Everyone knows that High School is pretty damn complicated and no one knows it like
me, Clarke Griffin. Since I began attending The Ark I'd only made one friend, not to
regreat that though, and never managed to get the acceptance of others, that was of
course because my mother was the headmister in my School, and the laws she applied
were never taken lightly by the other students. Still, I had befriended this amazing guy
named Wells, who was son of the school deputy headmaster. He was a great person and
always made me laught, mostly when I most needed it.
The day began when I arrived at school, I would ride home with my bicycle, a gift
from my father before he was murdered in coldblood when I was only 14 years old.
Three years had passed from that horrible situation I had to go through and still I
could feel the ache in my heart.
As always, the main entrance to school was full of the most popular guys, the football
players and the cheerleaders. I didn't know them well, but with a simple look I
could tell how different we were.
"Hello princess", said Bellamy Blake, one of the school most wanted guys. "Where's your
boyfriend? Wells was it?"
"Hey", said I, with little patience on my voice as they were blocking the main
entrance to the school. "He's not my boyfriend and please could you let me pass?"
"Oh right, of course we wouldn't want to keep you waiting", said Bellamy while keeping the
door open for me, "there you go, princess".
"It's Clarke, for the record", I said, this time my voice with some anger. Was it so hard
to call me by her name, we weren't even friends.
"Princess suit you more", he said, and while I was leaving I could feel his gaze over me.
The day went by as usual, but it wasn't until the last period before lunch time that it started
to get awful. I was in Art class, one of my favourite ones, sitting side by side with Wells
when the proffesor catch Bellamy and Finn, who were sitting at the back of the classroom,
using their phones. Mr. White had this thing against phones, more like he hated them.
"Bellamy, would you do me a favour and sit here please?", he said while pointing towards
the place where Wells was seated. "And you Wells, could you please sit next to Finn over
there?"
Great, I was going to have to put up with him the rest of the lesson, what a nice day...
Once they were seated at their knew spots, Mr. Whiter kept one with his class.
"So, how are you doing", said Bellamy almos in a whisper.
"Look Bellamy, I really like this class, so please shut it", I said trying to whishper and pay
attention at the same time.
"Whoa, sorry princess, didn't realize that", he said.
If I thought he was going to keep quiet for the rest of the class, I was pretty disappointed.
"You know, we don't know each other very well and there's this party on Saturday over
Finn's place, why don't you come?, he said quietly.
I thought for a moment what he was saying and inmediatly declined. Every party Bellamy
attended was known to be crazy as hell. And I didn't want to be part of those girls who
where crazy for him, he wasn't worth it.
"Thanks, but I'll pass" I said in reply.
"C'mon, don't you wanna have some fun is Saturday what else do you have to do?
"Look, Bellamy I appreciate it, but I don't think..." I got trailed off by the sound of the bell.
"I'll see you over there, around 10" He said, and then went over to Finn in the back of the
classroom.
"So how was it, sitting next to the biggest douche in the entire school", Wells said while we
look where to sit in the cafeteria.
He was right about him being a douche, most of the time he acted like he was some kind
of God, not to mention his behaviour everywhere he went to.
"Not as bad as you think", I said "I actually got invited to one of his parties, you know the famous ones?"
And boy they were famous, everyone talked about those parties as if they were magical.
At first I thought he was joking when he told me to go, we didn't even get along, but
something in Bellamy's voice sounded different, not the stupid guy he was but more like a
normal person asking someone out. Wait, was he asking me out, that thought hadn't
crossed my mind but it was very unlikely, he was more of the one-night stand guy and I
was never going to allow something like that.
"But you're not going though, right? Said Wells, while grabbing some of his food.
"Honestly I don't know", I replied, unsure of the answer. Half of me was against it and the
other half of me wanted to know what it was like it. " I'll let you know tomorrow". I just
didn't want to keep thinking about this any longer.
School finished, and I went out to grabb my bike and head home, when an arm grabbed
my elbow.
"Sorry, thought I should tell you my adress, Bellamy told me he invited you" Said Finn,
Bellamy's best friend. He handed me a piece of paper with his adress scribbled down and
left towards his girlfriend, Raven. She and I shared some classes and all I know about her
was how smart she was. Like out of this world smart.
Anyway, I put the piece of paper back in my bag and went home. Tomorrow was the party
and I still didn't know what to do. Finn sounded pretty serious, so it couldnt be a joke.
The day went by slowly, till I couldnt fight my eyes and went to bed, thinking about Bellamy
Blake of all people...
