A step to YOU

Fiona recently got admission in the most expensive high school of the city. Not because she threw in a lot of money but because of her sexy brain. She was one of those three students who received scholarships. She was gleeful and ready to conquer everything upcoming. Thinking about all these things on her way, she reached her new school.

Its aggrandizement was not just a bravado, it was indeed a splendid place. A tight security, students coming out of expensive cars. A beautiful entrance. "What next is coming?" she exclaimed joyfully. She parked her bicycle and wore her students card. Looked herself in her finger mirror, wore a little bit of tint.

"Queen is ready now", she blurted out.

"Excuse me?", a girl voice called Fiona.

She turned back to see a beautiful blond girl. 'Damn! she's pretty', she thought. And answered her, 'Yes'

"I actually wanted to ask you the directions towards freshmen class."

"Oh! I am actually going to that class too. Is this your first day too?" Fiona replied.

" Yes it is actually. I guess we can be first day mates." she gleefully answered.

'Sure we can. It's Fiona here.'

'I am Glenn.'

After their little chitchat they started walking towards the classroom.

' I was on a vacation with my family for the past two weeks, that's why I missed those classes. What was your reason Fiona?' Glenn asked.

'Well. I actually am going to study here on a scholarship and its procedures took really long. And here we are" Fiona stated.

'You shrewd little thing,' Glenn poked her ribs giggling.

They entered the class laughing like they've been best friends for decades. The class had not begun yet so everyone was busy in their own world. Fiona and Glenn sat together on the last bench.

'Miss Topper is it okay for you to sit here. Like all the brain maniacs I know would make no compromise on that', Glenn whispered.

'I don't wanna be that obnoxious thing, it's tiring to keep an image like that. Suck the world like that!' Fiona sighed.

'Oh thank God!' Glenn uttered.

Fiona laughed at that.

That was the time when she noticed how different people were there. There was a group of girls talking about their makeup and dolled up. Then their were guys and all of them looked filthy rich, who didn't even let the air around them get bothered when Glenn and Fiona entered.

Suddenly, one of those flamboyant girls noticed and pointed towards them. Everyone else followed her suit and came towards Fiona and Glenn's bench.

'OMG! Are you really Glenn tyson?'

'I really wanted to meet Glenn'

'Hey Glenn! how did you manage to get this Dior bag? It was limited edition.'

'Why are you sitting here Glenn? Come sit with us. I was waiting for you so anxiously.'

All sort of questions started erupting out about Glenn. Glenn was giving a regretful smile to Fiona who was equally astonished.

'Everyone Thankyou for your queries but I would rather sit with my new friend Fiona so, please give us some space.' announced Glenn.

Everyone started eyeing Fiona from top to bottom.

'I am feeling deadly stares right now. Are you a teen celebrity?' Fiona asked innocently.

'Hahaha! No that's not the case. Tyson Scott is my dad. So yeah, people try to gain some privileges like that. And believe me it looks great at first but gets really annoying and frustrating after some time and forever.' Glenn replied.

'Wow! you are one rich brat', Fiona replied cockily.

Glenn shrugged, smirking.

'Well! do those guys come with that privilege too? That tall one is handsome btw.' Fiona told Glenn while noticing the haughty and handsome one guy looking at Glenn with flirt in eyes.

'No chance with anybody. I am engaged.' Glenn showed Fiona her pretty and big ring.

'Wai-',

'Don't ask questions. That happens in our families. He's some Conglomerate living in Germany. We met briefly on our engagement because apparently he doesn't have time for me and is too busy. So yeah! business trap it is.' Glen interrupted Fiona.

'Let's change the topic if you do not wanna talk about it. But Glenn I am always here for you.' Fiona assured her.

'Thank you Fiona, it means a lot.' Glenn hugged her.

In the meanwhile, their homeroom teacher came in and everyone took their seats. Half of the lecture had passed when a tall, striking guy with messy hair entered the class and sat on the last seat, beside Fiona and Glenn. All the girls were getting shy and coy after that. The teacher gave him a look and continued his lesson again.

'Fiona before you ask why are these girls looking at him like that, I should tell you tha-'

'Because he is handsome.' Fiona happily guessed.

'Yes that is the reason too but he is actually Kai Scott, you know heir of Scott and Co., the car manufacturers. So yes! all in one you get.

But he's kinda snob you know. Apparently, you think he's a playboy but he's really obnoxious. I met him once at his birthday we were invited to. He straight forwardly rejected that girl on the second bench in front of everyone. My gosh she was humiliated.'

'But she is still sitting in hope. Woah! the confidence' Fiona exclaimed.

Kai was sitting with blank expressions looking at the board. He turned around to take a look around the class, when he stopped his gaze at Fiona.

'You might have another contestant sweety,' Fiona whispered in Glenn's ear.

Glenn's eyes followed Fiona's finger towards Kai.

'Stupid Girl! He's looking at you. God you are bad at this,' Glenn pinched her. 'Btw you didn't tell me about your love life girlie. You are telling me that at lunch okay? And what's up with this guy.'

Kai's gazed her for that moment and turned back to the board.

.............................................................

'Well! There is actually none to talk about my love life. I do not have the time and brain to waste on anybody. Nor did someone became a fanatic about me. Some guys approached me like they wanted to date, but I never gave them a positive answer. I don't know but I am kind of afraid, if things turn out bad. I can never risk my studies. So, my first priority takes over everything else.'

Glenn listened to Fiona and appreciated her passion.

'I wish you find that one fanatic guy, who's going to make you wild.'

Fiona just laughed at Glenn's wish.

Fiona was unlocking her bicycle and Glen was trying to persuade her, 'Please! it's our first day of friendship, we gotta celebrate it. Maybe you can take a leave from your part-time job today. Please?'

'I told you, we'll do that on Sunday. What's the rush?' Fiona assured her.

'I'm gonna break you if you break this promise.' Glenn pouted.

'I'm yours my lady', Fiona laughed.

Fiona drove towards the coffee shop near their school. She hurriedly changed into her café uniform and took her position on the counter.

She was counting bills, when someone in his deep voice placed his order, 'Can I get an Iced Americano?'

"Yes sure", She lifted her stance to see a familiar face.

'Isn't he Kai?'
