(A/N) READ BEFORE YOU CONTINUE! So I had tweaked my story a bit, editing it and adding some more details so please know that the story has not changed much but there were bits of info that needed to be rectified in order for it to fit in better with the rest of my story. Plus, when I looked at it again, dear god I swear I would tell myself "do you English, bro?" cause man was some of the stuff I was writing not coherent at all. So please, you can skip ahead to the new chapter but I would advise you give the story a brief rundown and as always, leave a review and let me know what you think of it :D
Arcadia Bay, which was the name of this little mysterious town that I arrived in, looked quite peaceful and serene in the sunset. I have to admit, my friends picked a nice spot for me to take a vacation from all of the craziness we have been through.
"You need some air man. We all do but you need it most. So we already bought you a plane ticket and a bus ticket when you arrive". Damn you Jack and your care-free nature. You haaaad to be the guy who does what he wants in the spur of the moment.
I sighed to myself. Maybe this is what I need to cool my head. I mean, he is looking out for my well-being and he does care about me, I thought. Maybe, I can get some down time. I do have my education to worry about, and attending this Blackwell school he mentioned might get me out of my little funk.
I head to the school after asking some truckers in front of a gas station for directions. For the most part, this school looks prestigious and very...rich. This means I might deal with snotty rich kids. Go me.
I guess I must have groaned a little too loud cause someone just called out to me, "hey you cool man? "
I looked up at the boy who was talking to me. He was sitting on the edge of the wall sporting a red cap with a nerdy hipster glasses and looked a bit high but maybe that was me. One thing is for sure, he looks like a skater.
"Yea, I'm alright dude. Just got off a bus and a plane and I am tired as hell", I said as I climbed up the steps.
"Yea, man, you look like shit." He exclaimed with a laugh.
"I feel like shit", I laughed. "The names David. "
"Justin, hey you skate? "
"I used to shred on a snowboard when I went….traveling", I said as I rubbed my neck.
"Niiice, maybe you should come by so we can see some of your sick tricks, bro. "
"Yea, maybe when I feel better. I better go see the Principal. I am going to be enrolling this year so I probably will be able to show you how I used to ride a board. "
Justin's eyes light up, "That is rad dude. You seem cool enough so we should totally hang"
I nodded, "Will do, now if you will excuse me", and I walked towards the main building.
I saw where the Principals office was located and walked in to see the secretary. She greeted me and I told her I had an appointment to see the Principal, to which she let me in with a smile. The principal appeared to be a distinguished, bald man that was on his computer, too busy to care about his surroundings until he saw me. He stopped typing on his computer to greet me and talk about my enrollment in the school. The man introduced himself as Principal Wells and he was complementing me in my services and saying how the school was lucky to have me blah blah blah, it was very entertaining and inspirational. I kept a façade of course but I was definitely hating hearing this type of speech. I told Wells to not put such special attention on me but I think he ignored me. I couldn't tell due to my fatigue but after the conversation, Wells said I was enrolled and ready for class in the coming year. The principal said that I can enter whenever I wish to get a feel of the school. Getting ready to hand me a dorm room key, which I was trying to sound grateful for, I tried to decline the gesture, informing him that I was accommodated with an apartment. He insisted, however, and I ended up taking it anyways and hastily made my way out of the office. I was not about to be stuck listening to him try to kiss my behind all day.
In my haste, however, I ended up bumping into a person outside of the building and knocked her down. Shit, first day being here and I already probably made an enemy."Oh, man I am super sorry for this", I said quickly.
"Dammit dude, watch where you are going, you high or something? ", she said with rage in her voice as she was getting up.
I noticed she had a book bag that had some stuff scattered all over the floor. Dammit did I made this mess? I need to get some sleep quick.
"I just got off from a long flight and I am super tired so I did not notice you walking", I rushed as I picked up her things and placed them inside her bag.
I extended her the bag, trying to give it to her and I noticed that she was staring at me. Kind of like she was analyzing me for something. She sighed and grabbed her belongings.
"Alright that makes sense, I guess. So you enrolling to Black-hell? "
Huh, that was a little quick. "Yea, I am actually. So you probably will see more of me crashing into you some more", I joked as I handed her bag to her.
Why is she eyeing me like that? She was giving me a quizzical look and with her blue hair tucked under her beanie, punk shirt hiding behind her black jacket and torn up jeans, it looked like she was sizing me in a way. Maybe I looked a little too alien? I mean, I am turning 19 and I do get a lot of people telling me that I stand out but I didn't think it was this bad. Then again, pot calling the kettle black here. She looks like a punk girl from Hot Topic so I don't think I am too strange to this town. So why was she staring?
"As long as you don't make it into a habit and knock me down with such force, then it won't be so bad", she joked.
I chuckle at her remark, "Good to know, well I guess I will see you later then. "
I walked past her and was about to head out but before I do leave the area, "What is your name? "
"David, what's yours? ", I said as I turned my head slightly.
"Chloe"
"Pleasure to make your acquaintance Chloe", I exclaimed with a sarcastic bow towards her which makes her laugh. She walks away with a smile. Huh, guess I made a friend. I sigh to myself after rubbing my temple. Well, time to see if I will be getting that well-earned vacation I was promised.Authors Note: Hey guys I appreciate everyone who reads my story. I am starting out in fanfictions and I wanted to create a story, however what I felt like was appropriate was using a template to kick start the idea. Life is Strange has literally become my life. I CANNOT believe how good this game really is. I am still getting over Episode 4. When I saw Episode 1, I felt that this game had game-of-the-year potential and now, I am certain of it.
Now since I am a newbie at fanfictions, I do appreciate people if people could leave reviews as to how I do in these. Any feedback and critiques are welcomed here. Just be very professional with your review. I will try to update this story as much as I can.
