Janette's POV

I bid goodbye to Gabrielle and the others once lunch ended and headed on to my next class which was Geometry. After another period we all had another break.

Gabrielle found me and told me to come hang with them but I told her I wanted to be alone for a bit. Let's say I still wasn't used to my new acquaintances, as Mahogany put it that way. After all this is just my first day with them. Then she told me if I changed my mind I could find them at the fountain.

History was my last period so I headed to room 117. The teacher was not yet in the room, I guess i came a bit early. I loved history. I loved learning about the Roman Empire, Renaissance period, the Victorian Era and to the Revolutions and of course World War II. I sat on the desk near the window in the middle row as more students came in. I flipped open my History book and started reading the lesson for advanced reading.

"Hey Janette" I heard someone call me and patted my shoulder. It was Shawn.

"Hi" I replied,concentrating on the module.

"Whatcha reading?" He asked

"Well, Im reading about the French Revolution, The reign of terror was simply devastating. Did you know that it was ordered by Robespierre to guillotine thousands suspected enemies of the said revolution with no trials! That's BAZOOBS !!" I exclaimed.

Shawn just laughed at my expression

"I...Im sorry it's just that I really really enjoy this subject" I told him

"Nah it's fine, I find it quite interesting too" he says, strumming his guitar again to the tune of Ed Sheeran's Give Me Love

I keep on reading the book as he plays the guitar while humming. He's really plays well.

"So, why werent you able to hang out with us a while ago?"

"Well I just had to fix my locker because someone from the popular kids stole my stuff." Oh and Im also a little chicken who's awkward and enjoys solitude as much as a kid who loved milk and cookies.

It's true but I didnt say that part.Ofcourse.

"Ignore them Janette, I bet they're just jealous of how wonderful and nice you are."

Really ? I don't know, we met only hours ago. I bet you'll take back those words as soon as youve seen the other side of me. Just wait and see Shawn.

I just shrugged.

"Gabrielle and the others think youre really nice, The rest of Magcon would love to meet you as well, I think youre nice too." He said the last one a bit shyly.

"I..guess so."

"I know you are" he smiled, patting me on the back

"Can I touch your red streaks?" he added

"Excuse me?" I laughed a bit

"Your red streaks, can i touch it?"

"Oh uh sure, Why though?" I said as he gently grabbed strands of the streaks and observed them.

"It looks good on you" he smiled again, putting the strands back.

I blushed a bit, not knowing what to say next.

I wanted to ask Shawn a few more questions but then a short statured girl entered in the room, and everyone is in silence.

"I'm sorry I'm late class the faculty had an emergency meeting, anyways, Im Mrs. Davidson but you can call me Mrs. Lynn." she said as she puts down her stuff on the table. Unexpectedly she has a small voice.
