Violet's P.O.V
Buzz! ...Buzz! ...BANG! I turned over and lazily got up. I walked over to my dresser to put my contacts in.
"DAMN!" I didn't have anymore. Great I'm going to have to wear my glasses. I finished getting ready. I looked at my self in the mirror. I wore my hair in a messy bun with blue dyed parts; I looked down to my face. I had black eye liner on to bring out my green hazel eyes and I was wearing my thick rectangular glasses. (Not the nerdy ones) Ok now for my clothes; I was wearing a fitted thick strapped tank top with blue lancing up the front, I was also wearing a school girl plaid black and blue skirt, with mid-thigh black and white striped socks and of course blue converse. When I agreed that I looked decent I headed down stairs. I reached the kitchen and I saw that Clarity was just finishing her breakfast. She was wearing a green blouse and a long brown skirt, her hair was pulled back into an up-do.
"Hey! Why are you wearing your glasses?" She ate her last bit of toast.
"Yeah. I used up all my contacts." I sat across form her.
"You look better with your glasses." She smiled putting her dish in the sink. I rolled my eyes and finished eating.
We were standing under an umbrella for it was raining as we waited for the bus. It finally came. I decided that I'm going to sit with Warren today instead of Gunie, who was yelling Zach's ear off. Clarity sat with Layla and I finally made my way to Warren.
"Hey Hothead. Miss me?" I sat next to him before he could say yes or no.
"What are you doing?" He looked ahead to see if anyone was looking.
"Sitting with my guy friend. Is that a problem?" I crossed my arms and legs up on the seat.
"Mmm. I'm your friend now? When did I agree to this?" He turned to look at me and smirked.
"You didn't ...That's the point." He snorted (not the pig snort more like the pfft one) and shook his head.
"Your one weird chick you know that." He went back to his book.
"Yea. But that's why we're friends." I put my mp3 head phones in and listened to music the rest of the way to school.
-----------------------------------AT SCHOOL---------------------------------------------------------------
I had my last class with Clarity before lunch. Clarity and I headed to the cafeteria and stood in line. She was in front of me and that Gwen chick was behind me. I felt a slight vibe in my pocket. I took out my cell it was a text from mom.
"Clarity, mom sent us a text." I lent closer to her so that my head was on her shoulder and my arm reached out in front of her to show her the message.
"Hey Girls I have great news! William and I are engaged! How wonderful eh! See you girls at home. Love you. Bye." I scoffed while Clarity sighed. I took the phone back, got out of the line and ran out the doors.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Clarity's P.O.V
I left the line to run after her. Oh great mom get married to a complete ass.
"Move!" Some tall, animal killing, leather lover was standing in front of me.
"I said move, are you hearing impaired?" I placed my hands on my hips getting annoyed.
"Why don't you make me? Pixie!" Warren looked from the corner of his eye to see a certain striped sleeved boy heading in the same direction Violet left in. Oh this guy is such an idiot!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I went outside since that was the last place I seen her come. She was sitting under the willow tree on the small wall thingy (A/N: You know the place Warren sits when Layla says him and her are going to the dance). She had her legs pulled up to her chest and her head on her knees. She was soaked. So was I but I didn't care about me at the moment. I walked over to her and sat down.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Violet's P.O.V
I felt that I wasn't alone and thought it was Clarity. She put her arm around me but I realized it wasn't her. Usually when she puts her arm around me, a calm feeling rushes over me but not this time. I knew it couldn't be Warren for two reasons. 1: He's nice but not this nice. 2: This person doesn't have that hot touch that feels like it can burn you but doesn't. But I didn't care at the moment I just lent in further and cried.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I snaked another arm around her hugging her till she stopped crying. I never thought I'd see her like this. Though I wished I could hold her like this. I felt her hug me back and nuzzle into me.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Violet's P.O.V
I nuzzled my mystery comforter and stopped crying. Whoever this person is they are very nice to comfort me. I opened my eyes to see black and white strips. Oh NO!
I wrenched back and looked in to Lash's dark brown eyes.
"What! Why?!" Lash looked confused.
"Why would you did you do that?"
"Do what?"
"Comfort me?"
"Oh that." He looked down but I could tell he blushed.
"Well you just looked like you needed someone is all." He shrugged.
"Oh. Well thank you." I was looking straight in front of me with me hands on my lap.
"No problem. Violet?"
"Yeah?" I didn't look at him.
"I was ...Oh never mind." He put his elbows on his knees and his head in his hands.
"No what you can ask?" I put my hand on his shoulder but still didn't look at him; instead I looked at my lap.
"Ok but don't get mad ok." I could tell he was looking at me.
"Umm ok?"
"I was ...Well only if you ...want ...wondering ...If maybe sometime...you and I ...ummm…" I looked at Lash with shock.
"Lash are you asking me out?" I half smiled.
"Yes." He sighed and put his head in his hands again.
"I know. It's stupid. I'll get it if you say…"
"Yes." He kept rambling.
"Lash I said yes." His head shot up.
"Really?"
"Yeah one question though?"
"Shoot."
"Why do you want to go out with me? I almost killed you!"
"That's kinda why I like you. No girl has ever done that!" I started laughing.
"And that's a turn on?"
"I guess." He laughed.
"I just noticed something." He lent closer to me and put his hand on my cheek. I stopped laughing.
