My name is Espresso. And I'm the new kid. I just moved here from my old town, UpDog, because my dad got a promotion at the chocolate factory.
I looked in my closet for what felt like hours. I needed to make a good first impression, so my fit had to be poppin.
I decide to wear my favorite outfit. I quickly get dressed then head out the door, grabbing a piece of toast on the way out, holding it in my mouth so my fingers don't get buttery.
( authors note : this is what he is wearing guys, imagine him in this outfit. )

I walk through the doors at school, clutching my books to my chest as I nervously look around. I tuck a strand of hair behind my ear and push up my glasses as I make my way to my locker.
I find my locker number and put in the combination, placing my backpack inside. I suddenly turn when the locker next to me is slammed shut.
I look into the purple orbs of the man standing next to me, looking at me with a scowl as he leans an arm on his locker door. He had white hair tied in a bun with a braid on the side with swirls of brown, like freshly used toilet paper. He wore a crisp suit, and a purple tie.
" Hey loser. "
" What ? " I say as I look at him, confused.
Suddenly, another boy pops his head over the shoulder of the first boy. He had purple hair that ended in drips, his side fringe looked like it was cut with those child scissors that had the jagged blades. He wore a matching suit to the first boy, and his tie was a blueish purple.
" Ooooh are you neeeeew ? " he playfully asked.
" Uh, y-yeah..I just m-moved here f-from UpDog.." I stammer out. I was nervous. 🥺
" What's UpDog ? " the purple haired boy asked.
" N-nothing much, w-whats up with y-you..." I was about to start bawling, but before I could, everyone in the hallway suddenly ran to the end of the hallway, crowding around a group of boys. I pull myself together and ask the two boys what the commotion is all about.
" Oh, that's right, your new here, so you don't know. " the white haired one snickered behind his hand.
He suddenly points to the large crowd. " Their the most popular boys in school. "
I squint my pink orbs to see better. In the crowd, I see four boys wearing matching jerseys.
The white haired boy points to a short boy with black and white hair that looks like it was cut behind a Walmart dumpster.
" That's Crunchy Chip. He's the captain of the football team. "
He then points to a tall boy with pink hair tied into a braid. He looked massive, all of him except for one of his hands that was unusually smaller then the other. " That's Wildberry. The lead cheerleader. "
He then points to a tall boy with grey skin and orange, lava looking hair.
" That's Capsaicin. The linebacker. "
He then finally points to the last boy with the football jersey. He was tall, blonde hair waving in the breeze. It was long, down to his waist. His beautiful blue orbs were mesmerizing, and his skin was literally glowing. He looked warm like the sun..
The white haired boy snaps his fingers in my face, waking me up from my daydream.
" That's Madeleine. He's the quarterback. "
I stare at Madeleine as I quietly repeat his name in my mind. A beautiful name for a beautiful face..
" Affogato. "
" h-huh..? "
" That's my name, stupid. Affogato. " the white haired boy, Affogato, said in a mean tone.
He points to the boy behind him.
" And this twig is Prune Juice. "
" Who are you calling a twig ? " Prune Juice snaps at the others nickname.
" You, stupid. " Affogato says blankly.
Prune juice angrily huffs and pulls his arms to his chest.
" Whatever.." he sighs, defeated.
" I-I'm Espresso. " I say to the other boys.
Affogato sneers at me.
" Yeah, you look like an Espresso. " he laughs behind his hand. He thinks that makes him look cool and anime, but it doesn't.
I roll my eyes at his comment and look away, once again losing myself in those pretty blue orbs from across the hallway.
I get snapped back to reality as the bell rings. I quickly check to make sure the gravity is still there, before grabbing my books and quickly make my way to my first period, carrying my books in my mouth so my fingers don't get buttery.
I walk into class and beeline it to the seat in the back next to the window. I stare out the window as more people enter the room. I stare at the rain dripping down the glass pane, grey clouds peeing out the water in them all over the town.
I preferred the rain over the sun that all the other girls were so obsessed with. I always preferred reading in the rain instead of tanning at the beach. I guess you could say that I wasn't like other girls.
I suddenly turn to the side to see who had sat down next to me.
The boy had minty green streaks in his white hair AND A GIRLFRIEND. He placed a violin case, covered in pictures of his GIRLFRIEND down onto the floor by his desk. He looks at me with minty orbs.
" Hi there, I'm Mint Choco. I have a girlfriend. " he says politely, shaking my hand. I figured he had decided to make the fact that he was in a relationship his entire personality.
" H-hi, I'm Espresso.." I say meekly as I shake his hand.
Suddenly my attention is turned twords a crowd of people that were all squealing at the door. I craned my neck to see who they were all circled around, and I got a glimpse of beautiful platinum blonde hair. It was him. Madeleine.
He walked into the room after waving at the crowd of fans, looking around the room for somewhere to sit. Everyone was eyeing the seat next to them, hoping he'd choose that chair.
I turn to my side to do the same, but get a face full of mint. My do or die instincts kick in and I shove Mint Choco out of the chair, a loud snap ringing out as he hits the floor. He holds his freshly broken humerus close to his chest as he screams in anguish. He didn't seem to find it very funny.
" MY ARM ! MY ARM ! YOU BROKE IT ! WHATS WRONG WITH YOU ! I HAVE A CONCERT TONIGHT ! I CANT PLAY THE VIOLIN LIKE THIS ! IT WILL TAKE FOREVER TO HEAL ! WHAT IF I CANT PLAY VIOLIN EVER AGAIN ! YOUVE RUINED MY CAREER ! YOU - "
" Oh go tell it to your GIRLFRIEND. " I cut him off as I stare at Madeline getting closer and closer to me. He suddenly stops in front of the desk Mint Choco was sitting at moments ago and turns to me.
" This seat taken ? "
My heart almost gave out as he talked to me.
" N-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-o " I stammer out, nervous from his gorgeous blue orbs stare at me.
" Cool. " he said and smiled at me with a warm and sweet smile. He wiped his feet onto Mint Choco before sitting. He then picked up the violin case that was on the floor and threw it out the window. " Just gonna get that out of my way. " he said as the case fell into a wood chipper that was conveniently outside the window.
" NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO " Mint Choco yelled as the sound of shredding wood filled the room.
" Oh go tell it to your GIRLFRIEND. " Madeleine said as he looked down at him.
