Chapter 2
Let's just say that a sleep deprived Summer isn't a happy one. I had issues going back to sleep, and nobody could blame me. All I could picture was that AMAZING man whom I didn't even know, but hell I didn't care. He was hot.
So I basically stumbled around, bouncing form wall to wall (quite literally) trying to get ready, which was sorta difficult when you're a wuss and had a hard time dealing with pain. By the time I got to school I was already five minutes later than normal, and I could feel my phone buzzing in my pocket. I adjusted my beret on my head. I yanked open the door and pulled my phone out all while trying to not fall onto my ass. I really hated it.
"Gah! Three messages? Damnit I'm running out of-" Suddenly I walked right into someone. Now me being me is I'm very polite. I don't like upsetting people so I freak out when I do "Oh my god I'm so sorry! Are you okay? I didn't mean to-" I froze when I saw exactly WHAT I ran into. Tall, about as tall as Kevin who was 6'1" or so...black spiky hair with a strand in front and…
Crystal blue eyes…just like the guy in my dream. He gave me a huge grin, one that makes you feel weak inside
Only I didn't feel weak. All I thought was that he had some pretty damn shiny teeth
"No problem. Be careful" I gave a nod and quickly hurried off. I hated being clumsy. I felt as though everyone had seen what I did and I was gonna be laughed at so I hurried to get away from my little bump attack. I glanced behind me and quickly looked back when I saw the guy was watching me…that was just a little creepy
"FINALLY! WHY WEREN'T YOU ANSWERING?" I jumped at Marie yelling jokingly at me
"I'm sorry! I was about to but…I kinda ran into someone" Minerva glared
"You still should've answered…"
"No like, I literally ran into someone. That guy down there. The tall one"
"…they all look small" Minerva stated
"Whatever just know I ran into someone…don't laugh either it was embarrassing" Of course Karen was snickering
"Only you would" I frowned and fiddled with my shirt. It was a loose shirt so I had tied it up in the back.
"Anyone would it's just unlike them I tell people openly that I do" I muttered.
"But then you just get embarrassed more!" Minerva pointed out
"I like being honest!" I stated "It's better than ly-"
"Excuse me?" I'm jumpy. Did I forget to mention I'm jumpy? The voice out of nowhere scared the crap outta me and I screamed, only to quickly slap my hand over my mouth. Karen, Marie and Minerva were laughing really hard and I could feel my face reddening. I finally turned around
"Sorry about that! What is…" I paused to see the same blue eyes I saw earlier, more like the exact same person. He had that same grin on his face "…Hi."
"Remember me?" He said with a laugh "You ran into me earlier" Okay today wasn't starting out nicely at all. One embarrassment after another
"Yeah. I'm really sorry about that" I said giving a nervous laugh "I didn't hurt you did I?"
"She's a ditz" I glared at Karen
"I am not! Clumsy is what it is! Clumsy!" Karen had a huge grin on her face and I knew where it would be going if he didn't hurry away from here
"Trust me, I'm fine. It takes more than a bump to knock me down. Anyway I think you dropped this" He held out his hand and in it was my necklace. My hand shot up to my neck and I found that indeed my necklace was not on it
"…how the hell-ACK I'm sorry!" I cussed automatically. I used to be the kid who never did and now I had a hard time just stopping. He chuckled while placing it in my hand
"It's fine. Well I'll be seeing you around Summer" He said with a wave…and wink. I watched him walk off and worked on getting my necklace back on
"Who was that?" I looked to Marie who had a somewhat devilish look on her face. Uh oh…
"You guys seemed chummy" Karen said, with the same look.
"…honestly I have no idea" I said laughing.
"Then how did he know you?" I raised an eyebrow
"Um he's the guy I ran into earlier…so he knew it was me. I doubt anyone else did…" Minerva sighed
"No…I really mean how? He knew your name" I think time stopped for a second while my brain worked to analyze this information I was just given.
"…WHAT THE FUCK? BUT! BUT HOW? I DON'T KNOW HIM! I JUST RAN INTO HIM…WHAT THE FUCK?" I was completely flipping out while they were laughing at me
"You seriously didn't notice he said your name?" Minerva said rubbing her forehead
"No! I didn't hear that at all! I mean I did but I didn't think twice about it!" The bell rang then while my head was still spinning. I had no clue who he was…yet he knew me. How was that even possible? I know my name spread because…well I'm a dork but still. I wandered down the hall in a daze, thinking about the guy and of course my dream. "Gotta tell Minerva and Riya" I muttered to myself. This was a very weird day
And something in my gut said it was going to get weirder
Lunch finally came, and luckily I got to be with just Riya and Minerva for once during it while the rain was pouring outside in buckets.
