Chapter-1: PDA Is Not Allowed In School.
SWAN
If only I could get a firm grip on reality, I'd choke it.
Yes. I mean, till when will I suffer this?
Till primary school, I was so damn proud of the fact that my mum is an astronomer but now I realize, how much I dread this profession. Well, it's not just the amount of mathematical calculation or scientific formula you have to use that scare the crap out of me, but the amount of research that goes into this stuff is pretty much immeasurable.
My mum's dream requires that occasional chasing which keeps her away from me. As for Dad, well he's getting busier by the day. A few years back, he was around in the better part of the day but these days I see him only on weekends.
Now their dreams are dragging me away from the place I happen to love.
Texas
Coming back to reality, Right now I am waiting at the Alabama International Airport for my Dad, the Sheriff of Huntsville to pick me up.
My parents arrived in Huntsville a week ago. My dad had his swearing in ceremony as the Sheriff and Mom had to start her research at the Marshall Flight Centre.
I did beg my parents to let me stay at Aunt Mable's until graduation but they were adamant on me shifting with them. Not that I have anything against Huntsville, it seems to be a nice place but Texas had always been something special to me. Everybody doesn't love deserts. Scrap that, only a few and rare specimens like this land form and one can count me in. Apart from getting lost amongst several identical sand dunes, I think deserts are sort of alright. Leaving Texas has been difficult. I had spent about six years there.
Anyways its not worth crying over split milk. I gotta move on.
Next Morning...
Have you ever heard of something called The Killer Of Sleep?
If not then let me enlighten you...it's a stupid alarm! I personally believe that all alarm clocks should be destroyed and phoned shouldn't have such features anymore.
After banging it off, I rushed to get ready, grabbed whatever touched my hand first from the suitcase and dressed up.
I ran downstairs tripping at least five times and almost breaking my already pathetic nose. Then I grabbed an apple from the island and dashed straight for the door without caring to say goodbye to my shell shocked parents.
What?
I was super late for my first day at school.
I put the keys in the ignition of my newly bought Audi R8 and accelerated all the way to school. The new school was just a ten minute drive from the Wood Word street, which was pretty convenient. All I had to do was to follow the GPS and I was there.
I parked my car in the parking lot to witness multiple buildings called Ravenport High. The brick red building was surrounded by thick forest at the back. Though it wasn't very snowy in this part of the country, ever, still the school had slanting roof tops.
By the time of the first class which happened to be mathematics, something I despise, I had figured out most of the school.
Students started filling in a few minutes back and I was forcing my way through swarms of them to reach my locker.
No.13.
Yep. Already sounds like evil.
I stood in front of my locker and stared at the crowd, like I was stationed for their safety.
A few guys walked by me checking me out and saying Hi.
I greeted them with a smile while moving towards my locker.
I was shoving my stuff inside when a very barbie-ly dressed bimbo with 10 feet high heels stood beside me.
Okay...I exaggerated that part, but the heels were still really high. God knows how she walks in those without getting her heels punctured. Moreover, this was a school and not some Victoria Secret's ramp. I don't think the schools in Huntsville maintained the minimum skirt length rule here.
"You new here?" She questioned with a squeak, batting her glittered eyelashes at me.
I nodded.
"Well, PDA's are not allowed in school premises, so you better stay in your limits."
Well, she just crossed hers.
"Those guys just said hi. We weren't sucking each other's faces off, bitch."
"What did you just call me? Do you know who I am, I am the cheer captain, part of the student council and in Principal's good books. And I am..." but I cut off her ranting.
"Does it look like I give a flying f**k? Get a life chick."
She just gave me a disgusting look and stomped away, shaking her booty, might I mention.
What the hell is wrong with her?
"Whooo whoa Ravenport's very own SheMan."
I turned my face to see who this rascal was.
Well, he turned out to be a really hot piece of ass, But I had to revert back to the insult rather than drown in his hotness. Though, I'd have preferred the latter.
"I expected a few jerks to come my way in Huntsville, but being met by downright assholes just surpassed that expectation." I threw back.
Within moments his hands circled around my waist making mine hit his rock hard chest.
It was so quick that I didn't have time for bracing myself from this sudden pull. All I could do was to stare in his green orbs.
"Expect the unexpected." He smirked.
Nobody touches me without my permission. Nah! It's a big no no. And this dude is going to realise it pretty soon.
I raised my hand making it connect with his right cheek, winning gasps from the people who had surrounded us by now.
A look of shock replaced that stupid smirk. His eyes widened to the size of saucers.
Aww how much I loved to slap his smirk right off his face.
"You didn't expect that did you?"
