Search For My Luna

"...And she wondered if he truly meant those words... "I concluded as I wrote in the novel I was working on for my final year in high school literature project.

"Claire! Claire! come have your dinner downstairs, you douche" Henry, my annoying brother called from the kitchen downstairs.

"Mom! Henry's being rude again". "Henry, come over here and apologize to your sister!" Mom scolded as she twisted Henry's ear.

"Mom, it hurts!".

"Apologize to your sister this instant!".

"Okay, okay. I'm korry" He said grinning.

Mom twisted his ear further, "Alright, alright I'm sorry, Claire" He said reluctantly.

"Now let's have dinner".

After dinner, I went back upstairs to my room to complete my assignments and go to bed.

"Ouu, he's so dreamy" I thought as I stared at the BTS's Jungkook poster on my wall as I drifted into slumber.

I woke up at 2:30am from that same nightmare I've been having since I was 6. I'm 18 by the way. "Well since I'm awake I might as well check my socials". My news feed was buzzing, mostly of news about me. Yeah I'm that popular

"Sometimes I marvel at how almost perfect my life is. Almost! It would be so much better if I had a partner (male) who could be up to my standards and even more" Claire fantasized with dreamy eyes staring at her glitter-covered bedroom wall.

A few hours later, Claire stood in front of her human sized mirror swaying her hips in her knee length skirt and applying lip gloss. Her uniform fit her like gloves, a short tie, long sleeved white shirt and a jacket, paired with knee length socks and black doc marten's shoes. "These shoes look amazing! I have such good eyes. Mirror Mirror! I'm definitely the fairest of them all ha-ha" She said giggling and pouting her lips.

Claire and Henry got into the car for the driver to take them. They both live with luxuries they could ever imagine in a city called Riverdale in South Carolina. Claire's mom is a real estate manager and her dad is the CEO of their very own oil company.

Claire is known for her brains, feisty attitude, riches as well as her many a number of talents. She is a class representative and the Head girl of her school. She appears on all of the posters and billboards of Riverdale High School.

The sun casts perfect rays on the pavement as they both walk into the halls while everyone goes quiet as the Queen Bee enters. Henry hurriedly left the scene to avoid nail cuts like the last time he dared to walk with Claire down the hall. He shrilled at the thought of it as he entered his classroom.

Claire's POV

"Ohh the usual, these girls are going to hover all around me again!"

"Move out the way!" I screamed as they all paved a way for me to walk down the halls with them lined up at each side.

"It's SOO nice to have this much power" I giggled as I hopped into class.

"Mister Tony! The answer is 5".

"Correct! a round of applause for Miss Claire. I'd like to assume she's not the only student here" Mr. Tony exclaimed.

The door was knocked and this weird guy came in. I was spotted at the middle front of the class where all the attention points to me, in the two-seater, my bag occupied that space because I don't like hindrances to my comfort. I deserve comfort, especially when I pay... sorry when my Dad pays a bunch for the tuition.

"Hey! you can't just walk in here like that. Why are you just coming to the class when it's a few minutes away from lunch? Detention! Now! "Mr. Tony said angrily

The dude just shrugged with no explainable emotion on his face and left as Mr. Tony mumbled on how difficult he has been all these while.

"Sigh, I wonder how stressed Mr. Tony is, now, why must that weird dude act so weird and mysterious. Ugh puhhleassssseeeeee" I thought to myself as I rolled my eyes in disgust at the dude.

The bell rang shortly after, indicating the end of the class and lunch time. "Claire, come on let's go have lunch" Bianca, one of my besties said waving her hand for me to come over at the door.

"Gimme a sec, I'll catch up with you guys soon" I said.

I spared a few minutes thinking about how cool Mr. Tony looked with his hair slicked back and that tuxedo he was slaying today, he always looked dreamy and young. He looks no more than 4 years older than I am. I wasn't exactly catching feelings for him but he looks like an artwork with billions of dollars price worth, wait, he's priceless! Ugh...

"Hey, Hey, Hey," I looked up to see the weirdo dude calling me.

"What?!"

"Can you stop stomping on my bag?" He said with his cold gaze on me.

"Oh" I said sarcastically rolling my eyes.

"Don't worry; I can get you a lot more. You didn't have to scream my name like a child tch".

"Move!, I pushed him off my way and headed to the cafeteria to meet my friends". I couldn't care less about a stranger. He makes it so hard to like everyone.

