"Lazybutt" she whispered

"If you don't stand up there. I am really going to drag you out of your damn bed." She warned him again and looking at Zidane furiously.

"5 more minutes.." Zidane said in a sleepy voice, Kaija can't take it anymore. She grabbed his leg and dragged him hard out of bed and out of his room, "OUCH!" Zidane hit his head hard on the ground, but her older sister did'nt care about that.

"If you woke up late again, That's not the only thing your going to get from me. Get ready or we will be late for school." Kaija said

"yeah, yeah whatever.. ow" Zidane said scratching his head and he stood up and went to his room again to take a shower and after that he fixed himself and ready his stuff for school.

"Kaija, where's your brother?" Their mom asked.

"He's getting ready." Kaija replied while eating her breakfast, suddenly Zidane was ready and head to the kitchen to eat his breakfast. Zidane was rubbing his head from what happened earlier then his mom saw him

"What happened to your head?" His mom asked.

"Kaija dragged me hard." Zidane replied still rubbing his head. His mom looked at Kaija

"What did you do that?" Her mom said.

"Hmm? He's lazy getting up so I helped him" Kaija said simply.

"your just getting old.." Zidane whispered.

"What did you said LAZYBUTT!!" Kaija shouted angrily

"I SAID YOUR GETTING OLD!! YOU CAN'T EVEN HEAR WHAT I'M SAYING!!!" Zidane shouted

"Why YOU!!!.." Kaija shouted and starts to grab Zidane's arm but her mom blocked her.

"STOP IT!" Their mom shouted, but they didn't listen to her.

"That's why your hair turned gray because you're getting old!" Zidane teased

"I'M GOING TO KILL YOU!!!" Kaija was reaching to Zidane but she can't reach him because her mom was blocking them from each other.

"I SAID STOP IT!!!!!" Her mom shouted loudly and they stopped,

"That's better.., If you continued arguing you two AND mikoto will going to be late." Their mom said with an angry voice, the two grabbed their bags and went to the car.

The two went out of the car and they're still angry at each other, when they're going to leave the car their mom suddenly said "Hey! No arguing you two, ok?" Zidane and Kaija nodded and their mom left. Kaija evil glared at Zidane and left "old lady.." Zidane whispered but Kaija didn't heard it and Zidane went inside the school.

LINDBLUM HIGH SCHOOL (INSIDE)

Zidane was going to his locker but suddenly he saw his friends Blank, Marcus and Cinna, He approached them "Hey" He greeted.

"Zidane, we saw your sister" Marcus said

"She's scary.." Cinna added

"She's like she wants to kill those people who blocked her way, she's soo not in the mood. What happened anyway?" Blank asked

"Oh its nothing, just ignore her. She's just getting old." Zidane said grinning at them but the three just looked at him blankly. Suddenly Blank saw "someone" and he looked at Zidane

"Zidane, look behind you" Blank whispered to him and points at the cute girl with long, beautiful, dark brown hair, with brown eyes, and an angelic face. Zidane looked behind him and saw the girl that she really really liked

"Is that Garnet?" Cinna said looking closer at the girl that Blank & Zidane was looking, if it is Garnet, Marcus was looking closer too

"It is her" he said, Cinna looked at Marcus and looked back at the girl

"Really?" Cinna said. Zidane's heart was beating louder and louder, and faster and faster when Garnet is getting closer to them.

"Hi guys, Hi Zidane." She greeted and smiled at them.

'She's soo beautiful, she's like an angel' Zidane thought staring at her angelic face, and there was a long silence and Zidane was just staring at her.

"Ehem.." Cinna broke the silence and pushed Zidane towards to Garnet to help him wake up

"What did you pushed me?" Zidane looked back and whispered to Cinna,

"Greet her" Cinna whispered back. Zidane looked back at Garnet, who's looking at him

"umm.. Hi." Zidane greeted her shyly, Garnet giggled and smiled at him

"So, how's your Christmas vacation?" Garnet asked. Zidane looked back at his friends and looked at her again.

"Who? Me?" Zidane asked pointing his finger at him.

"Yes, you." Garnet said giggling.

"Duh, Who else.." Cinna added

"err... It's great, I had fun. I celebrate my Christmas with my family, How about you?" Zidane said and asked her. "Yeah, the same as you. I spend my Christmas with my family too" She replied.

'Sigh.. She's soo cute when she's smiling, and the way she talks too.. It's like I'm talking to an angel..' Zidane thought. Marcus, Cinna and Blank was looking at him.

"Geez,.. He's daydreaming again" Cinna whispered to him.

"He's always like that when he's talking to Garnet." Blank added

"He always goes blank and just stares at her face." Marcus whispered

KKKKKKRRRRRRRRRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The bell rang, the students need to go to their 1st period in 5 minutes. "Well, I gotta go. I'll see you all later." Garnet said, but Zidane is still in blank. Cinna Pushed him again to wake him up.

"Say goodbye to her" Cinna whispered to him.

"Oh.. umm.. Ok, Goodbye. I'll see you later too" Zidane said smiling at her

"Ok, Bye guys, Bye Zidane." She left and waving at them.

"Bye.." Zidane whispered and looking at her while she's leaving.

"Sigh.. Man, when it comes to Garnet, you're weak." Blank said putting his hand to his head and shaking it.

