1989's POV

"Holy crap!" I screamed when I woke up without hearing the alarm clock.

I quickly jumped out of bed looking for my phone, dead! Damn! I quickly started rummaging through my closet and pulled out the first dress I saw. I ran to the bathroom and got ready in a hurry, I didn't put on any makeup, damn it. I grabbed my bag and left the house, glancing at the clock. My parents left for work a long time ago. Maybe I'll make it to 3rd class!

I walked as fast as I could, I thought I would suffocate. I have never in my life overslept for school and here I am, such a surprise! I couldn't even call my friends because my stupid phone died. Life hates me. When I entered the school it was break, I made it. What do I even have next and what day of the week is it today?!

I quickly went to my locker and glanced at my class schedule, French- wonderful, seriously great! I slammed the locker door and headed towards the classroom, looking out for my friends in the hall. No familiar face. I was breathing heavily as I entered the French classroom. I feel and probably look awful. I sat down in my seat, to my surprise Midnights was not late and of course she looked stunning as always.

"Hi Nine" she said with a smirk on her face. I didn't have the strength to answer her. "Did you get offended?" she asked, coming even closer to me. I looked at her.

"I am not offended" I finally blurted out, trying to stay calm.

"Are you okay?" Midnights asked without taking her eyes off me. Is she worried?

"I'm not" I answered, hiding my face in my hands. I felt so embarrassed.

"What happened" Midnights said grabbing my hands making me have to make eye contact with her again. Her eyes. God. Just one look and I forget about all my problems.

"I overslept, I didn't have time to choose an outfit and put on makeup so I look and feel awful" I explained trying desperately not to sound like an idiot.

"Nine, you look absolutely gorgeous" Midnights smiled and I blushed. Fuck.

"Thank you" I said quietly. I really felt a lot better. Just a few minutes ago I was on the verge of a nervous breakdown and now I'm calmer than ever. What is this girl doing to me? Also she just called me gorgeous, stop. My cheeks turn even redder.

"Just the truth" she smirked and after a while the teacher entered the classroom starting the lesson to which Midnights rolled her eyes reluctantly turning her gaze towards the blackboard.

I wrote things down on the blackboard in my notebook dispassionately. Suddenly I felt Midnights nudge me with her elbow.

"What?" I whispered, snapped out of my trance.

"Show me your notes, I can't read this woman's handwriting for the hell " she replied and I I moved my notebook towards her. Since when does she even take notes?

"What kind of a good student you are" I whispered as she handed me back my notebook, she looked at me in disbelief and smirked.

"Just for a moment" I rolled my eyes at her lack of care about school. "Also I like this text in the margin" Midnights added again, pretending to be interested in the lesson.

Jesus she read that! I wonder if she knows it's about her? Why did she read that?! Wait she liked it! Omg! I felt my heart beat faster and a smile crept across my face. I felt so appreciated, it's so silly.

When class ended I immediately noticed Fearless and Speak Now. I ran over to them.

"Girl! Where have you been?" Fearless asked the moment I approached them.

"I overslept" I replied looking at her outfit. She was wearing a gold glitter top and a black skirt with high-heeled shoes.

"Oh my god what happened to our 1989! You have never been late in your life" Speak Now said with mock drama. She loves to do that. I rolled my eyes.

"This was the first and last time, stop look at me like that" I announced and the girls looked at each other giggling and after a while I joined them.

"So, did you know that a new girl is going to join our class?" Speak Now quickly changed subject the moment we stopped laughing.

"No, who is she?" I asked curiously and Fearless passed me her phone.

"It's her" she showed me her Instagram profile. It was full of pictures and quotes. "Her name is TTPD"

"Did you stalk her?" I asked, handing Fearless her phone back.

"Of course? We need to know who we are dealing with" she replied, which made me laugh.

"This girl is very pretty, I bet she will catch everyone's attention tomorrow" Speak Now stated.

"Don't say that, Lorie will get jealous" Fearless said, hitting Speak Now on the shoulder and her face turned red. I smiled when I saw this.

Speak Now was really down bad. Folklore too. Damn they fit together so well. I feel so single.

"Well TTPD looks nice" I confirmed while stuffing the books into the locker. "See you at lunch"

The rest of the day passed quietly, but I felt a huge sense of relief when I returned home. I had dinner with my parents and started reading a book for English. I wonder what this new girl will be like, maybe I'll become friends with her?

Red:
That new girl TTPD supposedly got kicked out of her previous school

1989:
Source?

Speak Now:
Red's stupid brain

Debut:
She doesn't look like someone who would get kicked out of school

Red:
I said PROBABLY and I heard it from Inez when I was going to the cafeteria

1989:
Inez? You know she's spreading rumors all the time

Fearless:
Right, she loves gossips

I put down my phone and decided to go for a walk. I changed into something casual, put on a coat because it was a cold evening and left the house.

I was walking through the streets, it was slowly getting dark. I had headphones in my ears so I didn't really hear the sound of the cars driving by. I wasn't paying attention to the people I was passing when suddenly one face reminded me of someone. A blonde with gray eyes, a beige coat and a handbag in her hand walked past me with an indifferent expression on her face. I turned around the moment I heard her footsteps receding. It was TTPD.
