His Fated Luna

Chapter 1 - Golden-eyed Boy

I plopped down on my new bed and kicked my shoes off into the air, as I felt a sharp pain in my a*s.

"Ow!" I yelped and turned on my side, my hand instinctively reaching for whatever it was that had stabbed my butt. A small safety pin made contact with my fingers and I brought it before my eyes, glaring at it. The frustration kicked in, and I broke the poor pin into two pieces before I threw them across the room, and lied down on my back again, this time very comfortably.

"I swear unpacking is tougher than packing itself," I groaned to myself, closing my eyes.

I was finally settled in my new home in the large, expensive city of Beckley, thanks to the scholarship I was offered by the most posh school there, Beckley High. I was basically a great student, and those who didn't know how badly I sucked at sports, even thought of me as an all rounder. I was a genius when it came to studies, amazing at singing, art, dancing and even acting. But I couldn't play sports to save my life.

My brothers loved to tease me about it, and according to them I was also the dumbest girl they'd ever came across. That was because I was actually a bit stupid when it came to important life and death matters, my intelligence limited to only academics. I always saw that as a really bad and frustrating quality, but my mom liked to console me by saying that I was just too good a person myself and thus I thought everyone in this world was good. And hence, my parents were really afraid and worried when they found out that I wanted to move to Beckley. Alone.

They had tried their best to convince me to stay in my hometown and go to another school over there but I refused. My mom even offered to come with me to Beckley, but I wasn't going to be a b***h and separate her from my dad, who had his business in our hometown. My brothers went to college over there and thus they too couldn't accompany me, although one of them, Jason, had tried his level best to get transferred to a college in Beckley. Yes, I had an overprotective family, but that was very much expected, given I was the youngest child and an only daughter.

My phone buzzed breaking me out of my thoughts and I picked it up to check whose text it was.

Babe 

Reached Beckley safe and sound?

I smiled to myself at my boyfriend's concern, yet I felt heartbroken on the inside. Another thing I had to sacrifice to go to Beckley High was my time with the best boyfriend in the whole wide world. Arthur was the most amazing guy I had ever met. He was a nerd, with his round glasses and not so picture perfect body, but he was my nerd. He was absolutely adorable, with blue eyes and short brown hair, and his mesmerizing, million dollar smile. But most of all, he loved me. And he loved me enough to let me go away from him, just so I could pursue my dreams. He trusted me, and that mattered to me more than anything else in this world.

Me

Yes, nerdy.  I miss you already :'(

His reply was almost instant.

Babe 

I miss you more. But don't worry, we will Skype every-day and I promise I'll call you every single day.

Me

I know. I'll ttyl, I'm really very tired due to all the travelling and the unpacking. Especially, the unpacking. So I'll be going to sleep now.

Babe 

Okay baby, good night. Don't forget to dream of me ;)

Me

Good night, but I will dream of food.

Babe 

:'(

I chuckled at his reply and plugged my phone in for charging, switching it off. I had already informed my parents, brothers, and all my friends that I had reached the house safely and thus no one was going to be worried if my phone was switched off.

It was weird honestly, being away from everything I knew and living alone in a house that didn't belong to me. I was staying at my Uncle's old place, who used to live in Beckley before he moved away to California. He had given us the keys for safekeeping as Beckley wasn't that far away a city from our hometown. When I decided to get transferred to Beckley High, we asked him if I could stay at his place and fortunately he agreed. He just asked me not to break anything, and I wasn't a very clumsy person so that wouldn't be a problem.

I went to the bathroom, did my business and brushed my teeth before taking a long, warm shower in order to ease my nerves. I had never thought I'd ever have to be away from the people I had lived my entire life with, but Beckley High had this weird attraction to it, it was as if it was magically pulling me towards itself. I just felt that I had to be there, no matter what, like I was supposed to be there, even if I had to leave behind everything I had ever known. And thus there I was, getting ready to face my new life.

I walked outside the bathroom with just a towel around myself and then changed into my warm, comfortable pajamas. Then I combed my wet hair and finally lied down on the soft bed, resting my head on my cuddly pillow and turned the lamp off before I drifted off into a peaceful slumber.

I again had the same dream that I'd been having since weeks, about the golden-eyed guy, and again, I woke up with a jolt, the extremely loud song bombarding my thoughts and my peaceful slumber. I've always loved Sorry but the way it starts so suddenly annoyed me like anything, thus it always managed to wake me up no matter how deep my sleep was. I reached for my phone and turned the alarm off, also unplugging my phone as it was now fully charged. I let out a loud yawn, covering my mouth with the back of my hand and got off the bed making my way inside the washroom.

After washing my face, brushing my teeth and making my bed, my mind drifted to the the weird dream I had been having since a few months. I personally found it really uncanny and creepy, and the fact that I felt so relaxed with a guy who was anything but human always made me feel uneasy, even if it happened in a mere dream. If I'd describe it to anyone, they'd call it a nightmare, yet it never did feel like one. It always felt relaxing and extremely peaceful, like I was in a place where I belonged. However I was aware that if it were to happen in real life, I'd piss my pants and run in the opposite direction, not glancing back.

The only person I had told about my dream was Rebecca, my bestfriend since childhood. She was like a sister to me, we had always been inseparable, well, until I decided to move to Beckley. She was the one I'd miss the most, as she was my other half, the only person who truly understood me. She was the only one who would know what I was feeling, the only one who would know when I was genuinely happy and when I was pretending, she could tell just by a look. It always felt like she could read my mind.

I changed into a tight black, sleeveless crop top, along with a purple leather jacket over it (the buttons of which I left undone), and dark jeans that were ripped at the knees and thighs, finishing the outfit off with black converse. I placed my grandmother's golden chain pendant around my neck, and a charm bracelet around my right wrist. For my make-up, I applied eye-liner, mascara and dark pink lipstick. Finally I tied my hair into a nice messy bun, with loose strands falling delicately over my face, grabbed my backpack that had the essential books and left for my first day at Beckley High.

This is going to be a good day. I sighed.
