Prompt: Hank and Cordelia are high school sweethearts and then Misty Day comes along.
It was my junior year of high school when things started to change. I'd been dating my current boyfriend, Hank, for almost 2 years. He was the love of my life. He's nice an cares about me. He's all I ever wanted. That was, until a certain blonde walked into my life.
It was towards the beginning of the school year when I met her. Misty Day. That was her name. She'd transferred from a school a few miles away. She walked the halls like she owned the place, and with her radiant smile and sparkling eyes, she might as well have.
Cordelia."All the boys fell easily for her, even Hank. When I caught him talking about the "hot" new girl with his friends, I knew we were through. I was walking towards his locker when I heard laughing from around the corner. Hank stood there with his buddies asking about the transfer student. What her name was, if she had a boyfriend, and if she was down to fuck. Then he saw me standing in the hallway and tried to chase after me. I ran through the corridor and went into the girl's bathroom in the 200 hall and locked the door. I stayed in there for the rest of school and went to my car when the final bell rang. It was Misty's first day and I already hated her.
The next day, I had biology with the one and only Misty Day. And seeing that the only seat left available was the one next to me, I was stuck with her as a lab partner. She sat only a few inches away from me and I didn't know if I wanted to kill her or be her. She wore a teal blouse with a long flowing blue skirt. She had a belt that separated her shirt from her skirt and had on a nude colored cardigan. To finish the look off, she wore layered necklaces that matched her eyes. Her unruly hair stuck out quite a few inches from her head, and her makeup was dark yet fitting. It made her hazel eyes pop out. She was drop dead gorgeous, but she didn't have to know I thought that.
"Hi, I'm Misty." She said softly to me. She flashed me a quick, sweet smile that spread across her face and lit up her eyes. "Yeah. I know." I said rather harshly. "Oh. Well um...what's your name?" "Cordelia. Most people call me Delia but you're not most people so you can call me Cordelia." I snap back. I didn't mean to sound like such a bitch but I couldn't help it. She was the reason Hank and I broke up. She was the stunningly attractive reason Hank and I broke up. "Okay. Well, Cordelia, it's nice to meet you." She replied not recognizing the "back the fuck off" tone in my voice. Misty was cute in a way. I could see why all the boys liked her. She was very confident, yet her ignorance tot he world surprised me. She must've been one of those people that saw the good in everything and was too blind to see the bad.
We stayed quiet for a few minutes while the teacher rambled on about the different functions of a turtles' body. Not that I cared. Biology was a pointless subject in my opinion. Who gavea rat's ass about the insides of animals. Animals weren't my forte anyway. I loved plants. My best class was the Environmental Club. I just thought it was so amazing how plants could die off and then come back the next season into a new life but equally breathtaking as last season. Plants were almost as fascinating as the new girl. Both Misty and nature knew no harm and I guess that was why I felt so attracted to her.
The teacher told us that the people we were sitting next to now would be our partners for the rest of the year. That was just great. I now have these confused feelings for Misty and I have to talk to her every other day. Later, he told us that we have an assignment due in 2 weeks and that the partners would probably have to do work after school. What a way to start off the fucking year. Right before the bell rang for second period, Misty looked over at me then wrote something down. She handed me the slip of paper and left the room as the bell rang. "555-867-5309. Call me, Cordelia."
