Jayson Preston's Story

Jayson Preston

---

Jayson had woken to a loud knock on her door. "Jayson wake up ro you'll be late for school." Jayso sat up immediately after hearing her mother speak. "Alright mom I'm up." she replied and hurried to the bathroom. Within an hour she had showered, brushed her teeth, and fixed her hair. She rushed down stairs seeing she was running late like usual. She hurriedly grabbed the piece of toast her mother made and hurried out the door after bidding farewell to her mother. Jayson rushed to school all the while trying to eat. She made it to school only a few minutes late this morning, 'that's better than my usual timing' she thought as she walked to class just as the teacher called her name for role-call. "I'm here." she stated and headed for the back of the room like usual, ignoring the odd looks thrown at her. "Late as usal miss preston." the teacher stated looking over at her. "Gomen sensei." she said and sat down trying tp refrain from embarassing herself any further.

She leaned in her chair and sighed lightly. Today she was lucky she wasn't given detention for her tardiness. Jayson took out her notebook but was a bit out of it this morning. She stayed up late last night writing down lyrics that were stuck in her head and now she was paying for it by now feeling sleepy. She lied her head on her arms which were on the desk and soon dozed off not able to help it.

When Jayson awoke it was the end of class and she had a pink slip next to her arm on the desk. she sighed before taking the pink slip and heading to her class. She was five minutes late to class but she already had detention so it couldn't get much worse. When she got to her next class she sat down next to someone she didn't really know personally but knew of him. She knew Ekaki was infamous for flirting with many. Jayson had never spoken to him and he had never spoken to her so that's why she didn't know him but then aain she didn't really know anyone personally in the school as she was never liked by them for whatever reason and is often bullied by them so she guessed thats why Ekaki never bothered to try and flirt with her.

First period went by like a blast. Unfortunately, that was the class where there were not many females, and the ones he saw were a bit...well... taken, you could say? Most were already with their boyfriend, and the others were in their own little groups. Not to mention his first period teacher was probably the most strict in the whole entire high school. Sure, he was frightened of her,e specially that time he got a detention for trying to flirt during class. It was the only reason why he stayed quiet and actually focused in that class. In others though.... things were different.

Finally, second period approached, and this time, things were different. Ekaki first took his seat, kicking back since his teacher took pity on him, or maybe its because she got used to his off behavior and just let him be himself, since no matter what she did, it never seemed to have worked, in any ways.

While he let out a loud an obnoxious yawn, he noticed that someone took a seat next to him, unlike most people who never did. Mostly, that was because he was such a flirt that it scared the girls off, or disgusted them, and the guys just hated him because he was... well... a flirt. Although his tactics never worked, all the males just didn't like him because he took the attention of more girls than them.

Seeing someone actually seat them self on his side actually surprised him, especially since it was a female. Unlike most times when he looked at a female with teasing eyes and eyes that showed how immature he was, he actually took interest in this one, compared to other females.

"You're..." Ekeki took a while to try and recall the name, knowing perhaps one too many of them, so for a while, he just studied her, and ran through all the names he could remember before finally remembering. Because it came to him so suddenly, he stood up, suddenly, and almost yelled at the top of his lungs, though it was pretty loud, "Ah! You're Jayson! Jayson, isn't that right?"

Although he looked quite matured when she sat herself down next to him, the immaturity and childish side to him came again. The students around him stared at the two, including the teacher who was in the middle of her reading for teaching. Ekaki didn't really care. It was his own way of gaining attention. But really, he mostly just ignored all the stares he got, "You're quite pretty, Jayson~ Hey hey, do you have a boyfriend? Hmm?"

It was Ekaki's usual approach on any female, but although he didn't show the least bit of signs of it that time, but when she first sat down, he did take a sudden interest in her. Perhaps it wasn't anything romantic or friendship like at first, but it was a type of interest he didn't see in most people. Ekaki really didn't like a lot of people honestly, but he covered it all with a smile. He also didn't find a lot of people interesting, even after knowing them for a long time. That wasn't the case with this girl though. Something was... off, or different. He couldn't put his finger on it, but it was true.

Jayson was sitting quietly when she heard the male next to her speak to her. She was about to reply when suddenly he had stood up and pratically yelled her name. She sighed before nodding. "Yes my name is Jayson." she spoke lowly as to not draw anymore attention to herself. His last question got her to raise an eyebrow. "Thanks I guess and no I do not nor do I care to have a boyfriend right now." she kept her usual nonchalant composure. This boy seemed different from others but she hadn't really interacted with any of the other members of the student body. So she isn't one to just up and talk to them.

What shocked her most about this boy was his gaul, loudness, and his actions. Jayson hadn't met anyone who has acted such a way but it was different and different in a good way. She could already see he didn't seem like anyone else in school she had seen so that was also a plus to her.
