1-The new students
Axel's pov
Argh, who's calling me so early? I just want to sleep some more.
Wait...there's only own reason why someone would call me that early, school...Oh, sh*t I forgot it was the first day of class.
I guess sleeping in will wait.
I have a good idea of who's calling me and I bet she's mad.
I get up from my tangled sheets and take my phone.
Indeed, I have one thousand notifications and I check the time. Crap, it's 7h09 am, I was supposed to be up at 6h30 but at least it's not as bad as I thought. If I make it fast, I'll make it to school in no time.
Guess, calling my girlfriend will have to wait but I'll at least tell her that I'll see her at school.
After I text her, I contemplate answering the other texts but with how much time I have left, it's better not. They'll see me at school anyway.
I walk into my room and take my stupid uniform on my desk chair. Gosh, I sure didn't miss that uniform.
I put on the dark blue pants, then, I pull on my white sleek shirt alongside the collar that goes underneath and finish the touch by putting on the usual dark blue jacket with the school's logo.
I look cool in that uniform despite my obvious dislike of it. Through, my hair does not and Grace will kill me if I don't do the bare minimum of effort for my hair.
I get in the washroom wash my hair and then begin styling my dyed red hair into a somewhat messy style that somehow people like. Hah, my red hair, I really do look badass.
Then, I quickly leave my room and take my backpack only to put it on my back. I head into the kitchen and notice my dad sitting in a comfy chair in the living room drinking his coffee alongside the journal. Ugh,
I didn't want to see him this morning.
I take a muffin and attempt to leave but of course, I'm proven wrong.
"Hey, where are you going leaving that fast?"
"School?" He raises his eyebrows in acknowledgement.
"You were supposed to be up an hour ago, you're gonna be late." He says with his usual boring strict voice.
″Dad, it really doesn't matter at what time I get up. It's just school."
"You don't want to have your reputation ruined on that first day, right?"
"Of course not but again, it's the first day, no one cares."
"I do care." He says more firmly this time and I get surprised by that.
"Well, I don't."
I take my skateboard and leave the front door of the house.
Not the best morning but it really doesn't matter.
I finish my muffin quickly, position myself on my skateboard and start skating.
Today it's a good day, though I'm sure it'll be hot as hell. Oh well, it's still August anyway. School better be worth it today.
I move with my skateboard at a slightly faster rate than normal and after a while, I arrive at school, Selcan High and realize I still have time to spare.
I take off my skateboard and put it underneath my arm.
I walk in the terrain to get into the school.
Gosh, I didn't miss Selcan High but it feels good to be a junior, next year I'll be a senior but one thing I noticed are freshmen, of course, there are. They look so troubled and lost. Oh well, they aren't the first ones to start high school, they'll make it through.
Before entering the terrain, there is a huge parking lot where the school personnel and the lucky ones have their car park. Unfortunately, I'm not a senior and in the middle of the process of getting my driver's permit.
Then in the actual terrain, there's not much going on except a place for bicycles and scooters. I could've bought a scooter but I prefer my skateboard.
Through, we can see from here a huge football field and track field. I don't think I need to explain.
I open the big ass doors of Selcan High just like many at the same time as me. Through this, my time for myself is cut short quite fast.
"Hey, Axel! How's summer been for you?" A random guy that gets in at the same time ask.
"Cool, I hung out with Grace and skateboarded a lot, but I had work too."
"Oh yeah, that sucks."
"Definitely."
As I get in alongside that guy, I notice Grace and her best friend Tessa in the lockers not too far from here, Grace notices me too and stares at me intensely.
"I won't keep you for long, I'm sure you're dying to make out with Grace." Although weird his attempt to sound cool, I pay him no mind and walk in the direction of Grace.
As soon as I do, I greet her by kissing her but she pulls me to her against the lockers and increases the intensity of the kiss, ok making out it is.
We completely lose it as we kiss slouchy and attack each other's mouth vigorously. At some point, I'm pretty sure my skateboard is taken from me.
I'm close to tugging the collar of her shirt before we get interrupted.
We continue until we get introduced.
"You guys are traumatizing the poor freshman." Sarcasm is evident in Tessa's tone.
I push away from Grace and look at Tessa holding my skateboard underneath her arm.
"Oh please, they deserve to know who's the hit couple in this school," Grace says confident in her eyes.
"For sure, you two are so fire I swear."
"Yeah, we so are." Grace agrees.
