Chapter 1 - School
Alex
‘AXELLL, WE’RE ALMOST LATE, GET YOUR ASS DOWN HERE NOWW !’ I yelled.
‘Alex, is that any way to act like a lady?’ Here we go again ..
‘How many times do I have to tell you so it gets through your head, you’re a –’
‘A lady and you have to start acting like one, I know, I know.’ Yes, I was a girl and my name just happened to be Alex.
‘Alex, I told you not to –’
‘Mom, please not now, Axel and I are going to be late.’ I whined.
‘Fine, wake your brother up.’
Ah lucky me, I didn’t have to hear my Mom blabbering on about that again. I ran upstairs then started banging on his door.
‘AXEL, SCHOOL STARTS IN 10 MINUTES, HURRY THE FUCK UP!’ I could hear his snoring from here, he was still sleeping. That sleepyhead.
‘AXEL, I swear to the God upstairs if you don’t open this goddamn door and wake your fatass up then I will tell Mom and Dad about what you did last night, I know you snuck – ’
Suddenly, he opened the door. He was only in his boxers and his hair was a mess, with his furious look I knew he was going to explode any minute now.
‘Dare to tell them then I swear I’ll kill you and they will never find the body.’
‘I’m so scared’ I said in a mocking tone ‘Oh yeah, by the way, did you forget that you have English for the first period?’
‘Shit’ He cursed. I couldn’t help but laugh. Everyone in school knew how Mr. Andrews was when somebody came late to class. As for me, I had Math for the first period, I wasn’t good at math but wasn’t that bad either. I still knew the answer to 2+2-1, besides math wasn’t used in everyday life, right?
I didn’t know whether he brushed his teeth or did his morning routine or not. But I admitted that he looked decent for school. We walked to school because it only took 5 minutes or so to get there. We did have a car, but it was my parents’. I also wanted to own a car but I knew my parents couldn’t afford that.
We were in Chemistry, our second period. Yes, we. Because he was almost in all of my classes. Mr. Williams’ voice boomed, blabbering on about Chemical Kinetics again.
How boring ..
I decided to do something in this boring class. I took out a paper and started writing down. After done, I threw the paper at Axel who is sitting next to me.
I didn’t know that Mr. Williams was coming this way until he spoke.
‘Axel, I see that you have something to share with the rest of the class.’ Picking the paper that’s fallen on the floor and opened it.
‘Ah, interesting, mind if I sharing this Mr. Davis?’
Oh God, kill me please
‘Axel, thank you so much for the love we shared last night. Last night was the best night of my life. But we were too loud, baby. The neighbors have complained to me this morning, they said we kept them awake all night and they couldn’t handle all the noises. Guess, our love is too loud for this world and that’s something we can’t control. But, I’ve promised them that tonight, they could all sleep without being disturbed by noise from our love.’
‘I know Mr. Davis that it’s Chemistry, but take your lovers’ quarrels out of my class cause you’re taking it too far.′
The whole class laughed loudly at that. I laughed right along with them and I could feel his eyes on me the whole time. Oh man, I’ll be in deep shit.
