The Line between Love and Hate ~Louis Partridge~

chapter five

Lunch. Finally.

Usually I'd be more nervous, having to stand there clueless as people rush past me and to their group of friends, but I have Millie in my lunch so I'll be fine.

Louis, there's also Louis in my lunch.

The three of us walk into the cafeteria, Millie in the middle and Louis and I on either side of her. I followed them to a table placed near the middle of the courtyard.

We all sat down, now I was placed in the middle, on my right was Mille and on the left, Louis. After a few seconds a group of people walk towards us and sit down. They were chattering and didn't notice me. It's fine, I'm used to not being noticed.

"You're the new student right?" A red head asked. Followed by everyone turning their attention to me. "Yeah I am. Im Avalon." I say, plastering on a smile.

The red head smiled back. "I'm Saide, this is Caleb, Finn, Gaten, and Noah." She said gesturing to the designated people. We all exchanged hellos.

Lunch was spent getting to know each other. More like everyone getting to know me and me trying to get to know all 7 of them. Next thing I know, the lunch bell rang and we had to head to our next classes. Which was a bummer because I was actually having fun.

Noah and Gaten are hilarious. Always making others crack up. Finn and Caleb are the sarcastic ones, I feel like I fit on the sarcastic side as well. Millie and Sadie are like the moms of the group, yelling at Noah when he made inappropriate jokes. At one point Sadie even said 'language!' causing us all to break into a fit of laughter.

It really surprises me how I am instantly felt at ease in the group. Maybe coming to London wasn't that bad.

Finally, the last class of the day. It was finance, I know boring, but I'm thrilled because everyone at the lunch table was in this class. They also said the teacher was supper chill and usually left half the class for us to do whatever.

I walk in and introduce myself to the teacher, after having a short conversation I really saw why everyone said he was chill. The group was waving me towards the back when class was starting to begin.

"Any the rest of class time is yours, do with it what you please." The teacher said.

"Okay so," Sadie started, causing us all to turn towards her. "Since Avalon is new to London, heck to this side of the world," she continued, causing us to laugh "we should take her out and show her around!" Everyone started agreeing immediately, while I was kind of reluctant. They turned towards me when they realized my quietness.

"What about you, are you down?" Caleb asked.
"I don't know, I don't want to be a bother." I spoke up.

"You definitely aren't a bother!" Louis said, everyone else agreeing. I don't know how, but it's only my first day of knowing them but in my gut I can feel they've always known me and I them.

"O-okay then." I said. Everyone got excited and started making plans. We decided to go downtown today after school for a few hours. I was becoming more and more excited as the minutes ticked by.

"Should we go straight there or go home and change?" Millie asked.

"Change, definitely change." I said, looking down at the bland uniform I had on. Very different from my last school. Everyone agreed.

"Well I don't have a ride." I spoke up. I haven't gotten the chance to get a car yet.

"I can pick you up." Louis spoke up a little too quickly.

"Okay, thanks."

He hummed in response. We continue talking till the bell rang. We split ways and all went home to get ready for our little adventure.

A/N: I would LOVE to be friends with them. The things that I would give to go on a little adventure in London with this group.... Is a lot.
I don't actually know of people say downtown in London so if not I apologize.
