Hi so this is Chapter 1 

Tommy POV

Nothing says welcome back to school like the sound of the cheerleading coach screaming through the megaphone. Tommy watched as the coach screamed at the team. They had just finished, when coach ordered them to crowd around her.

"Pathetic, absolutely Pathetic!" roared Coach Lynch, "You are national champions, 4 years in a row, act like it!" Lynch screamed. she then turned to the head cheerleader. Her brown hair was tied into a high pony. She wore the official cheer uniform; a short silver and white cheer dress with white sneakers." Violetta, you call this a team?" Lynch screamed. Tommy felt sorry for Violetta.

"Coach, it is first day back after 6 weeks off. It's not even 9AM. We're all tired, and making us do this at 8AM... It's not fair. Half of the team isn't even here!" Another girl said. Tommy looked at his sister with awe.

Coach just stared at the young girl. She watched as Violetta stepped in front and crossed her arms. "Team, go relax, get a coffee or something. Meet here at lunch time about 12:45 and we will run through it two times. Then, we will meet again after and run it till 4:45." Violetta shouted. The girls all nodded and started walking off towards the school.

"How can you stand up to her and not be scared?" Tommy exclaimed, as the other two walked over to him.

Arabella shrugged. "I was shitting myself." she admitted. Tommy laughed at his sister. She was one of the nicest people you could meet, but she could sometimes be sarcastic.

"Well good on you, A." Violetta says, "That old bitch is just moody because she hasn't got any action over the holidays." Violetta says, linking arms with Arabella, who looked shocked.

"Violetta, that is rude and out of line." she says, "Besides, you haven't got any action either and your doing just fine." She says with a smirk, causing Tommy to laugh. Violetta just looked at her.

She lets out a loud laugh. "You're lucky we're family, otherwise, I would have hurt you." she says.

The trio made their way into the school. "Hey Arabella." a few girls said as they walked by. Arabella smiled and waved.

They made their way to Tommy's locker. They heard a familiar voice. "Hello." the trio turned to see Maria walking towards them smiling.

Arabella went to her locker when she felt a tap on her shoulder. Turning around, she is faced with Mason. He is a handsome young man. He was friends with Tommy. He and Arabella were good friends, but they don't hang out with each other anymore.

"Hi Mason, did you have a nice summer?" Arabella asks, grabbing her book.

"I did. I went to see my uncle Lee." he says.

"That's great! How is he?" she asked.

"He's doing great and how was your summer?" Mason asks.

"Good, it's so nice not to be screamed at." Arabella says. Mason lets out a laugh.

"Mason, coming or not?" Someone yelled. Mason turned and smiled.

"I'll see you in English yes?" Mason asks.

"You will, bye." Arabella waved goodbye and watched as Mason walked away. She closed her locker and started to walk towards English. When she arrived, she sat down and noticed Tommy staring at Shannon.

Tommy couldn't help but stare at Shannon, who was currently laughing with Arabella. Shannon looked and saw tommy smiling at her. "Something caught your eye?" she says, smirking. Tommy felt his cheeks burn. He then looked down at his book.

"Right class, Harry Potter, Percy Jackson, what do they have in common?" Their English teacher asks.

"They're both cute?" Violetta says.

"Their movies were rubbish compared to the books?" Arabella teases.

"Their both victims!" Shannon says, "They both had no control on what was going on in their lives." Shannon says. The girls turned and smiled at her.

"The nerd is back." Violetta says, causing Shannon to smile.

"Correct, Shannon. Now, both Percy and Harry were main characters, and each had their own problems. Now, your project for the term is to pick a character from any TV, book or movie, and evaluate them. What makes them so special? You have an entire term, so think wisely. You can use this to make notes and discuss." the teacher says.

"What's everyone doing?" Violetta asks.

"I have no idea?" Arabella says.

"Same." Tommy says.

"How about we have a movie night at mine?" Shannon says, "We can watch a range of different shows and movies." She says.

"Sure when?" Tommy asks.

"How about this Saturday, 6:00? I'll order pizza?" Shannon says.

"It's a plan. Oh, let's invite Chad and Wes as well." Violetta says.

"Speaking of which, where is thing 1 and thing 2?" Maria says.

Arabella looked around, only to see that they were two seats missing on their table. Suddenly, there is a loud bang, followed by footsteps. The entire class looked up to see two boys running in, sweaty and out of breath.

The first could be describe as a surfer boy; tanned skin, blonde hair and blue eyes. While, the other was a Latino elf with a mop of curly brown hair.

"Sorry, sir. We forgot it was Monday!" Chad says.

"Yeah, we thought it was Sunday." Wes says. The entire class busted out laughing.

The teacher just shook his head. "Just take your seat, I'm sure your friends can explain." he says.

The two boys walked over and sat down in their seats. "So, what's going on?" Wes sits next to Maria, kissing her cheek, causing Maria to blush.

"Aw, love birds." Violetta says, smiling at the two.

"Shut up." Maria mumbled.

"Aw, is my baby blushing?" Wes says, causing Maria to turn red again. "Aw, look boys and girls, Maria is blushing!" Wes exclaims, causing several students to look at them.

"What? You never seen a couple before?" Maria snaps, causing every to turn around. "Thought so." she mumbled.

Wes smirked and wrapped an arm around Maria. Those two have been together since they started high school and honestly, they were the perfect couple. Sure, they had fights, a lot of fights, but they still manage to work it out.

Suddenly, they heard Chad pretending to throw up. "Gross, too much cuteness, going to be sick!" Chad says, laughing. Wes turned around and playfully smacked his shoulder.

"Enough guys." Shannon says, speaking up. "Now, why don't we talk about the project?" She pipes up. "Before Mr Ward comes and asks us." she says.

"Relax," Violetta says, "we'll have a movie night and figure something out." she says. It was nearing the end of lesson.

"Right pack your things." Mr Ward calls out.

Arabella smiles at Mason.

"Bella's got a crush!" sang Violetta, causing Arabella to blush and walk out of the classroom. She could hear Violetta laughing. Rolling her eyes, Arabella waved goodbye to the group and walked towards her art class.
