"Anime?" Was the first words out of Jess' mouth.

"Huh?" I ask. Jess Tati looks at me shocked. Tati and Jess look at each other then bavk at me. Tati hands me a book. It was a comic but in... book form.

"It seems cool." I say flippng through. They gasp.

"Oh gawd." Adam says.

"Youre. Reading. It. The. Wrong. Way." Jess says looking terrified.

"Oh... I-im sorry ma'am. H-here you sh-should have I-it b-back." I studder.

"No you dont have t-" I cut her off.

"I-i need to use the bathroom." I say getting up from my seat.

"O-ok." They both say.

I walk to the girl bathroom. I sit in the large stall at the end. I start sobbing.

"Th-there goes the ch-chance of n-new f-friends." I hug my knees up to my chest. I cross my arms over them and cry into my arms.

I sob louder.

"G-gel?" I hear a female voice. I calm down before answering.

"Y-yes?" I asnwer.

"Its Tati... are you okay?" She asks standing infrnt of the stall.

"Y-yes..." I stammer.

"It doesnt sound like it..." he says putting a hand on the door. I wipe my face. I get up and unlock the door.

"Jess and I were kidding. We didint know... im sorry." She says half smiling.

"I-its okay." I say. I grab a paper towel and wipe my face off.

"Oh and keep this between you and I please." I say.

"Okay." She says and we walk out.

We sit back down at the table. We had an hour and a hald left of free time.

"What happened in there?" Rss asks.

"Nothing. I had to use the restroom then fix hair." I lie.

"Okay." He says.

We were walking to the park. Ross and I were. Tati and Max were reading, Adam and Alesa were studying, and Jess and Jin were helping a teacher out.

We make it to the park and find a bench.

"So are they all couples?" I ask Ross.

"What do you mean?" He asks.