"When you laugh your eye turn emerald green." I could feel myself blush.
"Really? Wow I never knew that!" I smiled.
"Well now you do." He smiled back. We stood up to head inside, out of the rain. Lash was holding my hand.
Then he stopped and turned to face me.
"What's ...?" I was cut off by Lash kissing me. Oh my God! He's kissing me. His lips are so soft. Oh damn it, respond! I kissed him back and put my hands on his chest while his hands were on each side of my face. He pulled back and just looked at me.
"Your eyes also turned emerald that time." He laughed and led me inside. We walked hand in hand to my locker.
"Ok so I'll come to pick you up Saturday at 8 k?" He leaned against the locker beside mine.
"Sounds great. Where you taking me if I may ask?" I got my books for Mad Science, and closed the locker.
"That's for me to know and for you to find out." He laughed, kissed me again and left.
I smiled on my way to Science.
"Hey! What's got you so happy?" Clarity ran up beside me.
"You'll find out soon." We kept walking and Gwen and that cheerleader girl were looking at us laughing. We walked by them.
"I here she's not a virgin." The cheer girl laughed. Clarity looked at me. I showed her I was fine.
"I hear she was jealous that he step dad A.K.A lover is marrying her mom." Gwen giggled. I kept walking.
SLAP...THUD! I turned around slowly to see the cheer girl freaking and Clarity standing over a crumpled Gwen on the floor.
"You never, ever talk about her like that, you hear me!" Clarity held a clenched fist. I noticed the lights flicker. She came over and grabbed my arm.
"Let's go!" I looked at her amazed.
"What's gotten you so mad?"
"Your leather bound guy friend." She hissed. I smiled just imaging what happened between Warren and my sister. But I could not stop thinking about my date with Lash.
------------------------------------After Mad Science----------------------------------------
Still Violet's P.O.V
Warren and I came out of the room and walked to the gym for Save the Citizen.
"I heard you pissed off my sister?" I smiled.
"Oh Pixie? You'd think she could never be related to you." He smirked at my reaction to her nickname.
"No wonder she was so mad." I laughed as we came to the gym doors. About half an hour passed and no one had beaten Lash and Speed yet.
"Lash, Speed. Heroes or Villains?" Boomer asked already knowing that answer.
"VILLIANS!" They yelled in unison.
"Pick your victims." He pointed over to the bleachers packed with students.
"The Perkis's " Speed yelled Lash just smiled and waved at me. I greeted him with the finger and we both burst out laughing.
"Reaper, Angel. Hit the floor." Boomer, well, boomed.
"You know the rules. Now go!" The clock started.
"You go for Speed, I'll go for Lash."
"Ok." I shrugged and Speed ran around me. I simply burned the floor and made it crack and break; he ended up falling through the floor. I looked over to see Clarity being thrown across the room. I started to run to her but Lash snaked his arms around me from across the room and pulled me to him.
"Hey beautiful." He whispered in my ear.
"It's not nice to throw your date's sister." I said flatly, struggling to get away.
"I'm sorry." I could tell he meant it.
"Oh, wait for me after school."
"Why?"
"So you can sit with me duh!" He laughed into my neck.
"LASH! Enough Lovey Dovey!" Boomer yelled out and all you could hear were ooo's and awww's.
"I'm sorry Lash and other students."
"Why?" Lash asked really confused. I burnt Lash. He howled and let go. I turned and backed Lash into the basketball net.
"Sorry again."
"For?" I grabbed Lash and tied him to the pole. And laughed. I then turned to face the blades the citizen was over. My eyes turned black and my hands were glowing black. (A/N: like Raven from Teen Titians) I sent that glowing black straight at it and it blew up, missing the citizen. Clarity was standing under the dummy. I broke the rope and we won.
I snapped out of it. And untied Lash who seemed impressed. He smiled and put his arm around me.
"Ok I'm gonna go get showered and changed. Meet me out here and we'll walk to the bus, k." I nodded. He kissed my forehead and called after Speed. I took a shower and got dressed and came out to see Lash was the one waiting for me.
"God girls do take long." He tried to sound seriously miserable but failed.
"What are you talking about? I'm the first girl and second person out here!" I walked to him. He laughed and took my hand. And we walked to the buses. We got outside and ran to the bus, when Lash and I got on together everyone was staring. I think Gunie was the only person other then Warren who didn't care. He led me to the back of the bus and we sat down. Zach turned to speak to me.
"Why are you dating Lash!?! Do you know what he's done to Ethan's poor head?" I looked at Lash who was acting innocent.
"And how many lockers has he shoved Ethan into? Ethan wasn't this ugly before!" I started to laugh because all you heard from the other side of the bus was HEY!
"Yeah Zach and I care why?"
"I'm your friend!" He crossed his arms.
"So I tried to kill him and he forgave me. So you can forgive him." Zach just look wide eyed and turned to leave me alone.
"I'm happy for you two." Gunie said then freaked at Zach who was about to give her the talk again. Warren told me to move for a sec. I got up and Warren took my seat.
"I have just one thing to say to you. If you break her heart... I'll roast you alive. Got it!?!" Lash nodded quickly and Warren left. I sat back down and laid my head on Lash's shoulder. I never thought mom would be right! I'm starting to like Sky high!
