A simple CupChal Story (School life)

We Meet Again....

Cuphead's POV:
"I'm sorry I wasn't there" Mugman came by as I got up. Surprisingly, my leg actually healed but my arm was a bit sore.

"It's okay Mugsy. At least I'm fine now" I dressed myself a bit differently today for some reason of some sort.

I dressed in my black turtleneck shirt again because why not? I got some black pants and a hoodie but just blue. Me and Mugsy went downstairs over to Elder Kettle.

"My, my Cups, that's a good friend you got there. Plus she is just so charming with her little song" Elder Kettle said to me as he handed me my plate.

I just looked at him confused because I barely met her. How was I supposed to even know her if I didn't see her around these parts?

We finished and did the same thing like always, walk to school. Why couldn't I at least have a day out?

We arrived, Mugman and I were into our advisories.

"Cups I just want to know if you're going to be safe. I don't want you to get hurt" Mugman and his overly protective self. Who am I kidding it's getting quite old.

"Look Mugs I don't want you to worry about me all day. Plus I know you have my back as I got yours"

Finally we went into our own advisory. I sat at the back like always and the teacher took attendance.

When she was done, she said "I hope ya'll didn't forget that the new student is coming today and what do you know! She's in this very advisory! So I want ya'll to welcome her"

A she? Nobody told me it was a girl. The other kids murmured while I was getting my thoughts together.

At least the bell rang and it is now 7:55. I went to the hallway onto my first period.

As I went to my first period, I bumped into someone and we both ended up on the ground.

"Hey, watch it yo-" This can't be happening. The new student was no other than the stranger who saved me. Chalice, I think?

I quickly got up and put on the hood. Last thing I wanted was to embarrass myself. I sat down with Mugman in reading and I saw her going inside the classroom with her hand on the rim of her head.

"I'm sorry, if I'm late or anything but is this uh..." She looked at her schedule and continued "Reading I guess?"

I never got to see her completely but she was dressed a little bit differently. Sure, she was still wearing a yellow glowing like gold skirt and her usual shirt turtleneck but she also had a jacket on.

"Of course, you don't mind introducing yourself don't you? Anyways I should have you in my attendance sheet in maybe a week or so" The teacher came over and guided her in the front where she stand there nervously.

"Uh, my name is Chalice Fillington and uh, well...I guess I'm kinda happy to be here?" She said with a shrug. I don't blame her since I myself hate school.

"Why don't you sit next to Mugman. He is right over there" She pointed to us.

"Uh, the one with the blue sweater or the one with a blue straw?" She said. I blushed lightly in embarrassment.

"The one with the blue straw. Mugman, may you please raise your hand" Mugman raised his hand and she sat across us on the empty seat.

I tried to focus, but seriously how are you supposed to focus if you litterly have the last person you want to see sitting right in front of you?

As soon as the class ended I sped out the door and to the gym. I was lucky to not be caught because they were huge on "No running in the halls" but really nobody cares.
