"And that's where we end our session" Aiden our dungeon master says abruptly pulling us out of the game. I look at the time and it's nine pm, so we didn't go overtime, I stood up and start to collect my stuff as Jacob begins to whine at Aiden "really can't we do an hour more we were just getting to start the quest" Aiden shakes his head "unfortunately no, the real quest is to actually get other people to play and I don't want to play a lot of NPC, you just have to wait till next session and hope that more people show up" Jacob slowly gets his stuff together and grumbles under his breath and Aiden spoke again "for the first time playing you did pretty well although it's a shame those goblins landed three crits on your character Jacob" Jacob puts his bag over his shoulders "you just really wanted to kill me, luckily I made my death saving throws."

I fake cough and they look at me "I'm going to head out now, see you around the school I guess" and I head up from the basement and headed towards the door but before I leave I saw Aiden mother on the couch watching tv I decided not to interrupt her and I head out of the house without saying goodbye and close the door behind me.

I waited until a black car came up to the house and I head inside the car in the passenger side and look up to see my older sister she looks back and sighs "I can't believe you still hang out with them, sometimes I don't even know if you're my sister or not" I put on my seatbelt and smirk "yet you still defend me, and encouraging my weird behaviour" she laughs "yeah, even if you are weird your still family and I'm the only one who can insult you" I roll my eyes at the point that she thinks she is allowed insult me.

The next day I woke up early, it was Monday meaning school, ugh, but I get up this early to use the bathroom first as my sister always takes to long. After freshening myself off I head down to the kitchen bumping into my sister on the way, she was half asleep and just looks down at me then head to the bathroom. I make myself some cereal and wait for my sister to be done.

After a long time, she finally comes down the stairs beautiful as always, for a quick description, my sister has a dirty blonde long wavy hair and Hazel eyes her features are sharp and she usually wears casual outfits such as jeans and a top. As for me, I dress the same as my sister however usually the colours that I wear don't stand out however I have straight black hair which always put into a bun and I have really dark brown eyes and a smooth face and my height is a whopping 5,4 whilst my sister is 5,8 yep I'm really small compared to the other children at school. You might be wondering why we don't look anything alike well I'm adopted my father died in the army and my mother died giving birth to me. My adoptive parents called the Thompson a are really nice beside my sister who's a pain in the butt.

she heads outside and I follow her closing the door behind us. We head inside her car and we took our usual journey to school and then we go our separate ways, my sister heads to her group whilst I head towards Aiden who's sitting on a bench outside school since Jacob is always late and of course, haven't arrived yet and Annabelle or Belle for short is still 'sick' she literally not coming into school although she's so smart that the school doesn't care.

Aiden wasn't muscular but wasn't fat either he was healthy but a little on the skinny side he wore glasses over his blue eyes and he had brown hair was really curly and he seems to never tame it. He was 5,9 so he was taller than me.

As I reach Aiden I see him giving my sister googly eyes so I smack him at the back of the head breaking him out of his trance, he looks at me angrily to which I respond with "it's not going to happen" Aiden scowled "I know she's popular, smart and beautiful and I'm literally nothing". I shake my head " don't ever say that again Aiden, just because she says it all the time doesn't make it true and I'll tell you this over and over again if I have to, you're the coolest person I know, it's just my sister is a massive bit-"

"Hey, guys!" Jacob comes running from the car park waving, he reaches us in record time since he been running since forever and he one of the fastest runners on the track team.

As expected Jacob was muscular but has a slim body he has light blonde hair and bright blue eyes and a smile that can light up the room also he was tall standing at 6,1 so he is way taller than me.

"Sooooo, what you are guys talking about?" I swear this kid never runs out of energy "nothing in particular, hmm it's strange to see you this early usually you arrive when the bell goes." I state and Aiden joins in "yeah, don't you say something along the lines-"

"I can run fast and live close to the school so I can afford to wake up late, yes I know what I said but my dad complained that I'm always rushing out the house in the morning so he waked me up" Jacob replied. I laugh, "so how does it feel getting out of bed this early?" Jacob just responds with a groan and all three of us laugh until the amazing Rebecca came over with her friends we all rolled our eyes "Hey weirdos, so when are you going to do your cult ritual?" Her three groupies laugh at her 'insult'.

I simply smile just because I'm small doesn't mean I'm quiet and replied "I don't know Becs, why so interested, you want to join in don't ya. Well fortunately for us we were just looking for sacrifice, unfortunately, we need a virgin one." I fake sigh and the boys try not to laugh. Becs face twist in anger "your lucky you have your sister to protect you, adopted freak" then she walks off with her groupies close behind and I shout "AW, LOVE YOU TO BECS!!!" Making people turns around to me but Becs still continues to walk off with her three groupies.

Aiden shakes his head "you really have no shame" I think for a moment "nope, I don't, I think I lost the ability to care what other people think of me" Jacob hugs me " and that's why you are the best." I chuckle a bit but all good things come to an end as the bell rings, I hate that annoying sound. I say goodbye to the boys as I head to math and they head to English, ugh this is going to be a long week.
