Chapter 1
I find a place near the pound to read. I feel at peace, no one is there to ruin my perfect happiness. Suddenly, Jason appears out of nowhere screaming “Hi there Damien!!!” God this kid is super annoying, some days I just want him to disappear from the world without a single trace. After having a quick chat with Jason, I picked up my stuff and left to go inside the school. The aroma of sweet cinnamon filled the school, displeasing many of the students, who had a sensitive nose.
“Hey, Mann”
“Hey Zack, what’s up”
“Nothing just living”
“I better get to class, talk to you later”
I sprinted off to class excited to see the one girl who made every day great—Michelle. I loved Michelle with my life, she was the perfect girl for me. She had silky smooth skin and shiny blonde locks, and she had the most beautiful wardrobe, which I happened to memorize. I wondered if she thought of me too, but I never brought up the courage to ask her and see what she thought of me. I had very low hopes, she never looked at me or even tried to have a regular conversation with me!
“Hey Michelle”
“Oh, hey Damien”
Michelle seemed upset as if something was bugging her so much that she couldn’t get it off her mind even in her favorite subject, Math. After the bell rang, I quickly sprinted to my dormitory. Tomorrow was going to be the day I asked Michelle about her feelings toward me and I needed to plan every individual step of my confession. I spent hours evaluating the different outcomes and how to deal with each one depending on what happens. I couldn’t sleep that night, my head was too wrapped around Michelle and her reaction. What would happen if she had a boyfriend or if she hated me with her whole life? This was all so confusing and there was no way I was going to sleep over it. Eventually, after a lot of tossing and turning, I went to sleep dreaming of the day I was going to marry Michelle.
Apologies for the brevity of this chapter. I promise the next ones will be more substantial. I welcome constructive feedback! See you next time, readers! <3
