"Here's your planner Star! The person showing you around should be here in a matter of minutes." Audrey the office lady says.
"Thanks." I say politely, I take my planner and put it in my bag.
A girl in a Sleeping With Sirens hoodie walks casually around the corner to the front desk, she has earphones in and hasnt noticed Im here. "Hey Audrey, where's this girl Im supposed to be showing around?"
Audrey smiles at me "She's right there."
The girl turns and smiles apologetically at me "Oh god Im sorry-WAIT ARE YOU KELLIN QUINNS ADOPTED DAUGHTER!?!?!?!"
I nod nervously "Umm...yeah...?"
The girl starts squealing "Im a huge fan of you and your dad! I saw you both perform at Warped this year, you guys are awesome!"
I blush slightly "Thank you!"
"So you're Star Quinn, Im Lola. Nice to meet you!" She holds out a hand and I shake it.
"Nice to meet you too Lola." I laugh slightly. We start walking down the corridors. "So whats it like here?" I ask curiously.
She shrugs "There's cliques and lessons, the same as any other school. Today you have to decide which clique you want to be in."
"Which one are you in?" I ask.
She smiles "Im in whats classed as the 'emo' group. There's about 4 of us so its good if you want to join us, we can have an odd number and Mia can stop freaking out." She rolls her eyes.
I raise an eyebrow "Does she have a phobia of even numbers?"
Lola laughs "Basically yeah! So when we get to our home room I'll tell you all the cliques and who to avoid so you dont get yourself any enemies on your first day."
I nod "Ok, thanks!"
"No problem!" She says as we walk towards a classroom door. "This is our home room, we come here for roll call at the beginning of school and after lunch. Our home room teacher person is called Mr Reese."
My jaw drops "Mr Reese. His name is Mr Reese. MR REESE!?!?!"
Lola nods and looks confused "Yeah...why?"
I hold a hand to my forehead "Im a complete Terminator nerd. Please tell me you've seen The Terminator."
Lola laughs "Oh you mean a KYLE REESE reference ah ok, yeah of course I've seen it. Almost everybody in the 'emo' clique has too, though Im pretty sure they like it more than I do. We're all nerds for different things. Im a nerd for music, Mia is a gaming nerd, Blake is a nerd for ANYTHING gothic and Billie is an older things nerd, he loves old movies, old bands etc."
I nod in understanding "Well Im a nerd for sci-fi and just movies in general so I hope I get along with everyone."
Lola smiles "Of course you will!" Then she opens the door to our form room and we walk inside together.
The teacher, Mr Reese, stands up "Ah, you must be Star Quinn! Its nice to meet you!" He holds out a hand and I shake it "So, as Lola will be showing you around I think its safe to seat you two next to eachother from now on?"
I look at Lola and she nods "That'd be awesome!"
"What do you think Star?" Mr Reese asks curiously.
When I dont answer, Lola whispers to him "She's a huge Terminator fan and hasnt quite got over the fact that your last name is Reese. She's also shy."
Mr Reese laughs and nods "Well my first name isnt Kyle Im afraid."
I click my fingers "Such a shame." Before going to sit next to Lola.
There are 2 people sitting infront of us and 2 people to the left of us. Lola introduces me to them all. "So Star, this is Mia." She points to a girl with dark brown bangs that are dip dyed blue.
Mia waves nervously "Hi..."
I smile shyly "Hi..." I reply.
Lola points to the gothic boy next to Mia "This is Blake."
Blake smiles at me "Sup!"
I giggle "Hey, you're a lot...I dont know how to say this without offending you..."
Blake laughs "Im not as depressing as you thought I would be?"
I nod "Yeah! Im not meaning to be rude though..."
Blake holds a hand up "Dont sweat it, Im used to it. Just dont make fun and its all good." He smiles again.
Lola leans forward in her seat to point to the boy on our left "And thats-"
I cut her off "Billie-Joe!"
Billie looks up and smiles at me "Hey new girl!" He says as he scoots his chair over to come sit on our table.
Lola raises an eyebrow "So you guys have already met?"
Billie nods "Yeah we have, I saw her in the office earlier. I dropped my stuff and she helped me pick it up then she gave me the nickname Billie-Joe and now we're best friends for life just because of that nickname." He says simply. I laugh.
Mia raises an eyebrow "Who's Billie-Joe?"
Me and Billie both facepalm at the exact same time before laughing at eachother. Blake rolls his eyes "He's the lead singer of this band..."
I stop mid laugh "Not just a band, THE band. THE Green Day. Does nobody understand how important they are!?! Was I or was I not born in the wrong century!?!"
Billie laughs and holds up his hand "I feel your pain!"
I lean forward and lift up everybodies hands so they match Billies before going around and high-fiving them all "And HIGH FIVES ALL ROUND!!!" I say excitedly. "Wha-pish!" I high five Blake "Wha-pish!" I high five Mia "Wha-pish!" I high five Lola "Wha-pish!" I high five Billie. "Thank you guys so much for watching and I will see all you dudes..." I throw my arms up in the air "IN THE NEXT VIDEEEEOOOOOO!!!"
Mia applauds "Now THAT was awesome!"
I wink "Gaming nerds understand gaming nerds, am I right?"
Mia laughs "So right!"
Blake looks confused "What was that all about!?!"
"Blake, what references DO you understand!?!" I ask curiously.
Blake is thoughtful for a moment "Horror movie references."
I nod "Will comedy horror suffice?"
He smiles widely "Depends on which comedy horror!"
I smile and them give him a well practised questioning look "Hey dude...you've got red on you!" I point at his shirt.
Blake looks down at his shirt before pointing at me and smiling "Now THATS a good reference!"
I rest my hands on the back of my head and lean back "What can I say man? Im a complete nerd!" Maybe making friends is easier than I thought!?!
