The forgotten Promise
Part 1
was in high school when I fell in love for the very first time. I barely remember the way he looked, all I remember were his cold blue eyes, looking at me the day he said goodbye. He promised he'd come back for me… that was 4 years ago. He kept saying he loved me, yet here I am, my first day of collage. I know he's not coming back. But I haven't fallen in love with anyone since then. My name, is Rock Lee, and here is my story.
I stepped onto the doors of the massive building, called Koran schools. This is where the students that had either special skills, or great academic promise go. I was the only one from my school who made it in, because of my track talent. Did I neglect to mention I'm a national champion in distance, 400 meter, long jump, and hurtles? Because I am. I wouldn't even be here if mom didn't become sick. All I wanted was a simple life, going to a small collage, getting a quiet job, but life is just not fair. Or maybe, god is just hates me. So now I'm here, because one way or another, my mom is getting that medicine, and I refuse to let her die, not now, not until I find that bastard. Excuse my language, but on the topic of betraying lovers, my dad left me and my mom to fend for ourselves when I was only 2, but that's another story. Well let's hope I don't get crushed by my very own classmates today.
"This is our new student." The teacher announced to the less than thrilled students. Those who weren't reading or studying were talking amongst themselves. "He comes from Riverside High school." As soon as he said the school's name the class suddenly became very intrigued. Not one eye wasn't on me, can you say awkward?
"There must be a mistake." A boy with light purple eyes declared, "This isn't community college."
"Neji…" The teacher said calmly, "Please be gentler with what you say."
"Unless you slept with the principal, there is no way you could have made it in this school." The boy pressed, flipping his long hair, "Am I right? You're just another one of the ho's that are going to be kicked out within a week?"
Am I the only one thinking this guys is attacking my ethnics? "I don't even know you and you're already accusing me of things." I sighed, "Look, I don't need your, or anyone else's approval to be here. Oh, and by the way, you're Neji Hyuga, the so called 'protégée', correct? Shouldn't someone so smart be able to infer that I'm not your average student? I mean, come on, do I look like the kinda' boy that would be a whore, because personally, I don't strike myself as the whorish-type." The room suddenly became silent, guessing from the quiet whispers that filled the room; People usually don't stand up to this guy.
"Oh really, then why are you here? You don't look all that smart to me." He pressed. I wasn't sure if it was his tone or just that annoying know-it-all smile plastered on his face that made me really want to sock this guy in the face, this was turning out to be a really screwed up day.
"My academic skills are 2 grades higher than the average 18 year old," I said, trying to ignore the giggles that filled the room, "But that's not the reason I'm here."
"Then what Is the reason?" He laughed, that stupid smile still showing on his girly face, "What's your name anyways?"
"My name, Is Rock Lee and I'm here because…" I got interrupted by another man finishing my sentence.
"He's here because of his Academic, Track, and Leader skills. Oh, he's also not all that bad at common sense, you could learn from him, Neji-kun."
I didn't know what hit me first, that cold, familiar voice, or those long arms draping around my shoulders, "It's been a long time, Lee."
I refused to see if my fears were reality as I walked to my seat. This can't be happening, not to me, not now.
"Oh! Kazekage!" The teacher exclaimed, "I didn't expect to see you here!"
"Yep, just came to see my new student." The man answered, walking over to my seat.
"We use to go to high school together, me and Lee. Just came to see him." He laughed, grasping my chin and turning my head towards.
His striking blood-red locks catching the light, those unforgettable neon blue eyes surrounded by black eyeliner still mesmerized me. Even after all these years his beautiful body was still teasing me, as he smiled with those blindingly white teeth. "See you later." He said, releasing my chin. And just like that I was hooked. I was in love with the same bastard who left me 4 years ago… and I didn't care at all.
Loving you was my downfall, if only I didn't come to this school, I wouldn't be here now, if only… you didn't taint my heart to only yearn for you.
