Y/n's pov.

Monday. The worst day of the week in every student's opinion. As I dragged my feet while carrying the multi-story pile of books the teacher forced me to deliver to the teacher's office. Usually, I would go with the worst frown on my face but to my surprise, the thought of having someone else who I can talk about Jupiter Jim brings me over the moon since nobody in this 'pish-posh' heck of a school thinks absolute, the best form of entertainment is 'high-class' enough. I missed my old school in Boston, where Jupiter Jim was considered something 'normal' kids liked, this school is just filled with either textbook nerds or just bratty, spoiled rich kids. Pfft—like golf or cricket is better than the superior JJ.

Never had I once thought that the first person—oh, that doesn't fit him, I mean—the first Jupiter Jim interaction I would have would be with a turtle mutant that lives in the sewers and saves the entire world with magical weapons.

Wild, really but surprisingly, I don't mind his appearance. Sure, they're used to people screaming and crying away but they're the very reason why we sleep safely at night. Plus, they're super fun to hang out with. I've only met them for two weeks but we felt like the best of friends already.

Reaching the teacher's office, I landed the books down at my teacher's desk, Ms. Harley. "Thank you so much, Y/n." she sincerely thanked me as I nodded, smiled a bit, and soon exited the office.

Out of the blue, I heard a ping from my phone. It was Leo. I could already feel a smile on my face.

I felt like dancing my heart out when I heard that, I then immediately thought of the leftover baked goods from my job at Shironeko's.

As I was happily skipping to class, I then felt. like my feet had stepped onto something that was pulling my shoelaces. That was until I looked down to see that I've tripped on my sneakers and almost landed face-down on the floor. Before I could realize it, I then felt as if a pair of arms had caught me just in time.

I looked up awkwardly as his face smiles ever so gloriously.

Vernon False. The 'Hot' new student who recently joined around a month ago. I don't know how and why but he seems to only want to talk to me, although there are a thousand more people to talk to.

"Woah, gotcha," he smirked, winking as I quickly positioned myself up.

Vernon was like every "ordinary student" in my school, Evergreen High. Expensive leather shoes, the latest technology, an angular fringe haircut, and a luxurious watch made out of gold or silver—also known as the 'rich kid stuff' everyone seems to have.
The only difference he has is that his personality isn't rotten; it's far from that. He's the kind of person that you'll come to whenever you have problems, even if it's the smallest things.
