"BRING!"
"HEY EVERYONE! SCHOOL'S OUT!" Sidon screamed, throwing his hands in the air, victoriously, as the boys crowded around him shouting "OI OI OI"
"Settle down, kids! The bell doesn't dismiss you- I do." Said professor Robbie, crossing his arms with a stern look. The hyped up boys were not amused, they started booing at him. Professor Robbie rolled his eyes "Glad to see you're enthusiastic for summer... maybe you'd enjoy summer school?" the teacher smirked.
That shut Sidon and the gang up, they immediately sported poker faces. Robbie clapped his hands "Right! I hope you have a great summer, class! I myself am looking forward to going to Australia! I hope to see you all when you're Juniors!" He waved goodbye, opening the door for the running students.
The boys ran out, resuming their cult chant "OI OI OI" could be heard throughout the whole school. Their shenanigans would never end.
Y/N crammed her messy study guide into her overstuffed, baby blue backpack and hastily flung it over her shoulder, unzipped. She shoved her pen into her pocket and almost knocked her phone off the table, trying to pick it up.
She sighed, finally walking out of the classroom and said a last goodbye to Professor Robbie. She opened up her phone and pretended to be engrossed in it as she walked through a place worse than hell: A High school Hallway.
Y/N pretended like she had better things to do on her phone, avoiding the loud kids swarming all around her. The disgusting scent of sweat and cologne wafted in the air around her amidst the laughter. She cast her gaze down to her feet, keeping her head low. This was Highschool... it was practically a gang.
Her phone lit up as she got a text from Mipha.
Mipha: Y/NNNNNN Where are you???
Y/N smiled, trying not to drop her phone, as she typed a swift answer at the same time as trying not to bump into anyone. Easier said than done.
Y/N: Ugh! Ever heard of patience?
Mipha: No? Who's patience?
Y/N: What is it this time?
Mipha: I'm at the usual spot
Mipha: And....
Y/N: Yes?
Mipha: He's LOOKING at me!!
Y/N rolled her eyes in amusement. Everyone knew who "He" was, it was the quietest boy at school, Link. Y/N had to admit, he looked pretty okay, but Link kind of freaked her out. That kid sat at lunch alone except for the occasional lunch with her stepbrother, Revali, or Sidon.
And for some reason, Revali seemed to hate his guts. He always thought Link was challenging him or something. Link was pretty popular with "Da Boyz" but he preffered to stay alone.
Y/N: He probs likes u
Mipha: WHAT IF HE DOESN'T
Y/N: idk, man, I'm just here for the graduation certificate
Mipha: Are you here?
Y/N: almost... typing while walking is hard yk
Mipha: HE'S LOOKING AT ME AGAIN
Y/N: Aight, aight... I'm outside now
Y/N rolled her eyes again, if Mipha really wanted to be a doctor- she'd better get a hold of herself. Y/N switched her phone off, she was almost down the staircase outside the school. Just as she did she bumped into someone's shoulder.
She quickly apologised "I'm sorr-EEE!" her voice came out in a yelp at the end when she saw who she'd just bumped into... 'oh no...' Y/N thought to herself 'It's school shooter! What do I do?!' she dipped her head awkwardly.
Link was leaning against the staircase, headphones on his head, looking at her intently. Y/N grimaced 'this is awkward....' she decided to say something to make it less awkward for the both of them "Uh, I hope you have a great summer, Link." she flashed him an uncertain smile. Link cleared his throat and met her eyes, taking off his headphones "Um... You too, Y/N." his voice was husky, as if he hadn't used it in years, which was probably the case.
Y/N clenched and unclenched her hands "Heh..." she laughed nervously "I'll see you around, then." she gave him a tight wave, Link shoved his hands deep into his pockets "Yeah, you too..." he pulled his headphones back over his head, offering her a wobbly smile.
Y/N turned and walked towards Mipha. She widened her eyes and gave Mipha 'The look' that all highschool girls use on their friends every five minutes. You know, the look! C'mon the way you look at your friend when someone else has a gen z moment! Like an embarrassing voice crack, flirting... you know what I mean.
Mipha smiled, seeing her friend "What was that all about? You don't like him- do you?!" she shook Y/N by the shoulders. Y/N groaned "What the heck?! Nah, fam!" she then complained "Omygosh, that was so awkward! Why do you even like school shooter?" she gave Mipha a pointed look.
Mipha was crazy around her, yet in front of everyone else she was shy and kind. To Y/N she was like a rabbid raccoon who became sugar high at 2am whilst being live on twitch, sending snaps to 5 different raccoons... okay- that was oddly specific.
Mipha let go and smiled dreamily amidst the chaos in the school yard "His eyes are sooo pretty! He's nice, he's on the swim team... And come on- who doesn't like a shy one?" she nudged Y/N who retorted "I prefer smart ones." she adjusted her uniform skirt "I can't wait to get out of this uniform!" Mipha complained, running a hand through her hair.
"How's my hair? 1-10?" She asked, glancing in Link's direction before quickly looking back. Y/N sucked in a breath, not this again "Ugh... It's fine, about a 7." she said loftily. Mipha panicked, having a mini mental break down "A SEVEN? JUST A SEVEN?!"
"Jeez! Chill bruh, I need to go." Y/N pocketed her phone, waving bye to her friend, Mipha promptly pulled her back "Go? Already?! WHERE?!" she asked "Oh, are you going to that old record shop again?"
"It's called Killton's Vinyls, and yeah! I'll see you this weekend!" Y/N replied, grinning. Mipha gave her a death stare "Okay- fine! 10am. Tomorrow. Starbuck's. Be there or karma will come for you." Mipha gave her a sweet smile. Y/N walked away, shaking her head.
High school was really something else.
