Capítulo 17: Transfer student
"Are you asking me on a date?" Lucas asked in a low voice as he leaned forward with his arms crossed against his chest. He was leaning close to her ear so that she could hear him over the chatter of the people walking past them on the street.
Sarah stiffened and turned her head away from him just enough so that he couldn't see her face. She looked around to make sure no one was too close and then whispered back at him, "Yes."
"Are you out of your mind?" Lucas replied, shaking his head. "No. No. No."
Sarah felt as if someone punched her in the gut when he said no. For an instant, she wanted to tell him that it was a joke, but then she realized that this was probably too early. It had only been two weeks since they met each other and now here he was making a move on her.
She swallowed hard against the lump in her throat and nodded before whispering back, "Okay."
"You okay?" Lucas whispered back to her. He placed his hand on her shoulder to comfort her.
"M-May I ask why?" Sarah asked, taking a deep breath.
There was a pause before Lucas replied, "Well…"
He took a moment to think before saying anything else. "It's not like I don't like you... But..."
"But what?..." Sarah replied, frowning up at him.
"I mean... You're my best friend." Lucas chuckled. "No way I am going to ruin that."
Sarah felt as if someone kicked her in the gut ten more times. She was pale and had a defeated look on her face. Her lips trembled as she tried to hold back tears that were threatening to spill over.
"O-Okay..." Sarah said softly, looking down at the ground.
They both stood there for a while until Lucas finally said, "How about we study magic together tomorrow?"
"That sounds good," Sarah replied, smiling timidly.
"Nice." Lucas said, smiling, not even realizing the damage he did.
"Yeah..." Sarah agreed, nodding along.
"Are you two from Elemental school?" A voice interrupted them.
Both turned their heads towards the source of the sound. There was a girl standing with short purple hair that reached down to her shoulders. She had golden eyes that reminded Lucas of a lot of those of an eagle. She was wearing a black leather jacket over a white t-shirt and a pair of tight black jeans.
"Yup, we are. I am Sarah..." Sarah nodded. "And you are?"
The purple-haired girl's eyes sparkled for a moment as she gazed at Lucas, who was watching the two girls communicate.
"My name is Lilith. Lilith Gold; a transfer student," Lilith answered, and winked at Lucas. "What about you?"
"Uh... Lucas." He pointed at himself awkwardly.
"You're a cutie." Lilith giggled and smiled at him. "So, do you have a girlfriend?"
Lucas frowned and shook his head. "Nope."
"I'm single too. So, wanna go out on a date?"
Lucas looked at Lilith as if she was a crazy person. "D-Date?"
Lilith laughed and shook her head. "Yeah. You know... Dinner. Movies. Stuff like that."
'What the hell is wrong with women today?' Lucas asked himself inside his mind.
"Sorry, I'll pass." Lucas replied to her quickly.
"Aw. C'mon! I haven't been on a real date yet." Lilith pouted. "Just give me a chance."
"Not interested." Lucas replied shortly.
"Oh, come on!" Lilith said, grabbing his arm. "Why not at least try?"
"He said he's not interested." Sarah pulled Lilith's hand off Lucas.
"What? But… We can be friends, right?" Lilith said with a sad look on her face.
"Sure. Friends." Lucas replied with a smile.
"Alright." Lilith smiled happily, holding her hands up.
Sarah looked at both of them, confused and worried at the same time. 'Who the hell is this girl?'
Meanwhile, Lilith fake smiled at Sarah, 'Who the hell does this bitch think she is?!'
"A-Anyway... What's up?" Lucas asked after a few minutes of awkward silence as the two girls stared at each other.
Lilith looked away for a second before turning back to Lucas and Sarah. "I need someone to take me to Elemental school."
"Oh yeah?" Sarah asked.
"Because... I've got no idea how to get there." Lilith explained and sighed sadly. "Please help me, guys?"
"Sure." Sarah nodded. "We'll take you there."
"Thanks, Sarah!" Lilith smiled at her.
Meanwhile, Lucas was daydreaming about practicing magic with the dragon.
'Maybe I could ask the dragon to teach me some tricks? That dude was ancient. Surely he knows some tricks.' Lucas thought excitedly in his head.
"Lucas?" the two girls said in unison. "You there?"
"Huh?" Lucas blinked a few times, coming back to reality.
"You're coming?" Sarah asked.
"Y-Yeah..." Lucas replied, looking at Sarah.
"I thought you fell asleep with your eyes open." Lilith scowled at Lucas.
"Sorry..." Lucas blushed and scratched the back of his head awkwardly.
"Let's go!" Sarah smiled.
Trio walked down the street towards the school. They stopped in front of the red building where the school was.
"This is Elemental school?" Lilith asked, staring at the building in awe. "Wow! This building is tiny."
"T-Tiny?" Sarah scoffed. "Elemental school has five levels, plus the dorms for students that live far away or just have to stay longer than expected."
"I mean... I expected more from a magic school, especially a legendary one like this." Lilith replied, still looking up at the building.
"Yeah, me too." Lucas agreed. 'Wait, a minute.' Lucas thought to himself. 'Déjà vu.'
Sarah and Lilith looked at Lucas in surprise. He pointed at himself and said in a low voice, "Uh... Déjà vu."
Both girls looked at Lucas as if he were an alien. Then they gazed at each other and exchanged a chuckle.
"It's a pleasure to meet you again, Lucas." Lilith said sarcastically. "Seriously. Stop daydreaming."
"I'm sorry." Lucas grinned sheepishly, rubbing the back of his head.
"Well, let's get going then." Sarah said and grabbed Lilith's hand and taking her into the building without waiting for Lucas.
Meanwhile, Lucas stood outside the door, looking back at the street.
"Yeah... I'll wait here." Lucas said awkwardly, "Did I do something wrong?"
