But I Swear, I
Thought You Were Perfect
Chapter 3~ First Days
Now that you know the basics about me and Drake, I can finally
start to tell you my story. It starts on the first day of Junior
year, back to school now that summer is over. The first day is
filled with plenty of screaming from the girls excited to see the
friends they literally just saw last weekend, but haven't
seen in ''forever''. Manuevering my way through
embracing couples, annoying screamers, and the assorted other
people I go to school with, I finally make it to the wall behind
the gym where I sit with Drake everyday. He isn't there yet,
so I take out a notebook and keep a tally of how many people
annoy me on the first day back. School hasn't even started
yet and the number has already hit 27.
Drake sits down next to me about five minutes later with two hot
chocolates and some donuts.
Drake: Good
morning Miss Char, guess who brought you a delicious treat this
morning?
Me: Hmmm I dunno, Johnny maybe?
Johnny is friends
with Drake and me, he's a Sophomore though so sometimes we
call him Little Johnny.
Drake: Nope Char,
it's meee. You're a terrible guesser, maybe I
shouldn't share my delicious donuts with
you.
I swear Drake gets
more cheeky every day.
Me: Well then I
guess I'll just have to add you to my list of people who
annoyed me on the first day if you're gonna be rude.
Drake: Pshh come on Char, you know you love me. And donuts.
Me: Well I do love donuts.
We spent the next
half hour just eat and catching up about whatever we had missed
with eachother over the weekend. Then the bell rang for school to
start and Drake and I walked over to our first class of the day,
art.
As soon as I walked in the room, the first thing I saw was
him. Brian was in the same art class and me and
Drake. I didn't realize that I had held my breath, until
Drake asked if I was okay. I was a little stunned that Brian was
in our class and I felt like I couldn't
move.
Drake: Hey, Char,
wher do you wanna sit?
Me: Um, I-I don't know, wherever you want is
fine.
I think Drake
must've figured out by now that I have a thing for Brian, he
is my best friend after all. He just kind of understands things
without me having to tell him
sometimes.
Drake: Come on Char, let's go sit near
your boyfriend.
Me: Drake, he is not my boyfriend now shut up before her
hears you.
Drake: Aww, let's go sit near him Char
Char.
Without giving me a chance to answer, Drake
picked me up and put me in the seat across from Brian, and he sat
next to me. My heart was beating madly, I was really nervous. And
then sometine I never would've guessed could happen, he
talked to me.
Brian: Hey, cool hair.
Drake: Thaaaanks, me and Char Char do our hair together,
don't we look cuuute?
Sometimes I can't stand this
kid.
Me:
Thanks, I'm Charlotte, but you can call me Char if you want,
and that loser is Drake.
Drake: Char Char don't be rude.
Brian: That's a nice name, I like it. Char and Drake, nice
ring to it. If you don't mind me getting kind of personal,
are you guys dating?
Oh, great. Just great. He finally talks to
me, and he things I'm dating Drake. This is just fantastic.
Not.
I'm sorry I haven't had a
chance to write
lately, I've been really busy with school.
I prefer to write the speaking parts with
their names in front so it's easier to read
and I don't have to do different POVs for
each chapter. Let me know what you think,
any feedback is appreciated, I'll post more
soon! And if you aren't already on the
notification list and you'd like to be added,
just let me know. Thanks for reading
