A/N: This chapter ended up being really long as I wrote it so I spit it in two. Here's the first part.
Len P.O.V.
Everyone's talking about the new girl. How could you not? Coming in the middle of first quarter is somewhat normal but some say she used to live here. Would someone really want to come back here? I've lived here for 13 years and went to this school for 9 years. I wouldn't dare come back. Thank God that I'm going to highschool next year. I can finally get out of this school.
Well anyways, Luka and Miku volunteered to go retrieve her from the office while the whole class mumbles in excitement. I'm just sitting there, my hand on my chin, staring off into space. Until my best friend came over and disturbed my zone out.
"Yo! Lennykins! Wake up!" he said while waving his hand in front of my face. I scowled into his turquoise eyes as he messed with my blond hair. "That's better," he snickered.
"What do you want Mikuo?" I asked in annoyance. He tilted his head a little and made a pathetic puppy face, pushing his lips together and making his eyes big.
"Is someone in a cranky mood?" he pouted. Mikou crossed his arms making him look more serious in a way. I rolled my eyes. "Ok lemme guess." He returned to his normal face and slammed his hands onto my desk. "You were thinking of the not-so-new girl right?" Mikuo smiled deviously. I shot him a death glare.
"The hell? No!" Somehow my face got a little pink. Of course it did. I can't deal with girls. Yet, believe it or not, two of my best friends are actually girls, Miku and Luka. And I'm not embarrassed when hanging with them. Maybe because we've been friends since kindergarden (except Mikuo who's been there since pre-school) and they accept me for me and not my stunning looks. With my naturally shaggy blond hair tied in a small high ponytail and crystal blue eyes I guess I attrack more girls than Mikuo who always doesn't get why I don't accept the girls who fangirl over me. But I guess he thinks I'll fanboy over this "not-so-new girl."
"You're blushing dude! You were totally thinking of her!" He pointed directly at me, arm stretched out and a wide satisfying smile. My face got even more red.
"Damn Mikuo, keep it down," I shush him. I lean in closer to him and motioned him to lean in more. It looked like I was going to tell him a secret but I was far from that. As he leaned closer to me, I quickly slapped his check. We both stare at each other intensely until we hear the girls come in. All heads turn towards the door as they enter the classroom. I count to myself to pass the time as it seemed that it took hours for them to walk in.
1... 2... Where's the 3rd? Where's the new girl everyone's been talking about? Everyone moves their heads about as they search for the missing student. Miku and Luka walk over to the teacher and mumble something to him. He nodded and exited the room. Students gather around the retrievers and question them intensely with "Who is she?" or "What does she look like?" They shrug it off and approach Mikuo and me with smiling faces.
"You are going to LOVE her~!" cheered Miku. Mikuo and I look at each other in confusion. Love? But Luka quickly added to Miku's cheery remark.
"She means you guys would definitely like her. As a friend of course." Both continue grinning uncontrollable as the door reopens, the teacher entering and stops in front of the classroom. Everyone sat down quickly, Luka and Miku sitting in front of me and Mikuo leaving a space between them for the new girl.
"Now students. I would like you to treat our new student with respect and help her with anything new," he announces. We all gave the "I really don't care" nod as he motioned for the new girl to come in. All eyes darted right at the door wide and alert. Slowly she walked in and my heart beats extremely fast as I wait to see who this new girl happens to be.
