Once you were done unpacking your things, you laid down on your bed. The sun was setting and everything seemed quiet. Your mom knocked on my room door.

"Yea?" You called out.

"The next store Neighbours want to meet you!"

You hopped up from your bed and walked out. At the door was A girl in all pink with black hair and their mom.

"Oh, hi! I'm Nene!" The girl said.

"I'm y/n!" You respond kindly.

"I love the name, y/n!" She smiled. "I hear you're going to my school?"

"Yea, I think so!" You said and watched their mom come over.

"We gotta go! Tell y/n bye. You will see them tomorrow at school." They said.

"Oh, bye, y/n!" She said and walked out the door.

"Bye!!!" You called out and went back to hide in your room. As it was getting late you fell asleep.

(Y/n pov)

My mom woke me up at 7:30 am.

"We gotta get you an alarm clock!" She said, "get ready, y/n!"

I stood up and dug through my closet, pulling out some black ripped jeans and a black band tee. I put some boots on and walked into the kitchen. My mom handed me my backpack with all my stuff. I took my phone and went outside to wait for the bus. Nene was out there.

"Hey, y/n." She smiled.

"Hi, Nene!" I returned the smile.

When the bus arrived I got on and sat next to Nene. She was talking to someone dress in green with orange hair who sat in front of us. I was introduced to him.

"Heya! I'm Pico." He told me.

"I'm y/n!"

"Very cool!" He told me.

The bus driver yells at everyone to sit down and shut up.

"Fuck off!" Someone in the back yelled. They had red pointy hair and very Gothic-looking clothing. The bus driver glared at her but sat down like it was typical.

"Who was that?" I asked.

"That's Cassandra. If you run into her at school I suggest you stay away. She's quite scary." She looked worried.

"Oh-." I said. I looked back at her out of curiosity. She was hanging out with a few other alt-looking people in the back of the bus. She looked at me with glowing soulless eyes. She narrowed her eyes and I quickly looked away. I looked back at her real quick and she was still staring. I felt my heart drop. After what Nene said I wanted to be on her good side.

Once we got to school Nene pulled me along and followed pico who was looking for someone named Darnell. I told Nene ill wait in the courtyard. Once Nene left Cassandra walked up to me. She looked angry.

"H-hey?" I said.

"I just wanted to tell you that I like your outfit." She huffed.

"Thanks -?" I said. She was looking at the ground.

"Yea..." She walked off.

I stood there in confusion when Nene ran up to me.

"Are you okay!?" She breathed. She must have been out of breath.

"Yea? Why?" I asked.

"Cassandra never walks up to anyone. Sorry, I'm overreacting."

"She complimented my outfit," I told her.

"Really???" She inhaled.

"Mhm!"

"Wow, that's new.-" Nene said. Pico ran up to us.

"I guess Darnell didn't come today." He frowned. The bell rang meaning there were 5 minutes till class. We each went into different classrooms. I walked into mine and someone with a pink mohawk walking up to me.

"Who are you?" He said.

"I'm y/n? why?"

"Why did Cassandra walk up to you?"

"I dunno!?" I responded. Cassandra walked in.

"Hey, leave them alone." Cassandra mumbled and pulled him away. She shot me a dirty look and sat down. The desks wherein rows. Cassandra was seated in the back with the pink-haired guy. Once people started coming into the classroom the teacher also arrived.

"Hey y/n, do you want to tell the class about yourself?" The teacher said. I quickly shook my head.

"Okay, you can sit over there." She pointed to the seat by Cassandra. Cassandra saw and rolled her eyes not seeming to care. I sat down next to her. She smelt of Cigarette smoke and she was doodling on a paper.

"Mind your fucking business!" She said after realizing I was watching her draw.

"S-sorry." I said and focused on the teacher.

"Take out your notebook! Today your taking notes with the person next to you." The teacher said. Cassandra looked at me and made a face. I ignored her and took out my notebook.

"I'm new and all- uhmmm- can you show me how to do this math?" I asked.

"Do I look like I want to?!" She shouted.

"Shit" I mumbled. "No, I'm sorry."

"Dumbass." She groaned.

Cassandra Laid her head on the desk and watched me do the math. She would look up at me now and then and I would feel my face heat up. The teacher called us to bring up our papers. Once I was back at my desk everyone was packing up to leave for the next class. Cassandra was gone and there was a note. It read "meet me after school." with a heart and a pentagram.

The other classes leading up to lunch were boring pico was in one of my classes But, other than that nothing took place. At lunch, I sat with Pico and Nene. Cassandra sat across from us. Pico looked at Cassandra confused than at me. I shook my head.

"She usually sits at the back of the Room" Nene whispered to me.

"Why is she here?" I whispered back.

She shrugged.

Eventually, the pink-haired boy and someone else sat next to her too.

"Why are you over here??" He asked.

Cassandra grabbed the collar of his shirt. "DO PEOPLE NOT KNOW HOW TO MIND THEIR FUCKING BUSINESS?" she yelled at him then looked at me and let go. She shook her head. Nene stared at me. Cassandra laid on the table with her head buried in her arms. We sat there in silence until the bell rang. Pico and Nene left without me and I watched Cassandra sit up. She looked at me then looked away quickly. I stood up and she followed behind. She kept close to me and walked into our next class. I was able to pick where I wanted to sit and Cassandra looked up at me when she heard that so I set next to her.

"Why are you sitting next to me again? "

"Why not!? "

Cassandra smiled.
