Day In & Day Out

Alec’s Pov

______________________________________________________________________________________________

So far this morning is going great. Talking to Ikaika about my nightmare actually made me feel better; I expected it to be a lot of rougher. Why did I even expect it to be rough? Ikaika has always been a good big brother, hell he even agrees with me on the most retarded subjects. I remember back in 7th grade we had a conversation about this show Adventure Time and how it was a show for stoners. Everyone would always talk about that show like it was the best, but apparently they’ve never seen Samurai Jack, Dexter’s Laboratory, Ed, Edd, n Eddy, Johnny Bravo, The Flintstone’s, The Powerpuff Girls. I could go on and on about these amazing shows but then that would be a boring story wouldn’t it.

Heading to school was slightly different today, everything seemed so blissful and colorful and even Ikaika seemed to more optimistic. I never thought I’d see the day when Ikaika would be excited to go school. He always seemed to hate this town for being boring and dull. Not me however I looked at this town and all I saw was gray, but that didn’t get me sad. I looked at it as an opportunity to be a more cheerful person to brighten up this town. My whole life everyone always questioned why I was so happy and I honestly didn’t know. My mindset is different than other people. I would always try to be optimistic about a situation, or I would try to resolve the situation myself before anything happened. I always try to keep people happy as it pains me to see them sad. I never understood why humans became sad because I believe happiness is the one thing that a person should cherish. Life is worth nothing if you aren’t happy.

Ikaika snaps me out of my stupor.

“Alec, we’re here.” Ikaika says as we arrive at school.

“Oh wow, that was fast.” I say unbuckling my seat belt.

Ikaika parks the car and I unbuckle my seatbelt, Ikaika does the same and we exit the car.

Ikaika and I decide to walk around campus before class begins. Most of the walk is just us enjoying the peace and quiet.

“I wonder if anything will ever change in this town” I say out loud

“We can only hope Alec.... we can only hope” Ikaika says nonchalantly.

During our stroll around campus we can’t help but overhear some students talking about some new transfer students coming to our school. At first we didn’t believe the rumors but as we walked around the school everyone was talking about it, so it must’ve been true. However no one seemed to know when these transfers were coming who they were.

“What’s the point in transferring so late in the school year? This is the last week of school!” Ikaika proclaimed.

“Maybe they were having problems at their other school.” I said unsure of the actual reason why.

“Oh yeah, cuz’ this school is soooo much better.” Ikaika said sarcastically.

“I just hope they’re not like all the other dumb fucks around here.” Ikaika puts emphasis on “dumb fucks”, I guess to make sure the people around us heard.

The school bell rings so we begin to walk to 1st period. My mind wanders off to the students talking about those transfers. I wonder how they look like? I hope they're nicer than the residents of this town anyway. We make it to class first and head to our seats. Ikaika and me both sit at the back of the class but we are on opposite sides with no one sitting around us (corner seats FTW). It’s like this in all of our classes. Some teachers tried to move us but the principal, our uncle, Mr.Caves says otherwise. Me and Ikaika would sometimes call him Bear because hes a big hairy man. He would get mad at us for calling him that around school and would chase us down, he was a pretty fast for a big old man.

The tardy bell rings as the room is now filled with students.

“Damn, how did I not notice” I thought to myself.

Class continues as usual. Useless and boring lectures, talkative students, and an aggravated teacher. As the teacher was about to explode the class phone rings and a special phenomenon that only occurs every 1,000 years happened. The whole class went silent! For the 1st time in forever there was peace and quiet as everyone listened to the phone call.

“Hello, this is B-307. This is Mrs.Mcconaughey speaking, how may I help you?”

“Hello Mrs.Mcconaughey, this is Mr.Caves” was all I heard as everyone started to talk to each other.

I look over to Ikaika and judging by his expression he seems rather pissed off. He notices me looking at him and I mouth to him “Did you hear what the teacher is talking about?”. He shakes his head while mouthing the word “No”. Mrs.Mcconaughey then hangs up the phone and tells the class to be quiet. She then gives a whole lecture on why being quiet is important and how it can help us in the future but most of the class fell asleep during the lecture. Her lecture is interrupted by a few knocks at the door, all heads perk up and everyones lock onto the door. Mrs.Mcconaughey walks over to the door and opens it and says “come in”. In walk six undeniably cute girls.

“Hiya, Ah’m AppleJack”One of the girls said. She’s sporting a stetson cowboy, a red plaid flannel, and short shorts. Based on the way she spoke she’s probably from the south. As I thought that she looked at me and I noticed she had green emerald eyes. She looked more toned than the other girls.

“Hi, I’m Twilight.” The next girl said. She has on a knit purple sweater with a deeper shade of purple as horizontal stripes on it. She also has on purple skinny jeans and her her hair was black with dyed streaks of pink and purple in it. And her eyes were also a very bright purple.

“Hi, I’m Rarity, i'm delighted to meet your acquaintance everyone.” She spun around after introducing herself. She wore a white pencil dress with a waist high black belt. She had really long curled purple hair, you swear you saw a bit of glitter in there. She seemed to be a fashionista of some sort. It seems like she’s wearing false eyelashes but I’m not sure.

“HieveryoneI’mPinkiePie!” She says quickly and enthusiastically, I could barely understand her she said it so fast. She has long bright pink curly locks and a cute button nose. She’s wearing pink party dress with glitter at the bottom where it flared out. Her bright blue eyes matched her complexion.

