Asad
I took my backpack from my study table and grabbed an apple from the table and took my car keys and left the house. My parents were already gone. They were hardly ever home these days some big case that was taking most of their time. In my entire 17 years I had never, never had a family dinner let alone breakfast or lunch. It was always me and my caretaker Maria.
I reached my school it was the beginning of the session and students were pouring in pulling their luggage along. I parked my car in the school garage and took out my luggage from the trunk and set off for the boys' dormitory. My parents and I live in the same city but still they sent me off to a boarding school telling me that this the best I could get even when the best private school of the city was right beside our house.
My friends never understood my parents and neither could I, ever. Shaking these thoughts out of my mind I entered my room. There were some perks of being the school head boy after all! I did not get to share my room with anyone else. After settling my luggage and changing into my uniform I set out to help the new students.
I was heading towards the main gate when I saw her. She looked totally out of place here in Athena International. With her cropped off-the-shoulder tank top which showed her navel and navel piercing the kohl rimmed eyes and the black nail paint. Complete with the check skirt, fishnet stockings and combat boots. She looked like Avril Lavigne, minus the blonde hair and blue eyes.
She was fingering her backpack's strap and was looking with disgust at the uniform of the girls. Even with all the punk look she had done nothing to her hair except a midnight blue streak which stood out on her jet black straight hair. She turned and saw me staring at her, she raised her eyebrows and I turned around.
I had to stay away from her, this girl screamed trouble.
*~OoO~*

"Go to hell!" I screamed from my room and stomped my foot for an extra effect, my new foster home and foster parents were quite rich and wanted me to go to some Athena Shitty International boarding school! Boarding school? Yeah right!
My foster mother, Noor knocked on my door gently and asked me to come out and I spoke a few colorful words as a reply and she left with a heavy sigh. I breathed out softly so far they were the best foster parents I'd got and were even sending me to some school, which by the name of it reeked of money.
I shook my head and packed my bags, I had a few clothes even though Noor had insisted that I buy something nice (translation something which had pink and no fishnet or black) I refused telling her that I was perfectly fine with whatever I had. I took my bags and went downstairs. Noor and her husband Jawed's face instantly shone, they were happy.
I rolled my eyes and Jawed took my luggage and started talking about the school with great enthusiasm apparently Noor and Jawed both had attended the same school. We reached the school after 5 long hours, and the school was beautiful would be the understatement of the decade. There were this huge wrought iron gate and a gravel driveway which led to a huge Victorian style building. Infront of the building was a fountain, in the middle of the fountain stood Athena with an owl perched on her shoulder.
I got down and Jawed went to the main building to fill the rest of the forms. I stood in the driveway and saw the girls, they were wearing proper box-pleated skirts with oxford shirts complete with tights and a pair of loafers or flats. Goodness! In that particular moment I saw him, he was looking at me as if I was some science experiment. He was handsome it seemed as the girls were swooning around him but he barely noticed them.
He was wearing a white shirt with black trousers and a navy blue blazer with the emblem of the school pinned neatly on the breast pocket, and a 'head boy' badge was pinned to his right breast pocket.
This guy looked like a typical nerd, and was definitely not my type.