"I.. I can't take her beautifulness, her cuteness. She's like an angel you know, I always don't know what to say to her when I'm talking to her and-"

"Yeah, yeah. We get your point. So stop daydreaming, Garnet's gone now lets go because we have 2 minutes left to go to our 1st period or Ms. Beatrix will kill us." They hurried to their 1st period class.

1st Period

"You four, for the 5th time. You're late again." Ms. Beatrix said to them. She is their 1st period teacher in History, she's really strict when it comes to being late late in her class.

"Why are you four late again?" She raised her eyebrow.

"Uuumm.. Zidane was daydreaming." Marcus said.

"Yeah, and we couldn't wake him up. hehe.." Cinna added.

"Hehe.. very funny. If next time you four late again, you'll stand outside for the rest of the period, understand?" Ms. Beatrix said to them.

"Yes, ma'am.." They said in unison.

"Good, now sit down" She said. They sat in their seats. Then Ms. Beatrix started to make some announcements "Ok class, welcome back to school. But before we start I have some announcements. The New Year's Festival is coming, those who want to make their own booth, please see Ms. Lulu in her office by the end of this week. Also, I will be on vacation the next two weeks so you will have a sub. You better be good!" Ms. Beatrix warned.

"Thank God! Finally no one will scold us for being late in the morning." Zidane murmured to them happily.

"Finally she will be absent for once." Marcus whispered back. they silently cheered.

"But, the sub-teacher that will be replacing me is strict too. Don't be happy about it" Ms. Beatrix added

"Tch. As if.." Zidane whispered

"Shut up Zidane, I heard you." Ms. Beatrix said

"What? How did she-" Zidane whispered but Ms. Beatrix starts to talk.

"Ok class, let's start. Quit messing around, you better pay attention today because I'm not here tomorrow. You're going to have a quiz tomorrow with the sub-teacher." she warned then the class groaned in unison because they hated it when they're having a quiz.

While Ms. Beatrix discussing about the quiz tomorrow, Zidane got bored and his eyes got heavy and slowly his eyes closed and after 10 seconds. He opened his eyes, he saw the most beautiful girl in his life.

The girl was standing in front of the whiteboard, they were the only ones in the classroom and they were staring at each other. Garnet was starting to walk slowly towards Zidane, his heart was beating faster and faster, and louder and louder again.

Now Garnet was really close to him, Zidane can only hear his heart beating. Garnet leaned on his desk and she leaned forward to him slowly and puckered up her lips, then Zidane thought 'What is she going to do? Is she going to kiss me? AAAHH!! I don't know what to do! I can't even move!.. Wait.. I think, she really IS going to kiss me!!' Zidane was panicking from the inside. They were inch apart, you can hear Zidane's heart beating so loud because of nervous

" Zidane.." Garnet whispered to him.

"Y-y-yeah?" Zidane whispered back with a shaky voice.

"I wanted to do this for soo long, but I couldn't get you alone.." Garnet whispered, slowly caressing Zidane's left shoulder "And now, were finally alone at last.. " and then slowly moving her hand to his cheek, Zidane gulped and a sweat was coming down from his face.

"Zidane, I love you so much.." Garnet whispered and slowly leaned to Zidane's face, when their lips were almost about to touch...

KKKKKKRRRRRRRRRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The bell rang. Zidane opened his eyes and he saw 2 wide eyes starring at him like he saw the most scariest thing he had ever seen in his entire life

"MARCUS! You scared the sh!#$ out of me, I thought I saw a different side of you.." Zidane said and breathed heavily.

"Zidane, you almost kissed me." Marcus said

"Yeah, you were the one who scared the sh!#$ out of him." Cinna added then Zidane started to get confused.

"Bro, why are you stucking your lips out to Marcus?" Blank asked.

"Eew." Zidane looked at Marcus.

"I got sleepy, because I was bored." Zidane explained.

"So, you're dreaming?" Blanked questioned.

"Yeah, I dreamt about "her". She was about to kiss me, but then the stupid bell rang." Zidane said

"So.. That's why.." Blank said

"Why don't you asked her out after The New Year's Festival?" Cinna added, Zidane glanced at Cinna

"I.. I.. I can't do that!" Zidane said.

"Why not?" Marcus said.

"I don't know.. It's just that.. I can't.." Zidane said looking down.

"Don't worry bro, will help you." Blank added

"huh? really?" Zidane looked up and looked at Blank.

"Yeah, that's what friends or should I say brothers are for." Blank said, grinning and putting his arm to Zidane's shoulders.

"err.. Thanks guys." Zidane said.

"Anytime." Blank replied

"Oh, by the way. We have early lunch break today." Cinna said

"Why?" Marcus asked

"I think they will announce about The New Year's Festival, and they will be using the time of 2nd to 4th period to sign up those students who want to make their own booth for the Festival." Cinna explained.

"Woa, that's long." Marcus said.

"Yeah, and that's the time Zidane will ask his "Angel" to go out with him" Blank added. Zidane glanced at Blank "What!? I'll asked her today??" Zidane said in shock.

"Yeah, that's the perfect time bro. Be brave, Geezz.. You can do it." Blank said

"Remember, that we will help you" Marcus added, grinning at him.
