I've just arrived school, hurried to the shelter of the school building from the drizzle rain. I watched the bus as it leave the school terminal. I wasn't very particular in taking the bus,correction, I totally hate the bus and wouldn't have ridden it if it hadn't been for the rain.
I'd requested my uncle who I'm living with to lend me his car which I think is over 80 years old which other people some in my generation would call junk; I'm into antiques so I don't really mind driving the red 1956 Chevrolet Corvette convertible.
'Oi Rica! What's going on?' a male approached me accompanied by a female.
I shot back a smile to them as they approached me. 'You guys are early. But I supose it's fine since you guys have a car on your own.' I shrugged.
'Your uncle hasn't gave in yet?' the female asked, a timid smile appeared on her thin red lips.
'No. Unfortunately. Buy hey, can I ride with you guys? I mean... If you don't mind.' I glanced at the male, noticed that teh two had exchanged looks. I know that they were going out, although they don't tell anyone (which includes me) yet worried how their parents would oppose to it. I've gotten used to how trivial thinking about those kind of matters which I wish something would change.
'Listen, forget it okay!' I shot another smile. 'I'll take the bus.'
'It's okay Rica.' the male hit my head with the two centimeter book which he had been holding, knocked my head light. He smiled, 'It's okay. I don't mind.'
The female grabbed my arm, tugged me as the school bell rang.
I walked along with them in the hallway going to our class.
'Damn!' the male suddenly cursed. I noticed that he was looking somewhere else. I followed where his gaze ended.
Ah, I saw two guys dragging a small skinny male out of the hallway. My eyes met the skinny boy's eyes. I couldn't pry my eyes from him, instinct or not I was drawn to him. I pulled away from my friends, ran after the three that quickly disappeared before my eyes. I didn't stop even as my friends called out to me. I ran and ran until I could no longer hear my friends' voices which I find odd since I know I wasn't that far from them.
'Some freak you are.!' one of the two guys uttered.
'Better know your place kid.' the other said as he punched the skinny male.
My eyes widened as I saw the scene, I started to wonder what exactly I was thinking following them.
The skinny male caught glimpse of me - pretty blue eyes like a gem solely focused on me. I saw him grin, and pretty sure he directed it at me. I couldn't help shiver.
The skinny male received another hit, this time on his stomach which made him kneel. His gaze still directed at me.
'Wha?' I realized too late that the two males' attention are on me now. I looked around searches for something knowing that it is I who is in danger now. I know the two males who doesn't care about anything as long as they get what they want.
'WHat do you want?' I hear a voice ring in my head. I don't know what it was, all I could think of is my desire to fight them off. I wish I could fight.
'Granted...' the voice trailed off.
Before I knew it, I actually hit one of the males down on the ground with my skinny arm WITH MY SKINNY ARM leaving me dumbfounded. as I stare at the male on the floor. I wasn't exactly off the hook with the other one glaring at me obviously angry at whatever I have done to his companion. He launched an attack which I don't know how I evaded. My right leg already had contact to the male's face which also knocked him down.
I felt my knees weaken, relief flood in that everything had ended. I sat on the ground trying to grasp what happened. I wasn't a fighter, never learned any fighting skill, watched but can a person fight so easily, that I am not sure.
'Wish granted!' somebody hummed. I turned and saw that it was actually the skinny male. He reached out a hand to help me stand. ''You really can fight huh?' he said with a grin. 'Guess it's thanks to your body built. Being healthy is good!'
I wasn't listening to him anymore, too focused on trying to understand what happened.
'Didn't you wish for a thrill in yor life? A change?'
I shot a glare at him, recalls that before I had followed this skinny male, I was just thinking about a change, something random under the wheather because of the rain.
'Now. Now.' he voiced, I stiffened, too late to realize that his face close to mine. Cold hands touched my chin as he forced me to face him. 'Isn't it your wish?'
I felt a chill as I looked at him. A beautiful face first time I had seen up close which sent a shiver to my spine - something dangerous. 'Now I should remind you, be careful of what you wish for.' his voice trailed off.
A loud explosion occurred, panic rouse in the school as the fire alarm rang.
I turned my attention to the skinny male to find him gone. The moment I had met his gaze I should have turned around - a dangerous appearance. His appearance meant that from now on, my life will be filled with thrill just as I had requested.
