First fanfic, gimme tips, don't own Bleach and stuff. Don't know if I will continue this. This was just an idea that popped up in my head, when I was reading someone else's fanfic.
"Speaking"
'Thoughts'
Chapter 1
BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP
The sound of your irritating alarm reaches your ears in your sleep, and within seconds you find yourself slamming the snooze button to get those precious extra minutes of rest.
7 minutes later you need to stop resting, because it's simply impossible for you to sleep again after you wake up once.
You step out of your bed feeling tired, and you go through your standard morning routine. (Brushing teeth, doing your hair, etc.)
When you are done with your morning routine, you grab your phone and start doing random shit on it, like checking Instagram and Facebook.
After you have enough of social media, you look at your clock.
It's 8.15 AM. "Time for school." you think out loud.
After about ten minutes of cycling, you reach your school. You check your watch.
"Damn, I'm 5 minutes early." you say.
You put your bike down at the nearby fence and walk into your school. As you walk to your classroom, you start reminiscing your life for no reason at all.
Your name is John de Krijger. You live with your parents in the Netherlands. You're very good at English, so you can speak Dutch and English. You're 15 years old and you attend high school. In just two years, you will be able to go to university. At school you always are that guy who is happy most of the time, and jokes around often. But this is just your mask. Few people know the true John. The smart gifted John who is silent and awkward. The John who likes videogames and reading, and who lacks social skills. Only the people who you respect from the bottom of your heart know that John. You don't really know why you have that mask. Maybe because you want to know if you can trust someone first?
"Yo John!" You suddenly flash back to reality and look at one of your true friends.
Mark is a short guy, at least from your perspective. He is 16 years old and has his blonde long hair thrown back. His mother fled from the war in Serbia when he wasn't born yet. But when he grew up, he became interested in his motherland and started to learn Serbian. He speaks it fluently. And you often hear him swearing in Serbian. He taught you some Serbian words, and you understand most of his swearing now. That's one of the reasons why you are the only one holding your laughs during class when he talks about something random.
"What's up Mark?" you reply.
You chat a bit about random stuff. Finally the schoolbell rings and it's time for classes to start.
'Great, 2 whole fucking hours of German.' you think.
The classroom slowly fills with students and you sit at your regular place.
The class was, as usual, extremely boring. You can't even grab your phone to do something else, because you know the teacher will see it within seconds. You don't wanna risk losing your phone for 3 fucking days.
RIIIIIIIIINNNNNGGGGGGG
'Finally!' you think.
It's time for a break. As you wander towards the canteen, you another of your true friends walking in front of you.
"Yo niggah!" you greet him.
"What up, John?" Your friend Kevin responds.
Kevin is a short black guy with a mini-afro. Most of the time he wears a cap. He also has hipster glasses. Just like you, he is good in English and he speaks it fluently, but unlike you, he is good in using an American accent, while you prefer British.
You spend your break with him. Then it's time for your next class, mentor class. An hour of doing completely nothing.
Great.
You begrudgingly take your seat at the back left corner in , you sit alone. Because of that, you can peacefully look out the window and get lost in thoughts, like you always do.
But today is a bitch.
"Class, I would like to introduce you to our new student, Tia Halbi!" you hear your mentor say.
"It's Tia Halibel, not Halbi" an unknown voice replied.
"Oh, I'm sorry. Class, it's Tia Halibel!
Now Tia, could you please take a seat next to...John!"
'Oh goddammit' you sigh. 'There goes my hour of peace.'
For the first time during this class you stop looking out of the window to look to the front of the class.
Tia Halibel is a tanned girl with messy blond hair and a thin ponytail. Your eyes immediately wander to her bust. 'Damn' you think. 'That bust can rival Anna's!'
Anna Baker is the slut of your class. She's just 15 year old, but her bust and attitude make her an eye-catcher for the whole freakin' school. It's kind of hard to not be a pervert around her.
As Tia sits next to you, you turn back to your regular routine of looking out of the window. Well, you attempted to.
"Hi, I'm Tia. Nice to meet you, John."
You look back to Tia and smile. "Nice to meet you too." You furiously hoped that she was the silent type that she wouldn't speak too much. But you also wanted to know if she could be one of your true friends. So you use your mask, the happy joking John.
As she greeted you, you got a good look of her face. Tia has thin blond eyebrows and beautiful blue eyes. She also seems to have some blue tattoos in the form of a lightning bolt on either side of her face.
'Wait, tanned, blonde and blue lightning tattoos?'
'Holy mother*******god. Kami, are you shitting me right now?'
