Title- A Mask of Perfection
Chapter 1
Magnus PoV
I walk into school with my black designer boots on, rainbow skinny jeans and a tight tie dye shirt on. I think the school might regret getting rid of the uniform and changing it to casual. I had my black hair done up in glittery spikes and glittery blue smoky eyeshadow. I love glitter. I'd say maybe I like it a bit too much, but then again, you can never have too much glitter. It was the first day of my senior year and boy I was looking forward to the end of it. When I first came to this school, I was bullied. I was open with my sexuality and proud of it. This stupid idiot decided to bully me for it, but by the end of the year he was at the bottom of the popularity order. And guess what? I was at the top. Well, I wouldn't say I had that many friends, but everyone admired me.
I looked at my timetable and groaned aloud. English was my first lesson. I had zero friends in that class. Just because I was popular didn't mean I was friends with everyone. My teacher, Mrs Fio, droned on and on and I must have fallen asleep because I woke with a bang. I looked up to see my teacher in front of me with a book in her hand. Ah, so that was the source of my sleeps disruption.
"Master Bane, can you give me an example of what coincidence means?"
"Yes ma'am." I replied with a straight face. The teacher was silent for a few moments.
"Well, give it to me!" Mrs Fio cried impatiently.
"Oh, you actually want it? Well why didn't you say so?" And I wrote it down and gave it to her.
She stared at me.
"Well? What are you waiting for? You wanted it. So take it."
She stared at me more.
"What?" I asked. "I know I'm attractive, but seriously lady, don't you think you're a bit old?" I smirked, hearing several fails of concealed laughter in the room.
"Right, that's it. Get out." Fio demanded.
I collected my books and stood up, walking to the door. But not without the last word.
"Sheesh lady, I was only giving you the answer to the question." And walked out, slamming the door, and glimpsing the annoyed, but hilarious looking face. I laughed and walked to my locker to get my books out for the next class because the bell was about to go.
5 minutes later, Tessa was at the lockers. She looked at me surprised that I was so early. And then she asked me what I did to the teacher.
"What? No! Of course I didn't do anything to the teacher!" I said as Caterina walked up.
"What did he do now Tessa?" Cat asked, looking at Tess.
"Why did you think I did anything to anyone?!" I protested indignantly at the same time Tessa replied, "He pissed off the teacher," and turned to me, "didn't you?"
I shrunk between the stares of Cat and Tessa. "Fine you got me. But all I really did was give her the answer to her question." Cat raised an eyebrow. "Really?" I grinned, and without replying I sauntered off through the halls to my next class.
Well I made it through that class easier. Art was my favourite subject and all those classes went so quick. I sat down at a table to eat my lunch with Cat. Tessa arrived at our table a minute later looking really excited.
"What is it Tess?" Cat and I asked her at the same time. We glanced at each other and grinned and then looked back to Tess. We knew each other so well, I swear we were becoming one person.
"Well… I saw this really hot guy this morning and he must be new, cause I've never seen him before, and he's soo hot, and he's got black hair and brilliant blue eyes, and I reckon you'd like him Magnus." She said all in one huge breath. "But I don't know if he's gay."
Tess was grinning so much I thought her face might explode, so I told her so. Then I caught a glimpse of raven black hair standing out in the crowd.
"That him?" I asked Tess, pointing at the mop of black hair. He seemed to be walking to the exit of the lunch room. "YES!" Tessa shouted, turning a few heads. She lowered her voice, glancing guiltily at the turned heads. "Yes that's him."
"Well then, goodbye my fair friends, I shall be off to see this black haired beauty of yours." I got up and walked away, Cat calling after me to 'go for it, Magnus'.
I quickly slipped through the crowd towards him, I reached the door at the same time he did.
"Hey, you seemed alone, so I thought I'd join you!" I said brightly. He turned around, while replying, "Sure, company would be welcome."
I almost died at the sight of his fabulous blue eyes. I felt my tummy jump and for some reason I thought the guy was an angel.
