Sup you guys, hope you enjoyed that last chapter! Hope you like this one too!
I groaned, knowing I would most likely stare at Jade the whole time. Why was I acting like this? It's just, so out of place for me. Random girls would line down the block to even look at me, why would I, Dave Strider, be so hung up on her? I mean you could tell from her glasses and little Atom symbol that she is nothing but a nerd. This is going to be not good, not good at all.
I sat down next to Dirk. As he chatted with Roxy, and his crush, Jake, I scanned the room for John and his sister. I was sort of relieved that my eyes where stranger than most, I mean, no one would ake fun of me, and no one could tell what I was feeling. As I searched the room, I found her in line with Nepeta, a small, joyous, ecstatic, loving cat girl, who was pretty sweet and hella kind. Nepeta was one of my best bro's, not that we hung out very often anyway. I quickly sat up and got behind them.
"Hey there, Dave!" Nepeta greeted in her cute voice.
"Sup, how've ya been" I asked her, she seemed pretty happy to talk to me.
"I'm doing fine! I've just been furry frustrated that Equius won't let me join the blue team with Karkitty" she was head over heels in love with Karkat and cat puns. She loved Karkat since they first met in 3rd grade, but was quickly shot down when she saw him kiss her in the 6th grade. She refuses to give up on him though, which is actually kind of sweet.
"Have mew met Jade yet?" she asked, interrupting my deep thoughts of the past. man things have changed...
"No, I think I've seen her around a couple times." I told the small girl as I turned to face Jade, I could feel my face quickly heat up. "Hey, I'm Dave, I met your brother John last period. Nice to meet you." I held out my hand nervously for hand shake, hoping nervously she would take it. She did.
"Hi'a Dave! I'm Jade Harley! It's nice to meet you, and I do think have a couple classes together, I'm glad to be seein you around!" she finished off with a dorky smile that made my heart go crazy. I quickly pulled myself together.
"So hey, did you guys want to sit with me and my buds over there?" I pointed to our table, Roxy was asleep, Rose reading a book on wizards, and Dirk flirted with Jake, as usual. Wait.. did I just say "buds"? What the hell is wrong with me? This girl is turning me into a fucking mess.
"Sure! My brother John will most likely want to sit with us too, if that's okay" she finished off with a small, light giggle. I swore to god my heart was going to rip out of my chest.
"I can't, Equius would get mad at me.." she told me in disappointment, twirling her short, caramel colored hair.
"It's alright Nepeta, maybe next time!" I told her, reassuringly as I rubbed her head. She smiled brightly. "And sure thing Jade, he told me he was plaining on sitting with us anyway, so sure thing." the conversation ended with got our lunch and went back to my table and got seated. Dirk quickly looked at me, he smirked. I know that smirk... it was the smirk of, "ohhh little bro got himself a little girlfriend" smirk. I quickly gave him the, "it's not like that, fuck off" look. He responded.
"So, Dave. Mind introducing me to your little lady over here?" damn him.
"This is Jade, her brother, John, should be sitting with us soon enough" giving the emphasis on "brother" should have gave him hint on "oh shit, not a date". But clearly, he decided that the emphasis should go unnoticed. God he pisses me off sometimes.
Roxy, quickly waking from her drunken nap, introduced herself and made a conversation with Jade about plushies and other as such. Everything continued, then John finally showed up. He apparently got lost trying to find the cafeteria. Him and I made some decent conversation. Thank god that is done, and over with...
I went straight back to my class room and stayed there until the teacher got back. When she got back, I went straight to the bathroom to avoid bring lectures that she would torture me with. After waiting a certain amount of time, I headed back tot he class. The rest of the lecture I basically dozed off. Something wasn't exactly right though. I felt someone staring at me...
With one I open I looked around and saw Jade was glancing at me from time to time. My face rushed with a heat of red. I quickly pulled it back and got a hold of myself before she can truly notice my blush.
I knew, some how, that these years may be the best years of my life...
Hey you guys! I'm sorry it took so long, I've had a bunch of rehearsals, but that's okay, because I'm back and better as ever. Hope you guys enjoyed this chapter!
