Werewolves...Desires HER Change

Chapter Five...Assonance and Alliteration

Maxine's POV
Hanging out with five out of twenty-nine people was easier than I expected it to be. In fact during the six weeks that they had been at Snow High I had learnt a lot about most of them. Jason was in actual fact just born a jackass or so Jackson said. When he started talking his first words were and I quote "shut up" because at the time baby Jackson was crying over his spilt milk bottle.

Well it explains why he's always say that now 'cus it was his first words. Maybe I should teach him a lesson in English and respect for others.
Jackson was actually happy to hang out with me and my friends. He never asked me to do something if I didn't want to and since they got here me and Jackson had been on ten dates. Well now I know which embryo the gentleman mannerisms went to.

Amber was pretty shy but she had a lot of things to say and tell us. She had actually been born with amber hair and eyes. The natural eye colour suited her yet she thought most people were terrified by how they looked and I told her it was Rubi's eyes that terrified people and finally she had been crushing on Jason since they turned 13. That being said they must have known each other since before then. Long history, still friends, girl has crush on boy, boy doesn't know... WAIT A SECOND! This is a girl meets boy book isn't it?! Oh no! That can't be true I'm sure it's just coincidental. Right?

Rubi was a chatterbox no doubt about it and she loved to talk about all that was going on in school. She even told us that Brad and Nina were breaking up just before they told everyone at lunch break. Was Rubi psychic? No I highly doubt it if she was then... she'd use her powers fir evil reasons.

"Hey, Maxine! Over here the seats are open."

Rubi waved her arms madly in the air to show me where they were sitting. Not too far from the stage but also not directly in front of it. Which was good because Mr Loomran had a bulbous nose and it was nor pleasant to look at.

It was Friday morning, the end of the sixth week, and Mr Loomran-the school's headmaster- was about to announce who won the Best Poets competition. It was a yearly event and frankly the year 11's only submitted their poetry because we had nothing better to do. Even the council's work was hitting hitting a low this term with no school trouble or events needing to be planned.

Actually I wonder what the prize is this year? Probably some poetry book written by a poet as usual. Where's Beaulique? She's never missed the competitions announcements. Last year she won by chance. Probably only because she was one out of ten people who actually bothered to write a poem.

"Hey! We're here!"

Rubi continued the mad arm wave and Jason attempted to get her to sit down. I found Beaulique sitting in between Farren and Jason. Farren and Beaulique seemed to be engrossed in their conversation and didn't notice when I sat down next to Rubi. I heard snippets of their conversation as Jason sitting just next to Amber began talking with them.

"Yeah but... it's not... do you think... of course not, Beaulique. Jason is... no we can't... she shouldn't know... she's not like us... she'll never be like us... no... of course I want to tell her... let's just..."
 Farren kept on talking to Beaulique and she continued to talk back. I couldn't hear a word that Beaulique was saying and it was hard to even try and imagine what Farren was talking about.

What are they talking about? Does it have to do with me? Hopefully not. Jason leaned over to tell them to keep it down the assembly was about to start.

'Okay everyone as you all know the poetry has been read and the English and Art teachers have decided a winner for this year."

There was a loud bang as the Assembly Hall's doors were slammed open. I even saw Jason cover his ears. Jackson came walking down the aisle and sat down on the last seat on the left side of Rubi.
