"I think I will be taking my leave now," he said and turned around. "I'm Justin Lemon, by the way," He told me and I giggled slightly, he had the name of a fruit.
"Nice name," I said smirking and he chuckled."I know, I get that a lot," he said and I smiled, we'd just known each other for barely ten minutes and it felt like I'd known him for long."What department are you in?" I asked and he ran his hand through his hair."Criminology," he told me and I became surprised, he didn't look like it, he looked like he was in the pharmacy department--that was the den of hot boys, while in the criminology department only geeks and bookworms type of boys that were there."That's nice, what level are you cause this is the first time I am seeing you here?" I did not know everyone in school but I was familiar with most students' faces, and I had never seen his face before."300 and I'm a transfer student." He was on the same level as I am! He was a transfer student just like Luke! But he was more friendly and better than LukeI was sure that I hadn't seen him before in this school, he was new here and he was so nice and handsome, his black leather jacket, black jeans and brown leather boots gave him this bad boy look, that was why I was shocked when he told me he was in a criminology department."Nice to meet you Lemon the fruit," I teased and he glared at me."Don't try that," he warned with his Spanish accent and I giggled. I love Spanish guys--the handsome ones--they were so dreamy with their heavenly accents."Oh yes, I will, Lemon," I said stubbornly and he rolled his eyes.He sighed and shook his head. "Okay I give up, you can call me whatever you want." He turned around and began walking away, "Goodbye mi belle, we shall see some other time?" He waved at me as he walked and I waved back slowly.He disappeared into the crowd and as soon as he left I felt lonely once more, I did not know why I felt so comfortable and happy when talking with Lemon even though I barely knew him, he was better than Luke, Luke was so dense and rude.I wonder where he was now. I turned to where Luke was talking to those girls, but he was not there, probably he was making out with those girls when I was talking with Lemon and now they were in a room doing some nasty stuff.I shrugged and turned, I didn't want to think about all they would do there if now I was going to throw up. I stood up from the bar stool and went out of the building, I was tired of the loud music and the bright lights, I couldn't get used to them no matter how long I stayed in there.As soon as I stepped outside I was welcomed by a gentle breeze which made strands of my hair dance. I rubbed my hands against my skin a little, the night was quite cold, but it was better here than the party, here was serene and smelled nice.I checked my phone and it was almost eleven at night and I wanted to go home but I doubted that there would be any taxi by this time. I was all alone here, I was glad that the street had lights which made here brighter, if it didn't I would not have been able to stay here. I hated the dark.I heard footsteps coming from behind and I hid myself. It was Luke and just as usual his face was as stony as the Great Wall of China.What was he up to?My jaw dropped to the ground when I saw him entering a crimson red 2023 convertible Ferrari 812 GTS. This beast had a 6.5 litres V-12 engine and it could reach over 100mph in less than ten seconds and it cost over five hundred thousand dollars. The street lights reflected on the car's metallic body making it super shiny.I have been a car person, since I was little I have loved cars, especially sports cars, but I didn't have any--I didn't even know how to drive! I read a lot of car magazines and watched Racing sports, I was planning on saving up for a decent sports car, but that would take me years to accomplish because of how expensive they were.If Luke could afford this type of car as a student that means he was wealthy or he came from a very rich family.The more I thought about him the more I wanted to know more about him. He was strange and I didn't know why I was drawn to him.He ignited his car engine and the once quiet street became noisy with the exhaust sound of his car. The sound of the car was so loud and nice.That's a five hundred thousand Ferrari for you.He pulled the car out of its packing space with incredible speed and zoomed off.Where was he going? I wondered.'To his house, you idiot,' my subconscious mind yelled and I face-palmed myself. I was so disappointed in myself for being so engrossed with Luke, I wanted to get him off my mind, but it wasn't as easy as it looked.I sighed.Luke wasn't important to me now, what was important was how I would leave this place. I could still hear the muffled noises coming from the frat house and I knew Emily was still there probably dancing like a crazy ostrich and on her fifth bottle of bear.There was no way I would go back to that building, I wanted to go home, but it wasn't possible because there were