v~Lunch

AFTER THE LESSON WAS over Miss Stacy released us to Lunch.

Everybody started to do their own things wether it was going outside with their friends to play catch, go in the closet to eat lunch or just read a book.

I went over to the coat room as I grabbed my basket and turned around to be faced by brown solid sweater. I yelped back and hit my head agaisnt my coat rack as I realized it was Gilbert.

"Gilbert!" I said a plaayfully hit his chest, "I am sorry!" He laughed as he grabbed his basket from behind me and started to rub my head.

"Are you okay?" He chuckled as we started to head outside. "I think I am fine now" I said as I rolled my eyes and he just continued laughing.

Gilbert took me to underneath a big tree, he took out a blanket out of his basket and laid it out on the snow so we wouldn't get wet, He sat down on the blanket as I sat down next to him.

"So, y/n, tell me a little about yourself" He said as he leaned back into the tree and took out an apple from his basket. "I already told you all you need to know Blythe, I play instruments, there's not anything interesting about myself other than that" I said as I took our a mango.

"I am sure you are an interesting person y/n, you just don't know it" He said as he made eye contact with my eyes, my cheeks started to turn red so I quickly looked down trying to hide my face.

"Are you blushing, Fleur?" He asked as he moved the hair away from my face revealing my red face.

"I am not!" I protested as I took the apple away from his hand and he just laughed. "Hey! You took my apple!" He said as he then procedded to snatch my mango.

"I like mangos better anyway, they are my favorite" He said as he took a bite off it as I just stared at him in shock.

"You took a bite out of my mango!" I said as I just started at him in shock while he enjoyed it, "You stole my apple!" He protested back after swallowing the mango.

"Yeah! But I wasn't actually going to eat!" I said as I threw the apple at him and he flinched back.

He then started laughing, "Okay, how about this we trade lunches?" He said trying to calm me down. "Okay, but you better have something good Blythe!" I said throwing my basket at him as he caught it on time.

I grabbed his basket from the ground and opened it, it revealed two pistachio macaroons and a bottle of milk. "Why do you have water instead of milk?" He asked as he brought up the water.

"I don't like milk," I stated snatching it back and handing him the bottle of milk. "But if you don't mind i'll keep the macaroons" I said a little prideful and he just chuckled.

"In that case i'll keep this red velvet cup cake!" He said as he put the whole cupcakes in his mouth and started to eat, with cupcake still in mouth we both started to laugh like maniacs and fell to the ground covered in snow.

"I think I am starting to like you Gilbert Blythe" I smiled as I sat back up.

"I think I am starting to like you too, Y/n Fleur" he smiled as he sat back up too.

We then started to talk about Gilbert's life while eating lunch.

He told me how he lived with a friend, Bash. He meet him in a ship he was working on recently as he was trying to travel the world. He then told me how before that his father had died and his dying wish was for him to travel the world.

"I am sorry about your father Gilbert," I said as rubbed his back for comfort as he sadly smiled at me. "If you don't mind me asking where is your mother?" I asked him as his face went back to normal.

"She died giving birth to me, my father told me she was a brave woman. I am quite sad that I never got to meet her, but it hasn't really affected me." He said with a tint of sadness.

"My mother is dead too." I said codly as I stared straight in front of us looking at some boys playing catch.

"Well that what we think at least, she went missing on October 1st, two months ago. I know I shouldn't say she's dead but something is telling me she is. Plus my that has already replaced her with my mother's childhood bestfriend, they got married last month. She is.. Lovely" I said as I swallowed hard on the 'Lovely' part knowing the truth.

"I am truly sorry you had to go through that" Gilbert said as I turned to look at his hazel eyes. "There is nothing to be sorry about Blythe, the past is the past and the present is the present. Plus it's not your fault" I said as I smiled sadly at him and he returne the smile.

"Now lets talk about more happy stuff! Tell me everything about you!" I smiled as sat up and we started to talk.

By the end of lunch me and Gilbert knew a lot of stuff about each other like our favorite colors, our birthdays, and ect.

As we walked into the classroom the desks where put back in place, gilbert said 'see you later' as he walked over to his male friends and started to talk to them.

I went over to the girls side of the classroom and sat in one of the desks. I started to day dream about the horrible place I will have to be in after school, my own house.

The house were me and my brother were constentaly getting abused by our step mother mentally and physically.

A hard bang sound pulled me out of my thoughts as I looked up to see a book in my desk which was what made the sound and a blue eyed girl with blond hair and a light pink dress.

"Listen here you useless girl!" She said as I just stared at her confused. "You see over there!" She said as she turned around and pointed at girl crying as she was being comforted by a girl with brown hair and pair of green eyes.

"That is Ruby! She has had dibs on Gilbert for 3 years now! You can't talk to gilbert blythe!" She said as she turned back around to face me.

"I am sorry, but you do know anybody can talk to Gilbert right?" I said calmly as I made eye contact with the blond headed girl.

"He is not an object, he is a human being with feelings, plus he can talk to whoever he wants." I said as the blondie just sighed loudly in anger and turned around to walk away and comfort Ruby.

"Class! Settle in! Everyone in a seat please!" Miss stacy said as she came out of the back room.
