Kimi's POV

I could hear this really annoying noise. What was that? Turning over in bed, i realized, it was my alarm clock. Oh, why does the alarm have to work? Getting up, i sat on the bed trying to wake up. It was 6:30, an hour before i had to get to school.

Grabbing my clothes, i walked into the bathroom and started the shower. Man, the water wasnt hot yet. I kept checking it to see if warmed any, no. Damn, another freezing shower. The water heater was always acting up. It was like it knew when i wanted to take a shower so it never warmed my water. Stupid thing.

Rushing through the shower, i got out and hurried to put some clothes on. I'll be damned if i get sick from a cold shower.

Putting on my favorite pair of purple tripp pants and shirt, i finished it off with my matching armbands. i love black and purple together. Almost everything i owened was black and some other color, besides white and silver. Those two i hated most.

Pulling my hair back into a braid, i watched it cascade down my back. My hair went passed my butt. I loved having long hair. Only thing was it was always frizzy, no matter what i used on it, it frizzed. I dyed it black abuot a year ago and kept up with it. It suited my light blue eyes and pale complexion.

I guess your probably wondering about me. Well, My name is Kimi Whislter. Im 20 years old and live on my own. I'm in College now for my Art. I plan to be the greatest Artist in my small town. I live in a small town. nothing fancy is really here. The fanciest place we have is a Ramada Inn and rumors say its crappy place to stay.

I live close to my annoying mother. She beat me from when i was real little to 16 years old. Then she kicked me out. We got into a fight and she had my stuff packed the next day when i got home from school. I lived with my grandmother until i was 19 and graduated from High School. I enrolled into college while in was in High School. So here i am, going through College, and so far, its worse than High School/

Dont get me wrong, teh schedule is alot different from High School. I only have five casses to attend throughout the week, so thats the kool part. Crappy part is, i made enemies. The most popular girl in the college has it out for me. Worse, i dont know why. She's in three of my classes. Her name is Elle, a popular rich girl from Chicago. Luckly not in my Art class. Sadly in Math, Science, and English. Why do all those classes if you did them in High School?

Anywhoo, im sure your tired of hearing about me, so lets go back to the several months before something happen that changed my life.

It all started with him. My savior.

I ran to the school, praying i wasnt going to be late. If i got another late slip, i would be confined to my apartment on the campus. To as much as i liked to be there than in class, it showed on my record and i didnt want that.

Seeing the gates, hope ran through me. Reaching them and darting in, i leaned on the wall to catch my breath. Geez, i was out of shape.

Watching other kids come in, i waited for the bell to ring. Hearing it only after that, i walked to my first class, Science. i hated Science. Half of it i was good at, the other, not so good.

Taking a seat up on the far desk, i pulled out my notepad and doodle pad. I took notes but when i got bored, there was my savoir, the doodle pad.

Watching kids come in, i waited for the one that made my days so long, Elle. She came in, dressed as usual. Annoying pink sweater, with a pink purse, pink belt, and pink pants. Worse, even pink shoes. God, the site made me cringe. How could someone wear so much pink? It was like against the laws of color!

Waiting for her to see me, i started to draw. It was a guy with his back to me. The wind was blowing his hair to the left.

Weird i never drew guys before? It was always buildings or animals, or even flowers. Never a guy.

A shadow loomed over me. Looking up, i stared into the eyes of the most hated person i could think of, Elle.

"What'cha doing Kimi?" she said with a snob look. "The obvoius, drawing" i said. Can she not see what im doing?

"Oh, i forgot your here for art, arent you? Gee, you really need to be here dont you? i mean look at that terrible drawing" she said grabbing my drawing from me.

"Hey look everyone, its Kimi's perfect boyfriend, too bad we can never see his face" she said waving it so everyone could see.

Half the class started to laugh. Some just gave me a weird look. Great. Something else to pick at me for. Drawing my to be boyfriend.

She turned back to me. "You know, your drawings cant come to life, so stop drawing such hott men, they wont love you" she said with a fake sorry look. Then turned and walked to her seat.

Oh, how i wish i could get away with murder right now.

Professor Tarn walked in and gathered the papers at his desk, then walked to his small mic.

"As you all now, today we have a new student joining us, his name is Zarek Chenzer" Professor Tarn said with a smile.

As if on cue, a tall guy walked into the classroom, up to Professor Tarn.

He was gorgoues. He stood taller than . His hair was jet black and pulled into a pony tail, it cascaded down his back. He was wearing all black, with blue seams.

"Sorry, i got lost, went to the wrong floor" he said with a small smile.

I heard gasps and ahhs come form the entire room, they were from all the girls. Some guyys who appeared surprised too.

I mean, the guy was really fricking tall. Secretly, it was the hieght i liked guys to be. But no one knew that.

"Well, , since its your first week here, i wont protest, but if it happens afterwards, im afraid i have to followe orders" Professor Tarn said with a soft smile.

I really enjoyed his class. Mr. Tarn was a kind and understanding man. He barely ever raised his voice to anyone and if he did, he apologized like crazy for it.

Although i was barely passing his class, he gave me special packets to help me grade stay to where i would at least pass. The were thick and long to do, but hey, i didn always have to do the same work as everyone else.

I did the terms and two of the worksheets but that was it. I knew of only two other students out of 24 that were in the same boat as me.

"Well. you may sit next too........." Mr. Tarn looked around the room. "Next to Mrs. Elle or Mrs. Whistler" he said with a soft smile. I froze. Next to me? Ohh shit please not next to me. I looked down to Mr. Tarn and Zarek. Our eyes meet. His were a soft light brown, with a light orange color near the pupil. He smiled.

Crap! I felt my face turn red and looked back down at my drawing.

"I think I'll sit next to Mrs. Whistler" i heard him say. Crap again! Carefully looking up, i saw Elle glaring at me and worse, her whole pink warriors sitting around her. Yes, i know its a dumb name to call her lackies, but hell they all wore pink!

Watching him through the corner of my eye, i watched him take his sit and simply loung back like he owned the place.

//I'm so dead// i thought kniowing when class was over, Elle would be up here in a heartbeat.

Class was slow today. It may be an hour long, but usually it went by faster than this. Probably cause the suspense of my life was going to be over in an hour.

The last 10 minutes, Mr. Tarn walked out to make copies of the worksheets for us, Zarek leaned over towards me.

"What'cha drawing?" he asked casually. I covered the drawing with my arm, but didnt look at him. "Something stupid" was all i could say. People always amde fun of my art. Worse they showed everyone the drawings.

I couldnt draw people and mammels well yet. Thats why i was here, to leanr to draw people and mammals. I could draw everything else fine.

He smiled. "Shy about people seeing it?" he asked. HIs voice was like rolling thunder.

"No, people just make fun of it" i said in a low tone.

"Well, lets take a look" he said and moved my arm. He looked at the drawing of a rough sketch of a wolf howling at the moon. Thankgod he didnt see the one of the man.

"Its rough, but looks kool" he said giving it back to me. Kool? My drawing looked kool? That was new. Looking up, i saw Elle glaring at me. Shit, im dead.
