When Opposites Attract.
Chapter One.
Helens POV.
Today has been like many other days at school. Crap. My grades are plummeting, I'm constantly tired and last but not least I have boy trouble. Not the fluffy kind of boy trouble you'd read about in books or watch in movies, no, this is literally a 'I hate you, you hate me' Sort of thing. His name is Lucas, he is stunningly beautiful but has the personality of a lemon, all sour and bitter. In all honesty I think he picks on me simply because I'm the only person who doesn't kiss his toes.
Today has been a bad one though, I was simply minding my own bussiness when a tomato splated right next to my head, my body faced towards my locker I turn suddenly startled. The eruption of five boys laughed almost made me jump, my eyes focused on the one in the middle of the crowd, of course it was my main tormentor, Lucas. Luckly it looks as if they have any more tomatoes to chuck. I storm up to him heart beating out of my chest but anger coursing through my veins.
"What the hell was that." I demand and shove his shoulder with my hand, but obviously giving no effect. Lucas smiles down at me, sweet at first but then turning twisted and ugly.
"That? Well it wasn't me." Lucas denies. Both him and myself know the truth but I have no evidence so grunt in frustration and turn my back to him and his merry band of asshole to walking away. I was stopped about five steps forward as Lucas and his group walked past one of them tripping me. I go flying forward and crash to the floor, a pang of pain runs up my arms as they brace my fall. I get to my knees and look at the boy responsible, again their whole group laughing. Lucas and I lock eyes for a moment and I could have sworn I saw a little bit of sorry on his expression.
My vision of the boys is cut off by a teacher helping me to my feet.
"You Ok? Took quite a fall there." He says looking me over for cuts or bruises.
"I'm fine." I reply, getting steady on my feet and re-ajusting my back pack. Without another word I make my way to my next lesson which thankfully is my last.
When the last-minute ticks of lesson I grab my stuff and shove it in my bag. My shoulder almost creaks at he weight of the sack. I unlock the bike chain and begin to cycle home. Exhausted and sweaty I jump in the shower, only then do I feel the sting in my hands as I look down and realize little cuts I had not even noticed before. Fresh and clean I step out of the shower and wrap a massive white towel around me. Ready to spend the night relaxed, reading a book or watching Netflix I come into my room seeing my older sister -one year older to be specific- sprawled on my bed singing out loud and really off tune.
"Why are you in my room Rachel?" I say feeling my eyebrows lift. She sits up now looking at me.
"OK, so I came to ask you a favour. You know Hector? In my year, yeah well he asked me on a date and I felt too nervous to go by my self so I suggested a double date to the cinema and I really want you to be with me, please?" She asked, with big puppy dog eyes. I roll my eyes in defeat.
"When?" I ask.
"Saturday." This makes me feel even crappier, that means it's tomorrow and I would rather stay home and do nothing but I couldn't really say no. With I tight face I agree and sit on the bed next to her.
"Fine-" I couldn't finish my sentence because Rachel had screeched over my reply, standing on my bed doing a happy dance and chanting 'Thank you.' Despite my shitty day I smiled. As her crazy calmed down a bit she sat next to me again.
"So how was school?" She asked. I bite my tounge knowing that If I told her the truth she would probably cause havoc with Lucas and his group, I also know that Lucas is related to Hector and seeing Rachels mood I am so not dampening it.
"Yeah it was fine." I reply doing my best to actually pull off the lie. She looks at me for maybe a second to long but ends up shrugging.
"OK, so your cool to do this yeah?" I nod and just before she leaves my room she turns and adds.
"Oh by the way we're watching a horror called 'Annabelle' so try not to shit your self." I calmly deliver her the middle finger and she exits the room grinning.
I wake up at around half eleven, feeling lovely and well-slept. All until I remember about cinema tonight and groan into my pillow. Damn the things I do for this girl. I spend the majority of the day in my room watching T.V, only leaving to go to the kitchen for food or coffee. I must have dozed off because next things next Rachel is sat next to my bed rocking me awake.
"Wake up lazy. We have an hour before we need to be there. Dad said he'll drop us off." I nod in understanding and she jets out of the room most likely to get ready.
Once I'm reasonably presentable I knock on Rachels door and open without a reply, but as soon as the doors open she whizzes past me.
"Come on Helen we sooo have to go." She said, I followed smiling a little at how flustered she was over it all. We both jumped in the car, dad driving, Rachel in the front and me in the back. He asked us what we were doing so he told us and then started doing the dad talk with boys, that we have heard a hundred times. Finally we arrive and hop out the car to start at the cinema entrance. I see crowds full of people in the building buying their tickets and popcorn, then a thought hits me.
"You know I forgot to ask who was coming with Hector." I say turning to Rachel. She smiles.
"Guess you'll have to wait and find out." I roll my eyes as she dramatically wiggles her eyebrows. Then I hear Hectors voice behind us and turn to see what awaits.
There's the first chapter, if you think you'd be interesting in a chapter two then tell me and I'll see what I can do ;) Ha ha. R&R.