“Hi, I’m Rainbow Dash, The fastest girl world!” Did she just wink at me? No couldn’t be, probably had something in her eye. Eh i’m pretty sure no one would want to date a guy like me anyway. Shes way to out of my league. I mean She had magenta eyes and wore a cyan hoodie, with jeans and she had the most peculiar hair color, it’s rainbow! I’m pretty sure a outgoing person with awesome hair like that could get any guy she wanted.

“Hi, I’m Fluttershy” Did she say something? I’m pretty sure the whole class didn’t even try to listen since they would’ve been distracted by her huge rack. As I looked around the class I’m pretty sure that I saw about every guy pitch a tent. It seemed like she was wearing a hand knitted yellow sweater and a brown maxi skirt but what surprised me the most was that she was wearing flip flops and the fact she had, what seemed to be natural pink hair.

“Okay, now that we are done with introductions, girls would you please take your seats. Sorry that the only seats available are by Ikaika and Alec which are at the back of the class. If you have any problems please come see me.” Mrs.Mcconaughey said coldly.

“Woohoo!” Pinkie exclaims as she rushes to sit near Ikaika.

“Calm down Pinkie” Twilight said sternly while walking in front of Pinkie.

“Okay.....” Pinkie said glumly as you could literally see her happiness leave her. Her hair flattened and she had this dark feeling around her.But as quick as it had come, it left as she turned to her flamboyant self. Rarity follows Pinkie to their seats. Twilight sits beside Ikaika while Pinkie sits in front of her. Rarity seems a bit cautious of Ikaika as she slowly sits down in front of him.

Whilst looking at Ikaika, I neglect to notice Rainbow Dash, Applejack and Fluttershy sit down. Applejack had sat beside me while Rainbow Dash had took her place in front. Fluttershy decided to sit next to Rainbow Dash. I decide to introduce so I don’t come off as the wrong type of person.

“Hi there, I’m Alec” I said as formal as possible

They all turned around and looked at each other and smiled. Applejack was the first to say something.

“Howdy there, Alec, ah’m Applejack but you can AJ” She said with pride

“No Applejack it needs to be about 20% cooler!” Rainbowdash explained

“Hey Alec, my name's Rainbow Dash. I’m the leader of this entourage” She said proudly.

“And you can call me Dashie.” She puts emphasis on the word “you”

“You ain’t the leader ah this ‘ere group” AJ argued

“Yes I am” Dashie retorted

“Nuh uh” AJ said.

“Guys stop arguing” Fluttershy said quietly

I hear Fluttershy and decide to intervene.
“Ladies, could we stop arguing so I may hear to what Fluttershy has to say?” I ask as politely as possible.

AJ and Dashie look at each other, staring daggers as they sit down with a “hmph”.

“What did you say Fluttershy?” I ask

“Oh, I didn’t say nothing really.” She said really quietly

“Sorry Fluttershy, what was that?” I try to be as calm as possible so I don’t scare her. She seems like a person to get scared easily.

“Oh, sorry, I didn’t say anything really” She says with the most adorable voice ever.

“Are you sure? Did I scare you?” I calmly state

“Oh no no no, you are a very polite person, and.......kinda cute too”

“Sorry what was that last part?”

“Oh nothing!” She turns around quickly looking flustered.

I lean forward and I’m pretty sure I could see a tinge of red on her cheek. I turned to my brother, and it seems he’s introducing himself but paying an exponential amount of attention to Twilight. I think he might like her, but he hasn’t had an attraction to anyone in a long time, as far as I know. As class comes to an end the bell rings, officially marking the end of hell. Well maybe not hell because hell would be way more exciting than this class.

2nd and 3rd period fly by with Mr.Takamori our Trig teacher, and Mr.Broflovski our AP World History teacher. To our surprise the girls were still in me and my bro’s classes with the same seating arrangements.3rd period ends and heaven (Lunch) begins. Lunch is 1 hour and you are allowed to go off campus for lunch. I decide I’m going to show Fluttershy, AJ and Dashie around school.

“Hey girls, would you like a tour of the campus?” I ask them.

“Ah ain’t mighty sure Alec” AJ says.

“I'm for it if our friends can come” Dashie stated

“I don’t think it would be a problem” I respond

“Ok then” Dashie then proceeds to walk over to Twilight and whispers something

“Let’s not waste any time now” Is all I hear Twilight say before Twilight, Rarity, and Pinkie Pie walk toward. My bro Ikaika seems rather down so I decide to go see what’s wrong.

“Excuses me ladies” I say before standing up and walk to Ikaika.

“Why so glum chum?” I ask with concern

“Nothing!” Ikaika exclaims. I’m pretty sure I saw a vein pop.

“Well do you want to come with me and show the girls around campus?” I ask him.

“Is Twilight going?!” Ikaika suddenly ask with enthusiasm.

“No bro, she just decided to walk over to me and just hang out with a random stranger. Of course shes going!” I laugh as I answer his stupid question

“Jeez, you don’t need to be an ass about it.” Ikaika said a little hurt

“Hey bro, you know I didn’t mean it” I get closer to see if he’s alright. Ikaika then jumps up and pushes me to the ground.

“HAHAHAHAHA, gotcha good bro, gotcha good.” Ikaika reaches his hand out and I gladly grab it as he pulls me back on his feet.

“Now let’s go show these ladies a good time” I say as I brush myself off

“I concur” Ikaika states with a hint of smart-assery

Ikaika and I slowly walk toward the girls like the wannabe bad asses we are.

“What are they doing?” Rarity whispers to Twilight
“I’m not sure but it sure does look funny” Twilight suppressed a giggle. “Especially Ikaika”
