Tuesday.
Stacie came to school as usual,but she seemed different.She had dark circles round her eyes,and her hair wasn't as shiny.I knew something was up.
"I need to talk to you,Cait."
"O-okay..."

She looked at me and started crying.I hugged her and I looked at her. "Just tell me...".
She wiped her tears away and sniffed.She took a deep breath in and told me what happened.
"My parents...you know had to talk to me at home yesterday.I went to them and they told m-me that we're moving,t-to a new c-city.My Dad got a new job and I can't stay,they wint let me.I'm leaving next Friday." I gasped.

"B-but...oh Stacie!" I hugged her tight,for I'll not see her at least in a new home,new school,but a new city.
The teacher called Stace in for a mental math test and felt tears already rushing down my cheeks.I'm not some popular girl to be surrounded by friends.I'm normal,but well...I thought if I could make friends.Maybe one day Stacie and I would make good friends.But the bad idea struck me.If Stacie ditches-
Nah,she wouldn't do that.Besides,we can have a hundred besties if we wanted.But if she did...

I banged my head on the waiting table so the idea goes away,and I got a few stares from others.To be honest my weird math teacher Mr.Gemm.What a creepy name for a guy,John Gemm.Yuck.He's going from the aphabetical order,backwards.He's started with Z for Zara Mishaan and then jumped to U for Una Pen then onto T for Tod Bracker and so on.But that was only a few of them.There might have been five students with a name starring with Z.Way to go,Gemm.

I opened my exersise book and started doodling a comic about some mushy pea being stepped on over and over again until some kid ate him up.When I finished I found that Mr.Gemm had been stuck on E.Eleanor,Elle,Ellie,Emma,Ean,Emisha,Emily,Elma.There was alot.I decided to do another comic.This time I did one about some guy looking for chocolate then he finds some on the floor and eats it.So then he finds out it has nuts in it and he's allergic to nuts so his butt scratches.The guy was meant to be a pain in the butt anyways.It was Absolutly Freezing.Not to mention that morning when I had the heater on and the TV showing cartoons (mlp) and I went to make some tea and when I came back,the electricity had GONE!!I did everything I can but nothing worked.But I had no worries because something that isn't my fault shouldn't bother me.So my snotty parents were trying to fix it.Well,Dad is probably.Why did I have to have so many surprises in my life?I looked up and sighed when I saw Connor coming over to my empty table.I didn't want any nosy kids peeking at my stuff.But I didn't mind other nice kids-including Connor and Stacie. "What's up?" I had said,and you would find the answer very awkward,he had replied "The sky!" followed by this laugh he kept roll-playing.He started talking about this cake thing and I told him I don't know anyone that can bake.Unfortunatly I know everyone in school but I never hanged out with them.
Then it was my turn to go to the teacher.No way I can get a chance now... I thought.
I waved goodbye to Connor and I went in.

Later on I came back.A girl approached me.She was covered in flour and I thought hard for a minute to find its the school's best baker student (she's the captain of the baking team) Vanilla Pie (see any connections here!?) her diamond blue eyes twinkled at me,and I smiled at her. "Hey,Vanny," and she screamed "Hi Caitlin!" I knew she needed help,so I went closer to her.
"Need help with that flour machine?"
"Yeah it doesn't work do you work wait are you a robot that doesn't work but you can't work in a work because work is in you but you aren't working-"
"Uh,let's ask the cook,"
"Aye," she looked at me and smiled.Her medium layered blonde hair with a pink ombré at the bottom was tied in a...pink hair and.Wearing...pink lipgloss and...pink nail polish.Naturally it's her favourite color.
When we got the flour-weighing machine,we weighed the flour and I told Vanilla about Connor's desire to bake a cake and she became excited."Yay,baking school!" She had pumped her fist into the air.Then I whispered to her about Stacie's story.We decided to make her a special ice-cream cake.Since Vanilla is the best baker in school,she insisted on making other bakery things-biscuits and she also wanted to make lemon creams.So we got to work on making Fairy Cakes for the teacher's birthday and then we dragged Connor into the baking room to ask what cake he wanted.Vanilla took out a pen and a notepad and wrote his desires.
"So I want a medium chocolate cake with chocolate frosting and chocolate flakes.Make it sweet,but not too sweet.And,uh, sprinkle the cake with those special sugar ingredient things."
"Any allergies?"
"No;why?"
"I will make you a bonus surprise to because I love fun,"
"So what's the fun in eating?Huh well-" I cut Connor off.I flashed him a look saying don't hurt her feelings.
He smiled and left.And I waved goodbye to Vanilla.This time I went to the maths captain;Brian Luke Handley.He was wearing jeans and a green sweater.He had glasses,curly brown hair and grey eyes.He looked at me and gave a shy way. "H-hi um...C-ca-Caitlin!" before adding "No one comes here to me,".I rolled my eyes and told him the plan."After all,you've got to put on a smile!" I had taught him.So he smiled.
