High School with the Big Eight (Discontinued)

Chapter 5

Finally! It's lunchtime! I could really use something to eat.

I fell and waited in line to serve me. When it was done, I saw Nikki, Medusa, and Pandora. I went to their table right away.

"What took you so long? Are you still busy making the homework?" Pandora asked.

"I-I don't know," I replied. Well, it's not necessary to answer all of her questions, right? I turned to Nikki and Medusa.

"Nikki," I began. "I didn't see you at the end of Homeroom. What happened to you?" They exchanged looks.

"We can't find you after the bell rang," said Nikki. "Oh, and this is Medusa. The girl I've been talking about to you earlier."

"Hi," she said to me.

I smiled. "Hello," I said back. Everyone has their unique personality here. It's so amazing!

Two minutes later, two girls came to our table. One has a fire-gold hair and the other one has a short, spiky orange hair. And she has also orange lip gloss. Seriously? That's one of the rarest color for a lip gloss.

"Hi everyone!" the orange haired girl said in a sunny voice. After a while, she sat next to me.

"You're Thea, right?"the fire-gold haired girl asked me. How did she know my name? I haven't told my name to her. But I just nodded anyway.

"I'm Cassandra and sitting beside you is Pheme," she introduced.

"Hi there! Haven't see you around here. Welcome to the academy!" welcomed Pheme. Know what's weird? Every time she spoke, the words coming out from her mouth were forming words above of her head so everyone can read. Maybe because of the lip gloss?

"Thanks," I just said anyway.

There was a small silence until I started another conversation. "Um, Cassandra," I started.

"Yes," she answered.

"I was just asking if how did you know my name," I continued.

Everyone at our table has their eyes on me. I'm just asking. I don't know you deeper, I said to myself.

Cassandra opened her mouth, as if she has something to say. But she closed it.

"Why did she know your name? She's the fortune teller of the batch," Medusa told me. My jaw dropped again. But I closed it right away.

"So what you're saying is her fortunes actually happen?" I asked. They nodded in response.

Pheme leaned near me and whispered to my ear, "So better watch out." She leaned back after that.

Now guess what I saw. It was those two boys who bumped me earlier. "It's them," I muttered aloud.

"Who?" asked Pandora

I pointed my finger to them. "Is there something wrong with them? Did they do something bad to you?" asked Pandora.

"Maybe. I don't know," I replied to her questions.

She raised again another question. "Do you know their names?" I just shook my head to answer her.

"Let me introduce me to them," Pheme told me. "That one is Eugene and beside him is Hiccup."

"Hiccup?" I echoed. "That's a weird name. Where's their table?"

"Right there," said Pheme, pointing to the table at the middle of the cafeteria.

"On that table lies the most popular love teams and students in the academy," she continued. "I will enumerate them to you one by one. Kristanna stands for Kristoff and Anna, Mericcup for Merida and Hiccup, Eugenzel for Eugene and Rapunzel and the most famous of all, Jelsa for Jack and Elsa."

My eyes lit up upon hearing Elsa's name. "Wait did you say 'Elsa'?" I repeated.

"Yes. Why did you meet?" questioned Pheme.

"Mm-hmm. She was in my Science at second period."

I finished my lunch and I got up from my table. "I better get going now," I told them.

"Okay. Pheme and I will just gather up all of our trays," replied Cassandra.

We walked out of the cafeteria. I went to my locker to get my stuff for the next class. After I closed the locker shut, Kyle was there.

"Hi Kyle. I didn't see back there,"  I said nervously.

"It's fine. My locker is just next to you so I waited for you," he said shyly.

"Is there something you have to ask me?" I asked him. Please, I hope not for a date! I really don't know him yet.

"I was just asking if you already asked permission from your parents," he answered. I arched an eyebrow. Do I remember anything about that?

"Remember the pair homework in Homeroom?" he reminded. Then like lightning, I remembered.

"Oh, yeah. Right," I realized. "I have already asked permission as long as I don't miss dinner." I paused fora a while. "Where's your house?"

"Not far," replied Kyle. Just in that village."

"I lived there,too," I gasped.

The bell rang again. "I better get going. See you later after class?"

"Sure. Bye."

I waved to him and went to my next class.
