~ Chapter 2: Friend or…..? ~

Alice's POV

After walking up the stairs I saw that my room was the 2nd one on the right. Taking a deep breath I slid open the door and immediately, I felt all eyes on me. Despite this I kept looking straight ahead and marched right up to seaweed head.

"Where do I sit?" I asked him.

"Well since you're late you get the seat in the back near the window—farthest away from me." he spat.

Feeling annoyed from what he just said, I walked to my seat ignoring the stares along the way.

Don't these people know any manners? Sheesh I walked in late, not kill someone!

Right as I sat down Seaweed head or Professor Gil as I might say, started a lecture on how you mustn't ever be late to class and blah, blah, blah. I tuned him out and just decided to stare out the window when all of a sudden I felt a tap on my shoulder. I ignored them because honestly, I didn't want to be bothered right now.

"Alice! Alice!" the voice whispered slash yelled.

I sighed and tried to ignore the voice that was calling my name.

Can't they read the atmosphere? I'm not really in the mood to talk.

"Alice! Come on Alice, answer me!" the voice pleaded.

Getting awfully irritated I whipped my head around and was about to yell at them for being so annoying when I saw that it was just Oz—yet again.

Glancing at Gil I saw that he was distracted by a student who was asking him a question. Taking this as my chance I twisted around and faced him.

"How do you know my name?" I hissed.

Oz started to explain, "Gil told me. Well not really, more like showed me. I looked on the class roster and there was a picture of you with your name written next to it."

"Ok…well what do you want then?" I asked.

"Oh...uh...well you see I'm new here so I was wondering if you wanted to sit together during lunch?" he asked whilst he scratched the back of his neck. Oz then looked at me and gave me this look that reminded me of a puppy. A sad puppy to be exact with big green eyes.

Awh, so cute. Wait what am I thinking?!

I blushed at the thought. My cheeks felt as if they were on fire.

This is just Oz. A person I just recently met. So yet, why am I blushing so damn much?

"Ugh, if I say yes will you stop bothering me?" I said as I was trying to stop myself from blushing. Before Oz could answer someone interrupted us.

"Am I disrupting you from something Ms. Baskerville?" Gil asked menacingly. He did not seem pleased.

"No not at all. Go ahead." I said in a sickly sweet voice. Putting my attention back on Gil I glanced down at the floor near my desk and saw that there was a note lying there. Assuming it was for me I picked it up. Unfolding the paper it read:

Meet me on the rooftop for lunch. I hope to see you there! :D

-Oz Vessalius

I quickly glanced back at Oz and he smiled that sparkly smile of his again.

Maybe I shouldn't have looked back at him.

Grimacing I turned back around and focused on getting through the lesson.

What have I gotten myself into?

~~Lunch~~

Oz's POV

There I stood on the rooftop waiting. Nervously I might add. For who exactly? A friend…if I could call her that.

What if she got lost? Or what if she doesn't show up? What am I going to do?

I started to sweat from worry.

Alice is going to come. Relax. She's a nice girl who's just misunderstood.

Walking back to where I sat, I hear the rooftop door open and I see Alice standing in the doorway blushing. I grinned feeling ecstatic that she came.

"Hey, Alice I'm over here!" I called out to her. I motioned her to come over to where I was.

"Don't worry I see you." She snapped. Huffing she walked over and plopped herself down.

A feisty one, I see. Just my type!

I sat down myself and began to eat my lunch. I sneaked a peak at her and needless to say I was taken aback a little. Instead of eating a salad like most girls I've been with, she was eating meat. Tons of it too. Instead of being disgusted I laughed. Noticing me, her eyes widened and she frowned and said "What are you laughing at?"

"Huh? Oh nothing Alice. It's just that. You look really cute when you eat like that actually…" I admitted. I chuckled and felt myself starting to blush.

What am I doing saying that she's cute? I just me her; She must think I'm a creep! I thought while I laughed some more.

"Huh…oh…thanks I guess." Alice replied. She continued eating like nothing happened. I sighed a sigh of relief. Guess she didn't take it the wrong way after all. I went back to eating as well and a few moments of silence passed between us. Just as I thought our whole lunch was going to pass by like this I heard her speak once again.

"So does this mean we're friends Oz?" she asked tentatively. Surprised I jumped a little. "I mean we are eating lunch together and everything."

I didn't expect that. This girl is full of surprises. I like that.

Swallowing my food I said "Well if you want us to be, then yes we are. But first we have to properly introduce ourselves to each other. Let's change that fact shall we?" I stood up and offered my hand to her. She looks at me like I'm crazy but she grabs it and stands up as well.

"I'll start first. Hello. My name is Oz Vessalius. I was born December 26th and my sign is Capricorn. My blood type is 'O' and I have a little sister named Ada. What's your name?" Honestly I felt kind of silly but in another way I felt calm and relaxed. Something about Alice just made me feel this way.

"This is stupid. I'm sitting back down." Alice stated. I laughed. It's just like her to do something say something like that.

"Come on Alice this will be good for us." I smiled.

"Ugh fine." She huffed before saying "My name is Alice Baskerville. I was born July 20th and my sign is Cancer. My blood type is also 'O' and I like to eat meat. There happy?"

"Hahahaha Alice. Yes, in fact I am." Just being with her made me smile.

Why is that anyway? Although we just met I feel like this isn't the first time.

"Oz, wait I don't think we're done! We have to make a pinky promise." She declared. "Isn't this how all friendships work? I mean you're my first friend so I just want to make sure."

I'm her very first friend…wow. I feel so responsible or something. And actually really happy too. A first friend is always the most important. I nodded my head.

" Well, come on hold out your hand and stick out your pinky. Don't worry I feel as ridiculous as you do." Alice looked at me expectantly. Guess I shouldn't keep her waiting. I stuck out my hand linked my pinky with hers.

"Um…I Oz Vessalius pinky promise to be best friends with Alice Baskerville…." I hesitated not knowing what to say.

Sighing Alice finished the rest for me.

"Forever and ever and if I don't withhold this promise I'll stick a needle in my eye." Shaking our pinkies on it we were done. Sitting back down we looked at the view in front of us.

"Well that was interesting…" I declared.

"Yeah it was." And for the first time since I've met her I saw her smile. It was wonderful. Her cheeks had a reddish tint to them and there dimples in her face when she smiled. Needless to say I wouldn't be breaking that promise very soon.

A/N

Well that was an unexpected turn of events. It's fluffy but originally I decided to have them explain their problems to each other but I decided not to because that wouldn't make sense since they just met. Anyway I hope you liked it! I'll try to put the next chapter up as soon as possible. Until the next A/N. Bye! :D
