Aqua.
2042, the year we became seniors of Clocspeacosta High, watching her from afar became to troublesome after a couple of weeks so i started talking to her after that we became great friends. Just as she walks past my class, she looks in and her eyes, the same shade as her name, shine brightly as they glisten from the two suns. Her hair swishes as she walks down the corridors and enter her classroom. If only she'll look at me.
I go to my seat and stare through the window, I've been looking at the same flower for the past week, every time I sit here. It's blue center and its Yellow petals all remind me of her. The physics teacher just walked in, so i guess i can sleep.
I awake to find long blonde hair flowing over my head. I look up and find her smiling down at me. "We all know you are an ace at physics but you can't fall asleep, its rude to the teacher" She steps back and leans on the chair behind her. "Aqua, what are you doing here?" My voice quivers as I say her name and she giggles "No reason, is it against Clocspeacosta law to see a friend?" She tilts her head and her hair falls to the side like a waterfall. Subconsciously I reach out at her hair and caress it. "...Silky"
She blinks, and leans down towards me, I tilt my head upwards, this time she must have seen me as a guy, and she headbutts me. Embarrassed I put my head back on the desk "why, ugh..." I mumble into the table. I turn my head and look out the window to see the news blimp with news that a new hand phone has taken the technology word by storm. "Tch, what so amazing about that!" She tugs my hair "You gonna walk me home or what?" I get up and pick up my bag. We walk out together, her holding my bag strap as usual.
"Ar!" She calls as we leave the building "Can we go to get something to eat today?" I nod and continue walking, about half a mile gone i stop and turn to her. She looks shocked and confused. " I have a really important question to ask you" she tilts her head in a questionable manner. " If I, metaphorically speaking, were to say i like you what would you say?" She stammers "I-I think that it wo-would be pretty good to go out ah erm metaphorically speaking of course" I cant believe it this maybe my shortest ever love story but do crushes come with a use by date?! This is my chance!
I grab her by the shoulders "Aqua, I like you, a lot and i don't mean like how a bee needs flowers but like how the emerald rivers need the Ruby Riverbanks, okay I'm not making sense but just go out with me" She twirls her hair and looks at me dead in the eyes and steps closer. "Of course i will silly! Argo you're really dense sometimes" She tip toes and leans her head towards me, this time I'm ready for the hit, but she kisses me on the lips and skips way. I go bright red, maybe i wasn't quite ready for that. " Argo make sure you're prepared for the physics exam next week, it'll be really awkward if you got it wrong!" She beams at me and continues to skip home.
I squat down to the floor, drop my bag and let out a sigh of relief..."finally".
