Chapter One

"You know, this play is actually kind of good"

My friend, Felix, smiled.

He started reading the medium thick book in his hands with newfound interest. Of all the years of knowing tall, extremely handsome Felix, it came as a big shock that the dorky gamer was interested in words other then on a electronic screen. And the book being the Romeo and Juliet play, of all things. He was the type of guy who wasn't afraid to embarrass himself to make the people he loved laugh. He was quite shy, despite his outgoing attitude with his friends. He also had a soft loving side that most girls of this school couldn't get enough of. I saw a few girls' eyes lit up at the sound of his smooth swedish accent. Even though I was quite fond of the dirty-blonde haired and blue-eyed Swede as a friend, almost a brother, I had no desire to make him mine in the slightest.

"I know right? I may not understand the language, but it is a really interesting story"

Added the girl next to me, Kara.

Kara, on the other hand, was the classical 'stuck-up snob who believed she was better then anyone else." Despite her thin petite figure and flawless curly platinum blonde hair, she was not very well liked here at school. Her dark brown eyes were cold and empty, just like her soul. Her flirty tone earned plenty of looks of disgust from the other jealous girls scattered around the classroom.

"well, I understood the language perfectly. it's not that hard to read. I have to say, I'm rather enjoying this little thing"
I added, earning plenty of looks of surprise.

"Lily-pad? Enjoying a play? Are you feeling okay? Do you have a fever?'

Felix teased, feeling my forehead with the back of his hand.

His gesture and nickname for me earned a lot of giggles and jealous stares from the various girls in the classroom. An audible snort of disgust was heard from Kara, and a soft, "slut" muttered from her lip-glossed mouth.

"Shouldn't be talking about yourself like that"
Felix laughed in a childish manner.

Everyone laughed, even our English teacher, Coach Hudson. Kara rolled her eyes and flipped her hair hatefully. My best friend, a beautiful Italian girl named Marzia, shot me a knowing look. I just smiled and rolled my eyes at her, catching onto what she was implying. She has been trying to get me and Felix together for the longest time. She found my infatuation with a senior in my art class ridiculous and pointless, but I always thought that she would be better for Felix anyway.

"Felix is right, you have certainly caught my attention Lily. What makes this play so interesting?"

Coach Hudson asked me.

"Well, despite being brought up to hate each other, they saw past that and loved each other as individuals and who they were instead of a rival. They also died for each other, even if it was for something stupid, we can all learn something from it."
I explained softly.

Coach Hudson's mouth dropped open, shocked that something even remotely intellectual came from my mouth. Which I understood, Felix and I were the clowns of the classroom. And Coach's favorite students, might I add. A few students looked around questioningly, as if to ask if I had really said that. Felix was shocked most of all, looking at me if I had gone insane.

I giggled. "Looks like Felix has a fever now."

I pressed my palm against his and he playfully swatted it away and rolled his eyes at me. I giggled again and the bell rang, indicating the end of school. Felix gave me a quick hug goodbye and dashed out the door so he could make it home in time to watch some tv show marathon. I gathered my things, but before I could walk out the door, Coach Hudson called me to his desk.

"Lily, come here for a moment."

His voice was soft, almost like a whisper. It was unlike him to sound so secretive. I turned around and approached his desk carefully.

"Yes sir?"
I smiled.

"I've talked to the Physical Education Coach, and i was impressed to hear that you and your older sister Oksana are the best students she has. Seeing as I'm the track and basketball coach, I was wondering if you two would like to join one of the teams"

He said.

I just looked at him. Was he trying to say my lazy, gaming sister was physically fit? I bit my lip to keep from laughing. It sounded so ridiculous, but I saw the sincerity in his eyes.

"You can't be serious Coach. Oksana doesn't do anything but lay around and play video games. She can't be that fit, but i'll talk with her and get back to you. See you tomorrow Coach, have a good day"
I smiled, walking out of the classroom.
