Chapter 1
“And lastly, Amity Blight and Luz Noceda!”
Luz’s head shot up at the mention of her name, she turned to Amity who just looked at her with disgust
“No way, I’m going with Boscha” Amity said, giving the teacher a death stare.
“Sorry Ams but me and Willow are already a pair, and i wouldn’t dare go against my dear teachers word” Boscha said, batting her eyelids at Amity while she wrapped her arm around Willow waist.
“Boscha i swear to god if you don’t get your ass over here right now” Amity demanded, pointing at the seat next to her. Boscha just stuck out her tongue.
Amity stood up out of her seat, staring at Boscha.
Luz stiffened, she knew things could get ugly if Boscha kept teasing Amity. God why couldn’t the teacher just let people choose who they partnered with, that would’ve made things so much easier for everyone.
“Girls that is quite enough! Ms Blight you will do your assignment with Luz and that is final! if I hear another word out of you two your both going straight to Mr Belos’ office, am i clear?” The teacher said, her face a frown.
“Yes miss” Boscha stated, while Amity just grunted,
“Good. Now, you may discuss with your partner what you’ll be doing for your project”
All around the classroom people started moving their chairs, soon enough idle chatter filled the room.
Luz scooted her chair over to Amity’s desk, the girl snarled at her. Luz pulled back a bit, giving space between the two.
“S-so, what do you think we should do our assignment on? I was thinking we-“
“I don’t care, we’ll do whatever’s the easiest” Amity said, not paying attention,
“Oh well in that case maybe we could do an assignment on Romeo and Juliets romance! it’s simple enough and we can get a good score for it! of course if you want we could do something else...” Luz said, looking at her feet
“Yeah that’s fine”
“......”
“C-cool! when are you free? we can arrange to meet up some time this week or next to plan out how we’re gonna do this?”
“I have Grudby most days of the week, but i’m free on Saturday” Amity said, staring at her nails.
“o-oh ok! well here’s my phone number, just send me a text or call me when your free and we can set a time to work on our assignment!”
“......”
“ok, bye” and with that amity stood up and left the classroom.
Luz just watched as she left, completely shook by how calmly the girl just left the class before it finished,
and not a minute later the bell rang. the scraping of chairs was heard and people started to head out.
“Bye Luz, see ya in Maths!” Willow waved as she walked through the door,
“See ya!” Luz waved back, then she felt a tap on her back.
“Hey Pixie-cut” Boscha said, Luz quickly turned around, surprised to see Amity’s second in command talking to her,
“oh hey boscha!” Luz said in an overly happy tone, she was desperately trying not to get in another persons bad side,
“um, don’t worry about Amity, i know she seems cold and rude but she’s just not used to talking to to people, so please don’t be to harsh on her” Boscha said, eyeing luz carefully
Luz stared at Boscha with wide eyes
“what?? surprised i’m not a total bitch?” Boscha said playfully
“no of course not!! it’s just i didn’t expect YOU to talk to me and try to convince me Amity isn’t a ruthless monster!”
“Ruthless monster-? no way! she’s just a dopey idiot who loves grudby!”
“oh i’m sorry Boscha, i wasn’t trying to offend her” Luz said,
“oh don’t worry about it!! i know you don’t mean harm!”
The bell rings again, signaling the start of their next class,
“SHIT” Boscha screams, “gotta go, nice talking to yeah Pixie!” she yells as she sprints down the hall.
Luz too, starts sprinting down the halls like a shes in a marathon.
