Ruby's POV:
I walked towards my locker as I felt a hand on my shoulder. "Hi, Ruby," Ruby smiled at me. "Hey," I said in response. "Can this girl, I believe her name is -Sapphire yes- Sapphire sit with us at lunch?" I now looked at the bunch group of Rubys. "Sure," they both said one after the other.
      "Ruby has a crush,"  the Ruby farther back teased with a smirk.
     "Shut up, Ruby," I demanded as I opened the door to my locker.
     "We'll talk to you after class," the other Ruby said.
     I wish I had class with at least one of them. I was the only Ruby who was in GT as well as the only one who's averages reached above a thirty-five percent. I picked up a red binder and a purple folder then closed the door of my locker. I turned to see Sapphire standing practically frozen in fear as a group of kids led by Jasper walked through the hall.
     "Eee," I heard before I looked to my left to see Peridot hidding behing Lapis Lazuli.
     "Why are you hidding?" I called to her.
     "Jasper,you clod!" she yelled shaking her head slightly to the left and right.
     "Why aren't you hiddin, little girl?" Jasper hissed at me, with his face close enough to slap- if my arms weren't so short that is.
     "I'm not a girl," I sassed.
     "Neither am I," Jasper said as he slapped me across the face.
     "You're a bully!" I yelled at him. I hit him back but to no avail.
     "And you're a weak little boy. Why don't you go cry to your mommy, little baby?" Jasper laughed hitting me in the stomach, sending me to the floor.
     What a jerk! I began to feel my whole body heat up. "Don't get mad, Ruby, don't get mad," I whispered to myself.
     "What was that?" Jasper grinned with a mocking tone in his voice.
     I was just about to hit the crap out of that punk when a pair of hands wrap around my waist. "Huh?" I was confused as I was pulled back into reality. When I saw the pail hands aroud me I knew it wasn't a Ruby.
      "It's okay," I heard Sapphire's reassuring voice as she turned me around so I would no longer be facing Jasper.
      "Sapphire?" my eyes filled with tears of embarrassment and anger.
      "It's okay, Ruby," she said in a calming voice with a smile on her face.
      "I...I," I tried to explain then as I thought about what had just happened let the tears fall. Sapphire's cold hands sent chills throughout my entire body as she wiped my tears away. "I didn't mean to get so mad, I just...I," I again tried to explain, but feel short again.
      "It's okay, really," she chuckled. "I'll talk to you after class," she waved as she began to walk away. I wiped away one more of my tears before walking towards my math class.
      "Clod," Peridot repeated.
      "The only 'clod' here is you," I pointed at her as I said this.
      "Clody dumb-dumb," Peridot mumbled to herself.
      "You're the 'dumb-dumb'," I argued then realised Lapis was asleep.
      "What are you staring at?" Peridot asked, "Are you looking at Lapis?"
      " Is she asleep?" I looked up at the tall girl (although both of them were taller than me.)
      " I guess so," Peridot shrugged.
      "Bye-bye, dumb-dumb," I turned around and started to walk away as Peridot nudged Lapisbawake.
      "We're y'all talking about lolipops?" Lapis' eyes opened looking straight at Peridot.
      "No, that guy's just being a clod," I heard Peridot answer before they walked seperate directions.

Sapphire's POV:
      He seemed so sweet this morning. "I'll talk to you after class," I waved and bagan to walk away.
     "Hey, Sapphire," my friend, Garnet smiled at me as I stopped at my locker to get my books for my next class.
     "Hi, Garnet," I said in return. Garnet helped me get my science book and I just looked at her wavey green and white hair. "Thank you," I told her retrieving my book from her hands.
      "You're welcome," she shut her locker and walked away as I shut mine.
      "Join Theatre classes," I heard Jammie call out as he stood in the middle of the hallway. I got a flyer from him and kept walking to my class.

Lapis' POV:
     "Theatre sounds interesting," Peridot looked up at me. I shrugged and got two flyers, handing her one and keeping the other.
     "I thought you were going to class," I looked at her.
     "I forgot my binder," she folded her flyer up and tucked it away in her pocket. I began to walk away untill I tripped over something.
     "Good morning to you too, Jasper,"I grabbed his hand as he helped me up. "Why do you hate Peridot so much?" I asked him.
     "I was loyal to her mom and you heard what Blue Zircon said," Jasper answered with anger in every word he said.
     "Peridot's not her mother," I told Jasper.
     "What's the differance? They're both Diamonds, royalty. They'll never have to work a day in their lives and always have more than I could ever earn. I was loyal to her mother and now I don't even have one of my own," he bitterly stated.
     "I have to get to class, Jasper. I want you to know Peridot is sweeter than you think she is and she isn't like her mother," I said to him.
     "Bye, Lapis," it sounded like he wanted to say more, but didn't.
     "Bye, Jasper," I returned with a smirk.
