CARMINE POV:

Entire frist period I could not get Zuin out of my head. The way he smiled at me.. It was just so.. Mesmerising.

"Hey! Wait up!" A familiar voice came up from behind me. "Carmine, right? I'm Aulie, but you probably already know that." Aulie puffed her wings up. "Well, Aulie, your pretty talkive for a Cardinal." I was shorting out my locker as I talk with her. Aulie was pretty nice actually, most cardinals that I have met where quiet with self-reserved personalities, whilst she was more out there and very talkive. "Yeah, I get that a lot," She chuckled nervously, "A lot of people tend to not want to be friends with me!"

Me and Aulie walked to second period, our own teacher was a fucking horned owl. "Names?" His wings, cream color with a brown stripes, ruffled. "Aulie, Aulie Northern." He ran down the attendance list and checked of what I'm guessing was Aulie's name. "Carmine." He cocked his head to the side a little. "Carmine what? I just had a Carmine in my first period." I sighed. "Carmine Blackwood..." He ran down the attendance list and checked of what I'm guessing was my name. I went and sat next to Aulie. "Well, welcome to second period, math. I am your teacher, Mr. Axle. Since it's the first day, we will all introduce ourselves with our class and species. I have already said my name so I'm higher class, Horned owl."

" I'm Zene, lower class, crow. " Zene's wings where tattered, and burnt in some places. His lips where also pierced, snake bites. I scrunched my nose at him. He winked at me. " Disgusting..." I mumbled.

Second period ended and me Aulie parted ways, I had third period science and they had English. It was nice, science, I mean, minus the fact that Zuin had that same period with me. Since the only open seat was next to Zuin, I had to sit next to him, I sighed. "Hi teens, preteens! I'm your teacher, Mrs. Rancher!" Mrs. Rancher seemed nice, but I was wrong. "We will be doing a group project that you have to do on your own time! Everything you remember from 8th grade to 6th grade science!" She at least had the grace to let us pick partners, "Three people to a group, by the way!"

Me, Zuin, and some Magpie named Uva partnered up.

It was very quiet in our group, until Zuin sparked a convo.

" So, are we not gonna add each other's numbers? "

" Holy fucking shit. Not only does he look good, but his voice takes the cake. " I thought, taking my phone out. His voice was not only deep, but its rich and silky.

"Oh yeah! I'll make a group chat!" Uva got there phone out and we each put our numbers in.

At the end of the day, I felt my phone buzz.

A text from Zuin appeared on my lock screen.

" Are your guys moms fine with people coming over? Cuz mines fine with it."

I texted back.

" Yeah, mine is. "

Uva began typing.

" My mom hates it when people come over "

" I have a rude ass brother, so Zuin's? "

Zuin began typing and paused, and began again.

" Yeah, we can do my place. "

No one else began typing. I got out my earbuds and shot my mom a text.

" Hey, just to let you know I won't be home till late! "

Then I asked Zuin for directions to his place.

He sent them to me.

Going to Zuins house for the first time.

How fun this will be.
