kiwi's cookie run oneshots and headcanons!

high school (oneshot)

Hi, Kiwi here!
I just want to thank all of my readers for reading my small book! Every vote or comment means tons to me!
I would also greatly appreciate it if you checked out my other books! If you haven't read The Time I Was Human yet, I would highly recommend reading through it because some future one shots will have plots relating to TTIWH. Also, it would be awesome if you read my book Kingdom of Loathing (the new one)! It may seem like shameful advertising, but for those of you who love humor you're missing out on chapters of jokes.
That's it! I would really appreciate any small gesture! Thanks!!

*this story takes place when lemon and orange were still seventeen so h-

***

Lemon shut his locker and locked it. Today was the first day of eleventh grade, and he wasn't looking forward to meeting new classmates. It was unfortunate, because out of the eight class periods he had, only two of them were with Orange. She was practically the only person he knew.

As he turned around, he bumped into Orange who happened to be waiting for him.

"Yikes!" he stumbled back. "You scared me!"

"Sorry!" Orange apologized. "Just wanted to see if you were ready for the first day!"

"Not really..." Lemon shrugged, slipping his backpack onto his shoulder. "Just a little nervous."

"You'll be fine!" she reassured, patting his shoulder. "Try to make some new friends!"

With that, the bell rang and they both rushed off to first period.

Lemon's first period was science, so he entered a classroom full of science-y stuff he didn't really understand. He noticed his name tag on a table so he sat down in that chair. Beside him sat a girl with magenta hair and a green headband. She also had hot pink eyes and wore a sleeveless hoodie.

"Sup!" the girl greeted. "I'm Grapefruit and I'm guessing you're Lemon."

"You got that right," Lemon sighed as he hung his backpack on the back of his chair.

"Alright, class!" the teacher announced. "The seat you're sitting in is your seat for the entire year! You will be lab partners with your table mate! Any objections, email me at the end of class! Now go introduce yourself or whatever!"

Grapefruit seems fine enough, Lemon thought. I think I'll just try to be acquainted with her.

"Wanna shake hands so we can confirm our partnership?" Grapefruit asked as she held out her hand. "Don't worry, it's what I always do when I only have one partner."

"S-sure..."

Lemon shakily raised his and shook hands with her. Suddenly, a small electrical current rushed through his palm and shocked Grapefruit a little

"Ouch!" Grapefruit drew back her hand. "You've got static or something?"

Oh god, she found out! Lemon panicked. Should I tell her? What if she tells everyone? I don't think I should tell her-

"Uh, yeah, my powers act up when I'm nervous," Lemon explained. Then, realizing he screwed up, he covered his mouth. "I didn't say anything."

"No way!" Grapefruit exclaimed. She bent lower and continued in a hushed voice. "You have powers?"

"Yeah, ever since I was a kid," Lemon answered. "It's more controlled now, though."

"That's epic!" Grapefruit awed. "I wish I had powers!"

"Hey, uh, on an unrelated note, I think I've seen you before?" Lemon said. "I don't know where, though."

"Probably in the racetracks of the rollerblading championships?" Grapefruit stuck her hands on her hips proudly.
