Chapter 1: Was it just me?
Alexis's POV
There he is. I wonder what I should say to him. Should I talk about school? Should I talk about dueling? Why is this really getting to me? I wonder if he has someone to go with to the end of term dance. This would be his last one after all. I wonder why I am so paranoid about this. After he is who he is right? He's my best friend besides Atticus. Then why is it so hard to think about what to say to him. I think I'm going back to the dorm.
"Hey what are you doing there all by yourself Alexis?"
I turned around only to find Atticus behind me smiling with his devil like expression like he just found out something interesting. I wondered what he was thinking. Just then, HE started to walk towards us. I tried to keep my cool and tied to put on my best "cool" pose as I could. I leaned against the tree and sighed. I saw him come nearer and nearer as my heart started to beat harder and faster with each step that he took towards us.
"Hey Zane!" Atticus leaped in front of him like a panther on his prey.
"Atticus…how many times do I have to remind you that pouncing on me is a really bad idea?" Zane stared in his friends eyes intensively.
"Hey are trying to pick a fight with me?" Atticus gave an equally intensive glare at him.
'Oh no this does not look good' I almost rushed between them until they began to laugh.
"Atticus, why is it that you always have to pick a fight when we see each other?" Atticus pulled Zane into a huge headlock and started to choke him to death.
"Hey, Atticus let go! You're really choking me now!" Atticus let go as Zane grabbed his neck trying to regain his breathing.
"Hey what's the big deal?" Atticus continually patting Zane's back till no tomorrow.
"Well of course you have to breathe to live right?" Zane recomposed himself and wiped Atticus's hand off of his shoulder, "What are you doing here anyway?"
"Well can't best friends be friendly with one another?" Zane glared at him. Atticus backed up a step with a scared expression, "What are you getting at?" Zane said with malice.
"Well as you know you and me were like the two big men on campus" Atticus saw Zane's expression soften again, "Well the big question is" Zane widened his eyes, "Who are you going with to the gig graduation dance?"
I was shocked watching them talk. It was so natural like they were siblings born and raised together side by side. I want that kind relationship with him. I want something more. I want to be closer to him. I want to be the girl who captures his heart.
"Alexis?" I looked up to notice the duo staring at me.
"Hey are you okay?" Atticus said putting his hand on my head
"Yeah I'm okay just thinking about something" They looked at me suspiciously. "Yeah I'm fine. Really I am I was just thinking about the dance that's all."
"Really, did you find a date yet?" I was flustered. What should I say to them. I want to say I want to go with Zane. What should I do? I stood up straight and composed myself, "Well, I'm still waiting for the right person to ask" I turned to Zane and winked at him. Zane's eyes widened he turned away from me.
"Well um, I think I'm going to go and study for the end of term exams. I'll see you later" Zane started to walk away as Atticus followed behind him. Was is just me or did he blush?
