"Ugh I hate school nights." A hand then raised and hits snooze alarm clock. The owner of said hand looked to be 18-19, black hair with bangs covering his forehead and green eyes. This man gets up and goes to grab a school uniform.
"Can't wait for another day of boring lectures for the week!" The young mane says to himself sarcastically. Then a knock come from the door.
"Adam shut up and take a goddamn shower already." A voice on the other side of the door says. Adam now sighs as he grabs a towel and heads to shower.
"Morning Aaron and thank you for being oh so considerate."
"Oh suck a dick Adam if it weren't for me you probably would have gone back to bed." Aaron retorts back at Adam causing Adam to get irritated, but sucked it up and took a shower.
Time skip to 8:45
A wave of students enter into a classroom with diagrams of the human body on 2 walls while the another had a whiteboard and the final wall was the blank entrance. Each student then goes to their respective seats ready for the day.
"Good morning everyone my name is Mrs. Hinkle and we'll be picking up where we last left off. So can anyone tell me where we were last time? Anyone?" The class stays silent as everyone is still tired. "Adam perhaps can tell us where we left off." Adam takes sighs.
"We last left of of Hepatitis and other blood borne pathogens." Adam recounts. Mrs Hinkle claps for Adam and smiles.
"That's right now who here can tell me which strains of hepatitis can be prevented with a vaccination?" Again the class was silent. "Wow you all are a bunch of social animals. So Adam can you answer the question?" Again Adam sighs.
"The answer would be Hepatitis A and Hepatitis B." Receiving a round of applause from Mrs. Hinkle. This goes on for the entire class period as everyone took notes about blood borne pathogens prepping for an upcoming test.
Time skip to 12:51 P.M.
Adam is carrying a lunchbox and walks around the campus looking for Aaron. Eventually the two meet up and have a seat at a table in the cafeteria.
"So how's medical pal?"
"Same as usual I'm the only one who talks since I the teacher's favorite. It honestly gets annoying how much the teacher favors me because of the fire I had when I first came here." Adam admits though this time rather than with a tired or sarcastic tone it was rather sad.
"So I take it you have no friends?" This earned Aaron a scornful look from Adam as he takes a bite out of a sandwich. "Sorry I forget just how much that means to you." Adam let's out a long sigh.
"It's not your fault it's mine. If only I actually talked to people more when I was in high school I probably could be a charismatic machine but look at me." Adam say while stretching his arms out. "I can't talk to anyone and everyone just views me as a teacher's pet." Adam says so full of sorrow.
"Hey I got an idea why don't we go to a pub I found a week ago. You can drink and I'll be their for you." Adam sighs and nods. Unbeknownst to Aaron Adam was easing his hand to attempt to pat him on the head but Adam decides against it.
"We should probably finish eating that way we can head to this pub after we finish classes today!" Adam says with determination to get to this pub.
"That's the spirit my pal." Aaron says feel a little more happy that his roommate is starting to open up to him more.
Time skip to 4:56 P.M.
Adam and Aaron were driving to this pub that Aaron with Aaron, obviously, driving. As they drive they find this pub and it happens to be called "The Eagle and Barrel" with the promotion being an eagle carrying a gun.
"Now that's gotta be the most American thing I've seen." Adam bluntly states getting a chuckle from Aaron.
"Yeah it is pretty American when it comes to advertising but full on Irish when it comes to alcohol now let's go." Aaron says as he parks the car. The 2 gentlemen leave their car as they head into this pub.
"Well hello there gentlemen what can I do for you 2?" A nice looking bartenders asks.
"Yeah can I get a Margarita and this young gentlemen is having his first drink so I'll let him decide." Aaron tells the bartender. He nods and grabs a glass as well as a menu and passes the menu to Adam. While Adam looks over the menu the bartender fills up Aaron's glass and places it on the bar rail.
"I think I'll have the Bourbon." Adam says but the bartender now getting a good look at him realized something.
"May I see some ID's from the two of you?" The bartenders asks though the reason was obvious. He wanted to know the age of Adam.
"Sure here's my ID and you can give him yours." Aaron hands him his driver's license which states Aaron is 26. Soon after Adam gives the bartender a CPR card and the date of birth shows he is 22.
"Thank you now please wait a moment." The bartender process to get a glass for Adam and fills it up then handing it over to him. "If there's anything else I can do for you two let me know." Soon after another person at the end of the bar rail asks for a double.
"Why'd he ask for our ID's?"
"Because of your baby face you look like someone in their late teens!" Aaron says with a hint of jealousy.
"Well let's get smashed tonight!"
2 hours later
"-And now I'm broke!" Adam tells Aaron thus being an indication of intoxication.
"So what did you experience in high school Adam?"
"Oh it was the worst! First of all do you know how stressful it is to always be compared to your older brother and not even in the good king of way I meant being viewed as basically a shadow you your brother! Like it'll be a normal day and you walk up to mom and be like 'Hey mom I just got an 82 in an algebra test.' Then she says 'Well your brother got a 96.' That pisses me off!"