no taxis and my apartment was almost twenty minutes drive from here, there was no way I could walk to my apartment, especially in this time of the day.I was quite frustrated and clueless about what to do. While still in my train of thought a white 2023 Mercedes-Benz C class, stopped in front of me.The car windows were tinted and I couldn't see who was in the car, I began wondering who it was.The car window slowly wound down, revealing a smiling Justin...don't tell me he was this rich too? Not every 'normal' student couldn't afford a car like this. Emphasis on normal."Do you care if I give you a ride, mi belle?" He asked and my eyes widened. This was what I wanted, a way to go home but I was sceptical about this, I had little trust in him, we only knew each other for two hours. It was normal not to trust strangers.I sighed."Thanks, I'll love it if you did," I chirped and he grinned. Gosh, he was so handsome."Then what are you waiting for? Hop in, mi belle." The car door opened stylishly and I entered. I was welcomed by the chilling whirls of air coming from the A.C. and the sweet smell of strawberries air freshener. The interior was very nice and my jaw dropped when I saw the dashboard lined with gold? Not only the dashboard but most of the interior of the car was lined with gold, because of the gold and quality leather this car could be worth not less than four hundred thousand dollars.He was just a student!"Are you alright, mi belle?" He asked me when he noticed that I had just frozen in one spot. I snapped out of my trance and smiled."I'm fine," I told him smiling and put on the safety belts. I do not joke with safety."Okay, mi belle." He said and shifted the car gear, the car began moving and in less than a minute the frat house was out of sight.I knew Emily was going to kill me for leaving her behind and the thought of it made me worried.Lemon asked for my house address and I told him, I didn't know whether I did the right thing by telling him my house address, but I did not care about it much, I just wanted to go home.I rested my head on the car window and slept off.I woke up with the sun rays streaming through my room window. I blink rapidly and use my hand to cover my eyes from the brilliance of the sun.My head ached badly, I couldn't fully remember how I got here. All I could remember was that I was with someone last night and the person drove me here. Or was it a dream?No, it felt too real to be a dream.Who was I with?Justin Lemon, yes I was with Justin, the hot guy with a Spanish accent that has the name of a fruit."Justin!" I shouted and looked around hoping that he was there. Then I noticed a piece of neatly folded paper tucked by the side of my bed. I hurriedly picked the paper up, I knew there was an important message in the paper.I unfolded the paper. Just as I thought it was an important message-it was a note from Justin! It reads:I'm sorry I didn't say goodbye before I left. You were so fast asleep that I didn't want to disrupt your sleep. See ya later, my sleeping mi Belle. ~Justin.I couldn't remember falling asleep in his
Emily?" I whispered. "I have great news for you." I was eager to tell Emily how Luke stared at me for some seconds.She turned to me and I was as ready as possible to break the news to her. She perceived that it was not something of great importance and stared away quickly. I frowned."Emily this is urgent," I persisted and her eyebrows furrowed."For goodness sake, Cruise, we are in a lecture session.""I know, but this is very urgent," I pushed on and she rolled her eyes, right now my brain couldn't process whether what I was doing was sensible or not. "Ok fine." She finally gave up, she turned to me again and asked, "What is it?"I straightened myself for the hundredth time."It's Luke," I said giggling and my cheeks began turning red."Yes, what happened to him, did he die?" She asked bluntly."No, no he did not die, I won't be happy if he died," I said honestly and she rolled her eyes."I'll be happy if he did so that you can let me be for a damn second," she said through her
He stared at me, surprised, he never expected me to do this, he didn't know that I was this crazy, even though he towered above me and I had to stand on my toes before I reached his collar, I wasn't scared.He frowned and glared at me. I rolled my eyes while still holding his shirt."I won't leave unless you say something," I told him with my eyes shut, I knew that this was stupid and outrageous, and I was going to be overwhelmed with embarrassment, but I didn't care.The hall was rowdy and I thank God for that, everyone was busy and didn't notice the little drama that was going on between Luke and me."Talking to you is not necessary," Luke said with his voice as cold as the North Pole. His voice was quite deep and his American accent sounded heavenly. My grip became weak and Luke removed my hands from his shirt."I have finally talked to you, I've done my part now it's your turn," he brought out his homework and threw it at me, "submit my homework you annoying pest." He said through
