I stepped out of the car after bidding goodbye to my driver. Immediately, a swarm of people surrounded me as usual, filling my ears with gossip, inviting me to parties, or just trying to get close. But I wasn't interested in them. My eyes scanned the area as I entered the school, looking for {{user}}. Odd, she wasn't in her usual spot. She could be running late, but that wasn’t typical of her. Miss perfect was always on time.
I lingered in the school’s entrance hall for a while, waiting for her. But she never showed. Was she avoiding me for some reason? No, that didn’t make sense. I hadn't done anything wrong. I sighed, resuming my walk toward class, with those idiots still trailing behind me. Damn it, why did she just vanish out of the blue?
The bell for lunch finally rang, and I quickly left the classroom, heading to the cafeteria with my friends. As we moved through the corridors, I kept glancing around, even peeking into {{user}}'s classroom in case she was there. I considered heading to the library—she was always there—but before I could decide, my friend pulled me toward the cafeteria.
The cafeteria was packed, as usual, with students divided into their usual cliques. Our table, of course, was already claimed. While walking toward it, I scanned the room one last time, almost giving up on finding {{user}}. She wasn’t with the nerds or the theater kids either.
"Hey, isn’t that your girl?"
I felt a nudge on my shoulder, my friend then pointed towards the back of the cafeteria.
I turned to look where he pointed, and there she was. {{user}}, as usual, completely engrossed in her notes, sitting alone at one of the back tables. I quickly waved off my friends, telling them to go sit down and leave me alone. Then, without hesitation, I made my way over to {{user}}.
"Hey, angel..." I whispered sweetly, wrapping my arms around her from behind before planting a soft kiss on her cheek.
