James

I was wondering around the halls looking for someone who might be able to show me where Dianna was.

My girl.
I'd been waiting so long to meet my baby.

"Hey sorry I was wondering if you knew where I could find Dianna wills" I said, asking a random girl while looking at the letter I had been carrying around with me, reading her name out.

"your looking for Dee? no way! Yeah I'm actually going to meet are friends now so she'll probably be there." She said, the girl had long ginger hair that was pulled into a ponytail, and she was wearing some loose jeans and a plain black shirt.

"So your friends with her then?" I asked as we started walking to wherever her friends were.

"Oh yeahh I've known her since I was like ten. She's really sweet your gonna love her."

"So u know her pretty well? any tips or tricks I should know about?" I ask looking at the woman.

"she's a really picky eater like you imagine a picky eater then she's 10x worse." She joked as we walked down the hallway.

"Oh ok cool thanks...uh?"

"Taylor, What's your name."

"James." I said with a smile

"Hay Taylor what's with the stray" I hear someone call from down the hallway from a short and muscular guy.

"Shut up you gimp." Taylor said to the guy, before doing a weird handshake.

"This guy is looking for Dee." Taylor says pointing to me.
"Oh are you her...?"

"Caregiver." I say with a tight smile.

"No way never would have guessed Dee was a little. Cool. Anyway I just saw Steven get taken away but principal so you probably won't see him till 4th" she says to Taylor.

The three of us walked to a stairwell then all the way up it to find a few people who I guessed were their friends.

Me Taylor and the other guy who I now new as Toney sat at the top of the stairwell pretty close to the doors.

"Guys this is are new friend James." Taylor said introducing me to them all, and I received a few small greetings as I sat at the top step with Taylor.

"So where is she?" I say to Taylor, looking around to all the people in the stairwell.

All of a sudden I hear the doors behind me.

"Right there." Taylor says watching 2 girls walk in.

They were both polar opposites of each other, one girl had short jet black hair and dark skin, she wore black baggy jeans and was insanely tall and skinny.

I immediately took notice of the other girl though, she was pale and short with long long blonde hair, she had very short shorts on with a long sleeve shirt and little booties.

"No I actually can't believe he would do that do her on Valentine's Day of all days-" the short girl was talking and walked straight past me and down a few stairs and sat on one of the free steps just below me

"No I actually can't believe he would do that do her on Valentine's Day of all days-" the short girl was talking and walked straight past me and down a few stairs and sat on one of the free steps just below me.
I watched her with a smile, she was so small but had such a big energy.

"Dee have you opened your letter yet?" Taylor asked her.
I guessed she was trying to see if she new who I was or not, after she walked straight past me.

"Yep." The girl said holding up her opened letter in 2 of her fingers.
"And..?" Taylor asked, hoping for more.

I watched Dianna lean back on the wall, putting the letter down or the step next to her.

"I don't plan to look for the guy." She said shrugging.
"What about when he comes looking for you? Or when the school asks? Or your classes?" Another boy says, holing out a sweet bag out for her.

"Uh I don't know." The girl said with a smile, pulling a few gummy's out the baggy then
I saw her eyes quickly flick to me and back to Taylor.

"Let me see the letter" the boy says, reaching for the letter.

"Hmm competitive weight lifter AND captain of the Indiana state chess team? Who is this man."The guy said reading out the letter. "Dee? What are you doing? Have you even looked up this guy's socials?" The boy says.

"Don't rush her David, everyone works at their own pace." Another girl said, plucking the letter from his hands.

"Yeah don't rush me Daviddd" Dianna said in a mocking tone, then dipping her hand back in his little baggy of gummy's.
The boy was definitely not a dominant of any sort but I couldn't place him.
I watched the two mess around as he tried to pull his bag away from her making a shocked face, and the two giggled. They were clearly close and it was very cute.
"Competitive weight lifting? I didn't every know that was a thing." The girl with the letter said.

"Neither but I looked it up and he must be jacked." Dianna said raising her eyebrows up and down.

I couldn't help but smile to myself. She had the cutest face and I couldn't help imagining just picking her up and protecting her from the world.

"Dianna? Don't you have class right now?" Toney, the boy I met in the hall piped up

"Probably." She said while stretching her legs out on the step she was sitting on.

"I feel bad for the poor guy who's gonna receive all of your late notices and fines" Taylor said with a laugh, giving me a little eye.

"It's maths it's not that deep." She said, resting her head on David's head, getting comfortable.

"Come on, me James and Toney have a class that way anyway, we'll walk you ." Taylor said standing up, followed by Toney and me

"Fine." Dianna said rolling her eyes as she grabbed her bag and stood up and started walking down the stairs, the rest of us following after.

"Wait who's s James?"
