Y/N's POV

It's Wednesday today, already half way through the week. I went to my locker and got my books for my last class, English. "Boo!" I flinched and turned around to see Betty there, beaming.

"Ah! you scared me Betty." I said laughing.

"Haha sorry Y/N. I just came to remind you that there's a meeting after school in the drama room on the 3rd floor." She said while she popped a piece of gum in her mouth.

"Oh right, yeah thanks for reminding me." I thanked her.

"Well, English is our next class. Why don't we go now because I don't like being late for class." "Sure."

"Okay so good afternoon everyone, I'm Miss Johnson for the people who weren't here yesterday or the day before. Today, since it's the start of the year we will be watching a movie!" The whole class cheered. "Hopefully we watch something like Mean Girls or like Twilight." Betty whispered beside me. "Yeah. That'll be fun." I replied back.

"Alrighty. So we'll watching The Sound Of Music. My favorite movie ever. Julie Andrews is such an inspiration." The whole class groaned. Then this boy called out "Miss, haven't we already watched this like 10 times last year? Since it was your favorite movie?"

"No Flash. We haven't. Well, I-I don't recall." Giving him a look then she continued, "The movie shows a great storyline and relationships within the characters. Which will be perfect for your end of semester essay writings. Now everyone stay silence because the movie is starting soon."

"Ugh. Why do have to watch this stupid, boring movie again? This. Is. The. Worst. Class. Ever." The same guy groaned very loudly. I guess his name is Flash.

"I don't think it's that bad. What do you think Ned?" A voice to the left behind me mumbled but loud enough that I can hear him.

"I mean, it's quite boring since we watched it around 10 times like Flash said but it's pretty interesting, so its endurable" Ned replied. "So Peter, are you coming to the Academic Decathlon Team meeting after school?"

"Yeah I am but I have to leave a bit early because of—"

"Stark Internship?" Ned asked.

"Yeah..." Peter replied.

Why is everyone's name Peter...

                            ...

"Hey Y/N, just follow me." Betty said as she put her hand on my shoulder and lead the way. I followed her up to the 3rd floor then past the art classes and to the drama room. Inside the room, the chairs were arranged in a large circle and there was 2 people inside already inside, Liz and Mr Harrington.

Mr Harrington looked up and smiled at us. "Ah. Miss Betty welcome back and Y/N welcome to the team. Just a reminder, I actually pick who's in the team so not everyone who wants to be in the Academic Decathlon Team gets in. But I saw your last school's report card and you were amazing! Which is why, I welcome you to the team." he congratulated me.

"Oh-uh thank you" I answered back. Liz waved at us and Betty ran off to sit next to her and I followed behind.

Soon, all the 10 seats including Mr Harrington was filled. There were a few I've seen around school but most of them were unfamiliar. "Alright so we're going to go around in a circle and introduce ourselves. Since there is a new student." Mr Harrington ordered. "Liz, you start first since you're the captain this year."

"Hi everyone I'm Liz. I'm sure you guys all know me, it's an honor to be the captain of the Academic Decathlon Team this year."

Betty went next, "Hello, I'm Betty. It's great to be back!"

Next was my turn, everyone's eyes focused from Betty to me. "Uh. Hi. I'm Y/N L/N. I came to Midtown High this year so I'm new to everything but thank you everyone for welcoming me—"

"Hey, you're that new chick in our homeroom." Flash interrupted.

Betty and Liz rolled their eyes. "Please Mr Thompson do not interrupt while people are talking, thank you" Mr Harrington sighed then asked "Would you like to continue, Miss Y/N?"

"No it's fine thank you." I replied

"Alright. Next, Ned" he said while gesturing towards the guy who was sitting next to me. He had a red striped T-shirt and a cap that said 'Star Wars'. He didn't look intimidating like Flash. He looked kind, caring and funny. But I shouldn't judge people on their appearance.

"Hi. I'm Ned, I'm so excited to be part of the team again this year." He said then he tapped the boy next to him and mouthed "go"

The next boy went, he had brown hair that looked so soft and was wearing a plain black shirt with a jacket on top

"Uh, I'm Peter."

Seriously another Peter? Wait I think he's the guy from Delmar's...

He continued, "And I'm happy to be here, thanks." And did a subtle thumbs up. I noticed Flash mouthing the words 'He's a Loser' to me and pointing at Peter. I shook my head.

The next few people went, their names were Cindy, Abe, Charles and Sally. Through out the meeting Mr Harrington talked about what we will be doing this school year and all that. This year, Mr Harrington really wants our team to go to the Academic Decathlon National Competition at Washington but we need to make it through from the regionals in October. I've never been to Washington so hopefully we get in.

"Guys, I was thinking about having lunch time practices on Fridays, in this room how does that sound?" Mr Harrington asked.

Peter suddenly put his hand up. "Yes Peter?"

"Sir, I have to go now. I have my S-Stark Internship. Sorry, please excuse me."

"Yes yes you can go now." He paused. "In fact everyone can go now."

"Cool. Early finish today." Liz said, smiling while getting up and went over to help Mr Harrington pack up the chairs.

Mr Harrington looked at us and said "Okay guys. Quit playing around and help Liz and I to pack up the chairs. Flash, Abe, Ned come on. What. Where's Peter? Did he leave already without packing up his chair?"

"I guess so. Because the Stark Internship is very important to him. He's such a loser right guys? Not even helping us..." Flash replied.

"Leave off Flash. I think you've annoyed Peter enough today. In fact, everyone" Liz said, rolling her eyes.

"What? I wasn't even being annoying." He turned to Abe and asked "I'm not that annoying right? Right?" he repeated.

Abe just looked at Betty, Liz and I and giving us that look that means 'Yes'.

"No, you're not Flash."

"Gee, thanks man." Flash exclaimed while giving him a pat on the back.
