Hey so I've started an Erifef fanfiction! Enjoy ;)
Your name is Eridan Ampora and you're just chillin'.
Or at least you'd like to think your actually cool enough to be 'just chillin''. You're not exactly a Strider or a Serket. You're an Ampora, and your dad actually runs a pretty wealthy company, but nobody chooses to look at this. They'd rather not look at you at all actually. You thought by getting a 'cool' purple stripe through your dusty-blonde hair you would automatically become the coolest guy in school, but apparently not. No one particularly noticed except for Dave, who laughed and pointed it out to his friends. Who then also laughed. But you kept the stripe anyway, because at least you think it looks cool.
Anyway, that's not important. You're sitting on the bench outside of the classes. Your white t-shirt is flapping violently in the strong wind, along with the end of your long purple scarf. Your arms are bare and you can feel them start to form goose bumps. You fucking hate goose bumps, they're annoying and make you want to just rap a massive cape around your arms, but unfortunately the only cape you own is safe at home, hanging on the rack. Your legs however are completely protected by the power of your long boring old brown trousers. They're pretty worn out as you've always worn trousers like these, and you have a million at home. Your legs end in a pair of purple converses.
You decided that the metal seat you're currently seated on is going to freeze your butt off, so you stand up off it and grab the strap of your small black back-pack. Wow that was a mouthful. Anyway you're pretty sure if you don't head off to first class soon, Dave's group are going to come and hunt you down, so you think you might as well head up to your first class. You trudge you and your heavy bag up the never-ending wooden stairs. Well, they do end but to you it feels like an eternity trying to get up these stairs each and every day. You're not entirely sure why they haven't fitted a proper elevator in yet.
You eventually get to the top of the stairs feeling severely unfit. That's the way you always feel after taking the perilous journey up or down these stairs. You go to walk towards your class when you see a girl standing by the door. She has long brown shaggy hair that only just touches the tip of her waist. Her pale pink glasses match her pink lipstick quite well. Her light pink shirt is hanging off her shoulders so you can see the dark pink singlet she's wearing underneath. Her legs are completely bare other than a pair of denim shorts and the cute slip on shoes at the end of her feet. You're frozen at the top of the staircase, clutching the rails beside you for support. She's so stunning, and you're here gaping like a fool.
Snap the fuck out of it Eridan! If you keep staring at her, she's going to notice you! You quietly tell yourself to shut up and start to walk down the corridor towards her. She looks over to you and gives a bright smile, showing off her perfectly white teeth. You feel like you should probably smile back, so you force the tips of your mouth into a smile. It has been a long time since you've smiled and it was for a girl. You feel pretty proud of yourself. You stop in front of her and gaze into her fuchsia eyes. They're sparkling so brightly, you just wish you had some of that sparkle in your life. You suddenly realise how impolite your being, you haven't even introduced yourself yet.
"Oh uh, hi there! Are you new here?" Are you new here what a stupid thing to say. Of course she's new here if she wasn't you would've noticed a beauty like her earlier. Wow that was smooth. You quickly thank yourself for your amazing compliment then get back to waiting for her reply. "Uh yeah, I'm just waiting for the bell because I don't exactly have any friends to sit with." Her voice is the most angelic thing you've ever heard. It's not too deep but not high pitched, it's so soft and delicate you feel like if you touch it it'd break into a million pieces.
"So you're in this class then?" You gesture to the door of your classroom. "Because I'm in this class if you want a friend to sit with later…" Wow. You're so smooth Mister Ampora sir 10 out of 10. You tell yourself to stop being sarcastic and shut up. Your smile is awkward and embarrassing but you smile anyway. She smiles brightly back at you. "Yes I am, and I'd love to be your friend. What's your name?" Oh my god you impolite bastard. You already had this conversation with yourself and yet you still manage to forget to introduce yourself. You just won't shut up today will you.
"I'm Eridan. Eridan Ampora. You?" Her smile hasn't faded one single bit. "Feferi Peixes. Glad to meet you Mister Ampora." She holds out one of her delicate hands, gesturing for you to shake it. You take it, it's so soft, you just want to never let go. You shake her hand, the smile on your face no longer fake. You feel like this is the first time you've smiled in years. Well, properly smiled anyway. You never want this feeling to end, this feeling of just pure happiness, but unfortunately, as the bell rung out through the school, it had to.
Feferi's hand slipped through your grasp and you placed your hand back by your side. The corridors became crowded as people shuffled gloomily off towards their first class. You could see Dave and his girlfriend Jade walking towards you. Dave was in your class although you tried not to pay attention to him. He usually threw things at you or called you names but they had never really bothered you. Who are you trying to fool they bothered you a lot. Every name that got fired at you felt like it was being engraved in your skin. He was awful to you and no one really cared to notice.
He walked up in front you, your reflection looking frail and week in his glasses. He said goodbye to Jade and kissed her on the cheek. Jade had been your friend for a few years until she had met Dave. Ever since they had started dating she hadn't spent much time with you. Sometimes she gave you these really sad gloomy looks, like she really wanted to stop Dave from bullying you, but never did. Like she felt sorry for me. She was the only person in the school so far so you appreciated it. You just wish she showed it more.
"Hey doofus." Another name for the arm. Actually this was Dave's favourite name to call you so this name was constantly metaphorically scratched into your arm. Feferi looked at you, a confused look painted on her face. She was obviously confused as to why he had called you doofus but you decided just to roll with it the way you always had. Just ignore him. Dave looked over to Feferi, then gestured towards her with his head. "Who's your friend?" Before you could even begin to reply, Feferi, being the obviously optimistic person she was, stepped forward and held out her hand in greeting.
"I'm Feferi Peixes. You are?" Dave swivelled his whole body around to fully face Feferi. He took her hand but didn't bother shaking it. "Dave Strider, and might I say you are a beauty." He winked at her. Ugh, sometimes Dave disgusted you, although it wasn't anything new. He always flirted with everyone but who he was dating, and when they came crawling at his feet, desperate for him to date them, he'd push them away. Make them jealous. It was awful, some of them liked it. Feferi snatched her hand away from Dave's grasp and held it in her own hand.
"You fucking creep." You were glad someone shared your point of view on Dave. His face became unamused. You could tell he was thinking about why Feferi hadn't fallen head over heels for him. He left the two of you without a word, obviously deciphering how he would next approach Feferi. You turned to Feferi. "I'm sorry about him, he's usually like that but I'm sorry you had to see that." She giggled silently under breath, smiling at you. "No no, it's fine. I know his type. He thinks he's soo cool with all the friends in the world but he's really just a dick." You nod in reply. You feel like you're really going to like Feferi Peixes…
So here's chapter one! Enjoy!
