I sat right next to Ryder. Not really sure or finding it comfortable sitting on this table because I hardly know any of them. Yes I know a few are in the student council and their friendly and yeah I know Ryder. But I still don't find it comfortable to sit here.

Surprisingly there were quite a lot of people here. I guess what Blake told me about Ryder was really true? He is really popular.

I looked towards Ryder, to notice he's been staring at me with a smirk since I sat down. "So you found us?" He leaned closer to my ear and whispered, trying hard not to laugh.

He then got up and took my hand, pulling me up. Ryder turned to the group with a smile, "Guys, we'll be right back!" He shouted pulling me behind him.

Ryder pulled me behind the cafeteria block. He stopped and turned to face me, his face full of seriousness. "Since now I know we go to the same school together, I could introduce you to my friends and we could hang out more often?" He smiled.

"Erm, sure. Though I already know a few of them.." I replied a bit unsure. I just laughed it off and smiled at him, earning a confused look.

"Okay, so let me introduce you and then if you're free on Friday night we could all hang out?" He asked, I just nodded. "Awesome!" Ryder then pulled me back towards the group.

When we arrived back, everyone was laughing and too busy talking to notice us. I sat back down where I sat before, so did Ryder. He looked down at me and smiled then he turned his attention to the group.

"Guys! This is Luna, she's new buy some of you already know her!" He exclaimed grabbing the group's attention and put a hand on my shoulder.

"Hey.." I felt a bit unsure, and uncomfortable with some of the glares some girls, not in our group, gave me.

"Right, so you already know Blake, Blair and Kerris," he motioned behind me at the three. I nodded letting him continue. "So this is Bliss, she's our sporty and party girl!" He pointed to the girl with a white iPhone and light pink hair. She smiled and gave me a little wave not saying anything.

"That's Braelynn my half sister," Ryder then motioned his hand to the girl next to him, with ombré blue hair which looked really pretty.

"Hai." She smiled and moved her hand as if she was cleaning a window, to introduce herself. I smiled back at her but before I could say anything, Ryder continued.

"The guy on the right is Azriel," he pointed out the guy with the blonde hair sitting next to another guy. "the one next to him is Lyon," the brunette looked up from his phone and smiled. "And at the end is Nolan, Diamonds Brother." Ryder finished of the guys. Nolan had also blonde hair just like Azriel but a little more darker.

The girl sitting on the grass next to Nolan with Blonde and blue dip dyed hair waved, getting my attention, "Hii, I'm Diamond and this is Cora!" She pointed to the girl with black and red dip dyed hair sitting next to her.

"I guess that's everyone." Ryder said, not bothering to give anyone els any attention but me. I smiled and greeted them once again.

Throughout the rest of break we all sat, talked about me and where I came from and laughed. When the bell rang we all headed of to different classes.

After school, I walked home with Braelynn and Ryder. Braelynn was super nice. She didn't seem to judge me or say anything bad about anyone. I never knew everyone in Bournemouth would be so kind and friendly to me.

When I reached home and my internet re connected with my phone, I had several notifications appear. I took it out my pocket and read several notices from FaceTime, Facebook, snapchat and Instagram. I also noticed I had 4 missed calls and 21 new messages. I immediately knew the messages must have been from a group chat with my friends from Coventry.

Walking up to my room I opened up the group messages, they were all talking about me. They were asking about how it's going here and how was school. I noticed I had some private messages from Nath as well.

I opened them up and read that's he had some troubles with his parents again, scrolling threw the messages one caught my attention.

TO: LUNA,
RECEIVED AT 13:37PM

So my parents were arguing again. They're getting divorced 😭

FROM: NATHANIEL

I almost dropped my phone, no! This is really bad! What's even worse is that I can't be there for him right now! I'm not anywhere near him.

Then an idea popped into my head.