"OK, so those are our lockers?" I question.
"Yep, I picked them myself and of course I'm next to you."
"Why am I not surprised?" I chuckle and smirk, while she smiles.
"And as the tradition follows I'm next to Grace, like there's no way I'm next to a loser or even worse a freshman," Tessa says disgustedly.
"Gosh, we gotta make sure no one takes the spot on your left," Grace says.
"No need 'cause' I'm taking that one. Wouldn't miss the chance to be next to such a pretty girl."
The guy appears out of nowhere, yet stands right next to the designed locker and smiles charmingly at Tessa but she only rolls her eyes, which reveals that it is Zayne.
"I didn't ask for you to pick that locker," Tessa says.
"Oh well, I guess you'll be stuck with me all year long."
"Hey Zayne, couldn't text you this morning but I'm here," I say and turns to me.
"Yeah, I figured." He looks at Tessa and raises his eyebrows.
"You stole Axel's skateboard?"
"Nah, I had to take it they were too busy going at it, wouldn't risk destroying Axel's precious skateboard." She says with such sarcasm and that only gets me curious.
"Oh really? My precious skateboard?" I ask in a teasing curiosity.
"Yeah, I swear you'd save that skateboard over Grace." Grace scowls at that.
"Really? He'd save me first obviously." I laugh at the ridiculousness of this and Zayne does too.
I put my arm around Grace.
"I love my skateboard but I'd always save Grace first," I say confidently and Grace smiles to taunt Tessa.
"Oops, I forgot, Grace is your sweetheart." She says sarcasm is always evident in her voice.
"Ok, lovebirds, as much as school sucks, class is awaiting us."
"Wait, let me put away my skateboard."
"And here I thought you'd bring it to class," Tessa says smirking and Grace glares a bit at her.
"Yeah, I would but unfortunately it's not allowed," I say faking my sadness.
"You should definitely do it one time." Tessa challenges.
"Maybe I might as well try," I smirk and Tessa does too but I decide to stop upon feeling Grace staring daggers at us.
I open the locker and put off my skateboard and my backpack.
"You're leaving your backpack in your locker?" Grace questions.
"Yeah? I don't need that, let's face it we won't do anything today."
"Yeah, you're kinda right," Grace says.
Not long after, we leave the lockers and as we do, I notice two students handing the way of our lockers. I've never seen them before. Are they new? Eh, they're probably just freshman, it's the first day of class.
We continue chattering to go to class and as usual, everyone keeps looking at us, especially the freshman. We'll probably be trending all over social media and Grace is so gonna like the attention though, I couldn't care less, we're just trending that's it.
But I know that sens we have uniforms, clothes can't be of importance, so any kind of news takes the most importance.
Even if Grace is way better without her uniform, she still looks good. I mean she always puts the most effort into her appearance even more so because of the uniforms, so her face outright beats our boring uniform.
She has long length dirty blond hair that falls below her breasts. They are all flowy and glowing all the time. Not only that, she has the body every girl dreams to have, perfect in the right places. She's 5.2 ft so she's smaller to me but honestly, it's kinda annoying tilting my head to her height, don't tell her that through.
Her face is her biggest asset. She has agonizing baby blue eyes that look like they could kill but really could not, she doesn't terrorize me at all. Her smile is so angelic and cute, well that's what everyone says. Other than that, she always puts on the right makeup that fits her face. I couldn't care less but Zayne made me agree to that the other day.
She's literally Barbie.
Tessa is different yet quite similar. She's the one that's actually terrifying. She has long straight hair, a mix of light brown hair and platinum blond and her eyes...You can't go on her last nerve unless you want her intense upturned green eyes that look even colder with her eyebrows. In other words, she has a resting b*tch face, doesn't help that she doesn't smile a lot, at least it's fake and her deep jaw.
Yeah, she's tall, about 5.7 feet but still shorter than me and she's quite thin, maybe too much but it's not like I care about that, I just have to deal with her because she just so happens to be my girlfriend's best friend.
The girls are pretty and all but Zayne is a good-looking fellow too. He's taller than me, he has a solid 6.2 height, has large bulky shoulders and has quite the musculature all over his body. Pretty sure he has abs too. He's built perfectly to be a footballer and sure he is.
Zayne has light blond hair, natural too and his eyes are a scale of dream blue eyes, basically a weird mix of green and blue, I can't even figure out myself, not like I care enough for that. The lucky guy has dimples whenever he smiles.
