Hello all. It's been one hell of a ride for the past few months but I'm finally back now. This time I'll be writing a new story every week. Love it or hate it... up to you. ;) So starting from now I'll be doing a story. No crap stuff about my life. Just stories. Crap stuff will be in my old blog. XD Alrighty then. Let's get started. For this new story... I'd like to call it... A Boy's Life. Lame I know. But that's all that I could come up with. Haha. So here we go:
Midnight. A time to sleep. To rest. To escape from the hardships of life for a few hours until the first rays of sunlight appear. Not today. In only a few hours my life had come crashing down around me. Ironically, the reason for that is because of a girl. We broke up a few days ago... and yet... my heart still thinks we just broke up today. The pain was excruciating. It was worse than the pain of a knife being embedded into my chest and piercing my heart. No. This pain was a whole different feeling. It was the feeling of empty hollowness with no bottom. A vortex of sadness which threatens to engulf me everyday.
My name's Sebastian and I'm 17. I'm an average looking guy with dark brown eyes and spiky light brown hair. This... is the story of my life.
So here I am. Trying to figure out what went wrong.I looked at the clock. 2.00 a.m and not a feeling of drowsiness yet. Great. I'll probably skip school again the next day anyway. How could I enter my class and stand the sight of her. Even worse.. she sits right behind me. Why did Alyssa have to dump me? Why...?
My eyes slowly closed as I dreamt of her. Rest came along with the image of her long dark black hair. Her seemingly perfect grey eyes which always seemed to have a twinkle in it.... Her soft and fair face... Her scent of lavender perfume. A shining bright ray of light... wait. What's a ray of light doing in my dream? I woke up with a start as my mom pulled the curtains of my window apart. Blinding bright sunlight drifted in. I squinted my eyes to see what my mom was up to.
"Come on mom, can't I sleep a few more hours?" I whined pathetically.
"I will not tolerate anymore of this nonsense young man! You're going to school today whether you like it or not. I don't know what's going on with you these few days but enough is enough. Now hurry up. The bus should be here in a few minutes," she said in a firm tone.
Huhh.. so much for not going to school today. With no choice left I quickly changed and ran for the bus outside my house. Hopefully she wouldn't take the bus today. No such luck. As I got into the bus I looked around. There she was sitting way at the back. We made eye contact for a split second and looked away.
"HEY MAN!!" yelled Brian as he tackled me from the side.
"Ouch man. You gotta stop doing that," I said in a pissed off tone. I wasn't in the mood for one of Brian's games.
"What's up bro? You're usually more sporting than this. Don't tell me you're still sad about..?" he asked with concern.
I glanced at Alyssa for a split second and turned back to Brian. "It's nothing. Just in a bad mood I guess. Hey.. I'm kind of tired. I think I'll just take a nap until we reach school."
He stared at me curiously. He knew it wasn't nothing but decided to let it go for now.
"Alright. Fine by me man."
I closed my eyes and pretended to sleep. Brian was a great friend but he could become annoying at times. He had straight jet black hair and mischievous bright blue eyes. His chiseled physique and angular features made him a hot topic among the girls in my school. He never seemed to be interested in any of them though. I actually think he might be gay. Nah.. I'm just joking. He already has an equally attractive girlfriend. Her name is Isabel and the three of us are sort of like best friends. Well.. Alyssa used to be part of the group too until the break up... She sort of drifted apart from us.
Suddenly the bus stopped. My eyes snapped open. Finally I could get off this bus and enter school. At least there I could hide myself from 'her'. In a flash I jumped off the bus as the doors slid open.
"Hey! Wait up man! You running a marathon or something?"Brian yelled while chasing after me.
"I swear man... if you could run as fast as you did just now during Sports Day you'd receive the gold medal for first place," he said jokingly when he caught up to me.
As we reached the steps to the front doors of our school, Kingston's Secondary School, Isabel jumped the both of us from behind. Isabel had short blonde hair and emerald green eyes. Her face was tanned with playing plenty of sports but that just made her have an exotic pretty look.
"Hiya guys! How're you doing Bass? Still wallowing in your sadness?"she asked cheerfully with a wide grin on her pretty face.
Just so you know.. Bass is my pet name in our group. We call Brian, Bry and Isabel, Bell. We used to call Alyssa, Aly...
"Not so good Bell. Maybe we could change the subject..?"I replied and tried to return a smile but failed miserably.
"You're no fun. Fine then I guess today we'll have to play cheer Bass up day!"she said in the most annoying optimistic tone.
"Can't you just-"I stopped dead in my sentence as I saw Bri and Bell smooching beside me. I shook my head. One minute they were talking to me the next they were kissing. My god. I actually feel lonely now.
All of a sudden I felt someone grab my left hand. I turned around.
"I'm not in the mood for...oh,"I mumbled as I saw who I was talking to.
"Can we talk?"
"Umm.. sure."
What did she want? My heart pounded rapidly in my chest as I stared into her beautiful grey eyes...
It was Alyssa.
