Sorry about the changing of covers. Imma stick with this one until I can get something to draw on my tablet with. Also, I found the old cover of my book on images, the one I made. But I prefer this one for now.

karkats POV

I stepped into the classroom and everyone turned to me. I froze, why was a getting so much attention, everyone hated me. I death glared them and squared my shoulders. I slid into my seat next to terezi, their eyes following me. It occurred to me that rumours had probably been spread around by vriska.

"Why are we getting so many stares?" I breathed in terezis ear.

She shrugged and waved a hand in front of her face "I can't see the haters".

I smirked and nidged her lightly "that's what I say".

She gives me a cute look. The teacher walks in, head held high. I don't think I mentioned this but our geography teacher was really cocky and sarcastic all the time. It annoyed me a lot. Luckily, vriska normally shot spitballs at his back, that was always the highlight of the lesson. Also, our teacher had move around the tables. We were on a table of four. Me, terezi, vriska and Eridan.

"OK, hand me some paper" vriska pointed to the tray of scrap paper by my chair.

I got out five pieces, making sure the teacher wasn't looking. I handed two to vriska, knowing she could make at least 50 to fire at him. I handed a bit to terezi and left the other two pieces under my book. Terezi folded the paper to make it less obvious and started to doodle.

The teacher clapped his hands together, getting all our attention.

"Ok, assessment is next lesson due to some difficulties" Hs glared at vriska who smirked.

What the hell did she do!? I made a mental note to ask her soon, or through pesterchum.

"So, today we're going to be doing table projects" he gave us a fake smile.

Half the class cheered. Our table didn't, vriska was just smirking and making her weapon under the table.

"So, I'm going yo give you a place and a textbook and you have to work together to find out as much as possible- yes Eridan?"

"Can I move?" He frowned.

"No" he turned away and stalked up to his desk.

Eridan cursed under his breath. I knew the reason her wanted to move. It was because vriska would constantly bully him, I swear he once got a black eye or something like that. His big brother Cronus talked to Aranea, vriskas sister and I heard the police got involved because a big fight erupted.

I would offer to move but me and terezi are a thing now and vriska might start spit balling me.

"Ok, tell me when he's turned his back" vriska nodded to me.

"Uh.... Now" I hissed.

Vriska aimed and fired. The teacher spun around, his eyes fire. Vriska put the weapon in eridans hands and turned away.

"Eridan Ampora!!" The teacher yelled.

"It wasnt me!" Eridan glared at vriska "it was her".

"Don't blame it on her, she's in enough trouble as it is Ampora" he ushered Eridan to his desk "Detention lunch time and after school tomorrow".

Eridan sat back down and didn't talk or cooperate for the rest of the lesson.

After a boring maths lesson, it was finally lunch. I walked with terezi, hand in hand, to the canteen. She bought a large pasta and I got a cupcake. We sat down together on an empty table. I was staring at her blank eyes as she stabbed the pasta with a fork. Her hair was bouncing on her shoulders. She looked up at me and tilted her head.

"What?" She asked.

"Hm?" Now I was genuinely confused.

"Don't act like you didn't know you were staring at me" terezi waved her fork around, wiggling her eyebrows.

I blushed a deep red.

Ok, the final lesson until I get to go home and forget this day ever happened!

Imma update again today most likely :D
