Welcome to part 2! :

It was already known that your group was the group, how could it not be? you guys are loud, do stupid shit together, and get into trouble but, none of you really care, you guys have too much damn fun to care. People know not to mess around with your group, Michael in particular. Despite being that shy and scared boy he once was, when he met you and the group, he began to become more confidant, started to grow into himself more, and become more extraverted, and let me tell you that boy is not afraid to put someone in their place if needed.

September 22nd, 1984

7:03 A.M.

"You better not make us late n/n!" Michael calls from outside your door. Every morning he waits for you to walk to school with you. "like you care if you're late anyway!" you call back. You slipped into your shoes, looked at your outfit one more time which consisted of a band t-shirt and baggy jeans, checked your hair and after another 5 minutes you swing open your door. "about time, the hell were you even doing that took so long?" Before you close the door, you yell your goodbyes to your dad. "I woke up late- and it wasn't that long". You and Michael start your walk to school,

"It felt long"

"It was five minutes."

"Yeah five minutes too long"

"You're so dramatic" you laugh.

"I am not dramatic"

"Yeah, sure"

"Whatever"

"You're moody now too? a lot of emotions today I see"

Michael groaned and threw his head back"It's way too early for this n/n" he laughs.

Soon enough, you arrive at that hellhole called "school". You huff as you make your way into the building, Michael laughs at your reaction. "It's 7 in the morning and people are this energetic? " You look around the hallways at all the different people- most are in small groups, there are those few gross couples making out, some are laughing, some look stressed, some still look asleep and a few here and there are alone. One kid however, caught your eye. "He's alone but he isn't just waiting around for the bell to ring like everyone else, he looks... panicked..?" You think as you watch the blond boy frantically look around. You nudge Michaels arm. "Mikey, you see that blond boy over there?". Michael looks around for a second before spotting him.

"Yeah, why?"

"He looks lost- I'm gonna go talk to him" you say as you start walking towards him. "Hey!- wait!" Michael yells following you. You walk right up to the blonde, not waiting for Michael to catch up. "Hey, I'm Y/N, you... uh..good..?"

The boy laughs. "Well, I guess I could use some help- I just moved here so I don't really know what the hell I'm doin' just yet". He's pretty sociable and bubbly, you can tell he's funny. Michael is now standing behind you, curious about who this boy is."Alright, what do you need help with?" he shows you his schedule and you explain how the day works and where the classrooms are and all that stuff.

"I know it's a lot, do you think you got it for now?"

"Yeah! thanks a lot!- wait- who are you? I forgot to ask" he asks referring to Michael.
