I was sitting in the rain kissing this handsome guy with the most beautiful eyes when he said to me “Let’s run away together.” My heart stopped as I looked into his mysterious green eyes and said “I would run away with you any day.”. On one hand I did want to run away with him, and on the other hand I also had so much here.”Come with me to New York. We can live the rest of our lives together.” he said. I was about to say yes when..
I woke up to my noisey alarm. I forgot all about school. I got out of bed and started rummaging through my drawers to find some jeans and a tee shirt to wear. Who was that boy I saw in my dream? He was so handsome and mysterious. I just wanted to run away with him.
I heard my phone buzz so I picked it up to see a text from Bianca. The text read “Girl, there’s a new guy at school and he’s in our class!”. I texted back with “What does he look like?”.
As I waited for a reply I started to get dressed. I put on a tee shirt with the band Queen's logo and a pair of black jeans with rips around the knee area.
My phone buzzed once more and I read the text from Bianca which said “He has green eyes and he’s tall and handsome with black hair.”. I paused as I thought to myself, he couldn’t really be the boy I was dreaming of could he? No, that’d be too ridiculous. But then again, this was one hell of a coincidence.
I rushed downstairs to grab my backpack and went outside to wait for the bus. When I got on the bus, I saw the boy of my dreams. He had mysterious green eyes and silky black hair with the sweetest smile I had ever seen.
He immediately noticed me looking at him and waved at me. I blushed redder than a tomato and went to find a seat on the bus. It was overly crowded today. I sat across from the handsome boy and tried my hardest not to be obvious about looking at him.
He turned his head towards me and said “Name’s Axel but you can call me yours.”. Did he just flirt with me?! I shook my head and said “My name is Mia but you can call me out of your league.”. What did I just say?! I just said I was out of his league! I am so dumb its so obvious he could easily pull me.
He giggled and said “We’ll see about that.”. I thought I was about to faint. Did he just say what I thought he said?
The bus stopped and we started unloading off the school bus. When I got off I started to walk towards the gym for athletics when someone said “boo!” from behind me and startled me. I looked back to see Axel smiling softly at me. I rolled my eyes and walked off.
When I showed up to athletics I couldn’t help but notice everyone seemed to be whispering to their friends. I went up to Bianca and asked what everyone was talking about. She said “That new kid is a famous singer from New York.”. New York?! Okay now this was getting way too similar to my dream.
Axel walked into the gym and everyone looked at him immediately. I noticed a few girls were fangirling. Axel walked straight towards me and said “Hey ‘out of my league’, if it’s still okay to call you that.”. I opened my mouth to speak but quickly shut it as I turned red. He giggled and waved at me as he walked away.

Bianca looked at me and said “I see you’ve already met him then, so tell me, do you think he’s cute?”. “He’s not bad.” I said with a sly smile. Bianca rolled her eyes and took my hand as we walked into the locker room to get changed into our athletic clothes.
All the other girls were giving me dirty looks. Surely it wasn’t because Axel chose to talk to me and not them, right? But why would they be so jealous? Right, I forgot he was some famous singer from New York.
I walked into the gym wearing my gym shorts and low cut top. The coach blew his whistle and said “Today both the boys and girl will be running together, the first five to finish running two miles won’t have to do tomorrows workouts.
I smirked. I was one of the fastest students here. I could run a mile without resting. I noticed Axel was looking at me. I smiled shyly at him and started to jog outside to the track with everyone else.
I got in position and waited for the coach to blow the whistle. When he blew the whistle some girl behind me shoved me, knocking me over. Axel had seen what happened and jogged over to see if I was okay. He kneeled next to me and asked “You okay cutie?”. I rolled my eyes and smiled as he held his hand out for me. I took a hold of his hand and got on my feet.
Me and Axel ended up running together and being the second and third person to finish. I shook his hand and said “Thanks for checking on me back there.”. He nodded and grabbed my hand and took me to the nurse. Was he holding my hand?! I just knew those girls were gonna be even angrier now but I didn’t care.
He looked exactly like the boy I had seen in my dreams, he was even from New York too. I knew that I wanted him then. But I also knew that school life wouldn’t be easy especially with the fangirls who are obsessed with him.
I sat on a chair to rest while Axel looked through the nurses drawers for a band-aid. I giggled and told him I’d be fine without one. “Ahah” he said as he pulled a band-aid out of one of the drawers. He kneeled down next to me as he put the band-aid on my knee. He then looked up at me and said “This might sound weird but, I had a dream of a girl exactly like you last night. Crazy right?”.
“Actually, I had a dream about you last night, so I don’t think you're crazy.”. He looked at me and raised an eyebrow. “Maybe we’re meant to find each other and-”. “Run away to New York, yeah I know” I said. He smiled and took my hand. "Well, I can definitely see you as my wife.". I blushed and shook my head as I stood up. “Now you do sound crazy.” I said. “Says the one who had a dream about me.” he said. “Yeah well you had a dream about me too.” I said. “But I’m not denying it could be reality.” he said.
I giggled and waved as I started to head to my next class. I saw him smirk out of the corner of my eye as I walked away. I couldn’t believe he had the same dream I did. Maybe we really were meant to be? No, that’s just a fairytale. Then again he did seem like he’d make a good prince charming. Ugh what was I thinking?
As I walked to class I noticed people looking at me strangely and whispering in people’s ears. Were they talking about me? I quickly walked to class with my head down.
I walked into my social studies class to see more people staring at me. I sat down in the back and opened my textbook waiting for class to start. And there he was, Axel walked into class and the girls went ballistic trying to flirt with him. He ignored them and came and sat next to me. Again? Why was he so obsessed with me? There were much prettier and smarter girls here.
I must have said that out loud because he said “Yeah but you’re the girl of my dreams, literally.”. I covered my mouth as I turned red. I put my head down in embarrassment. It was going to be a long day.
After what felt like years school finally ended. I had gotten every type of dirty look there was today. When I tried to sit next to Axel on the bus someone threw a ball of paper at my head. Axel gave the girl a dirty look and made room for me to sit next to him. I smiled and calmly sat next to him. He must have noticed some girls were getting jealous because he held my hand and smirked at me. Was he trying to get me killed?!
I waved to Axel as I got off the bus and ran inside my house. I immediately went up to my room and jumped onto my bed. Today was such a crazy day.
I convinced myself to get up and take a shower. While in the shower I couldn’t stop thinking about Axel. We had seen each other in our dreams and were getting along so well. Could he actually like me. I barely knew him but I already knew I was in love with him. Did he feel the same way? No, of course he didn’t. But then again he did kind of act like it.
I got out of the shower and looked at myself in the mirror to try and see what he might see in me. A girl with acne and messy hair? I decided to just shake it off and wait for tomorrow.
I studied for a good two hours before I finally decided it would be best to go to sleep. I layed down and stared at my ceiling. Tomorrow will be normal, I told myself.
