I love writer's block : ^)

So I was thinking and I remembered that Kat, Garen, Lux, and Darius were all the kid's gym teachers, but Kat was friends with Riven, and then I was like wtf am I doing?

To fix that I'm just gonna make Lux one year older, and Kat, Garen, and Darius two years older, which makes all of them college students and alumni just "teaching" at the high school. Works, right? I think.

Chapter 12

Ekko blearily blinked his eyes, cringing as he heard his shrill alarm. He shifted slightly and glanced down, realizing that apparently sleepy Jinx thought that Ekko was a giant teddy bear.

"Jinx," he whispered. Bright pink eyes curiously looked up at him. "Hm?" Her mouth was stale from sleep and but she felt better than she had in months. Ekko gently pried the bluenette's spindly fingers from around his waist. "We have to get ready for school."

"Already?" Jinx complained. "I feel like I just fell asleep, I swear."

Ekko shrugged. "Sucks."

Jinx pouted and moved so that her face was an inch from his. "Will you say something nicer now, meanie?"

Ekko swallowed. "I think I'm hungry for breakfast."

Jinx moved away, giggling. "Scrambled eggs? I'm in the mood for them."

Ekko shrugged. "Sure, I'll ask mom. You go change while I go downstairs. I'll change later."

Jinx saluted him, "Yessir! Now get out so I can get dressed."

Rolling his eyes, Ekko shut the door behind him and made his way downstairs, sliding into a chair in the kitchen. "Hey mom," he greeted his mother. She smiled at him. "Hey sweetie, is Jinx up yet?"

"Yeah, she wants scrambled eggs, she said she's 'in the mood' for them," he quoted, slumping in his seat and nestling his face in his arms on the table. "Ugh, why does school start so early?"

"Because that's just the way it is," a familiar, bubbly voice sounded from the stairs. Ekko lifted his head slightly and squinted from his half-closed eyes. "Oh, Jinx, you're dressed?"

Jinx nodded, bouncing down the stairs. Her hair was free from her normal style of tight, twinning braids. Her blue locks drifted down to her knees, flying everywhere. She took a deep breath, grinning, "Ah, scrambled eggs!"

Ekko raised an eyebrow. "Jinx, comb your hair. You wouldn't want any of the eggs getting in that hair, would you?"

Jinx stuck her tongue out at him as she retreated back up the steps. "Fine, moomm,"

Ekko rolled his eyes and pushed his chair back, getting up from his seat and climbing up the stairs, knowing that Jinx's hair was very hard to tame. "Doll, do you need any help with that hair?"

Jinx poked her head out from his room. "Did you just call me doll?"

Ekko flushed. "Um, sorry..." He scratched his neck as he entered the room.

Jinx giggled, "It's kinda cute, cookie, and yes, I might need a little help."

Ekko caught the brush that the bluenette tossed to him. "Let's get this over with," he mumbled, glaring at the mess of blue hair in front of him.

...

The pair barely had any time to eat their delicious eggs before they almost missed the bus. Ekko sighed heavily as he sat down on the bus seat beside Jinx. "Your hair...takes way...too long to comb."

Jinx shrugged, pulling her hair into a large, swinging ponytail. She then pulled a section of hair separate from the ponytail and began to braid it, tying it off at the end. "My momma gave me this hair, and I'm gonna love it like it was my own kid. Do you realize how hard it is to maintain this?"

Ekko combed his fingers through his mohawk. "Nope."

Jinx rolled her large, neon pink eyes. "Dummy," she pecked him on the cheek as the bus skidded to a stop before the High School. Ekko poked her cheek in return as the kids started filing off the bus. "By the way, what's with the new hairstyle?"

Jinx pulled her ponytail over her shoulder and stroked it, her separate braid swinging as she walked. "No reason," she mumbled, glancing away and blowing hair out of face. Ekko frowned but didn't push it. "Prom's soon, and soon after that there's college," he said distractedly. "What schools did you apply for? Did you already apply for any earlier this year?"

Jinx shrugged. "I applied for early decision to Riot Uni. I got accepted, surprisingly."

Ekko shoved her playfully. "That's great!"

Jinx smiled. "What about you?"

The boy grinned, "I applied for Zaun University. I don't know if I'm going to get in, but I hope I can. If I don't then I can just go to Riot Uni, like you. I've applied for it too."

"That is, if you get in, dummy," Jinx teased. The two continued to chat casually until they reached their lockers. Completely against the school rules, Jinx had spray painted her locker with a bright pink X. It was a wonder she wasn't expelled yet.

Jinx gathered her things and slammed her locker shut as Ekko slowly grabbed his binders. "What's the rush?" He asked. Jinx shrugged, flipping her bangs from her eyes. "I wanna find Riv before the bell rings."

Shrugging, Ekko nodded and asked, "You want me to come with?"

Jinx smiled, grabbing his hand. "Duh!"

Ekko heard vague whispers as he was dragged down the hallway, catching words that sounded suspiciously like "Jinx finally gave that lovesick hourglass a chance."

"Riv!" Jinx's loud voice rang down the hallway as she caught sight of the silver haired girl. Riven waved at the bluenette, chuckling as she saw Ekko being pulled along. "Hey Jinx. Ekko, nice of you to stop by," Riven greeted, closing her locker.

Ekko stuck out his tongue. "Where's Yasuo?"

Riven shrugged. "He might be out sick, he usually gets here pretty early."

Jinx stuck out her bottom lip, "Poor paintbrush head. Hey, Riv, maybe we can stop by after school to see how he's doing later?"

Ekko raised his hand as if he was in class. "Uh, hello?"

"You too," Jinx said dismissively. Ekko faked offense. "Wow, I'm glad that I'm so special."

Jinx pulled him by the shirt and gave him a sweet kiss on the lips. "Does that make you feel any more special?"

Riven gaped at them. "Wow."

Ekko blushed. "Well..."

Riven pulled Jinx into a hug. "Well, you finally got him as a boyfriend, Jinx!"

Jinx squirmed in her best friend's grip. "This is embarrassing, Riv, let me go!"

Riven squeezed Jinx one more time before releasing her. "You guys should get to first period soon. The bell's gonna ring in a minute."

Jinx saluted her friend and grabbed her boyfriend's hand. "See ya."

I have a question. If you had to pick, who would be most likely to be a bully to Jinx? Take out Vi and Cait, because they don't really count. It can be any champion that exists. Let me know, either by PM or review ^_^