"So refresh me. What happens?" Riya asked. I took a bite of my PB&J.
"Okay…let's see…" I leaned back in the crappy plastic chairs of the cafeteria, commons...whatever the hell it was. "I open my eyes and its all white…I looked around me and there isn't anything there…ever. It's just perfectly white. Then suddenly there's a voice who talks to me."
"Hot sounding?" Riya interrupted. I glared at her
"DON'T MESS WITH MY FLOW! And yes, it does sound hot, but continuing" Riya laughed as Minerva sighed "The voice talks, and I can't make it out. Then a figure appears in front of me…" I glanced to the ceiling. "It's a male…he has blonde spiky hair…pretty nice build…and he's mostly in black. He keeps talking to me and as he gets closer…I see his eyes. And they are the most crystal blue eyes I've ever seen. They almost glow while he talks. And finally he's standing so close I can touch him. And I can tell he's well toned"
"Sounds like the perfect hot guy there…" Minerva said smirking
"He is pretty damn hot. But then he tells me 'I finally see you up close…' and when I ask what he means, it's like he doesn't hear me…he just keeps talking. Oh and his face looks emotionless too."
"What else does he say?" Minerva, and ironically Riya asked at the same time
"…he says 'I'll see you soon…' And turns to walk away…and before I wake up he says the same thing each time…'You'll soon understand'" They were quiet
"…you have one insane memory…"
"HE'S FUCKING HOT" I exclaimed to Minerva "And I've had it for like, nine days straight now. How could I forget it?"
"...most people forget their dreams though" Riya stated
"I'm starting to think it's an omen…it's weird but I feel like I do know this guy, and that I'll know him when I see him…is that odd?"
"Your odd in general Summer"
"…meanie" I muttered
"It's a good odd" Minerva said with a nod "But I wonder why he seems real…and why that guy knew you this morning"
"What guy?" Riya asked, her eyes giving off an intrigued look
"I ran into someone this morning, and somehow he knew my name. I've only ever seen him today…but he was hot"
"Oh Summer…" Minerva said shaking her head
"What? You saw him!"
"…Okay he was" She said reluctantly. It felt good knowing even Minerva of all people couldn't deny it. Riya was questioning what he looked like, and I tried to get Minerva to explain it but she didn't want too…as usual.
"OKAY! So let's see…he had on blue jeans, a gray shirt with black sleeves. It was a t-shirt and it was one of those baggy yet showed figure deals" She gave a little nod, so I continued "His hair was black and spiky…with one strand hanging out in the front which is bugging me I mean it's one strand-OKAY BACK TO THE TOPIC" I hated being easily distracted "And he was about 6 feet tall..maybe a little more or a little less…I'm not good at judging heights…and he too had those crystal blue eyes, like the guy in my dream"
"And he was hot?"
"Riya I told you earlier he was, and Minerva of all people agreed" Riya looked a little frightened
"I didn't say anything" I stared at her.
"…Minerva did you-"
"Nope"
"THEN WHAT THE?"
"I did" I registered where the voice was coming from and spun around in my chair to the exact same guy I had literally JUST described. There seemed to be a long moment of silence before there was a loud scream
Namely mine
"WHAT THE FUCK! ARE YOU FOLLOWING ME?" Was the first thing that shot out from my mouth. He had a grin on his face that clearly showed he was amused. I wasn't paying attention to Minerva or Riya, but I heard Riya cracking up besides me and I'm pretty sure Minerva was shaking her head.
"Since I was curious about this hot guy. Go on about my eyes will you?" I felt my whole face redden
"Eavesdropping is NOT cool" Seriously that was the best I could think of! I SUCK at comebacks! He raised his eyebrow
"Oh? You sure bout that? How about you describe my eyes" He said leaning down. I really wish I knew how to punch and NOT get in trouble for doing so.
"…blue" I stated simply
"Not crystal like?"
"Nope" He still had that grin on and leaned closer
"You sure?" Of course I was lying. Hell they were like the sky on clear days and I felt like my soul was being ripped out while he stared. I also wanted to get him out of my bubble.
