Beauty and the Beast
"That boy is a monster..." the phone sang as the alarm kept ringing. As small hands picked it to stop the alarm the girl realized she was already 10 minutes late for class.
Hakushuu School
Alexandra finally made her way to school just in time for the second class. She spent enough time to look perfect before actually showing up. After all if you don't look good what's the point in even showing your face anywhere.
As she walked in to class she made her way to her "friends" or so to say the popular kids. It was pretty easy for her getting to hang with them. Being a foreign and looking stunning were huge pluses. It was currently her second year in high school and life seemed just like a bliss.
As the next class began Alexandra took her seat and pulled out a notepad out of her bag. While she was doing that her pencil also fell down. Just as she was about to pick it up the person at the desk behind got the pencil and gave it to her.
Alexandra looked at the huge boy holding the small pencil in his hand.
"Thanks." She said taking the pencil from Gaou. She turned back to face the black board trying to stop herself from blushing. She didn't like that guy. She didn't. He was so … huge. And those red tattoos on his face. And that hair and… She was done for. And there was no way she'd let anyone know.
The day went by fast. Maybe the fact that it was Friday made everything seem a lot better.
Just before the last class for the day Tomoki went over to Alexandra and the other girls who were standing in the hallway.
"Ladies, how about going to a club or two tonight?" Tomoki asked as the girls squeaked. He was pretty popular being the captain of the basketball club and so.
"Sure. But isn't it a bit illegal for us?" Suzuna asked. She was Alexandra's "best" friend and she was head over heels for Tomoki.
"I've got connections. So should I count you four in?" He asked. All the girls nodded.
Later that evening
"Bye, mama!" Alexandra said as she walked out of her home wearing casual clothes. She told her parents she'd sleep at Suzuna's place and that they will be watching movies. The weather outside was terrible. It was raining like crazy. It was a good thing Suzuna lived just round the corner.
The two girls got ready and waited for the boys to pick them up. Alexandra decided to leave her umbrella cause it wouldn't fit in her small bag.
As they got in to the car driven by Tomoki they began talking about stuff from school.
"By the way, that Gaou is really freaking me out!" Suzuna began. "Did you see the way he stared at Alex. I felt chills!" She exclaimed.
"Oh big deal. He just picked my pencil up. He wasn't staring or anything!" Alexandra said back.
"Now that's a new one! You defending that gorilla." Tomoki laughed.
"I'm not defending anyone. You watch the road!" Alexandra snapped.
"Whoaaa. Look who's all bitchy!" The boy laughed.
"You drunk?" The girl snapped at him noticing how his speech seemed to drag.
"I'm noooot. We just had a couple of drink before getting in the car. Doesn't mean we're drunk." He laughed again.
"STOP THE CAR!" Alexandra screamed. The others just laughed.
"The fuck , Alex!" Suzuna countuned laughing.
"I SAID STOP THE DAMN CAR!" The other girl yelled again and the car suddenly stopped.
"GET OUT!" Tomoki yelled and Alexandra shot out the very second. The car took of immediately,
Alexandra just stood there in the dark all wet from the strong rain. Het long blonde hair was already a mess. She walked over to the side walk and looked around for a shelter but there was none. And she was already to far from home to walk back. It was all great. And on top of that she'd left her umbrella back. Joy.
Just before she was about to burst into tears she saw a car pull up next to her. And the driver was … Gaou. Alexandra just hurried over to the passenger seat and got in the car. As she closed the door the car took off.
"Thanks for stopping." She said shivering from the cold.
"What were you doing here? I barely saw you." Gaou said not taking his eyes off the road.
"Those jerks kicked me out of the car cause Tomoki was drunk driving and it didn't seem fun to me." Alexandra answered. "And you? Why are you out so late?"
"Football practice." He said.
"Pretty late practice. You were playing American football, right?"
Gaou nodded.
"You are a lineman, correct?" She continued asking.
Gaou looked at her amused. She didn't seem like a person who'd know stuff like that. She didn't seem like anything he really knew.
It was close to a miracle that he saw her on his way from practice. Not only that but that she wasn't scared… but curious.
"What's funny?" She asked as he smirked.
"Nothing." He said and pulled up in front of a house.
"Where are we?" Alexandra asked.
"My place. We have a spare room here. I can't drive in this rain so you'll have to stay here." Gaou said getting out of the car. Alexandra followed and ran towards the door.
"Well look who's surprisingly gentle." She commented.
"I only respect strength. Gentle… impossible." Gaou said looking at her with wild eyes.
"As you say…" Alexandra said and made her way inside. She took of her shoos and followed the huge boy to his room.
Soon enough she was wrapped in a few blankets on the floor and looking at Gaou who sat right across her staring at a fixed point away from her.
"Why'd you stop for me? You're always so fearsome and … you're just like a wild beast." The girl said.
"I am." He answered. "I want to fight and find a person who'll match me in strength. Weak people are boring."
"You didn't answer my question… But still. I thought you found a person like that. Wasn't that Kurita person from Deimon a good match?"
Gaou suddenly shifted and looks right at her.
"You're an interesting one".
"Don't be so surprised. I come to some of the matches. I was even at the one where Kurita kind of kicked your ass and sent you skyhigh?" Alexandra laughed.
Gaou looked pretty amused at her. That woman sure was not stupid. He would never understand why she was hanging out with such spermless lowlifes.
"He graduated. I've got to find a new opponent now."
Alexandra yawned a little and looks away. She was still hurt by her friends. If you could even call those jerks friends.
"Alexandra." She heard Gaou call out her name.
"The name is Sasha. I hate being called Alexandra." She said.
"What else do you hate?"
"Lowlifes as those who call themselves your friends and leave you whenever you're not convenient to them." She said and looked at Gaou.
"You know… call me crazy. But I'll say it since I guess we won't be in a situation like this soon. I like you."…
To be continued.
This chapter was not football related because I needed something to start the plot with. Everything else to follow will be weird romance and lot's of American football xDDDDD