"Is everything okay?" You are broken out of your stupor by Tia's question. "Yeah, I'm okay!" you quickly reply.
"Attention class, I will now explain which classes you-..."
The rest of your teachers words don't reach you, because you are once again lost in thoughts as you look out of the window. Because of this you don't see Tia glancing at you every minute.
XxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXx
You walk to your bike, still lost in thoughts.
'How in the name of heaven did I meet a Bleach character?'
Suddenly you bump into someone and you land flat on your ass. 'Ouch' you think.
"I'm so sorry!" You look up to the owner of the feminine voice. It was Tia.
"No I should be the one apologizing, I wasn't looking." You give her a sheepish smile. When she was about to walk away something came to your mind.
"Hey Tia, can I ask you something?"
"Sure, ask away."
"Which country are you from?"
"My parents were born in Hawai, I was born here. Why are you asking?"
"Oh, just wondering" You smile and went on to get your bike and go home. You were truly wondering where she was from. Hawai seemed a fitting answer. You once again miss that Tia follows you with her eyes until you are out of sight.
The rest of the day nothing interesting happened. But you did remember to ask Tia her phone number, because you have everyone's phone number. Just that. Nothing else. Really. I'm not lying. Right?
'God, I need to stop overthinking this shit.'
With these thoughts you went to sleep.
BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP
'Goddammit' is the first thought of today.
You pressed the snooze button almost five times before getting up. You just didn't want to go to school today.
XxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXx
Today you aren't too early for school. Just 2 minutes. Unsurprisingly you see nearly all the students hanging around the classroom. You were the last one.
"Class, please take your seats."
Your first class of today starts, math. You see that Tia is in this class too. "Why do I have so many classes with her?" you start wondering out loud, "Does she have the exact same lessons? No, that's not possible, right?"
"Dude, you gotta stop talking to yourself." Mark said.
"Shut up Mark."
Your first two lessons passed by quickly, and soon it was time for a break. You grab your sandwich from your bag and start eating it as you walk to the canteen.
"Hi John." A voice behind you suddenly said. You turn around and see Tia walking behind you.
'Let's see what I can find out about her.' you think.
"Hi Tia, what's up?"
"Just chilling. Hey, can I have a look at your schedule?"
'What does she wants to do with my schedule?' You think. "Yeah sure, why not?" You grab your agenda from your bag and give it to her. She immediately opened it and started flipping pages until she found the schedule. Years of experience and effort have made you a master of recognizing any expression on a human face. And as Tia read your schedule, you saw surprise on her face, then a bit of confusion, which was almost immediately replaced by joy. She looks at you, smiling.
'Her eyes are really beautiful.' you think. 'Ok, where dafuq did that come from? I barely know her. Get a grip, John!'
"Thanks for letting me see it! It seems that we have the exact same schedule every day." She smiles. "See you at physics!" Tia then turns around and starts walking away. If you weren't so good at hiding your emotions, your jaw would be touching the floor right now.
"I will be speaking and working with a real-life anime character every day? God, y u do dis to me?" If you could do it, you would be crying anime tears now.
XxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXx
It seems Tia wasn't lying. Every single class you saw her. A lot of times she sat next to you, because you were sitting alone. Every time that happened you thought: 'I'm sitting next to a anime character.' And every single time Tia sat next to you, your friends would give you this knowing smile. Even Mark and Kevin did it when they saw you. It pissed you of to no ends. The day wasn't even half done.
'I hope they don't do that shit everyday.' You promised yourself to spam them on Facebook the next day.
But on the bright side, Tia wasn't a bad person or something like that. She was always really nice to you. She didn't try to ask you annoying questions, and you actually think that she could one of your true friends.
But again, you've known her for less than two days. So who knows what has yet to be revealed?
"Oh yeah Tia, can I have your phone number?"
Tia raised an eyebrow. "John, I barely know you."
"No not like that!" you fight to hold down your blush. But judging but Tia's face, you fail miserably. "I have the number of everyone in class. So I can message anyone in case I have a question, you understand?
"Don't worry John, I know." you saw she was holding back her laugh. "Just teasing you." She then gives you a warm smile.
'Beautiful smile' You suddenly think.
'Dammit John, stop thinking like that!'
"Yeah, I knew from the beginning you were kidding, I just played along." You gave her the best (read: worst) convincing smile ever.
"Yeah, sure." Tia replied. She still had that same warm smile on her face.
'I need to make her smile more often.' You think.
"Class, please do exercise 9 and..."
'Goddammit, I hate biology.' both you and Tia think simultaneously.
XxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXx
You walk to your last class of the day. History. The most annoying class of all time.
