4.
I laid passed out on my bed peacefully, soft snores echoed through out my apartment. But my alarm broke threw the silence. I groaned, rubbing my eyes before sitting up on my bed. I looked over to my small nightstand near me where my alarm clock stood," 6:30...?" I read aloud, rubbing my neck before swinging my legs o we to the right side of my bed,"...Did I really fall asleep yesterday...?"
I yawned, stretching my arm before jumping out of bed. I walked over to my old wooden dresser, pulling out a black Tee. I tiredly pulled off my old shirt from the day before and put on the new one.
I grabbed a small comb which laid on my dresser and quickly combed my hair before heading to my small kitchen where I grabbed a day old apple and began to eat.
I leaned against the small kitchen top as I ate, and several thought swam in my mind about today. Then the thought of Angelina came to mind ' Is she really valuable? Would it be worth it to...'
I shook the thought out on my head, cursing to myself for even thinking about it. I might be called 'The Devil', but I don't like to intentionally hurt someone, specially her...
-----
Once I finished eating my so-called 'breakfast', I swung my backpack onto my right shoulder and headed out the door to school.
I started to plug in my earbuds while I jogged down the staircase, being careful to not step or make any holes in the old wood. I pass the main office, seeing the small latino man sitting in his cheap office chair, his eyes glued to his small TV. So I easily made my way out of the death-trap of an apartment building.
-----
I ran by all the traffic and through ally ways till Century High finally came into my view, and once again, I was surround by the black blur of students.
But out of the blue, Kira ran up to me, panic written on her face," Boss! Have you seen Mark anywhere? You know, the new blond member?" She asked.
" I know who he is, and no, I haven't, but he should show up today or tomorrow. No need to worry." I replied as she let out a sad sigh.
Since Kira was third in command, she was in charge of looking after our new members of Hell's Angels, she would train and teach them if needed. But this member...seemed special to her in a way...
I dismissed her and continued walking.
I kept my head low as I walked threw the halls of the school, not wanting to make any eye contact with anyone who would probably stare at me in fear or disgust. But out of no where, I felt a tug on my left arm. I whipped my head around to see Angelina smiling at me as she held on my arm," Good morning!" she cheered, her radiant smile seem to brighten my world in a way.
Her hands were soft as she held onto my arm, my cheeks began to heat up a bit.
I pulled my arm out of her soft grip," What is it?" I asked harshly, hoping that it'll scare her away, but it didn't.
" I was hoping we could talk before class." She replied, walking to the right side of me.
" About what?" I questioned, a hint of annoyance in my tone. ' Why is she being so friendly towards me..?' I thought as I began to walk away.
She followed me, and some how kept up with my pace," Well...I'd like to know more about you." Angelina replied, a smile plastered on her face as we walked.
I sighed, knowing I wouldn't be able to get her to go away,"...Alright, but can we head outside first?" I asked as she nodded with glee.
We began to head towards the back door of the school where we had a open field for the students to hang out and socialize. Though I wasn't a fan of 'socializing', I would prefer to be out there then in here with all the students glaring at me and Angelina.
Once we reached the glass doors which led to the field area, I pushed them open, being greeted by the sound of chatter and laughter.
" Come on! I know a place," She insisted, grabbing onto my arm once more and pulling me in a direction of a willow tree.
I followed behind Angelina as she pulled me, not wanting to fight back and cause a small scene in front of all the students who would think I was hurting the school's 'Angel'.
We finally made it to a small hill where the tree rested," Why are we here...?" I asked, inspecting the tree a bit before starring back at Angelina.
" It's a peaceful place I like to visit from time to time." She replied, finally releasing my arm from her grip and plopping herself down on the soft green grass," I only bring friends here since its special to me."
" Special?" I questioned, standing in front of her with my hands stuffed into my pockets.
She nodded, patting the spot next to her, obviously insisting me to sit down. I rolled my eyes, sitting down next to her under the shade of the tree.
" So..." She said, playing with a strand of her golden locks,"...do you have any hobbies?"
" What kind of question is that?" I questioned, a bit annoyed.
" I don't know what to ask! I'm just saying what comes to mind..." Angelina replied, biting down on her lip a bit.
I sighed, rubbing my temple in frustration,"...Music..."
She looked up at me in surprise," Really?" She asked, tilting her head a bit as she stared.
"...Yeah, I play a bit of guitar and....sing..." I replied, not making any eye contact with her in embarrassment.
" That's amazing!" She shouted in excitement, scooting a bit closer to me," I'd love to hear you!"
A shocked expression was written on my face as I finally looked at Angelina, her smile shinning like a thousand stars," W-What...?"
" I mean -if you'd like- you could sing to me sometime?" She rephrase, her cheeks tinted a light color of pink.
I shook my head," No. I don't sing or play anymore..." I replied, my tone cold as I stared off in the distance.
From the corner of my eye, I could see her smile drop for a moment, but she quickly shook it off," Well, should we head back? The bell is about to ring." Angelina commented, standing up from her comfy spot on the grass.
I nodded, about to get up when she lend out her hand to me," Need help up?" she asked, giving me her radiant smile.
I heisted for a moment, but then grabbed her hand. Though I had to mostly pull myself up, I felt a warm feeling in my chest from her gesture.
She began to run down the hill like a small child, giggling as she ran. I stood on the hill top for a moment, admiring the view. I rubbed my chest weirdly, it felt tight and I couldn't breath right 'Why do I feel this way around her..?' I thought.
I looked back at Angelina to see her at the bottom of the hill waiting for me," Are you ready to go or what?" She asked playfully.
" Alright, I'm coming." I replied, jogging down the hill to meet up with her.
" What took you so long?" She asked as we began to walk back towards the school building.
"I just...got lost in my thoughts I guess..." I replied, rubbing my chest again.
" Well your going to make us late for Mrs. Brooks class! You know how she gets when we're late." Angelina commented, a playful smile on her lips.
I rolled my eyes 'She's really goofy, ain't she?' I thought as the bell rang, echoing through out the hallways," Come on! We're going to be late!" She yelled as she grabbed on my arm again, pulling me along to our History class.