"That sounds rough." Aaron says in an attempt to calm Adam down.
"I know but that ain't the end of it oh no! Because my brother didn't talk to anyone and always got A's I though because I was to busy talking with friends rather than getting my work done so I just cut all ties to my friends in a foolish attempt to do better grade wise. BUT THAT DIDN'T DO SHIT! So now I can't get straight A's and I can't talk to people." Adam goes on and on now with tears about how much he just wanted to be told good job without it also being a compliment to his brother.
"Ok that was something. I'm sorry for everything Adam. Now Adam you know you always got me so if you ever feel lonely just don't be afraid to tell me." Aaron says while wrapping an arm around Adam to comfort him.
"You know Aaron even though I yell at you from time to time you're a cool dude." Adam sighs with sadness looking back on his life. "I just wish I could get a second chance at life and be more like you Aaron. Someone who is kind and considerate while also knowing when to be stern."
"Thanks Adam but let's take a walk around and then we can head back to the dorm. You know to look clear our heads." Adam nods to this suggestion and gets up while pulling out his wallet.
"Bartender I'll be leaving now can I have the receipt?" Adam skis but the bartenders looks at Aaron and notices Aaron is considerably more sober than Adam.
"Yeah I'll pay for this one buddy. Next time though you'll be paying." Aaron says putting on a smile.
"You win this round sir alright hurry up already damnit!" Aaron keeps smile then pays for the drinks and the two walk out and as they cross the road Adam slips on some ice. "Fucking shit!" This earned a chuckle from Aaron at Adam stumbling.
The two are walking out of the pub and heading south in which they will be looking at a lake. At this lake there were many beautiful sights such as swans swimming, a setting sun over the lake, and that's about it. While Aaron suggests bird watching Adam says to go swimming with the swans as he is still intoxicated. Needless to say the final few hours before nightfall were great for the two and deepened their bond significantly as Aaron kept taking photos.
On the way back to "The Eagle and Barrel" they decide to take a shortcut through an alleyway. Unfortunately there were someone there that pulled out a knife.
"Give us your money or else you're gonna get it!" A mugger who is wearing a green coat says. Aaron is about to talk but Adam cuts him off by put his hand into his jacket to grab something. Adam soon pulls out some pennies and handed it to the mugger. "WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS SHIT!"
"I'm a college student what did you expect?"
"What my friend meant to say was-"
Aaron gets cut off as the mugger stabs Adam out of frustration. Then the mugger grabs Adam and throws him to the street. "Ok I had enough give you your money or else I'll kill you!" Unbeknownst to everyone a truck was coming and saw Adam on the road, so they hit the breaks as hard as they could. Unfortunately the frosted piece of road didn't allow for the truck to stop in front of Adam instead running him over.
"Shit! I need to get out of here!" The mugger runs as fast as he can in the opposite direction. Aaron runs to the accident while pulling out his phone intending to call 911.
"Adam you ok!?" Adam lies on the road now with broken ribs and a stab wound causing excessive bleeding.
"911 what's your emergency?"
"My friend just got into an accident we are on 1331 gunbarrel road."
"Alright an ambulance has is being sent to your location right now." As they say this the truck drivers comes by and notices Adam.
"Dear God! I'm sorry young man, I tried to stop. I am so sorry!" Adam now has a small pool of blood around him.
"Aaron, it... hurts." Aaron, now in tears, holds Adam's hand.
"Please hold on Adam an ambulance is coming." Adam then slowly starts to close his eyes. "Don't die on me! Not after I just got know more about you!"
"I'm sorry Aaron. I can't... do that. Please let me... not look at you... when I die. So that... I can't see... the sadness in your eyes." Adam somberly requests with tears. 'If I can live a second live then please let me, be like you Aaron. I love you my friend. I truly do.' Adam's last thoughts before he gives a deep exhale with no inhale.
"No Adam! Adam please! Don't do this to me! Please Adam I just want you to be happy!" No response. "ADAM!" A hand in placed on the shoulder of Aaron.
"He's gone. I am truly sorry for your lose. I promise to repay you, just tell me how much the funeral will cost." The elderly truck driver stats so full of guilt and sorrow over separating 2 friends from one another.
Alright so that was chapter one and I know I didn't really get into the DxD universe yet and that is because I wanted to establish what the OC was like before he reincarnated. Also I'll be attempting romance. Though this is my first time so no harem only single paring and before anyone gets worried I promise it won't come out of nowhere. I will try to have build up and chemistry between the love interest and the OC. Finally can I get some name suggestions for the person Adam will be reincarnated as because I have one in mind but I'm not sure. The time period will be like 2-3 weeks, a month at most because I don't expect this book to be popular immediately and as swear to not abandon this story. Also I will have inconsistent upload schedules because sometimes school is generous sometimes it ain't like most of this years I got tests everywhere and a PSAT so yeah sorry if I don't end up publishing new chapters when you want.
