The daydreamer

(LANA'S POV)

I am very familiar with the popular saying that no one is perfect.

But that happens to be a big lie because I know someone who is the most perfect being on earth.

His name is Atlas Shaughnessy and I have been writing and daydreaming about him from the first day I saw him.

That was the first day I walked in to the cafeteria nervously clutching my tray on my first day in Golden Child's High. He was sitting with the most nonchalant look on his perfect face. It wasn't hard to find out who he was considering everyone had his name on their lips.

Atlas is the third out of five sons of Mr Maverick Shaughnessy, a business tycoon and the richest man in Golden valley city. Mr Shaughnessy owns several productive companies in the country and as I have mentioned earlier, he has five handsome sons.

Their names are Andres, Alderson, Atlas, Adrian and Avril. They are like young gods of Gold Valley city. They have the looks, the wealth and the class.

Atlas is my mate in school and so I have the chance to see him a lot. I am also two of his one hundred and twenty four thousand followers on I*******m. (Both ghost accounts.)

I'm not a weirdo, I promise. If only you could have a glance at him then you would understand.

Atlas is an embodiment of beauty and perfection. His perfect soft looking golden blonde hair that I daydream about running my fingers through, oval shaped green eyes that sometimes look like they have golden specks in them and perfect thin pink lips that I am dying to kiss.

His physique has me drooling every time I look at him. Like during swim tests and gym class. His abs are perfectly lined all the way down to there and his lean but well built body made his tall model like figure look even more gorgeous.

He always looks like he is uninterested in what is going on around him or like he is deeply submerged in a world of thoughts. Eighty five percent of the girls in school have his picture in their lockers, hidden or glued and whenever he sits at the cafeteria , he is always surrounded by the popular group….

"Earth to Lana!" Paige's sharp voice made me jolt out of my reverie and look up from my notebook.

Paige cleared her throat and narrowed her eyes. I followed her glance and shut my notebook slowly as anxiety filled me.

Valerie Wilson stood in front of me with a disgusted look clearly written on her face. June and Kay her friends were standing behind her as usual. I had no idea what was going on but I noticed that Daisy and Paige my friends were no longer seated beside me.

“Get out of that chair you lowlife!” She yelled at me in a raised voice.

I felt embarrassed as I looked around the class noticing that everyone’s attention was on me. My friends looked sorry for me.

“Do I have to repeat myself and tell you that I feel like sitting at the back today? I don’t have to tell you shit, you don’t even deserve to be in this school. Ripping off our money. Get out!” She repeated angrilly.

This time, my friend Daisy reached at me and pulled me out. I held on to my books and bag as I got pulled away.

Valerie and her friends took their places at the seats my friend and I had been occupying while we in turn moved to another section.

“I’m so sorry Lana.” Daisy said with a comforting hand on mine. “We had no idea you weren’t paying attention.”

“And we stood up so fast we didn’t really calculate.” Paige offered.

“It’s fine.” I said with a tight smile.

It was all my fault for getting lost in a daydream anyway.

I could hear people around me sniggering. I wish I could say I didn’t care even though I have faced worse than this and I have also faced it more than a thousand times. But humiliation was always painful no matter how many times it happened.

I could never get used to it.
