Chapter 1: New Student.
High school was one of the toughest parts of a person's life. Kids were always out to get you if you didn't fit their criteria of being normal. It was survival of the fittest and the smartest will always survive. This is what Durbe believed anyway. The teen was a short, nerdy person who valued books over people. He never spoken to anyone and always had his nose in a book. He didn't think he was better than them but he was too different. The boy was always nervous when talking to people and avoided doing so like the plaque. Even talking to teachers made Durbe's nerves go into over drive.
It was October and even was gearing up for Halloween. It's when the pranksters and assholes had the time of their lives scaring unsuspecting people. Durbe hated this holiday with a passion. He always ended up getting prank by someone. The class was lively as student began to talk about their plans for the holiday.
"We should have a party at my place." Rio told her two friends, Kotori and Cathy. "It will be amazing." Rio was the queen bee of the school. Jocks and nerds alike always strived to gain her attention. Durbe, of course wasn't interested in such things like teen royalty. It was pointless.
"Count me out" grunted Ryoga. Ryoga is the twin brother of Rio and was a real bad boy. While in school, he was a lone wolf but after hours; he ran with gangs. A person Durbe avoided at all costs. It wouldn't be good to run into him in a backstreet. Durbe would admit, he was frightened of Ryoga.
"Oh! Can I come too!? "asked Yuma. Yuma is very energetic and nice to everyone. Durbe doesn't mind him much. They worked together sometimes on projects.
"You can't just invite yourself, Yuma. That is rude." Astral chuckled at his friend's excitement. Astral…he is a mysterious boy. No one knows that much about him but he does have a twin brother.
The door opened and a blonde hair young man walked in holding a clip board. "Alright. Settle down, the teacher will be here in a moment" told Kaito. Kaito was a student teacher and worked as a teacher's aide. He is rather strict.
The class began to settle as a older young man walked in with long silver hair tied back in a braid. Chris Arclight was his name. His younger brother, Thomas was also in the class. "Good morning, everyone. How was your weekend?" The students began to mumble out different things that happened over the weekend. The teacher smiled and began to write some formula's on the board.
The door opened and a pink hair boy walked in. "Brother, the new student is here."Michael smiled.
"Michael, I told you to call me Mr. Arclight while in school." Chris replied slightly annoyed. The class let out a soft laugh.
"Oh right. Sorry. Anyway, the student is in the hallway. Mr. Faker had me show him around but this is first class." Michael explained with a smile. He then turned and led in a tall blonde hair teen. His hair reaching down his waist and tied in a low pony tail; the blonde looked around and gave the class an uninterested look.
From his seat in the back; Durbe's eyes widen a bit. The student was quite …beautiful? The male was fairly androgynous The purple hair teen looked away and brought his book up covering his face to hide the blush that stained his cheeks.
Chris smiled and picked up the attendance sheet. "Ah. They already have you written. Good! So your name is Misael, correct?"
The blonde nodded "Yes. "he told with a thick French accent. "I transferred here from Paris, France due to my father's company and my mother always wanted to move here. Thank you for having me."
"Oh wow! You are very polite. That is refreshing." Chris told. "Arlight. There is a few open desks in the back. You can pick one and I'll see about getting you, your science text book after class. I have to go to the storage room to get one. For now, you can share with someone. "
Misael glanced at the teacher before moving into the back. Durbe was shaking a bit as the blonde sat down beside him. So much for sitting alone in the back but it was only a matter of time before the extra desks were filled. Maybe if Durbe was lucky, the new student would leave him be.
" Chat.." Misael said to Durbe.
The teen jumped a bit and looked at Misael."Huh? "
"Chat…" Misael paused for a moment and began to speak again. "Cat. Your hair…it reminds me of a cat."
Durbe blinked. "Oh…" he looked away nervously. His nerves were acting up again.
"Will you share your book with me?" Misael asked.
Durbe continue to shake and didn't reply. He shoved the book over Misael in a nervous matter.
The blonde blinked a few times and looked at Durbe curiously. "You scared? Why?"
Kotori got up from her desk and moved to sit beside Misael in a extra desk. "Don't mind him. Here, you can share with me." He giggled a bit.
Misael blinked. "Very well." He leaned over Kotori's desk and looked at the book. Durbe let out a small sigh and quickly grabbed his book and brought it up to face. Soon he began to calm down.
Hours later; school was over and Durbe was putting books away in his locker. He quickly grabbed his bike helmet and headed towards the doors. This was his least favorite time of the day. The halls were crowded with people and he had to fight his way through which would make his nerves go crazy.
Soon the teen made it to the bike rack and unlocked his bike before getting on and heading home. He cut through the park and rode his bike down a path. On the other side he met with the side walk and a cross walk which led to a street corner. On that corner a small house stood. It was his home.
A silver car was parked in the drive way which made Durbe blink a few times. "I guess Nasch is home." He muttered. Nasch was his older brother who worked at night. "A day off I bet."
Durbe put his bike in the garage and headed inside. "Nasch? Are you awake?" The teen let out a gasp as he was hugged tightly by his brother. Nasch was wearing a black suit and sported short purple hair with similar bangs as Durbe.
"You are home! Finally! I got news for you!" Nasch told with a smile. The man smelt like booze.
"Have you been drinking?" Durbe asked with a annoyed tone. "Why are you wearing a suit?"
"Oh , my dearest little brother. I got big news." Nasch smirked.