You sit down in the back right corner, near the window. And Tia sits right next to you.
You've noticed that Tia was pretty good in almost every class. You think she even does ALL of her homework. The only class she struggles with is math. But you help her out when she doesn't know what to do, because math is one of your best classes.
"John, please tell me that that woman is not our history teacher." Tia suddenly said.
"Welcome to my world, Tia." you reply.
"God, please kill me." Tia thinks out loud.
You stiffle back your laugh.
"You don't like history?" you ask Tia.
"I absolutely hate history." she responds.
"Well, that's another thing we have in common." You share a laugh with each other.
Your amusement was halted by the voice of your teacher. Class was about to start.
XxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXx
You and Tia are now walking to your bikes after surviving a hellish hour of history.
"John. You have my respect. You survived that woman for over 3 years."
You grin at her. "Well that shows just how awesome I am, right?"
"Don't push it."
You wave your hands in front of you as a sign of innocence. "Ok ok, don't hit me!" Tia laughs at your little act.
"See you tomorrow John!"
"Yeah, see ya." you reply as you walk to your bike.
You grab your bike and start cycling home, completely lost in thought. You finally arrive home and you are about to open your front door. But then you spot someone in the corner lf your eye. You manage to see the person without her noticing it. It was Tia. You continue opening your front door as if nothing happened, giving Tia the feeling she wasn't spotted.
'Was Tia following me? Why the hell would she follow me? Or does she live near here? Or maybe in the same street as me?' You have so many questions, and no anwers.
It seems you are home alone. You immediately run upstairs into your room. You throw your bag on your bed and look out your window. You see Tia cycling away, in the opposite direction of where she probably came from.
'So or she was really following me, or she saw me in front of her when she was cycling home and decided to see where I lived. I hope it's the last one. Otherwise it'd be really creepy.' You don't manage to stop a shiver from running down your spine.
'Oh wait, I can just look up where she lives.' You facepalm yourself for your not coming up with that idea earlier. You start your PC and look up Tia's adress. Anything can be found on the internet nowadays.
'Thank God, she is not a stalker' you think. It seems Tia lives in the same street as you.
'Wait, wut? Why did she leave in the opposite direction of where she came then? Shouldn't she be cycling into the same street as me?' You think. "Godammit, this shit is stressing me out!'"You suddenly shout. You shut down your PC and start looking for something to eat.
XxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXx
BEEP BE-
You quickly turn off your alarm. You woke up 10 minutes before your alarm went off, so you were prepared for it. You get out of bed and start your morning routine.
You get ready quickly and you find yousrself at school within 15 minutes. But you are 10 minutes early.
To your surprise, you see Tia sitting at one of the tables in the school. 'Should I join her and ask about yesterday? Or should I not? Or should I not ask her directly?' You decide to join Tia and go with the flow, as you always do.
"Hi Tia!" you greet in your happy John persona. Tia looks up and smiles. "Hi John! How are you?" Tia replies.
"I'm fine. What are you doing here so early?"
"My bike broke down yesterday, so I had to take the bus. It's either this bus or the next, but with the latter I'll be 5 minutes late."
"Damn, that's fucked up."
"I know right."
"How did your bike break down?"
You see Tia stiffen a bit after that question. "Uhh, I had to go to my appointment with my dentist fast. I think I kind of broke something in my hurry."
"It didn"t really look like you were in a hurry yesterday?"
"Yeah, I thought I had plenty of time. Guess not." Tia sheepishly laughs with that sentence."
'She's not the best liar.' you think, 'Or I'm just trained in recognizing this kind of shit.' You see her grabbing her phone in a desperate attempt to conceal her blush. 'Probably of getting caught.' you think.
Three minutes pass by with neither of you saying something to each other. 'You know what? Fuck it.'
"Hey Tia?"
"Yeah?"
You look Tia straight in the eyes. "Why did you follow me yesterday?"
You could see shock written all over Tia's face. "Huh..? I-.. I didn't-.. I never-.. uhh..." You keep looking Tia straight in her light blue eyes with a neutral face expression.
"You know, you could just ask me if you wanna come in my house. You know, like anyone else could." you say.
Tia's blush increased by tenfold. "No wait, I was just-.. I wanted to-.."
"You got anything to do after school?"
"No, but-.. I never-.."
"It's decided then! We have a lot of homework anyway, why don't do it together, right?"
"But-.. Wait, I didn't-.."
"See you at math!" you grin as you walk away, leaving Tia behind. She just watches with her jaw touching the ground as you leave.
'Nice one.' You think. You have a grin on your face for a good 5 minutes.
