on the floor because it fell earlier.

"Yeah, thanks for waking me up, let's go," she said when she stood up from our seat. I stood up to and we started going down from the bus. While we were walking, the guy earlier went to us again.

"Hey, Nathalia, are you guys dating?" he asked as he looks at our intertwined hands. Nathalia looked at him as she raised her eyebrow.

"What? Is it considered dating if we held each other's hand?" she asked, the guy was speechless then Nathalia and I started walking towards the campus. I smirked as I looked at her while we're walking.

"Wow, Ms. Popular as ever you're starting off strong there," I said as I laughed. She looked at me as if I was dumb and shit.

"Shut up, I don't want that popularity," she said. While walking, Nathalia suddenly froze in her tracks I looked at her first then I looked at where she was looking at. I looked at her teasingly when I saw what or rather who she was looking at.

"Hmmm, I see, so you still like Sarrah Handerson huh?" I asked her as I looked at her teasingly. I can see her cheeks getting a little bit red.

"Girl, we need to go to our locker, come on, or else we'll be late," I said as pulled her so we can go to our lockers. While walking she was still looking towards Sarrah, then when we got to our locker she finally went back to earth.

"Hey Ms. Lovestruck, come on get your books, move it!" I said as I clap my hands to get her attention. She looks at me while holding her books as we walk towards our classroom.

"Hey, Ron, I think I'm in love," she said while she looks at me as if that shit wasn't obvious. I facepalmed at her then I placed my hand on her shoulder.

"Girl, I hate to break this to you, but only a newborn baby wouldn't figure out that shit with how you act towards Sarrah," I said. She looks shocked then she asked me that made me feel dumber.

"Is it really that obvious?" she asked. I looked at her with my is-this-bitch-serious face then I answered her question.

"Miss, do you even know how red you are right now?" I asked her. Oh don't worry, we already arrived at our room and we are now seating on our seats. I took a mirror out of my bag then I gave it to her.

"Use my mirror and you'll see how red you are," I said. She chuckled at what I said. I laughed along with her then I placed my mirror back on my bag again. The Teacher then entered the room when the bell rang so she can start the class.

While taking attendance, the door of our classroom suddenly opened then a guy entered. He's tall, good-looking, and has a nice build type of guy, he's a brunette, and his eyes are a beautiful type of blue. He looks like a model.

"Well, Mr. De Vega, why are you late?" Our Adviser said as she looked at him. He went towards the teacher.

"Sorry, I woke up late," he said. His voice is really good, he has a deep voice. I can feel my cheeks getting red. Nathalia looked at me then she smirked.

"Easy there, Mr. Lovestruck, you're gonna make the poor guy melt with your stare" she whispered, I lightly slapped her shoulders to make her stop then she laughed. The guy started walking then he stopped at our row. I looked up at him then I noticed that the seat beside me is empty.

Shit, please don't tell me you're not planning on seating there? I thought as I continue to look at him. Then he walked towards the seat beside me then he sat there. Fuck, Sir whoever you are please do not seat there, I planted my booger there earlier so it's probably stuck on your butt I thought, of course, I can't say that out loud. I don't want to be punched cause that shit hurts.

I can feel my sweat dripping down from my face, so I tried to focus on class. Fuck, I shouldn't have put the booger there I cursed on my thoughts. Don't blame me for that, It's just that I forgot to check my nose, okay, then it suddenly itches and I found a booger so I removed it then I forgot my towel that's why I wiped it off on the seat beside me, I know it's bad, but I have no choice, I think?

"Okay, since you guys are going to be classmates for the whole school year, introduce yourselves to your neighbors," Our homeroom teacher said as she gave us a smile. When I heard that, I can now feel my sweat running until my armpit. And here I was thinking of not talking to him up until the end I thought as I played with my pen.

"Hey, excuse me" Someone from my left tapped my shoulder and there is one person who's currently near me at my left side. I turned to him then I smiled at him as if I just noticed him.

"Oh, hey! What's your name? I'm Aaron, Aaron Miller" I said as I extended my hand at him. He stared at my hand for a while then he shook it.

"I'm Aziel, Aziel De Vega, nice to meet you, neighbor," he said. I laughed awkwardly when he said that. Then I took my hand back then I started writing in my notebook again.

"Wow, what a rude bitch this guy is," Nathalia said. I looked towards her then I saw her hand extended towards me. I flicked my middle finger at her.

"Shut up, you've been my neighbor for the past three years," I said. She also flicked both of her middle fingers at me before retorting.

"I know bitch" she said. Then class started again and of course, I started to listen while Nathalia started sleeping.

Well then, I hope I survive this year beside him I thought as I quickly looked at him.

Well then, let's go back to class.

And that was the beginning of my little crush on him.
