Hi Guys... I know I made the story a bit direct, so let me tell you all about Luke, how Runo started avoiding boys and how she became popular on the first day of school, since when Dan met Runo and started liking her etc...

I am starting from Dan's POV, right now he is practically jobless so he is lying down on bed and thinking about all these mentioned on top. Bold font is narrator. Italic style is flashback.

I was basically jobless right now, Runo has gone shopping and she said it would take a while. It reminds me. She was new at school...

I was standing by my locker and I saw a blue haired girl coming towards me, she stood next to me and opened a locker next to mine, which was empty for a long time.

"What's your name?Are you new here kid?" I asked as I saw her clothing, she was having her long blue hair down, a yellow halter top and a white mini skirt.

"My name is Runo. Yes, I am a new girl here and don't call me a kid!" She answered. "I never thought Julie would be in this same college." She muttered to herself as she took out some books from her bag and put them in her locker in order.

"Julie? Oh. What bout' Her." I asked. She glared at me then, her glare softened a bit.

"Seriously, she gave me a total makeover! I hate drawing attention." She said and continued when she saw my confused look. " I was fine with a halter top and shorts and my hair pulled back, like normal girls, until Julie , the girl I met just a week ago, dragged me to her locker, more like a cupboard with clothes, bags, nail polish blah blah. She made me wear this skirt and she removed my hair band and let my hair down." She completed.

" That's Julie!" I said while chuckling.

" Whatever, she is a good friend though." She replied.

"Your first class will begin soon. KID!" I said.

" You are so annoying!" She said as she clenched her fist.

So yeah... This is how I met Runo. She is connected to a series of events, she didn't think boys were great though, ever since they started chasing her everywhere after Julie gave her a makeover. Then, came Luke...

Luke was a blonde with blue eyes. He was Runo's childhood friend. He started liking her since she grew up to be cute (which she is*blushes*). But she only thought of him as a brother. Luke never let anyone she didn't want near her, (practically brotherly love).

Luke kept pondering about what he should do, be a brother to Runo or be her boyfriend. Finally he couldn't take it anymore. He called Runo to a forest near the park, she went their as she trusted him. When she reached their, she saw him, he wore a red t-shirt with a black aviator's jacket and black jeans. She was shocked as Luke never cared about his looks. But today, she could see that he had groomed himself quite well.

"Luke, what is it?" Runo asked.

"Runo... I want to tell you something." He said as he beckoned her next to him. She went near him. He immediately grabbed her by her wrist and pushed her against a tree. Her vision was blurry.

"Luke, what-" she started.

"sorry, guess I got excited." Luke said as he released her wrist. Runo buyed it (mistake if you ask me!)

"Runo, will you be my girlfriend ?" Luke asked as a blush crept across his face. Runo looked like the world had been yanked from below her feet. She just stood there without moving.

"Runo, I am asking you this question, do you love me?" He asked as he caught Runo's wrist as tight as possible. Runo yelped as her wrist started to ache.

"Luke... I only thought of you as my brother, nothing more, nothing less." Runo said while years trickled down her cheeks. " I-I-" Runo stammered trying to explain herself. But Luke was mad. He just said, " There will be no one better than me." Luke said as he pushed Runo away and he walked away. Runo just stood their, tears on her cheeks. But she was not a person who will sit and cry. She had to move on. She walked away as if nothing happened. This incident with Luke increased her hatred for boys. (Great job Luke! That's why I took a while for her to be my girlfriend.)

The news about Luke and Runo spilled around college, Luke was in the last year of college and he graduated with no girlfriend. So he got of the hook. Everyone expected Runo to break down in tears or something, but whenever someone asked her about Luke, she acted as if she never cared.(which she didn't.)

That's pretty much what happened. Let me just say that I started liking her after the incident of Luke, she was different, I thought.

Runo was told to take one person according to the class list everyday, to allow her impartiality towards the inspection of cleanliness of each room. Me and Runo were in class A.

When it was my turn,I was amazed at her impartiality towards every class it includes our class too. When we reached class B and C, it was like a war. Both the classes were dirty and both the classes were debating, some were even throwing punches to each other.

Runo sighed and gave both the classes a 1 out of 5.

"Well at least the walls are clean."she said.

"Why are they fighting?" I asked.

"The trophy." She said while marking class D.

"What?!" I asked clearly confused.

"Our college had participated in the best drama contest. Class B made the plot and class C acted. We won and now both the classes want the trophy." She said as we finished marking all the classes and kept the scroll of marks in the principal's desk.

Yea... That's how I started to like her.

So here is my point. Don't mention anything about Luke, this is a very touchy subject for her, you will either get a slap across your face or deal with silent treatment for a week, or no kissing me treatment for a month.

Guess she is back.

So this is the end of this chapter.

Next chapter onwards normal POV will be published.
