Tardiness can be a GOOD Thing
Kairi sprinted down the halls of Garden High, already late to class. The halls were empty, echoing the pounding of her footsteps back to her. "Damn stupid daylight savings time." She muttered, turning a sharp corner.
Today had been the first day in her 16 years to ever have to change her clocks. And her family had forgotten to do it. Yeah, they remembered this morning, all right. Too bad she was already late.
Turning yet another corner she skidded to a stop in front of her locker. She typed in her six numbered password into the keypad on her locker and it beeped, the door slowly opening. She quickly unzipped her backpack and threw a couple of books from her first couple of class periods in it before zipping it back up and racing off to class. This said class was on the upper floor.
Before she could get anywhere, a blonde haired teen, probably about 17 or so, stepped in front of her. "Hey, Kairi! Whatcha doin'?" The guy asked smugly.
Kairi flipped her hair and smirked. "Cuttin' class again, Demyx?"
"Maybe." He replied flippantly. "What about you? I've never seen you late before."
"That's because I've never been late." She retorted. "So move."
"Ah, I don't really feel like it."
Kairi glared at him. "You're such a bastard."
"Don't I know it."
She scoffed, pushing past him. His swift arm caught her own and pulled her back. "Hey!"
"Don't I get a goodbye kiss?"
"Go to hell."
Demyx laughed. "Even hell wouldn't accept me!"
"You got that right." Kairi turned to leave again. "You better get to class before you get an after school."
"Screw detention. I'd only go if you were there."
Kairi faced him. "What is that supposed to mean?"
Demyx walked closer to her. "I want you."
"Oh, go screw yourself."
"How 'bout I screw you?"
She backhanded him. "Like I said, GO TO HELL!"
Demyx touched his cheek tenderly. "That hurt, Kai. You know I'm only playing."
Kairi smirked. "Yeah, I know." She stood on the tops of her toes so their eyes met. "And you know I'm only playing with you." With that comment, she gave him a quick peck on the cheek. "Now, I really have to get to class."
Maybe it had been a good thing she had forgotten to change her clock.
The End!
