I just wanna be normal.

Here we go again

Gumball's POV

I let out a sigh of relief when I finally find my locker and struggle to put the code right. I had just moved to the area since it wasn't working out at my old school. So now I have to finish my last year of high school with complete strangers.

This school is an absolute maze, I have no idea how I'm gonna find my classrooms without being late.

I put in my bag only taking the essentials and locking back up my stuff. Just then I hear a boy burst out laughing a few lockers down from me, when I look up I see a strangely pale almost grayish boy with messy black hair in a red and white letterman jacket. Just looking at him I can tell he's gonna be just like the guys at my old school.

"Dude come on you can't just say that that's nasty!" He said chuckling lightly before punching his friends shoulder, he soon spots me staring.

"Oh a new face?" He turns to me and walks over holding out a hand.

"I'm Marshall Lee Abadeer, nice to meet you pinky." I reluctantly take his hand, it's strangely cold.

"It's Barnaby not pinky." He chuckles stuffing his hands in his pockets.

"Ooo, feisty I like that." He look away confused.

"Uh..thanks I guess?" He flashes a toothy grin before noticing my schedule in my hand.

"Need help finding your classes? I could show you around." I'm not sure I trust this guy, he may seem nice but it's probably just a persona to try and mess with me.

"No thank you, I will be fine on my own." He nod reassuringly.

"If you say so, if you ever need any help feel free to call out to me." I nod even though I don't want his help, and head off quickly in the other direction.

I look at my schedule to try and find my classroom but just then the bell rings and I start to panic, it takes me nearly 15 minutes to find my classroom making me around 10 minutes late for class which has never happened to me before.

"-and that's why- oh a strangler, very well take your seat." The tall blue haired teacher says making my face turn red in embarrassment, I slink over to an empty seat feeling everyone's eyes as me. Soon enough they were distracted by another figure coming though the door covered in sweat.

"Sorry Simone! I was showing some freshman to their classrooms and it took longer than expected."

"Just take a seat Marshall and don't make it a habit." Calling a teacher by her first name!? What kinda ball does this kid have? The taller black haired figure spots me near the back and rushes over.

"Hey dude! I didn't know you had Simone's class too, we could have walked together." I try my best not to encourage him.

"Uh yeah." He takes the seat next to me and sets down bag leaning way to far back in his seat.
Why does this have to happen to me on my first day of school?

The rest of the class isn't very note worthy other than Marshall's attempts to pick up a conversation only to be shh'ed by The teacher. Marshall seem like the popular type know almost everyone in class and possible even knowing the teacher personally.

The bell rings for the next class and I get up collecting my stuff when suddenly Marshall stops me.

"What's your next class? I'll walk you the-"

"Ok stop, I don't know what game your playing but I won't have any part of it. Now please leave me alone." Marshall looked at me kinda shocked rubbing the back of his neck.

"Ah..haha sorry man, I get it I'll give you space. See yah." He awkwardly walks out of the classroom making me feel kinda bad. Was he honestly trying to be nice to me...?No! No Bubba, you won't fall for this again. Just finish your last years of high school with out distraction and get out of here.

I sigh and head out of the classroom. The rest of the day was even more uneventful that I could imagine but at least I found where I needed to go. Now for the biggest thing, the dorm room. I will have a room mate but the dorms are cheaper than apartments and I don't have anywhere else to stay. I hope I get paired by someone quiet that will might their own business so I can study.

When I get to my dorm room I unlock the door with my key card only to be greeted by a messy disorganized room covered in cans, clothing and half empty bags of chips.

"Oh hey dude, are you my roommate too? Wow." My whole body almost seized up in anger when I see who that voice was.

"Crazy how this all worked out." He chuckles.

"Sorry for the mess I didn't have time to clean for before you showed up." I silently walk over to the clean open bed set my bag by it and without of word face plant directly onto it so I don't explode.
