The three teenagers walked into their next class-English. However, the chatter from the two boys either side of Sienna had stopped suddenly as simultaneously both of their lines of sight had landed onto the two females ahead. One with dark-brown, straight hair and another with strawberry blonde waves, the girls legs moved forward in unison whilst both of their the backs faced the three people who now stood motionlessly in the door way. Mouths agape from the two boys, trying to silently muster their courage in a matter of seconds, their expressions a mixture of happy, surprised and nervous. Whilst a look of confusion shrouded Sienna's smile, she noticed the situation and tried to avoid being stuck in the middle of it, so she took a seat towards the back of the class before anyone else said a thing.

As she sat her books on the table she turned to her left and noticed she had unknowingly taken a seat beside the brown haired girl who Scott still seemed to be staring at quite intently. His glance shifted to Sienna, as she give him a small smile but she was still very much unsure on the entire situation that had gone on before she had made an appearance to Beacon Hills, but she knew there was something going on between the two girls and two boys— but she didn't know what, not that it was her business, but she was suddenly, internally quite curious. Scott returned the smile as he took a seat next to Stiles diagonally to the right from her. She hadn't watched anything but the steps her feet were taking when she was going to sit down, if she had, she definitely would not have sat next to the brown haired girl, not because she didn't want to, but she strongly wanted to avoid going near any drama between her new class mates. Although she quite clearly, has managed to insert herself right in the middle of two sides of something.

Class had begun, the teacher announced that they would be doing group work today, which sucked for Sienna since everyone else had already sat with their friends whilst she remained alone in her chair watching the laughter and conversation going between the mixture of friends and different groups that were dotted around the classroom. As she stuck her hand in the air and went to ask if she could go to the toilet, a trip there that she hadn't intended on returning from, planning on sitting in there until she needed to leave again.

The brown haired girls voice drew Sienna's attention away from the teacher and towards her as she called out " Hey" a couple of times and beckoned for Sienna to go closer to her. Hesitantly, she shot her a look which said— are you talking to me or? The voice was coming from the same girl she had sat next to, but who had moved away when she sat beside the strawberry blonde to do group work, still unsure if she was actually talking to her, however the smile that was still fixed on the girls' face as it was aimed in Sienna's general direction suggested she was in fact talking to Sienna.

Slowly she got up from her seat and sat with the two. Now sitting next to them, Sienna flashed back to her old group of friends and a feeling of nostalgia hit her quite suddenly. The two new girls somewhat reflected her old friends, their looks and hair colour somewhat similar, however Holly and the one with brown hair, far more than Charlie and the one with strawberry blonde.

" Hiya, we saw you sitting alone and we thought you might want to pair with us? I'm Allison by the way" she said with a sweet smile as Sienna had taken up on the invite to sit with them.

" Yeah, and it's super cool that you're from England! I've wanted to go for ages but I wouldn't be able to take my dog and I am not going on a trip without Prada. Anyways, hi, I'm Lydia " The strawberry blonde exclaimed, for the first half she looked at Sienna as she spoke, but by the time she started talking about her dog, her eyes had drifted to her work set out onto the table below her, until she introduced herself and then her eyes again met Sienna's for a spilt second with a short smile exchange between the girls.

" Hi, well I'm Sienna. Yeah, I'm from England, but it's not all that special over there, alot of rain like all the time" She and the girls let out a short laugh and began to converse about all the different things about each of the different places they had all lived previously. For Sienna it was one, same for Lydia, however Allison had moved around a few more times than the other two, so she took up on most of the conversation.

Sienna had been shown to her classes by Stiles however they hadn't shared any more after English, she hadn't shared any with anyone else she knew other than Greenberg who seemed to be in them all. Ew. Being forced to sit next to him in science, she ensured to keep a good distance between him and herself where possible. So waiting for him to take a seat and then picking the one that was the furthest from him seemed to work quite well for her.

The bell rang loud, the end to fourth period and the start to lunch had begun. She had very much dreaded this moment since the moment she woke up, because despite having had a conversation with a few different people she hadn't made a 'friendship' with anyone, nor did she have the confidence to walk up to a table and join them. So, this left her with a few options: 1. Sit in the cafeteria by herself, until maybe someone joins her 2. Sit with one a of the teachers in a class 3. Sit with Greenberg 4. Sit in the toilets where no one could see her sitting alone. So naturally, she chose the latter.

Already having a pre-made lunch in her bag, knowing that this may be how her future lunches at school would be spent. She took refuge in a stall furthest from the door that entered the toilets. Alone and quite, she took out her lunch and ate it. She scrolled a little through her phone but she hadn't really paid attention to what she was looking at or what was actually even on the screen. Her eyes were open but her mind wandered elsewhere, until the silence grew too loud and the small clicks coming from her wrist captured her attention more than anything else had, she began watching the second hand on her watch slowly pass by the minute hand as she prayed for fifth period to come around quicker, all because that would allow her to leave the captivity of the small, four walls that were surrounding her in the stall that she had chosen. As much as she wanted to leave she couldn't until the sound of the school bell rang. The fear of being seen alone, and being seen as vulnerable, ultimately an outcast of society, was too overpowering, so residing in the comfort of a bathroom stall, was her only option.

A/N awhhh:( I don't like writing that, but it helps create the character of Sienna. She is a confident girl and her character will develop, but I think everyone can agree it's scary on the first day and she currently doesn't have the confidence to try and make the friendships outside of classes just yet, she's still shy and lacking in confidence but it's definitely not gonna be like that forever, however right now she's just kinda hiding herself away from her fears but that's just for now:)
