oh boy. Today's the day....my first day of school. I look at the outfit i chose for the day and it's pretty decent. I walk into the kitchen and sit down to have some pancakes. '' Come on Lil we're gonna be late."mom yells dragging Lilac out of her room. "No no , i don't wanna go to a new school." I roll my eyes and keep eating my pancakes. JJ seems excited-ish he's never really excited for anything, he's always so cool and calm. "come on we should get going" Rita says heading out the door followed by JJ. I get up and drag Lil out the apartment and lock the door.
Here goes nothing.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ok, Ok. we're here. "get out off the car L" i hear Jason say pulling me out of my thoughts. I get out out of the car and get my bag out of the trunk. This is it. Beacon. Jason goes in first in first and i follow. Not before saying goodbye to Rita and Lil of course. As soon as i enter i already see a group of girls probably juniors like JJ checking him out. I roll my eyes and head to the principle's office for my schedule and locker number. "hey you forgetting something?" i hear jason say as i go to find my locker. I turn to him and give him a hug."Good luck" I say to him before walking away again. "don't need it" he says and walks away. I roll my eyes and look for my locker.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After a while of searching i find my locker. I see two girls right beside who seem to be in a really deep conversation. I guess i should start making friends since they look about my age. "hey, you're standing in my way" I say to the girl with long black hair and rosy cheeks. I wish i was as pretty as her. "oh, sorry. Um...ah are you new. If you are then hi i'm Renee. It's french. not really sure what it means but yeah. What's you're name" She says really giddily. I look at her a moment before answering . "um... I'm Lavender but uh you can call me Lav or L or whatever"I say holding out my hand for her to shake. i know it's a bit formal but i don't really care. It kinda makes me feel way more mature than i am. Surprisingly she took my hand and shook it rather vigorously. With a huge grin.
That's when i noticed her freckles. Could this girl get any prettier? "well Lav welcome to Beacon. We've only been here for like half a semester. See we're freshmen." "Oh and I'm Izzy,well isabel if you want to use my full name. Did you move here?" says the other girl who was talking to Renee.
I tell them about my family and stuff and i find out that they've been best friends since pre-school . I think it's pretty cool. I find out that Renee lives in the same apartment building i do. Different floors of course. i can't believe how excited she is about it. "we should probably get a head start before the bell rings. What's your first class L?" Renee asks. "oh English with Mrs. ..." "Stewart? thats are first class too. Izzy's mom is the teacher. She makes the best peanut butter cookies" Renee interrupts. "Yeah We'll lead the way come on" Izzy says before taking off. i follow them to my first class of the day.
So far so good. Let's hope it stays that way.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
English was interesting. Mrs Stewart seems pretty nice. I had two more classes with Renee and one more with Izzy after lunch. Right now we're sitting in the cafeteria eating lunch. Got to admit i miss lunch at my old school. This stuff sucks. Just then JJ comes up to our table.
"hey L" Renee and Izzy start blushing like crazy and subtly roll my eyes. "how's your day so far?" he asks not noticing the girls checking him out right in front of him. "Pretty good JJ . Uh... This is Renee and Izzy" I introduce my two new friends to him. "Renee lives in our apartment building" i tell him."Oh well hope to see you around then.You know," he says putting his arm around me. "a friend of my baby sister is a friend of mine" He's clearly trying to embarrass me.Really Jason. "Ew get away from me JJ" i say and he puts up his hands in a defensive manner before getting up. "yeesh alright. I'll leave see ya later" he walks away and heads over to a table he's being called to by some guys.
"that's Jason!"Izzy says kinda yelling. "Girl you didn't tell me your brother was so hot". "And cute,And dreamy" Renee says ."And might i add hella Fine" Izzy finishes while doing some finger snap thing."does he have a girlfriend?" She asks. "don't be dense of course he does iz, how can anyone that cute not be in a relationship"Renee tells her looking kinda disappointed . " actually, none that i know of and Jason doesn't keep secrets from me so i guess he's single but my brother is off limits""Awww" they both groan in unison.

third person point of view
After school Renee hitches a ride with Lavender and Jason since she usually walks home . To lav's surprise, Renee doesn't even glance at JJ once which is weird considering how she acted earlier today. When they get back to the apartment building they go to Lav's apartment since Renee isn't expected back home by this time. L shows Renee all her posters and they seemed to chat on and on about their dreams and ambitions. Renee even invites Lavender to live in Paris with her and izzy which is something they planned to do since they were in kindergarten.
Whiles the two girls were discussing how cute Tom Holland is Jason comes into room. without knocking. Stupid.And guess what he's shirtless with only a towel around his waist. "uh hey L can i borrow some toothpaste" "yeah sure" she runs into the bathroom leaving Renee and jason In an aaaawwwwkward silence."hey" Jason says trying to make the situation less awkward but he probably only makes it worse "hi,uh...Jason right?"she says trying to sound cool. "yeah uh..Renee" he replies. "ding ding ding, you got it" she says making him chuckle. She giggles and just as things a re getting less awkward L comes back with the toothpaste"here you go now get out of my room"She points to he door. "love you too sis"Jason jokes before leaving.
"don't" Lav says turning to Renee. "what i didn't say anything, i'm actually kind of over your brother" "mhmhm, sure you are".
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After Renee leaves i decide to go have a talk with brother dearest."What the hell was that?" i asked. "what was what?"oh no don't go innocent on me know. "don't play dumb you knew Renee was in my room and you just had to parade in shirtless! And i know you didn't need toothpaste." "i don't know what you're talking about L" He shrugs. "ugh, and for your information she isn't into you" i tell him before walking out and banging the door.
God my brother is such an ass
