Well I hope that you do the same, aww sugar...

Alice alarm rang at 6:00 am, but she kept it snoozing until it was almost 6:30am, she always did this, it was a bad habit, but a habit after all. She dressed really quick, she grabbed a pair of black skinny jeans and a green Misfits t-shirt and with her fingers she kind of brushed her dark wavy hair until it look almost acceptable.

When she raced down the stairs and towards the front door, she heard her mom say a weak "goodbye", she answered with the same weakness "bye", and then she closed the door after her, she grabbed her bike from the garage and started going really fast through the streets and avenues that lead to her high school, it was not so far away, that's part of why she was always late, she always felt she could make it on time.

Bbut when she arrived to the door of her first class: history, it was too late; Mr. Olson was already standing infront of the class, with a black haired guy next to him, Mr. Olson was so distrated chatting with him that Alice decided to took a chance and slipped inside the classroom, sneaking to the last seat of the corner, the one that she usually sat on, she was so relieved that Mr. Olson didn't see her, actually it seemed like nobody saw her, since she had taken the decission to dress less "flamboyant" if we can call it that way, her life was much more calm, but also so boring...it was true less people bullyed her, but she felt bored and defeated by all those preppy people, but anyways she knew that one day (most likely in college), she'll have the opportunity to dress as she wanted with no one judging or bullying her, meanwhile she was just happy with her Misfits t-shirt, keeping it discrete but true.

Then Mr. Olson stopped talking with the black haired guy, and the second one started walking towars Alice that didn't give too much importance to it, then he sat on the empty desk infront of her.

The class started and her now "neighbour" was almost as quiet as her, which was really weird, "How come I've never seen this guy?" Alice thought for a second, "mmm...maybe it is because he tries to draw as less attention as me...", that was when Alice started stuying the strangers clothing, it was all black, except for his black and white chucks, the she realized, he was drawing something on his notebook, she moved a little to have a better look, and was amazed with what she saw: he was drawing the most amazing dragon, done fully with a black pen which he holded in one hand tracing and shadowing like he was not there in the class, but inside the drawing...he was too good.

The bell rang and Alice went outside, she was thinking of ways to forget about her hunger during the break, when someone behind her spoke: "So you like dragons huh?", said an unknown voice, she turned around to face the black haired guy that was sitting infront of her all class. She just then noticed he had hazel-greenish eyes, "uuuummm..." said Alice unable to answer anything smart, she was not used to people speaking to her just like that, "Oh I'm sorry" said the guy looking a little embarassed "I'm not used to just randomly talking to people but I thought your shirt was really cool and I noticed you were looking at my drawing from over my shoulder..." he said, "Oh thanks about the shirt, and yeah I thougt it was interesting, I'm sorry if I creeped you out...", Alice said, "No!, you didn't, actually it's really cool that someone finds my drawings interesting, by the way...my name is Gerard."
