Why'd I Have to Fall for the French Exchange Student
I hated school. It was hot and sunny outside, not to mention the crisp smell of autumn and leaves that littered the streets. A last warm day of October and here I was, sitting in a crowded lunch room watching the morning clouds clear and the sun smile down on my face. I couldn't believe it. Only a few days till Halloween and, being so behind on school work, I hadn't even got a clue of what to dress up as for the school costume party.
"Hey Luka, no offence but whatever world you're in at the moment, please come back so we can talk Halloween!" I blinked at Miku, not realizing she had been trying to tell me the answer to the exact question on my mind. I turned to the teal haired diva that was glaring at her with narrowed eyes.
"Uh, what is it Miku?" The younger girl rolled her eyes. I blew my coral bangs out of her eyes impatiently, wishing she'd just get to the point.
"I was asking you if you wanted to be Bulma or Chi-Chi." I blinked once, twice.
"Huh?" She rolled her eyes again as if what she was asking was obvious.
"For the Halloween costume party! We decided to all go as Dragon Ball Z characters seeing as it's the world's most popular anime and manga. And we happen to be ranked as the most popular students and most popular Vocaloids." I nodded.
I didn't really want to go as a blue haired slut or a married insane bitch with an obsession for shopping. But the worst part would be wearing a DBZ wig seeing as I didn't have blue or coal black hair. So I just decided to let Miku cut her hair of. I smirked at the thought; it would certainly be an improvement.
"I'll go as the Saiyan's wife. Can't be that bad, I guess." Miku looked past me and wrinkled her nose. I turned to where she was scowling. My heart began to race. Damn, why did it always have to do that when she walked by. Her innocent face, that adorable green hat. She was simply beautiful, with those emerald eyes and flushed cheeks. I blinked in realization and turned back to Miku who looked disappointed. With a sigh she asked-
"Luka, why do you like Momo so much? She's dating your exe who I'm pretty sure you still cry about. And she's only been going to school here for a month and a half." I crossed my arms and frowned at her.
Like she had any room to talk. She had practically gone out with every boy in the school just to hide the fact that she was in love with the bitchiest girl that hated her guts, Akita Neru.
Then there was Rin, she had dated Len Kagamine for a year or so. Then she dumped him for Yuki who only went out with her to get back at Len for ruining the chances of her and Lapis. Now she was dating Gakupo because she said he was "a good person". Kaito was going out with Miku's brother so he hadn't felt the worst. And Meiko was home now with Meito's baby. Right now I wasn't dating anyone; I was still getting over Akaito. But it was obvious to everyone in our group but Rin; don't ask me why, that I had it bad for the French Exchange student, Momo.
"I don't need your opinion, Miku." The aqua haired girl raised her arms apologetically.
"All I'm saying is she's probably into guys. And even if she isn't, she came from France, so you don't know who she's hugged, or kissed, or-"
"I get it. But I'm not going to give up yet." Miku shrugged.
"Whatever, it's not like you'll ever have the guts to make a move." I rolled my eyes, resting my head in my hand on the table. I watched her smile brightly and sit by her friends at the corner table. There was a young short haired girl with purple eyes, Yuki Kaai and Kasane Teto. As well as a girl with two braids and bright blue eyes who I did not remember the name of but I thought I knew from one of my classes. They sat there all huddled together, laughing about something and all smiling. I realized then that I wished I had friends like that.
I looked back at Kaito and Mikuo, who seemed to be the only ones in the group in a perfect relationship. Miku was texting someone looking angrily at her new phone, I wonder why? Then there was Rin who was fiddling with her clips that had slid out of place. Yep, definitely needed better friends.
A minute later the bell rang and the halls were flooded with students. I got up and looked back at my untouched lunch. I shrugged I could eat at home and the janitors would pick it up later. I walked with Miku, she was still texting. Then I saw Momo out of the corner of my eye holding Akaito's arm and smiling up at him. I let out a sigh. Why did I have to fall for the French exchange student?
