Adora Grayskull is perfect. She has no flaws and every girl in school seems to faint at the sight of her. She's good at school and softball. That's all anyone knows or cares to know at least.

She was adopted at age 3 by a young woman named Mara Grayskull after her parents mysteriously disappeared. She maintains her grades and practices non-stop because she can't afford college without the added scholarships.

She felt her whole life was meant to please others and do what they want her to do. But at what cost? Her happiness, of course. Yes, it's true. Adora is not happy with her life at all, tiny adventures do help her go through her day a lot better.

Also, another secret. She's never had a girlfriend before. All her teammates and classmates never knew her before high school started. She just suddenly rose in popularity when she made varsity softball in her freshman year.

She has two wonderful best friends, who know virtually nothing about her. Bow and Glimmer. They are dating so she kind of feels like a third wheel most of the time, but that's okay. Or is it? Whatever, Adora doesn't have enough time to be depressed, she's She-Ra, star of the Lady Rebels, pitcher extraordinaire.

So now, she's in some random math class talking to these girls she barely knows the names of. Flexing her muscles to woo them or whatever.- " Um, you're in my seat and class is about to start." A voice behind her says after she felt a tapping on her shoulder.

Ok time to apologize, asshole." OH, I'm sorry! I guess time flew by."

Before she made a fool of herself, she grabbed her backpack and tried to look as cool as possible coming off the desk. Man, this girl was pretty. She had pretty curly hair that went to her mid-back and two- different colored eyes. Wow.

To try to hear her talk some more, Adora asked " Hey, I've never seen you around before. I'm Adora Grayskull. What's your name?" She hoped this was flirting. Was she coming on too strong? I hope she's not straight. Nah, she's not straight.

The beauty responded with " I'm Catra Weaver." Wow even her name is pretty, Adora thought. She had to say bye to these other girls though, ugh. She put on a smile for Catra and waved to whoever those girls are.

Brain now set on a mission, the blonde gave Catra another dose of her flirting before making her way out of the classroom, trying to walk away with as much swag as possible.

Pulling out her phone to appear busy was Adora's best skill. She generally hated talking to people if they weren't Bow or Glimmer, but it had to be done. Sure she loved her team, but they didn't really know that she hated to talk to people.

Her next class was English and it was her favorite. Ever since she was little, she would write poems for her crushes or Mara. She had the highest average in her class with a 100. Yes, a straight 100. She needed to get through this class and then lunch till this day was over.

But it wouldn't be completely over then, she had a home game against the Horde and it's really important. She's not the captain or anything, it seems like she is, but it's actually Huntara Crimson.

She had a crush on her during her freshman year and had been let down very gently. Adora had written her a poem as she does, and instead received a note telling her why she can't be with her along with a flower. Adora will never forget it because it was so uncharacteristic of her.

On the thought of crushes and poems, Adora thinks about writing one for Catra and giving it to her. Life is too short to wallow and think everyone doesn't like you. Catra feels different from Adora, yes she's hot, but also different. In what way, who knows.

So, she makes her first draft of her poem to Catra:

You look like a dream,
Soft like a breath of fresh air.
Can I breathe it in?
