"Stop thinking so hard about everything,
stop over analyzing.
 Just go.
 Just do.
 If it feels right, just go with the flow."

_______________________________________

As we entered the cafeteria, I saw all kinds of different people.

Now I don't mean to stereotype and I respect their individual choices but I'm just thinking and I believe I can think whatever I want right? Right.

Grace led me to a group of 3 girls who were probably waiting for her. 

They all greeted Grace and then their attention drifted towards me.

"And who might this be?" asked one of them

"Oh, I totally forgot to introduce her." Grace said

"I'd like to do that myself, thank you." I butted in because if I was going to make friends, I'd like to make sure that I'm being myself

"I'm Kent, Kelly Kent." I said with a wink

They all chuckled indicating that they got my Bond, James Bond joke.

"Well I'm Johanna McKaylee." said the one in blue tank top

"Myself Natalia Connor." said the one in Lavender dress 

"I'm Layla McKenzie." said the one in classic black leather jacket

"You already know me." Grace joked

"Lovely meeting you all." I genuinely said

It was weird that I felt a sudden connection towards those girls. I mean I've never felt one like this before. All of a sudden there was this sprang of positive vibes in me that said those people were worth a shot of friendship.
And so I decided to give them one.

And then we all grabbed our food and sit down.
I start to take in each of them.

Johanna was my height and had blonde mid-waist length hair with bold black eyes standing out on her face.

Natalia was almost my height, slightly taller if you look closely, she had the top part of her waist length hair blonde and the bottom part burgundy. She had beautiful light brown eyes.

Layla was slightly shorter than me but stood out just as an individual. She had light brown waist length hair with sparkling forest green eyes.

To say those girls were attractive would be an understatement. They were all drop dead gorgeous.

"So tell me about you guys." I say

"Natalia and I have known each other for a couple of years now since we were together in our previous school and have been in this school for about 2 years now." said Layla

"Well Nat and I are unfortunately family friends. I joined the school this year, I am new too but now I'm stuck with this dimwit." Johanna said playfully pointing at Natalia

"I met Jo on my first day and then she introduced me to Ly and Nat." Grace fills in.

"Okay, so now everyone here has a name that we gave each other and NOBODY apart from us gets to call us by that name." Layla briefed  

"Natalia is Nat, Layla is Ly, Grace is GG and I am Jo." informed Johanna

"Now that you're in our group too, you need to be named as well." said Natalia or Nat

So now they want me in their group?

"Kel." declared GG

Everybody agreed and cheered.

"You fine with it right?" asked Jo

"Wouldn't want it any other way." I said with a toothed grin

Gosh! These girls are very very different from all the people I've ever met. They were never so welcoming on the first go but those girls were the total opposite.

"Now let's notify you about the others at school." started Ly

"Those are the wannabes who wear clothes that are close to wearing nothing at all." said Nat with disgust pointing at a group of girls "and that there is the queen B of the campus, Ashley Anderson and her minions; Marnie and Hailey." she pointed at the girls

"Those are the jocks more like the clowns of the campus and those are the nerds." said Jo pointing towards the respective groups

"Who are they?" I asked pointing at a group of guys

"They are the school bad boys. You would want to stay as far from them as possible." GG butted in

"But a certain someone in that group is Nat's favorite." Jo whined making a fake pout

Natalia blushed indicating that she has a crush on one of the guys.

"Then why don't you just go and talk to the person?" I suggested

"I don't want to, the guys are all players. I'd rather admire the guy from a distance than get my heart broken." sighed Nat

I just hummed in response and looked over to the guys. They were a group of 3.

"That is Aiden Reese, the jokester of their gang and our poor Nat's day and night dream." Ly said smirking towards Nat
"and that is Ryder Brown the prankster, and that's Zeke Blakely the other prankster." completes Ly 

I looked over to the guys only to notice that they were drop dead gorgeous. Like God very attentively sculpted them. 

"They are actually 5 in total, there are 2 more to come, the leader and his best friend." GG informed

"Their leader is not going to be there for a couple days and his best friend is out of town for a couple months." Nat explains

"You want any information about the guys, Nat has it all because she stalks Aiden with complete passion." Jo teased to which Nat blushed

And then to lighten up the mood I said, "You know, 'It is not funny' can also be said as 'hahan't'" emphasizing with air quotes

All they did was look at me weirdly probably wondering why I was so lame but then chuckled, even though I think they laughed at my stupidity and not the mere attempt of joke. Yeah, it's mostly the first option.

But then the conversation flowed by easily after that and I sighed with satisfaction.

"Well I have class so I gotta go. See ya." I say getting up

They all have this class free but I have library which I don't share with any of them. So I walk out the cafeteria and towards the library.

I know right! They have a separate hour for reading books!

Yeah I LOVE novels because they make me escape the world entirely.
The lecture is not compulsory to attend but who would want to bunk this class right?

'Many' said my conscience but I just ignored it.

The rest of the day flew by with no unfortunate encounters. The girls and I exchanged contact numbers and retired to your respective homes.
