Julie showed me a chest at the end of the bed. Inside were different things from her mom. It was a lot like the memory box that Reggie and I just went through. There were some beautiful clothes in the trunk. I picked out a camo overall suit and a white T-shirt with a yellow sun to go underneath. It was perfect.

After, the two of us went over to the other tub and started to hunt for an outfit for me to wear. We eventually found a dark blue top with a bit of lace on the back, some black jeans and some cute boots. I finished the look off with my black leather jacket.

My outfit:

'Looking good, Molina!'

'Looking good, Molina!'

'Right back at ya, Patterson!'

We laughed at each other and made our way to school. Weirdly, it was the same high school we went to. Not much had changed. There were some new tables and it now said "Bobcats" instead of "Snow Leopards", but other than that it looked pretty much the same.

'It feels weird being back here!'

'What do you mean?' Julie whispered, not wanting to look crazy talking to herself.

'We went here, before, you know. I still remember where my locker used to be! I can quickly show you if you would like?'

'Sure!' I walked over and pointed at my old locker. 'Wait, this used to be yours?'

'Yeah, why?'

'That's my locker!'

'Woah, that's crazy! Wait, where is everyone?'

'I don't know, but we should go and find Flynn!'

'Yeah, lead the way!'

We walked around a little until we heard a trumpet. We walked into a room and saw Flynn. 'What are you doing, and where is everyone?' Julie asked.

'Spirit assembly. I was kinda blowing it off 'cause I wasn't feeling very spirity.' The two of us sighed, making Flynn take her feet from the back of the chair in front of her. 'You two ok?'

'Not really.'

'We had this new plan to play for Mrs Harrison, hoping that she'd let her back in, but-'

'I guess I missed my chance.' Julie finished my sentence.

Flynn smiled and put the trumpet on the ground. 'No. you didn't.' She got up and walked over. She put her arm around Julie's shoulders and Julie did the same to me. She only stopped when other people came into view.

When we got to the main hall, we saw a group of girls in different colours singing and dancing. I had to admit, they sounded good. Julie is better, but still. I bet she's the popular, rich girl.

'Look who spent all her daddy's money on costumes and Katy Perry's choreographer.' Called it, but who's "Katy Perry"? She must be one of the artists people listen to nowadays.