Other than his body that makes other girls drool even lowkey boys too, his likeable personality adds to that. I mean the guy keeps being the charmer and the gentleman. I wonder if it's mandatory for football players, probably not because I've met the others and some of them are assholes. I guess it's a Zayne thing.
I don't understand why he's so nice and so bubbly I can't wrap my head around that. I guess we're too different for me to comprehend that.
Regardless, I've said too many details about them, details I'm surprised I know how little I care.
———————-
We get to the class and for a few short seconds I don't remember what class this is supposed to be, guess I'll figure it out.
We pick our places in the back of the class. Grace and I, Tessa behind us who wasn't interested in sitting with Zayne but still surrendered.
The other classmates came in but I couldn't pay any mind because Grace decided to make out with me at our desk. I don't know what it is about but oh well.
Everything else is tuned out as I am forced to focus on Grace's lips.
We get interrupted not long after.
"You two get off of the desk immediately, no kissing will be tolerated in my class. Next time you'll get a detention." The new teacher, of course.
I roll my eyes, as I recently sit back down in my chair and so does Grace.
"I believe everyone is here unless some decided to not show up today which will be too bad for them because this class is important. Good morning, my name is Mr. Colburn and I will be your Calculus teacher for this year. For this class, I will go over all the material and what we learn in class. I will also go over my expectations from you all for this class. But before I do, we have two new students in this class and they should be here shortly."
New students? Who could they be? Is it a new girl? A guy? Both of them are guys or, girls?
"Who do you think those new students are?" Grace asks.
"I don't know, they better be interesting," Tessa says.
"They better not try to compete with me, I hope it's just losers, what do you think Axel?" Grace says as she latches on my arm by gives up when the teacher glares at us.
"I don't know, though I wonder who they are."
"Same I would love it if one is a guy 'cause that means another guy among the Sleeks," Zayne says.
"I guess we'll see for ourselves," Tessa smirks devilishly, hm, weird.
Then as if on cue, the two students arrive and immediately my eyes are on the guy. Who's this guy?
"There they are, would you two care to introduce yourselves?" Mr Colburn asks.
"Sure no problem. Hey, you can all call me Jasper, we're new in town. I can't wait to get to know this school and you all."
Ok, seems like a girl that is looky trans, can't tell through but she's not the one that's got me interested, I want to know who's this guy that's standing next to her all reserved.
"That's my twin Shawn, we're the Petersons." Jasper smiles at the guy.
"Well, yeah Jasper's my twin and um...yeah, that's it about me." He says awkwardly and others make sounds of disappointment.
Ugh, I really thought he'd give us more information about who he is. He's making me want to know more about him. I don't know what it is, it's like something in his reserved demeanour draws me in.
At first glance, I can tell, he's a nerd which makes me even more confused, how can he be good-looking but obviously a nerd? All the nerds I know of are boring and mid, but for some reason, he's not and he doesn't seem to be aware.
He has light brown hair and dark brown eyes,
he wears glasses but not one that hides his eyes, in fact, it makes him stand out more, it's stylish on him. If he didn't give the vibes of a nerd, he'd be a decent guy. Of course, he has the Selcan high uniform but on him, it looks way too good, he just owns it for some reason.
He seems to be around my height, 5.10 ft if I'd have to guess and his body proposition is quite alright but I don't know what goes down underneath his clothes...
"Hey, are you seeing this? Who is this new guy?" Grace snaps me out of my thoughts.
"I don't know but it's a bummer he didn't say anything about himself."
"I think we have a hottie alert, he's got potential." Tessa smiles dreamily and we all get surprised by that, though Zayne seems put off by it the most.
"He's obviously a nerd and nerds are boring but I get that he looks good, but calling him hottie might be an exaggeration and what about the twin? Are we forgetting about her?" Zayne says.
"Yeah, I know but that's what adds to the charm and that girl is obviously a trans or something, we should stay away from her," Tessa answers back.
"Now that introductions are done, you may sit where you want." We get cut off by the teacher.
The two new students walk in the between the lines of desk and just our luck, settles right in front of us.
"I have an idea of what we're gonna do to that new guy," Tessa says as she stares intensely at the new guy, Shawn.
What is she planning to do to that guy? Eh, I couldn't care less about that. It's odd how interested I am in this guy but I'm probably getting ahead of myself. Everyone will stop being interested in no time, he's just the new guy after all.
