I ran into the garage, whirling around trying to find Jake in the mist of cars. Suddenly, on my right, there was a loud HONKING sound that scared the shit out of me. I scowled as I found Jake trying to contain his laughter. He pointed to the empty seat next to me, emphasizing that I was to ride to school with him. Hell no! Not after all he did, he definitely doesn't deserve my presence. I shook my head once, indicating that if I had to walk to school, I would. But, I'd rather not, since it looked rather muggy out and I'm not much of a runner. He sighed, his dark mask falling back into place. He leaped out of his car, and ran towards me. I used my instincts and ran. Not a great idea, I almost hit an orange car on my left, which would not have ended well. He took the moment to seize my arm and roughly shoved me into his car. Meanie, I though as I stuck my tough out at him. He just rolled his eyes at my immaturity and started the engine.

Don't ask me how he got out of the maze of cars, but miraculously he did. There was an awkward silence between us, so I took the moment to turn on the radio. It was on Y94. Yay, I love this station. And guess what song was on? TODAY WAS A FAIRY TALE! I loved this song! So, I pretty much sang along for the rest of the way:

"Today was a fairytale

You were the prince

I used to be a damsel in distress

You took me by the hand and you picked me up at six

Today was a fairytale

Today was a fairytale

Today was a fairytale

I wore a dress

You wore a dark gray t-shirt

You told me I was pretty when I looked like a mess

Today was a fairytale

Time slows down whenever you're around

But can you feel this magic in the air?

It must have been the way you kissed me

Fell in love when I saw you standing there

It must have been the way

Today was a fairytale

It must have been the way

Today was a fairytale

Today was a fairytale

You've got a smile that takes me to another planet

Every move you make everything you say is right

Today was a fairytale

Today was a fairytale

All that I can say is it's getting so much clearer

Nothing made sense until the time I saw your face

Today was a fairytale

Time slows down whenever you're around

Yeah, yeah

But can you feel this magic in the air?

It must have been the way you kissed me

Fell in love when I saw you standing there

It must have been the way

Today was a fairytale

It must have been the way

Today was a fairytale

Time slows down whenever you're around

I can feel my heart

It's beating in my chest

Did you feel it?

I can't put this down

But can you feel this magic in the air?

It must have been the way you kissed me

Fell in love when I saw you standing there

It must have been the way

But can you feel this magic in the air?

It must have been the way you kissed me

Fell in love when I saw you standing there

It must have been the way

Today was a fairytale

It must have been the way

Today was a fairytale!" I sang loudly as the song came to a close. Jake looked at me, and I stared back coldly.

"What?" I snapped.

"I just never knew you could sing."

"Ya, well now you know." He just turned his eyes back onto the road with a silent shake of his head. I looked out the window and noticed we were already at school. There was a big sign in the grass that said, 'Primrose High'. Who the hell would name their school after a flower? But, whatever, that wasn't my business. Jake parked the car and stopped the engine. I stepped out quickly, wanting to avoid more silent treatment. He got out more slowly, taking his time. People were pouring onto the cement. The sound of chattering was high in the air. Yippee, school, I thought. I miss Alice...a lot.

Jake walked over to a group of hot guys, apparently his best buds. I didn't really want to join them, so I scanned the crowds, looking for someone like me. A gothie. I finally spotted a group that was sitting under the trees, wearing all black with hints of silver. I walked over to them. They became silent, as they looked me over.

Then one of the girls, a blonde chick with her hair cut in heavy layers, giggled at me before extending her hand, "Hey there, new girl! What's your name?"

"Tori, and sorry, but I don't shake hands. Germs, you know?" I smiled slightly, my lips curving to one side. She withdrew her hand with a playful grin.

"I like you already, germ-free Tori!" I laughed, this girl seemed pretty friendly, if not overly bubbly. "Oh, silly me! I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Misty, like when water evaporates into mist! Pretty easy to remember, I'd say. And these are my other friends, Drake," a dark haired emo guy with 2 lip piercings, "Shawna," black-haired girl with a pink streaks running down her bangs, "Sophie," dirty blonde girl with big sunglasses on, "and, last but not least, Cole!" She pointed to a boy with brown hair that had blond highlights in them.

We sat around and listened to Shawna's I-pod. Finally the bell rang, making us jump. We all rushed into the building, that was filling up by the second. Suddenly, there were two arms entwined around me. I looked up and saw Jake. My new friends stared at me with open awe and distaste.

"Uh..." What am I going to say?
