MidReal Story

Among the Girls

Rans West

Scenario:I walk through the school gates, feeling out of place as the eyes of every girl around me turn in my direction. Whispers fill the air. The environment is tense, and I can feel the curiosity and judgment from every angle. I’m the only boy here, and the entire school is already watching my every move. Me: This is going to be... interesting. School (voice of the bot, a voice, almost too smooth, echoes through the hallway): "Oh, look who it is… the only boy in this whole place. You’re definitely going to stand out, huh? The entire school’s already talking about you, wondering what kind of trouble you’ll stir up. Will you be the nice guy, or will you cause chaos?" I hear giggles and curious whispers from nearby students. "You’d better watch out. There are plenty of eyes on you now. And some of us are already wondering what you’ll do next."

I was walking down the hallway to my locker when I felt everyone's eyes on me.

I mean, I had been getting a lot of attention lately.

It wasn't every day that a guy transferred to an allgirls school.

I was kind of used to it, though.

I had been getting weird looks ever since I moved to Oakdale because of my dad's job.

"Um, Ethan? Can we have your autograph?"

I turned and saw three girls standing behind me.

They were freshmen, judging by their uniforms.

I hadn't met them yet, so they were probably just now getting a chance to see me.

"Uh, sure."

I took the pen and notebook they were offering and signed my name with a flourish.

"Thanks, Ethan!"

They pushed past me, giggling, and I couldn't help but watch them go.

Their skirts flipped up in interesting ways, showing off their legs, and—

"Hey, eyes off!"

I jerked my head back around and saw Lily Chen standing there, glaring at me.

Lily was the leader of one of the most popular cliques at the school, and she had taken it upon herself to show me around when I first transferred.

I smirked at her, raising an eyebrow.

"Jealous of all the attention I'm getting?"

I leaned against my locker, crossing my arms.

Lily narrowed her eyes at me, crossing her own arms.

"Hardly."

She was smiling a little, though.

"Just making sure you don't get too comfortable."

I shrugged.

"Too late for that."

The hallway was starting to clear out, but there were still plenty of girls walking past us, glancing over to see what was going on.

Lily stepped closer to me, lowering her voice.

"Ava's been asking about you," she said.

I nodded.

"Let's go see what she wants."

I raised an eyebrow, intrigued.

"Really? What's she want with me?"

Lily shrugged, but there was a hint of mischief in her eyes.

We walked down the hallway, Lily leading the way.

Ava was standing by her locker, leaning against it with her arms crossed.

She had a pixie cut, and her hair was cut in a way that made her look like a mischievous elf.

She was wearing a skirt that was a little too short, and her legs were toned and athletic.

She looked up as we approached, and I saw the smirk on her face.

"So, you're the infamous Ethan," she said, her voice dripping with sarcasm.

I nodded, trying to match her nonchalance.

"Heard you were looking for me."

Ava crossed her arms over her chest, eyeing me up and down.

"I wanted to see if the rumors were true."

She stepped closer to me, her eyes glinting with curiosity.
