"I love you"

The words everyone wants to hear, The words being whispered in my ear as I sleep, being said by a familiar voice, I still remember what those words mean but I no longer believe in them. The butterflies you get in your stomach when the words are directed towards you is amazing, the feeling of always having that person to rely on for everything, that is until you realize those words did not actually mean anything, and everything starts falling apart in your head because as much as you want to hate that person for lying to you... you just can't.

As I continue dreaming, I start hearing a loud ringing until my eyes open and I hit my alarm clock. Despite the bright sunlight shining through my window the day still feels gloomy. This will be my first day at this new school and deep down I feel like I should be excited but as I get ready and eat breakfast there is no way to describe how I am feeling, It is not the feeling of excitement so it must be me just not caring. As I take those first few steps in this new environment I hear someone behind me,

"Good morning Robby"

Being said in an energetic manner.

As I turned around there was Olivia walking towards me, everything around her just seemed so much more bright and lively. Her silky long red hair, her crimson red eyes and a slender body that gave her an elegant look. To put it simply, being around her always made me happy, I could not stop the smile on my face as i opened my mouth and replied to her,

"Good morning Olivia"

"You excited for your first day?"

"I would not call it excitement exactly but I am somewhat looking forward to the day"

As Olivia and me made it to the front of our classroom we see Harry, a 4th year at the school and my childhood friend, he was sitting in our class despite the fact the bell was about to ring. The entire class was chattering on the first day about this Christmas dance that was going  to happen, this would be odd to talk about since we were in September and the dance was not until December but the Fact that Chloe was confirmed to perform at the dance is what had people talking and so excited about it. Chloe is a 4th year at my old school and is popular in our town for her singing and everyone has high expectations in her that she will make it big after high-school, She also grew up with me and Harry, but after all she has done to me I do not even consider her a simple friend. I feel a slap on my back and lose my train of thought as Harry said, 

"It's cool to finally have you in the same school as me, just forget about everything that happened last year and just enjoy this year bud"

I had a small smirk on my face before replying,

"Yeah, after all this is our last year together since you will be leaving for college after this school year"

Harry started scratching behind his head while laughing,

"Too bad you had to repeat the 3rd year or we could have went to college together"

As he said this, I could see on his face that he was genuinely sad that we could not go to college together, his usual cool look that many girls melt over was exchanged for a pathetic look with a forced smile on his face. The bell rang and Harry rushed out of the classroom but not before telling me,

"Have a fun day, just remember me and Olivia will always have your back if you need anything"

Harry left the class and his words stuck with me, can I actually rely on people anymore? I thought to myself. Olivia pulled me back to earth.

"We need to get to our seats now Robby, class is starting "

The usual look of her made me quickly realize there is nothing for me to worry about. I sat down in my seat next to the window and like any other school day teachers came in and out of the classroom, since it was the first day not much happened besides introductions. Lunch came around and me, Harry and Olivia all sat at a table together, after some joking around at the table Harry said,

"It seems everyone is looking forward to Chloe's performance at the Christmas dance"

I paused for a while before replying, 

"Yeah, it seems they are"

Olivia then contributed by asking,

"Do you plan on going? I mean it is understandable if you do not go"

"I don't think I can bring myself to go even if I wanted to"

"Oh"

When Olivia said this she seemed to have a bit of a disappointed look on her face

I could not bring myself to say anything else for the rest of the lunch break and before I noticed it was already over and we were back in the classroom following the same structure as the first half of the day. The sky was now red as I looked outside the window and heard the bell ring and the teacher dismiss us. Before I could leave the classroom I hear Olivia call out to me

"You wanna walk home together?"

Olivia lived across the street from my house so I saw no problem.

"Sure... lets go"

While walking home my eyes widen with anger as I see Chloe and her boyfriend walking towards me and Olivia, as we passed each other I noticed Chloe look at me with a smug look on her face and giggled, this causes my mind to go blank with anger as I stand in place for a while before turning around. I feel Olivia grab my hand to stop me.

"Don't do it... please"

 

Author note: I already have many ideas on how to continue this so if you all enjoy this I can have the next chapter out in no time :)
