Chapter Five
Gerard’s P.O.V.
I started out my day like usual; got dressed in an old t-shirt and wore my old jacket, slipped on some old black jeans and sort-of half assed brushed my hair. I was currently living with my mom, dad, and my younger brother Mikey in a hotel room; The Hotel Bella Muerte. I’m not a morning person; Mikey is, he’s quiet all the time. Mikey and I thought it would be fun to walk to school so we set out early. Once we got to school, Mikey had to go to P.E. so we parted ways. I had to go to my locker to get my English book. On my way to my locker I saw a girl sitting against the gym, she looked like she was texting. But then she shot a look up at me, I looked straight at the floor. She watched me walk all the way to the quad before I was out of her sight.
Who was this chick? Why would she be looking at me? I’m just some looser who likes to be alone and sits in the back of the class room to draw. I thought about her all English period. I had to find out who she was. She was blonde haired and blue eyed, which I’m usually not attracted to but there was something different about her. Although her appearance was on the happier side there seemed to be something dark that she was hiding. Without even knowing, I drew her in my sketch pad. I closed my books as the bell rang and made my way to a bench to eat. I called Mikey to tell him where to meet me and I told him about her.
“Yeah, I’ve seen her around the school. I’ve talked to her friend Sam, and she joined in. She’s really nice but seems to be hiding something” he told me. “Yeah, when I saw her she seemed to be hiding something from everyone.” I said. I wondered what she could possibly be hiding. The bell rang and Mikey sat for a while we wrapped up our conversation. I had science next and had to run back to my locker to grab my book, as I walked in I saw that the girl that I saw this morning was there. She looked beautiful, her hair was—wait. What am I thinking! I’ve been here for only 3 weeks and I am already crushing on this girl! I don’t even know her. There was something about her that made me want to approach her. As I was walking by her, her pencil box flew across the room. I stood there for a while and looked at it; then I bent down to help pick the pencils up. She grabbed a bunch of pencils and stuffed them into her pencil box.
When she got up she looked up at me. “Hey, here are your pencils…you must draw” I said. She responded nervously, “Oh, uh…y-yeah. I draw a little, I m-mean, not enough to be g-good or anything.” I told her that I draw too and I told her my name. When I got to my seat I looked over at her and she was sitting with a bunch of juniors. That must have sucked, juniors scared the shit outta me. They looked like they were talking about her and she seemed to know it. They were asking her a lot of questions and she gave them answers happily but she seemed to be ticked off by something. Then she looked up and I looked back at my paper.
She looked at me almost the whole class and when she would look away I would stare at her and look at all of her beautiful features. As I was sitting I realized I never learned her name. After class I stopped her as she was walking down the ramp. I asked her what her name was and she simply replied with a, “Diana”. I told her it was nice to meet her and I told her I would see her later. Diana, what a beautiful name that is.
