The next day I'm exhausted so I get coffee at the coffee shop nearby and head to school. I'm dreading school today. I kept waking up in the middle of the night thinking I was hearing noises in the house but I know it was my mind playing tricks on me.

When I get to school I work in my normal spot and walk into school. I see Jessica near her locker talking to a girl with blonde hair. When I get closer I realize it's Jessica's girlfriend. Samara. Jessica sees me and smiles.

"Ava! Hey! This is Samara," she said introducing me to the blonde girl. We shake hands.

"Hi, I've heard so much about you," I say. She smiles at me.

"I hope it was all good," she said. Jessica smiles.

"Of course."

"So, you're new today?" I asked still confused on why she is hear.

"She transferred here from a school farther away," Jessica said. I nod and sip my coffee. Then I see Pricilla and Melody walking over.

"Incoming," I say in a low voice. Jessica turns around.

"Who's this?" Melody asks. Pricilla has her lips pressed into a firm line. I know that look. She doesn't approve.

"This is Samara, she just transferred here." Jessica says in the coolest voice possible.

"Cool, I'm Melody and that's Pricilla," Melody says. Pricilla doesn't say anything.

"Nice to meet you all," Samara says.

"Melody come on we have to get to class," Pricilla says suddenly and drags Melody away. She knows we have the same class together right? I ignore her and see Brandon. He walks over to me and I smile.

"Samara this is Ava's...friend Brandon." I flinch at her pause in the sentence.

"She just transferred here," I say. They shake hands.

"See you at lunch?" I nod at Jess and raise my eyebrows a little, hinting I need to talk to her. She nodded.

"Bye Samara," I smile. Brandon waves and we both walk away together.

"Is that her girlfriend?" Brandon asks lowly. I nod. "Did you know she was coming her today?"

"No I didn't. You should have seen Pricilla's face when she introduced her," I laugh. He smiled and we continue walking. The bell rings right as we walk into the classroom and Brandon's and I part ways. I sit next to Pricilla and she immediately turns to me.

"Who is that girl?" She demanded.

"Jessica's friend. Will you relax?" I said pulling out my notebook.

"Relax? You realize she's going to bring her to eat lunch with us right?"

"She has a name Pricilla and it's not that big of a deal. She's really nice," I said as the teacher starts talking.
