The Private Academy: Lumity story

6. surprisingly it's not that bad...

(LUZES POV)

I'd stepped into the huge ass school thinking it's full to the brim with prestigious rich bitches but all I see is a group- like 20 kids- all dressed up lazily with dyed hair. I turn to Vee her natural blue hair strung in faded strands across her pinned back hair, I nudge her roughly and tease

"Hey look you're not alone Vee! This place rocks already"

Vee scowls as she texts her girlfriend maya, her eyes glued to the screen. One of the older kids call out to vee and me- my hair highlighted with light magenta pink in an almost incognito way only seen when I mess with my hair.

"Nice hair kid! Love the colors!"

Vee finally looks up and smiles, they wave us over and we join them gladly.
Leaning against the wall my button-up sweater slung over my shoulder lazily a really emo girl or atleast I thought they were a girl until they corrected me by saying 'they' smirks at my lame ass attempt at socializing

"I like your attitude kid! oh and my names dean just so we don't call eachother kid and dude alot"

They say with that cheezy smirk, I chuckle lightly and reply with a flat uninterested tone.

"Luz- and you're pretty badass yourself"

Dean's smile widens obviously not reading my flat tone, they start flirting with me.

"We should totally chill sometime I bet we could totally hit it off"

They add in a whisper against my ear

"If you understand me.. hm??"

My spine shivers in discomfort, I look at dean a heavy level of resistance in my following tone, vee looks at me obviously hearing dean her expression just as uncomfortable.

"Sorry dean..thank you for the offer and all but I'm taken... and I'm not comfortable with the idea of polyamorous relationships or your- onward intentions"

I then walk down to my common room, reading the board to see nothing indicating dean is in this one- and I was right. Vee sits next to me in one of the open armchairs, her tone very uncomfortable with the situation involving dean as she says

"Did a held back nineteen year old just- ask to get laid...??"

One of the girls from earlier scoots a small round stool to us and sits down, she purses her lips and sighs

"Held back TWENTY year old- sorry about them.. Luz was it??"

I nod once and run my fingers through my hair in discomfort to the memory

"I'm amber...and I promise I won't be a sexual deviant and pedo like dean since I'm almost 17 n all-... and quite taken"

I sigh relieved to the fact of someone in my age group, amber laughs gently.

"Finally someone I can relate to- no offense Vee"

Vee shakes her head disappointed but chuckles, amber running a loose strand of hair behind her ear as she looks at my phone on amity's chat