"I'm. Sure." I said, kinda coldly by accident. He let out a low whistle
"You got an attitude don't you?"
"Only when I'm annoyed…" I muttered, grabbing a strawberry and yanking the leaves off
"Oh well. I just wanted to hear what you had to say about me Summer" He said with a wink. I blinked and frowned
"How do you know my name…?" He smiled
"You'll find out later" He walked off and I watched
"…was that him?"
"…yes…"
"…Total flirt" Riya said reaching for her soda.
"You think?" Riya gave me one of her are-you-seriously-asking-me-this looks.
"Um…Summer…he was practically asking you do compliment him more and getting in you bubble" Minerva said poking at her food
"…wait that was flirting?" I think I nearly got slapped
"SUMMER HOW DENSE ARE YOU!" Minerva demanded
"A lot?"
"…oh Summer…so sheltered" Riya said laughing. While they were laughing I glanced behind me. I saw the guy talking to a woman in the office. One I'd never seen before. She had long black hair and clearly had boobs she would show off. Little black gloves that had a thumb and the four fingers in one hold on, and a skirt with a white tank top. I had to admit she was pretty. Then I saw a sight I wasn't about to forget. Another guy came up beside Mr. Flirt. He had spiky hair as well, but what I wasn't paying too much attention
I did however notice he looked exactly like the guy from my dream. Exactly.
"Summy…" How could it be possible? The guy from my dream was real! He was honest to god real! He looked exactly like him, well minus the whole what he was wearing
"Summy?" He had the same hair, the same build, even down to the cheek. It was perfect
"Summer" And those eyes…oh I could just get lost watching them. Even at a distance they would glow
"SUMMER"
"WHAT? I'M THINKING-" I saw Brian eyeing me and my voice fell "here…hiii" I said nervously
"Your spacing out again"
"Was not" I said
"You haven't done any of the notes in the past ten minutes…" I was quiet
"…okay maybe a little" I said glancing at the huge textbook before me
"About what?" Kevin inquired
"A dream about monsters coming and invading earth and me having to save Pikachu" Yes. That was the first thing out of my mouth. As if that wasn't bad enough, it was worse that they both believed me. But it was better than telling two of my closest guy friends that I kept thinking about a super hot guy who talked to me in my dreams and was actually real. Now THAT would be odd.
I spent the rest of Geometry telling Brian to calm down, thanking Brie for helping doing the notes and homework, and telling Kevin to work. Of course telling Brian and Kevin that is like telling me to not love cute things, and lemme tell you that was impossible. Every chance I had in which I could space out, even for a second I would think to the mystery man. He seemed so cold…yet so perfect when I saw him. And he was actually real. I wondered if he had the same dreams I had had…if so, did that mean he was wondering what I was wondering?
The second I saw it was nearly 2:45 I shoved things in my bag as if it was Friday. Reality was that it was Wednesday, but I had to talk to Minerva about it more. When I told her I saw him, he was gone along with Mr. Flirt and Ms. Boobies. She didn't believe me but knew I wasn't being completely crazy. When I was crazy I started seeing people in lights (Don't ask)
I paced around in the corner after Brian gave me a hug. Damnit Minerva needed to hurry…screw waiting for Gon, I NEEDED to talk to Minerva.
"Hey Summer"
"Hey Gon" I said giving him a hug "WHERE'S MINERVA?" I demanded right afterwards
"She had to go to the bathroom…why?"
"Argh! Her dumb bladder! I need to talk to her!" Gon raised his eyebrow
"Okay then…is it anything bad?" I sighed
"No…it's mostly a guy I kept seeing in my dreams is actually real because I saw him today but-MINERVA THANK GOD" I saw her out of the corner of my eye
"Slow down. And let's hurry. Marie says you and I will like what's at the commons" I let out a huh but ignored it, and instead of getting to talk to Minerva like I wanted Gon talked the whole time. I think he knew that was the worst thing you could do to me at the moment. We approached the commons and I saw Marie spot us right away. She quickly hurried over
"You guys could not be any slower!"
"Sorry it's Minerva's bladders fault now can I PLEASE talk?"
"Not yet!" She moved aside from blocking our vision "Look at who Will and Dimitri are talking to" I glanced and my mouth fell open. Not so much at them talking and it looked intelligent but more of…
"…them?" I squeaked. Ms. Boobies, Mr. Flirt and mystery man were right there
