Battle Of The Bitches. [5SOS]

Chapter 1

Chapter 1
Alex's POV

Being the new kid at a new school where you know absolutely nobody is never fun. I hate that I have to experience it, but I'm happy that my dad is pursuing his job.

I was nervous because I hadn't really met anyone besides my Chemistry partner, and I accidentally forgot to get his name. It was lunch time and I was walking around like an idiot, by myself. I sat down at a random table, and started eating by myself. As I took a bite of the pizza they were serving I looked up to see the Chemistry boy standing in front of me.

"Hey, Alex. Do you want to come sit over there with us?" he asked, pointing at the table he came from.

I nodded, and got up. "I never got your name." I admitted.

"I'm Michael," he said, as he sat down and patted the seat next to him. I placed my tray on the table and took a seat. There were four other people sitting there, three boys and one girl. The girl had long brown hair and she was really pretty, I remember her from Chemistry too. Two of the boys had dirty blonde hair, but one was curlier than the other, the other boy had black hair. "This is Alex guys."

"Hi!!!" the three boys said in unison, they seemed very cheery. The girl didn't say anything, but continued to eat. That was a bit rude, but I didn't say anything.

"That's Calum," Michael said pointing at the black haired one, he gave a small wave as Michael said his name. "Luke," he said pointing at the one with straight blonde hair, "and Ashton."

"The pooped hair girl over there is Payton," Michael said and the guys started laughing.

"Michael!!" she whined in anger, throwing her banana at him.

Michael chuckled, "she's my best friend."

"Yeah, for now." she muttered, still angry at his 'poop' comment.

"Oh, you know you love me!" Michael said, picking up his pizza. Michael and I were the only ones at the table who got pizza, Ashton and Luke both got tacos, while Calum got spaghetti and Payton went with a salad.

"Pizza is the best," Michael mumbled, wiping his face with a napkin.

"Agreed." I commented. "My favorite."

"Mine too!" Michael said in excitement. "I like you."

I blushed when he said that, but I knew he meant as a friend. I looked up from my tray to see Payton glaring at me, but maybe I was just imagining it. She looked away, and continued to eat her salad.

"Thanks for letting me sit with you," I said to Michael as we walked down the hallway.

"No problem." he said, "see you later.

I waved at him as I walked to my next class. I glanced at my schedule one more time making sure I had the room number. Room 106.

My next class was art, and I spotted Payton from lunch sitting at a table by the window. "Hi!" I said, sitting down next to her.

She didn't acknowledge me, she had one headphone in her ear and tapped her finger on the table to the music.

"Y'know, it's not very kind to ignore someone." I mentioned, and she looked up at me. She just shrugged, picking up her phone to change the song.

"Mike might like you," Payton started, "but I don't."

She put in the other headphone, so I couldn't reply. What a cunt.

"Hope you're all having a good day, class." the teacher said, he was a man dressed in a simple navy blue button up with black jeans. "Johnson, earbuds out!"