"Claireeee! Over here" my best friends sitting by the windows in the cafeteria called.

"Hey guys" I walked over to them with my plate of salad and sea food.

"OMG class was so tense today" Sophie said brushing her hands through her hair and sighing. "I know right, that dude does it every time?"

"By the way..., his name is Lucas Green"

The three girls went on and on about the weirdo in the class

CLAIRE: He's such a douche, acting all mysterious

BIANCA: He may be hiding something!

SOPHIE: He's kind of hot you guys.

Claire and Bianca screamed and laughed so hard.

"Alright, let's just assume he's hot" Claire said laughing so hard in utter sarcasm

"Yeah, let's assume "Bianca concluded with teary eyes from laughing so much.

The bell rang for the next class and the girls began to pack up to leave. All three of them had different classes for the period, so they part ways.

"Ouch! can't you see where you're going?"

"I'm sorry" Lucas, the weird guy said to Claire.

Claire rolled her eyes "As if" as she joined Lucas in picking up her books

She packed her things and turned leaving, Lucas pulled her arm and pinned her to the locker.

"Te gusta mi?" His voice so deep and intriguing they could send chills up your spine.

"Speak English dork!" Claire exclaimed, trying to lessen the tension with her eyes looking down at their close bodies. The hallways were quite empty as it was time for the next class.

"Te gustan los problemas, ¿no?" He sounded angelic with a Spanish accent. Claire kept looking into his eyes and downwards as he leaned further to her face.

He was inches away from her face and Claire's face had already turned red and sweaty.

"Speak en...english" she meekly said with her eyes darting from his eyes to his lips now. They were at very close parameters and Claire has never felt so dominated with a guy before. His aura is electrifying.

"Stupida" Lucas said in disgust and he released her and strutted into the class.

Claire was panting so much; she had to go to the bathroom to wash up.

"Stupid dork, what did he even mean with those nonsense words, I shouldn't have skipped Spanish classes" She thought to herself as she walked into the class.

"Claire, are you okay? ... You seem troubled" Her history teacher asked as she sat down.

"I'm okay ma'am, just a bit tired".

"Tell me when you need to be excused, okay?".

"Okay ma'am"

Claire looked at her side to see a sleeping Lucas; his side profile was very visible.

"That jaw line looks good" She thought to herself. She quickly woke up from her trance, realizing she was just swooning over some weirdo classmate she completely detests.

"Alright class!, you're going to be paired up with someone for a project about a particular mythology topic. You all get different topics to work on and you'll be defending it in 3 weeks, got it?"

"Yes ma!" The whole class responded.

"I'll call out the names now". Claire wasn't really interested as she knew she'd just do the work herself, she couldn't afford to ruin her perfect scores.

"Claire RavenWood and Lucas Green, Werewolf mythology"

"What?!" Lucas and Claire both said at the same time.

"You heard me" the history teacher shouted back. They both looked at each other sighing and rolling their eyes.

When the class ended, Lucas just slept off again and Claire moved closer to his desk and glared at him as she thought skeptically..."I can't work with this lazy, nonchalant person, I have to change partners"

"I couldn't care less" Lucas mumbled in his sleep.

"Go find someone else and stop disturbing my sleep! ugh. You can even do it yourself for all I care, please leave"

"Ugh, so annoying "Claire hissed and left the class banging the door on her way out. The class was startled and one of the girls said "Look at that ungrateful bitch, she got such a hot shot as a partner and she's still making a fuss".

She leaned in to Lucas's table so Lucas might hear her. "He's so handsome, we would look so perfect together "

Lucas groaned and turned his head to the other side. He was embarrassed for the girl in her stead.

"So, I really can't?"

"Yes, Claire my dear, you can't change partners. This assessment is really important, I'm telling you right now to overlook your differences and ace this, okay?" The teacher said enthusiastically

"Yes ma" Claire reluctantly agreed and snail walked to the class

"Sigh, I might as well begin myself" Claire sighed. Lucas handed over a card.

"Come over at 4pm tomorrow, I have something that you might find useful" he said half-awake and doubtful. He was resting his head on his arm folded on the desk, facing Claire at his left.

"Wowww" she exclaimed sarcastically. "I'm SOO not doing this with you." With that, she stood up and left, flinging her long hair back.

"Your loss" He said as she turned around, so did the other students. Most of them never heard his voice that loud.

Not caring one bit about the audience, he stood up and walked right past her as he still had detention to go for.
