Cross' P.O.V

I felt my eyes open slowly...I sat up and rubbed my eyes, Everything was blurry. I reached out and grabbed my glasses and putting them on, I got up from bed and went into the bathroom. I got out of my gray shirt and black shorts and put on a light grey shirt and grey pants on. I grabbed my brush and combed my hair then pulled my hoodie on, I looked into the mirror and rolled my eyes, I pulled my hood up and grabbed my backpack and sketchbook. I walked out the apartment into the cold air, the first thing I saw was...Aw shit. I quickly shut the door and ran toward the bus stop, my lungs already started to burn, I quickly got into the bus and took a seat, I panted softly while I tired to catch my breath. I looked outside to see the snow gently landing on the snow, it was so colorful outside due to the Christmas lights reflecting off the window. I sighed softly and pressed my hand up against the window to see my grey hand. If you hadn't figure it out already in Blank...I lost all my color a while back...I got kicked out of my old school due to certain reasons and now I'm here...close to Christmas...I don't specifically like the holiday because I can't feel any emotion... except negative ones...

"Alright...it doesn't matter... your gonna get kicked out of here soon anyway...so just keep your head down and be cold...don't talk to anyone... and you'll be fine..."

I thought to myself as I saw the school come into view, I sighed loudly and stuffed my sketchbook into my backpack.. being a sophomore and a Blank...this'll be one hell of a day...

??? P.O.V

I was talking to my friends happily,I was wearing a white t-shirt with a jean jacket, dark blue jeans and brown boots. "So are you guys going to join the art contest?" I asked excited. "Ya! I can't wait!" Mary said. "Heh. I know your going to get first place Meg." I felt my cheeks burn slightly, I rubbed my neck and smiled nervously. "H-Heh. Thanks Mary." I said nervously. She nodded, right then the bell ringed. "That's the bell! See you later Meg!" Mary said while running to class. I smiled and ran to my class as well...

"Hello class! Welcome back!" The teacher said. We all said good morning like the usual. "Today we have a new student! And PLEASE be nice to her!" The teacher said with a hint of worry in her voice. I raised a eyebrow confused. That's when the door opened, a girl stood there but...she was a Blank. Her hair was a dark grey,her face light grey, she had light grey ears and a tail with the tips of them being black,she was basically grey and black to put it out there. Everyone stared at her like they never seen a Blank in their lives, we never had a Blank in our class this year so this was the first. "How are you?" The teacher asked. The girl simply nodded and looked at the teacher with a blank expression. "May I take a seat now?" She asked. Here voice was emotionless and cold. "Yes. You may sit with Meg. Raise your hand please Meg." I raised my hand happily and said. "Right here." She simply nodded and walked over to me and sat down next to me. "Okay class. So who would want to do the first problem today?" I raised my hand. "I will." The teacher nodded and walked over to me with the piece of chalk in her hand. I grabbed it and walked over to the chalk board and started to work on the problem. I started to hear some kids whisper about the new girl, but they weren't anything nice. "That's right. You may now sit down." I nodded with a smile and sat back down. The girl just kept her gaze in her...sketchbook? I was immediately drawn to the book and glanced at it slightly, she was drawing something from UnderTale, my eyes lit up. I shook my head and looked back at my worksheet and started to work, it was simple but of course boring.

After finishing my homework early I heard the bell ring. "Alright class. That's the bell. Go to your next class." Everyone got up and started to walk out, the girl closed her sketchbook and got up, pulling her black headphones on and walking away. I packed my stuff and turned my homework in early before walking out of class as well. I immediately saw the girl, people were staring at her while she walked past. I frowned slightly and walked toward her, I heard people giggle and laugh and she walked pass them. I gently tapped her shoulder,she turn her head slightly to see me, she pulled her headphones off and nodded. "Do you want me to help you to your next class? Since your new here and all." I said warmly. She looked at me up and down and nodded slightly. "Okay! Can I see the schedule?" She handed me her schedule and I looked at it, I felt my eyes lit up. "You and me have most of these classes together! That's cool." She just nodded, I handed her the schedule back and started to walk with her to our next class. A lot of kids looked at us confused, especially the colorful people. The girl kept her head down while I waved to some people I saw in the hallways. I heard complements about my outfit, even though it was simple, I guess you can say people thought I was "popular". It gets annoying times but it does have its pros, no one messing you or calling you names most of the time, and everyone pretty much leaves you alone. "Hey girl!" One of the boys yelled. "The 70's called! They want their color back!" The girl looked in their direction and looked away, unamused. "Alright! We're here! This class is gym! You have your uniform?" The girl nodded. "Also...can I have your name? If that's okay with you." She looked at me for about for a minute before walking to the gym, I felt kinda sad. "...It's Cross." She said softly. I looked back up at her and smiled, I ran over to her and grabbed her hand. "Come on! We're going to be late!" I said with a smile. I ran as so did she, not pulling away from me.