I woke up and began preparing for school. I checked my phone and I saw a text from Justin, I smiled and opened it.Justin: "Buenos Dias, Mi belle"I smiled and replied to his greeting. Justin was one of the nicest guys I have ever met, he was funny and very interesting, he liked watching criminal documentary shows and he normally tells me some of the very interesting and scary ones he has watched. I imagined him becoming a very super hot detective.I checked what today was and it was Friday, today was a special day, it was the semester's cup finals and Luke's Team and Justin's Team were playing against each other. I was so excited about the match. I didn't like football so much, but I badly wanted to see Luke and Justin play against each other. Those two were like enemies and they always competed against each other. Some days while I was with Justin we normally ran into Luke, and the air surrounding us changed, the look on their faces whenever they crossed paths showed the hatred they
The second half began and I had high hopes for Justin and his team, they were going to win, there was no way Luke was going to win! Well, I didn't want Luke to win because I disliked him and I preferred Justin who was nice and friendly to him.The players came out and I began shouting Justin's name. He turned my way and he was able to spot me in the crowd, he blew me a kiss and winked at me. My cheeks became red like tomatoes and I felt butterflies in my stomach. When I turned around I saw many girls sitting beside and behind me reacting the same way I did after Justin blew me a kiss. I frowned but quickly smiled, I didn't want anything to ruin today for me.This was the best day ever, I regretted not watching football throughout my life, if I had known I would have viewed football differently.The match began and Justin's team started nicely. Justin got the ball and headed towards the goal net of the opposing team, he dribbled past the defenders and passed to one of his teammates.Jus
LUKE POVAfter the football match, I returned to my horrific apartment which was just a bedroom flat in a really bad shape, I couldn't stand people following me wherever I went, that's why I always left school early. Every time Luke can you go out with me? Luke, can you be my friend? Luke, can I have your number? Luke, can I have your I*******m handle? Luke this Luke that...Luke doesn't care about all of you or anything else. I punched the walls and my hands went through them and I shook my head when I saw that the wall was almost falling because I have punched too many holes into them.I really need to work on my temper. I pulled my shirt and picked up my phone, I don't know why X hasn't called me up till now, I wanted to know what my mission is, I wanted to accomplish it and leave this forsaken place and school. I called X and she picked up the call immediately. "Hello pretty, boy," she said with a flirtatious voice and I frowned."Screw you, X," I said through my teeth and she gi
Luke's Pov. I couldn't sleep throughout the night, the voice of that girl kept on ringing in my head. It was so frustrating, no matter how much liquor I drank it wouldn't get her voice out of my head. The sun began to rise and I rolled out of my bed, I had lectures today so I had to go to school. I scanned the whole room with my eyes and then headed to the shower. I wasn't fully mechanical, most of my human organs were still intact, and I still looked very much like a human. But what made me look outlandish was the shiny blue core on my chest, which was my power core. It was a Nuclear reactor and it give power and sustained the robotic parts of my body, without it, I won't be able to live.I put on a black plain T-shirt and black jeans trousers. I checked the time on my wristwatch and it was almost 9:00 am, and my classes were starting by 9."I guess I won't be using the taxi to get to school," I muttered to myself and flew out of the window. I made sure nobody saw me as I fly in th
DAKOTA'S POVYou haven't answered my question yes, Dakota, why are you following me?" He asked through his teeth and I began hyperventilating.I... I..." I stuttered, I didn't know what to say. Why was I lost on what to say? Why was I shaking like a turkey about to be killed? I thought I told myself that I will be braver. I closed my eyes and took in a deep breath and said boldly, "I was curious about where you go after every lecture, so I decided to follow you, that's all." Phew. That sounded better than I expected-- it seems like I am braver if I don't look at him.He remained silent and I waited for him to say something but he didn't.I opened my eyes to see why he hasn't said anything yet, and that was the worst mistake I made...He raised his hand slowly and brought it toward me. I shuddered, I thought he was about to strangle me or hit me, but I was wrong, he held my chin while his other hand was on the wall, then he brought his head closer to me and I backed away, his head wa
