Brianna's P.OV. 

" Yes mom I know, I know I herd this last time."

" Well obviously didn't hear me well enough Tevy this is your second school in a year!" 

" Whatever I'll make it work this time i'm not going to dads' half way across the country just to go to school"  

" Okay well you know the consequences if you get kicked out, now go I'm going to be late for work"

As I jump out of the car I grab my bags out of the trunk and closed the door. As my mom speeds off without another word.

"umm Yeah love you too mom" I mumble to myself rolling my eyes in the process

" Here goes nothing" I think to myself as I start to walk up the steps to my now new home till the summer. I reach the front doors and open them struggling to get all my bags in. " Hi, I'm looking for the headmaster I'm Brianna Haim the new student" I say as calmly as possible. " Third door on your right" the lady says not even bothering to look up from her book. I shuffle over to the door with the words HEADMASTER written on it and knock.

"Well hello! you must be Brianna" "Yes but i prefer Tevy instead if that's alright with you?"  "yes of course come sit" the man says " Your roommates should be here any minute to show you to your room" Sitting down making myself comfortable I looked around to see the many awards and degrees along the walls and shelves. But my thoughts were cut short by a knock at the door. 

" Please come in girls"the headmaster said, As I turned  around to get a better view of the three girls I would be living with for the next six months.  " Girls this is Brianna Haim but she likes to be called Tevy" " Tevy this is Haley Case, Harley Trotta and Heidi Winston" "Hey i'm Tevy" I say shyly After introducing themselves Heidi and the girls grabbed my Hand and basically dragging me up the stairs to our room. " This is were you'll be sleeping" Harley exclaimed. " Here let me show you around" Haley said, Beaming me a kind smile. " Okay" i agreed nicely, we had reached the cafeteria when Haley spoke out again. " So Tevy huh? I like it very original!" "Thank you, And yes that's why I like it" 

" So when will I be starting class?" I asked curiously as we rounded the corner to see many more doors. " How about right now?" my new roommate exclaimed right when the bell rang. " This is Mr. Daniels class you have it with me and but hes a very strict teacher so if he lets us sit together its your lucky day. But after this is lunch so you can just walk with me and you'll sit with Heidi, Harley and I. Okay?" " Um yeah okay so should we go in now?" 

Exhaling deeply I walked into the room and walked up to the front desk. " Hi Mr.Daniels?" " Oh yes Brianna the new student how are you doing so far darling" " I'm doing alright" i exclaimed after the bell rang. Assuming that was the final bell for the class to began as all the tardy students ran in. It soon got very quiet. " Well Miss. Haim you came on a good day all we are doing is swhi-" the teacher was cut off by one more boy running in the door extremely late. " Ah Mr. Tepper 3rd time this week, take our seat please" "yes sir" the boy said while running to the back to sit with a group of boys.

" As I was saying we are switching seats and having a free day today considering Mr. Tepper "accidentally" shredded  the paper work after school yesterday." A low laugh came from all the students which made me chuckle.  " so on with the new seats I have already picked them for you so please stand up and wait to be called" I tuned out everyone till i herd Haley's name called hoping I would be next after her. " Haley Case .... Ricardo Montoya!" By the way they got excited I was convinced they were dating. I slowly inhaled realizing there was only me and a few others left. " Miss Haim you'll be with Joseph Trotta" Trotta? I thought to myself as I sat in front of Haley and the brown haired boy sat next to me and in front of Ricardo. Turning around to talk to Haley I was interrupted 

" So new girl huh?" the boy said with a smirk.  " Come on Joey shes been here five minutes don't scare her" Haley said. " Tevy this is Joey, Harley's brother and this is Ricardo my boyfriend but most of us call him Rickey . Over there that's Billy." she said, pointing to the boy across the room.  " And this here" she said pointing to the other side of her. " Is my brother Derek but everyone calls him yogurt" "Yogurt got it" I said chuckling to myself.

" So what's got you into The Rejects School?"  I herd a voice say behind me turning around to find Joey starting right at me. " I got kicked out of two schools in the last year. My mom said  it was either here or half way across the country to my dads who I hate. So i figured id give this place a try" " Look at that we already have something in common" joey said, " Oh yeah and whats that?" i said, grinning. " We both hate our dads, never have liked mine Harley's different though she adores the guy makes me sick just thinking about it." 

" Mr. Trotta hat off please!" the teacher said interrupting us. Rolling his eyes Joey took his hat off and pulled out his notebook. " I need you to look right at me and sit very still okay?" " um yeah sure" I said locking eyes with the incredibly cute boy sitting in front of me. He flipped threw a few pages till he found a clean piece of paper. " Oh wow! your really good at drawing those are amazing!" I said, a little to  excited " you think so? Thanks." Joey said smiling at me. Sitting still for the remainder of the class I watched as Joey looked up from the paper to me periodically. " Finished" he said, tearing out the paper and handing it to me. Looking over it i couldn't help but smile. " Thanks Joey Its beautiful " "Not as beautiful as you though" he exclaimed with a wink as the bell rang for lunch. As Joey, Rickey, Yogurt and Billy all ran to the cafeteria. Leaving me blushing and Haley standing next to me saying       " come on we need to go to lunch!"
