TW: Suicidal thought
Timeskip 3 weeks
Catras POV:
Getting into a new rhythm was not easy for me since i was naturally bad with change. After 3 weeks, I still had trouble finding my way around Bright Moon High but Adora was never far away to show me what i was looking for. Bow, Glimmer and Perfuma helped too but sometimes, they give me weird looks and i'm not sure why.
The last few weeks I spent a lot of time with Adora again, rekindling our old Friendship faster than I would have imagined. We went to lunch and dinner at School or on the Weekends, i joined her at her Work a bunch more times, went to the Cinema or just hung out at my place. Next weekend we planned for me to join them for Dinner, finally meeting Mara. Adora wanted us to meet sooner but Mara was buried in work apparently.
A few days ago, I even managed to make another Friend that, despite my lack of social Skills, I really happen to vibe well with. Double Trouble, or DT as they prefer to be called, is a Reptile Hybrid who started talking to me a few Days ago and they seem to tickle my inner Rebel a bit. DT is a non binary, unapologetic queer, drama Emperor (yes THAT is how they introduced themself), who, with their sleek, good looks, could blend into any crowd. If not for their Green Hair and the Scales clearly visible on the Arms and the Neck, they would be easy to overlook.
DT was in a similar position as me, being 'bought' at a young age just to be no longer of use and they made no secret about how their 'Parents' had left them about a month ago to life over in Europe somewhere "sucks when fads die hmm" i say, sounding almost depressed
"au contraire, mon minou. I see this as a great opportunity to use whatever Wealth they are not gonna miss, for my own benefit. First thing i did was get myself some of the best Weed in Town and celebrated for a week straight, Darling"
"Love how you can be so positive about that DT" i say, making them laugh
"Well why wouldn't I be? I am not going to beg them to love me, i Love myself to much for that"
"Maybe that's where we differ" i mutter quietly enough so they wouldn't hear it.

Today we were at Lunch, sitting in the Canteen, Adora at my side with Bow and Glimmer sitting across from us. We are doing the usual bitching about Teachers, Homework and each other when Adora suddenly starts to tickle me when I don't agree with her on something "A..Adora.. HAhahHAh S...Stop"
"Not until you admit you are wrong" after a bit of back and forth, i was in Adoras arms, both of us laughing like little kids again
"Ok i have to ask" Glimmer starts, looking at us with one Eyebrow raised "are you REALLY just friends?" i freeze up
"Of course we are Glim...what else would we be?"
"What are you talking about?" i ask as innocently as i can manage
"You behave like a Couple and believe me i'm not the only one that sees this" Glimmer says, looking at Bow, who was struggling with some Homemade Mac N Cheese
"don't ashk me" he brings out with his mouth full
"Pfff haha that's crazy" Adora says with a hyena-like laugh "so what if thats how it looks? I'm straight and I think Catra would have told me if she wasn't. Not that i would have an issue with that mind you, i mean what kind of Hypocrite would i be if i was a Homophobe, after all Mara and Hope have done for me?"
I get up from Adora and decide to go for the joke route "No my Love, we have been exposed....what are we to do" i grab Adoras Hand "Run away with me to where their eyes can't follow, beloved. Shield me from the vicious looks of society" i say with as much dramatic flair as i can, making Adora laugh even more
