Thread: Hydrophobic Romance (malin & Aise)

RE Hydrophobic Romance east Aise Aeshas mind had wondered back to elementary school, the darkest days of her life when shed avoided everyone and anyone at all costs. She always got to school five minutes late, afraid of meeting someone in the morning, and shed begged her teacher to give her daily detention in a secluded room that was off limits to other students. As for after school, shed always be the first one out the door. Her feet sprinting down the hallway when the kids that really hated school had barely put down their pens. School was the embodiment of her fear. That wasnt right, it wasnt the school. She didnt mind her teachers, the building, not even the boring stacks of textbooks. No, what scared her were her fellow peers. Boys and girls who were still too young to understand how much suffering they could cause. An innocent torture that only a child or the mentally insane could achieve. At first it had been because of her tail. Shed lashed out when one of the boys had tried to pull it off, thinking it would be easily disattached, she hadnt hurt him too badly, a simply scratch a bandaid would heal within a week, but shed scarred the boys ego, and ever since him and his friends had chased her around the school. It would have been fine if the teachers had intervened, Aesha herself had begged them desperately to help her, but each time theyd just smile at her and tell her to stop making a fuss over nothing. And because of it, shed developed the dark brooding mentality that the only person she could trust and depend upon was herself. Her mentality had worked wonders for her academically, ignoring her teachers in class, and constantly reading ahead, she couldnt depend on the teachers for her safety, so why would she think they had anything else to offer? Her attitude didnt sit with the faculty, and as the years passed, some of the teachers even started joining in to torture her. And she was certain her own teacher had dealt a hand in the events that transpired during her last year. Shed been asked to stay behind after class, her teacher making her sit quietly as if she were in detention for a whole thirty minutes, not saying a single word before she got up and left the classroom, just as several of her classmates rushed in dragging her by her hair across the halls before tossing her into the boys toilets. Her head held down in a basin of filled with dirty water, her classmates had laughed and jeered as she begged them to stop. Theyd yank her head up every few seconds to let her breath, before shoving her face in the foul tasting water, the unpleasant liquid burning her eyes, and filling her mouth and nose. It felt like an eternity, before shed finally managed to fall unconscious, her body slumped against the dirty floor of the school toilets until the cleaner arrived and rushed her to hospital the following morning. She cold unpleasant shiver ran down her spine, her eyelids moistening as she recalled the events. Shed recovered significantly over the past three years. Her parents had been outraged and had quit their jobs and life just to move across state and start up life anew in a much more friendly environment. Her family was pretty much broke, her father quitting his job as a manager for a renown company and working as a common cleaner at her school and several others, just to make sure that the tragedy of her past wouldnt be repeated in highschool. Her mind had wandered completely, and when she suddenly felt something collide with her, it took several moments before she remembered shed been standing in the school cafeteria. Though even that simple fact vanished from her mind as food hit the floor, and an open waterbottle sprayed both her and her assailant. Though most of the water had splashed on her, her hair dripping wet as the water trickled down her face, and down to her uniform. The white fabric going slightly transparent to reveal her striped bra. She didnt say anything, her golden eyes staring blankly at the figure before her. She couldnt think properly. The cafeteria had fallen silent, and Rens voice echoed rather loudly, but even then Aesha didnt catch a single word, her body shivering violently as her mouth opened and closed like a fish out of water. Her white tiger ears flicked off a few droplets, the gesture one of clear distress, before tears streamed down her face. Her eyes wide with shock, before she collapsed against Ren. Her mind shutting down completely as her elementary days seemed to make a return. Her mind didnt even register the chance of it being an accident.
