Chapter 1
- Him -
He ran his rough hands up the small of her back as his lips caressed hers. She ran her hands through his jet black hair as she deepened the kiss. He wasn't in tuned to himself, in fact he didn't even know why he was going out with Kathryn or as other people know her as Kitten. She broke apart looking into his sapphire eyes.
"Richard what's wrong?"
He sighed and pushed her away, dropping down to the edge of his bed.
"Nothing, just leave."
She placed her hands on her hips and started to scold him, but he wasn't listening.
He couldn't take it anymore, he was tired of just going out with any girl he need a girl that he could keep a serious relationship with. God how he hated his life at the moment.
"Richard are you listening to me."
He looked up and glared at her.
"Kitten I said get out, I don't want to see you anymore."
Rage flicked like fire in her eyes.
"So you're breaking up with me?"
Richard mentally slapped himself, why was she so damn stupid.
"Yeah I guess I am breaking up with you."
She screamed, grabbed her purse and stormed out of the room slamming the door on the way. Richard sighed and placed his head in his hands. He then grew angry and stood up, shoving his things left and right. He screamed, cursed, yelled and punched the wall with his fist. He landed in the same position with his head in his hands. He almost cried, but blinked back the tears.
"Why can't I find her?"
The perfect girl, the girl that would complete him, make him whole. He wanted a girl that would make his palms sweat, his heart race, his tongue tie. He wanted his heart to flutter when she touched his cheek and float on cloud nine when they kissed. He wanted a natural beauty, not a fake. He wanted to get lost in her eyes and in the smell of her hair. Was that too much to ask for in a girl?"Apparently for me it is."
He was tired of all the fan girls that he could get easily just by walking up to them or even just with a flick of his hand. He wanted someone that would resist, play hard to get.
"I give up you here me! I GIVE UP!"
He turned over on his side and closed his eyes not really sleeping, but just shutting out the outside world. The next thing he knew was the alarm clock going off. He slammed his hand down on it and it read six a.m.
"Damn clock."
He swung out of bed putting on a pair of jeans a white beater and a long sleeve black shirt over it with black converse. He grabbed his black school bag and passed the kitchen where Bruce was reading the paper.
"Breakfast Richard?"
He only grunted in response.
"No? Okay have a good day at school."
Richard grunted again and walked out to his black Mercedes and was off to school. He stop and picked up his best friend Victor Stone because his car was at the shop. Victor got in and Richard took off.
"Break up with Kitten?"
Richard drove faster with an angry look on his face and Victor just sighed.
"Dude when you going to settle down with one girl?"
Richard relaxed and slowed down as they pulled into the parking lot. The pair got out and walked through the school yard.
"I don't know Vic I haven't found her yet I haven't……"
But Richard trailed off and Victor turned to him.
"You haven't what?"
Richard smacked his hand on Victor's chest, stopping him.
"Dude what's your problem?"
Richard just gazed and Victor turned to see what he was starring at. In front of them was a new girl. She had long fiery red hair that went past her shoulder and cascaded down her back. She had stunning emerald eyes and a perfect figure. She had on a long red sleeve t-shirt, light blue jeans with rips at the knees and red flats.
"Do you see that girl over there?" Richard asked in more of a whisper. Victor grinned and took his friend's hand of his chest.
"Yeah I see her, what do you make of it?"
Richard was practically drooling, which made Victor crack up.
"She's perfect. I think I'll go meet her."
Richard started to walk off towards the new girl.
"Dude five bucks says I can get her to go out with me tonight." Richard said whiling turning back towards Victor. Vic's grin widened.
"You're on!"
Richard jogged over to where the new girl and Rachel were standing and chatting.
"Hey ladies."
Rachel just rolled her eyes, she knew this was another attempt to get a new girlfriend since he broke up with Kitten last night. News traveled fast at this school.
"Go away can't you see we're having an intellectual conversation?"
The girl beside her giggled and Richard could feel his heart jump. He pushed himself in front of Rachel and stuck out his hand.
"Hi I'm Richard Grayson, the cutest, funniest and sexiest guy you'll meet at this school. So can I pick you up Friday for coffee or a movie?"
The girl giggled again and stuck out her hand to shake it.
"Hi I'm Kori Anders and I'm not interested."
Before Richard could shake it she pulled it back and swept a piece of hair behind her ear. She then side stepped around Richard and her and Rachel walked off. They giggled and whispered as a shocked Richard stood there. Victor came over, laughing his ass off.
"Dude five bucks please."
Richard angrily jammed his hand in his pocket and pulled out his wallet reluctantly handing over the money. Victor snatched it out of his hands.
"Thank you."
The bell rang and a happy Vic along with a sullen Richard walked to their first class. Math. They pulled up a seat next to their other best friend Gar Logan.
"Hey guys, dudes have you seen the new girl?"
Richard's frown went deeper and Victor muffled a laugh. Gar raised an eyebrow.
"Strike out?"
Victor couldn't hold it in any longer he started to laugh and Gar joined him.
"Shut up!" Richard snapped.
"I can't believe you already asked her out and she actually denied you?"
"Amazing I know."
Some girls in the seat in front of the boys turned to Richard.
"Richard baby you can take us out!"
Richard sighed, this is what he was tired of.
"No, sorry."
They sighed and batted their eyes and pouted their lips, but Richard just turned them down. Class started and ended as the whole day went by and they had made it to their last classes. Richard had to part with his two buddies as he made his way to science. Just his luck the new girl was sitting next to him. A deep blush made its way to his cheek as he felt the heat.
Why is she making me blush? I've never blushed around a girl.
He took his seat next to her and he turned to her ready to apologize.
"It's okay."
Richard closed his mouth, confused.
"Um…uh…urm…okay?"
She giggled and a stupid smile played on his lips.
"Are you always so tongue tied around girls."
"No, you're the first one."
A light pink crept up to her face.
"Here let's start over. I'm Kori Anders."
He smiled.
"I'm Richard the…"
"Player."
She finished for him and Richard frowned.
"Yeah I guess you could call me that."
She lightly touched his cheek and he could feel his heart flutter.
What spell does she have me under?
"Don't worry I won't, it's in your reputation."
"Yeah, but I don't want to be a player anymore."
"Oh?"
He leaned back in his chair and placed his hands behind his head.
"I want to find her."
Kori giggled.
"Her?"
"Yeah the girl that makes my heart flutter with her touch, makes my tongue get tied, when we kiss we'll be on cloud nine. You know her."
Kori tipped Richard over in his chair as the bell rang, he fell to the floor with a yelp. She got up out of her seat and leaned down to whisper in his ear.
"Well tell me when you find her."
She then grabbed her bag and left him on the floor. He just sat there and watched her go.
I think I've already found her.
