When the bell rings, Blaire grabs her things and gets up, ready to head to math. Milo grabs his things and also gets up. "I'll see you soon for Drama rehearsals." He says, walking out of the classroom. Blaire walks out of the class and heads to math, dreading seeing the three boys. 'Maybe they'll leave me alone.' She thinks to herself. Oh, how wrong she is.

Walking into the math class, Blaire is pulled into a seat. All three boys are sitting with her. "What do you three want?" She questions. "Your number." Kane says, winking at her. "Not happening." She growls, standing up. "Leave me the hell alone." She says. "All of you. Or I'll get my brother involved." She adds in a threatening tone.

"Ooh~ Feisty~." Alex says, smirking at the girl. "You won't get anyone involved, Blaire Bear." Adrian says. Blaire's eyes slightly widen. "How...Don't you dare call me that ever again, you little shit." Blaire growls out, getting angry. Only Blake can call her 'Blaire Bear.'

Adrian chuckles. "Or what? I'll call you whatever I like, Blaire Bear~." He smirks, folding his arms over his chest. Blaire thinks about punching him. But she can't get into trouble. She doesn't want to disappoint Blake. So, instead, she walks away to another desk. She sits down, her fists tightly clenched. Her hands feel cold. But she ignores it, telling herself there's just a draft in the room.

The class starts when the teacher walks in. All through the class, Blaire feels angry and upset. She hates other people using her nickname. It's something only her family should be allowed to call her. It was her father who first came up with the nickname before he and Blaire's mother died in a car crash. Hearing the bell ringing, Blaire grabs her things and stands up, not noticing the small amount of frost formed on her desk. She quickly walks out of the room to avoid the boys. "Blaire! Hey." Damian says, walking beside her. "Hey Damian. How's your morning going?" She asks him, feeling calmer with him around.

"My morning is going alright. How about yours? You looked kinda angry coming out of the classroom." Damian points out. "Ugh. A few boys are being total jerks." She says, sighing in annoyance. "They won't leave me alone." Blaire adds. "Which boys?" Damian asks. "Alex, Kane and Adrian." She says.

"Want me to talk to them?" Damian asks, a hidden meaning behind his offer. "No. It's fine. I'll talk to Blake about it. He'll deal with them without violence. Maybe some harsh words and threats." She says. "Wanna come to the rehearsal room?" She asks him, looking up into his eyes. "Sure." He says, smiling down at her. "Awesome. Milo and I are doing a scene from Romeo and Juliet for our class. We'll get a grade for it after we perform."

"Who's Milo?" Damian asks. "My best friend. You'll like him. He's awesome." Blaire says, smiling at him. Damian nods, returning her smile. They both walk into the rehearsal room. Blaire is pulled into a tight hug. "Hey Blaire!" Milo says, grinning at his best friend. Blaire hugs back, chuckling. "Hey Milo. Ready for an afternoon of rehearsing?" She questions. 

"Heh. Yeah. We get to skip two classes. And it will be awesome to get our scripts down today." Milo says, grinning. "That would be awesome. I'm actually ready to practice without my script." Blaire says, smiling. "Same! Oh, who's this." Milo asks, gesturing to Damian. "This is Damian. My tutor and new friend." Blaire says. "It's nice to meet you. I'm Milo." Milo says to Damian, smiling kindly at him.

"It's nice to meet you too, Milo." Damian says, smiling back at him. "Okay. Lets start practicing." Milo says, sitting down on the stage with his script beside him. Blaire sits down with him, leaving her script in her bag. Damian sits in a chair in front of the stage, watching the two as they start practicing. The two practice all through the lunch hour and continue until their last period. They both have Chemistry with Damian. Who had left the rehearsal room after lunch.

"Lets quickly get to Chemistry." Milo says, grabbing his bag. Blaire nods and grabs her bag as she stands up. She walks with Milo to the Chemistry class, a small smile on her face. She thinks she finally understands the work they're doing.

Walking into the class, Milo and Blaire both walk to the back and sit down. Damian walks in and sits at the desk in front of Blaire with his friend Colin. Blaire smirks. She's kind of excited to have dinner with Damian and his family. The lesson starts when the teacher walks in. "Good afternoon, everyone." Mr Williams greets the class.

The lesson grgs on. Mr Williams assigns homework and a group project. Blaire is in a group with Milo, Colin, Damian and herself. She's glad she's in a group with her best friend and her new friend. When the bell rings for the end of the day, all of the students pack up and rush out of the room. Damian waits for Blaire. Milo leaves, hurrying to go catch a bus to get home.

Blaire packs up her stuff, smiling at Damian. "Okay. I'm ready to go." She says, standing up. She walks with Damian out of the school and towards her house which is a few blocks away. "So tell me about yourself, Blaire." Damian says, smiling down at her. "Hmm. I like art. And music. I'm 16 years old and I hope one day I can help people like my brother does." Blaire replies. "Your brother?" Damian questions. "Yeah. He's a police officer. I'm really proud of him. He's just got a job at GCPD."

"That's awesome." Damian says, smiling at Blaire. "Yeah. H'll be home a little after us." She says, returning his smile. They walk for awhile longer, both enjoying the silence. "What kind of music do you like?" Damian suddenly asks her. "I really like rock music. My favourite band is Panic! At the disco." She says, her smile lighting up her eyes.

"Cool. What's your favourite color?" Damian asks. "Purple. It goes with almost everything." Blaire says, walking up the porch steps to the front door. Blaire unlocks the front door and walks inside. "Welcome to my house. Do you want something to drink? We have water, apple juice or milk." She says, putting her bag down by the sofa. "I'm okay. Alfred will be here in an hour to pick us up." He tells her. "Okay. I'll be down in a bit. Make yourself at home." She says, walking uo the stairs to her bedroom. She closes the door, walks over to her closet and looks through it for somethin to wear. Sighing, Blaire pulls out a pair of black skinny jeans, a gray tank top, a gray hoodie and her black leather jacket. She quickly gets dressed and pulls on her black coverse hightops.
