Chapter 8: Monday: A Day Out of Heaven and Hell

Aequal's PoV

Ahh Monday's. The bane of normal people's existence. Which is even worse for me on this particular Monday because, as of recently, I've found out I'm going to fall in love with Herobrine. Fucking Herobrine. Gross. Yeah, anyway.

I slam my locker closed and march down the hall defiantly, causing the usual whispers and gossip to surface in my wake. I almost make it out of the hall when- thump. I slam into a rather solid, blue t-shirt covered chest. Damn it. I look up at Hero's face. Aaaand he's glowering down at me. Lovely.

"You need something, El Manwhore?" I ask sarcastically.

"Maybe." I feel his arm around my waist.

"Shove off ya perv." I tell him, pull away from him.

"You can't escape my forever." He murmurs in my ear.

"I'm not in love with you yet, so jog on."

"Sassy as ever."

"Get out of my fucking way Hero."

I shove him away and walk out the door. Gods, I hate Monday's.

I've arrived a tad early for English class, so I sit down, pulling my phone and headphones out, along with my journal and pencil. My 'journal' isn't really what most consider a journal, per say. It's more of an extensive collection of stories and doodles. There are a few actual 'journalesque' entries, but they are few and scattered about the book. I take my pencil and as soon as it's well sharpened tip brushes the paper, my hand shudders and starts zipping across the page, bringing all the ideas I've been storing to bring to life on the paper. I only stop when I'm broken from my creative stupor by the bell ringing. I quickly take my headphones out of my ears, turn off the music and stow everything but my pencil back in my bag. I sit attentively waiting for Mr. Minor to start class. Then I realize the silence. I look around at my peers and realize they are all staring at me with gaping mouths. I glance over at Steve who is also displaying today's apparent facial expression norm. I wave my hand in front of his face.

"Hello? Earth to Steve. Anyone in there?"

He shakes his head, lessening the gape level in regards to his mouth.

"Sorry."

"Why is everyone catching flys over me?"

"Because you were decorating that paper like a maniac."

"Oh that? I was just letting out a little creative steam."

"A little?"

"Mhmm. I'll have to do more at home. I've got more stored up than I thought."

Just then Mr. Minor walks in.

"Class! Eyes front!" Is all he had to say to force everyone to pry their eyes from me and redirect their judgmental gaze upon our teacher.

"You will be continuing the 'We Are' project today, and yes, that is its official name." Mr. Minor sits down and diverts his attention from us, a simple cue that we are to begin work. I sigh and turn to Hero.

"Well?"

He takes his sweet, sweet time turning to look at me. Yeah, fall in love with this asshole, sure.

"You need something Princes?"

"Yes you daft idiot! We have a project to work on, remember?"

"Ahh of course." The blank expression on his face makes me want to slap him.

Without thinking, I blurt out: "You're an asshole."

Surprisingly, Hero chuckles. "Close, but no quite. I'm not an asshole, I'm the asshole. "

I scoff. "You're not that old. Yet."

"It's nice to see you point out the obvious, Princess," Herobrine smirks, lifting his shirt slightly to show me his muscular stomach. "But, I doubt anyone before me has perfected 'assholeism' this well."

I nod in agreement. "True. Now about our project?"

"What about said project?"

"When are we going to work on it again?"

"How's about today, after school. My house."

"Again?"

"Why of course Princess."

I sigh. "Fine."

And here I am again, waiting for Sir. Asshole at my locker. Why? Why do I bother with that dick? Haha, I said a word for pe-

"Earth to Queen Sass. Thinking about me?"

I start, looking up from my shoes to meet Herobrine's eyes. He's staring at me intently.

"Actually, yes." I say

He perks up instantly.

"Ha, I knew you couldn't res-"

"I was thinking of how much of a dick you are."

I know I've messed up when Herobrine starts smiling slyly.

"Are you sure you weren't thinking of my dick?"

I immediately start blushing, images of yesterday rushing into my mind.

"I wasn't, but now I have to cringe about it. Thanks."

I thought Hero would have some snarky comeback, but he just glares at me.

"Come on, I don't have all day."

Hey hey. I know, I've been a lazy ass. Spank me. Just kidding, don't. Anyhow, the next chapter is going to be sexual, btw. I feel like the two should have a few minor sexual encounters before the big shebang. So ye. Also, I will hopefully be putting some Mianite fanfics into my 'One Shot's' book soon, because, damn, that shit is overdue. Bai.
