Loonie Blanc sat in last period hoping for an earthquake.
Massive meteor to crash near by.
This sight of Godzilla passing my her classroom window.
Anything to get rid of this boredom she was experiencing.
10 minutes was so close to summer vacation and yet, it was so damn far away!
Ok, so may the first two about the earthquake and meteor were a little eccentric, but the last one was completely possible. With all the damned nuclear waste running through the water here, she wouldn't be surprised if one day she saw some mutated lizard came rising from the ocean.
She looked over the seat next to her were her best friend, Devlin St. James, was reading a note she had sent him concerning plans they had for the summer. She watched his brow furrow as he read. He finally looked up to her with a disbelieving look on his face. It didn't help that that face was gorgeous. And coming over from England when he was young, he still had some of his accent at eighteen. It was a major attraction for almost every girl in the school.
"You know your crazy, right?" he voice said.
"Oh, shut your face!", she whispered back, "Besides you know you love me for it."
"Doing some shit like this is completely crazy!"
"You're point being?"
"Mr. St. James! Ms. Blanc!", shouted the teacher, " Is there something you want to share with the class?" she said, "No? , then be quiet!"
"Damn..." Loonie said under her breath.
"See," said another female voice next to them, "I told you guys to keep your mouths shut. Class is almost over anyway."
"Well, do we ever listen to you, Gessie?" Devlin asked with a slight smirk.
She gave him a stare that told him he wasn't that funny.
At the exact moment the last bell decided to ring. Kids rushed from the classroom intent on finding places to finally have fun, forget school, and cause mischief during the summer.
Among them being, the three who were know to cause trouble. The student body had even given them the corny nickname of 'The Three Musketeers', which they hated. Devlin St. James, Gessica Houston. And the most infamous, Luna 'Loonie' Blanc.
"We're done!" shouted Loonie as she headed for the street.
"Ok, since I know you were talking about pulling a prank AGAIN in class, let me lay some ground rules for you bitches." said Gessica as they walked.
Both Loonie and Devlin stopped dead in their tracks to look at their friend like she was crazy. They turned to each with a look of disbelief then looked back at Gessica who was beginning to count rules off with her fingers.
"Did she say ground rules?" said Loonie
"I'm still on the bitches part" Dev responded.
Completely ignoring the statement, she began, "First, I want to know every single step of this prank we are pulling." she said looking directly at Loonie.
Loonie raised her arms in her defense, "Hey!"
"Don't effin' 'Hey' me! My mom freaked over the last prank we pulled because we got caught. Now, what we need to every single thing planned out a head of time or I'm not doing shit!"
Devlin just stepped back and arched a brow as he watched his friends battling it in the street about stupid ground rules. It wouldn't matter in the end anyway. Loonie always got her way. Good or bad, she was good at convincing others to do what she wanted. Thank God she didn't really notice she had that quality.
He rolled his eyes as the fighting escalated. Finally, having enough he stepped between the two best friends who were close to throwing punches. Again.
"Alright, alright, break it up. Let's not draw anymore attention to our selves her. You know these people out here already think we're gonna steal something from them."
"Fine," Gessica said as she straightened her jacket, "It doesn't matter if we have a plan her not. Even when we get caught her, mom never does shit!"
"God, I wish I had your mom," Devlin sighed dreamily.
"Whatever," Gessica huffed, "All I know is that it really isn't fair."
Loonie shrugged her shoulders, "According to my mother, it was that bad. Painted graffiti murals are what she see as," she dramatically waved her hands in the air, "a wonderful outburst of creativity." Even she had to laugh at the statement. Her mom just didn't care.
"Now, ain't that a bitch." said Devlin as he crossed his arms over his head with a peeved look on his face. "I got grounded for a good 4 months. And you didn't even get a slap on the wrist."
Gess looked at him with a weird look on her face. "You're such a New Yorker."Loonie pouted cutely while looking at Devlin with big brown eyes slightly out rimmed with blue. She walked over a wrapped her arms around his waist. He looked down at considering her 5'5 to his 6'3.
"You're not really mad at me are you", she asked in a cutesy voice causing him to burst out laughing. He looked down at her with a little smile. "No."
"Yeah!" she squealed as she tightened her arms around him causing to again laugh at her attempt and being a cute little angel that she was far from.
"Aw, don't you two look so cute together." said Gess.
This time Loonie was the one with the peeved look on her face.
"Shut your face, Gess."
Gess just started laughing even as Devlin wrapped his left arm around her waist.
"Ok. Seeing as how we are finally of the pain in the ass that is school education. Let's discuss this plan of yours, Loonie.", Devlin asked as they began to walk home. He looked down at the black-haired angel to his right with a smirk. "Why, don't you tell Gess so she can get off our asses."
That comment was met with a punch to the ribs causing Devlin to let go of both girls and crouch down, grabbing his midsection.
"Well," Loonie started, "Now that I've thought about it, we really don't have to do the graffiti thing again. I say we think about something else different that we can do. Something original. Well, it probably won't be that original, but whatever.
Gessica looked at Loonie like she had lost her mind, "I'm really not liking the way you're sounding."
Devlin got up from his position to looked at Loonie, "Yeah, me either."
Loonie looked at the both of them with a confused look on her face, "What?"
"You sound so normal, so out of character," Gessica started.
"What the fuck is that suppose to mean?"
"Well-"
"You sound normal, trick," Devlin interrupted with a smile.
"What the hell?" Loonie said, "Oh please, you guys can kick rocks. I don't give two nuts and a pole."
"That's more like it!" Gessica said laughing.
"Whatever," Loonie said with a smirk, "Let's go."
Devlin pouted as the trio started to walk to their bus stop," Why are you so mean?"
"You know if I wasn't so damned chubby, I'd be running to kick your ass."
"Well, that was surely random."
"Oh, God," Gessica said exasperated," Let's not start with this chubby, shit again."
"But I didn't say it like I was upset I was chubby. It's something called self-acceptance."
"Loonie, just keep your mouth shut."
"But-"
"Keep it closed!"
Devlin sighed again as his friends began arguing for the second time in minutes. Honestly, he really didn't know why he put up with the madness sometimes. It was enough to drive him insane.
Not far away, a lone watched the figures walked away.
The only male there was tall, well-built and very handsome. A honey-blond with aqua eyes, he had classic aristocratic features.
The two girls with him seemed attractive as well.
One of them stood about 5'4 with wavy, black hair that ran down her back. She had very light brown skin and the epitome of what many thought of curvy figure should be. The sharp attitude and rough words he heard display from across the street contrasted.
Now her friend was a different matter. She…she was the one he wanted. Black hair to her shoulders and a beautiful face she was perfect to him. A small but plump mouth and cheeks that had light dimples whenever she smiled. Her squared jaw had a slight cleft in its center and cute light nose. Smooth medium brown skin over a plum, voluptuous figure. Blunt bangs covered the eyes he'd only seen in his dreams. Set beneath perfect arch brows they were almond in shape and had a clear brown color with a tiny outer rimming of blue. They held so much in them. Yes, she was perfect, the one.
"Mine," he whispered with a smile.
