Rose P.O.V

As Brady approached us, I saw a familiar head popping from behind him. It was Stella . She came running.
" Hey Rose . I was finding you only . " said stella . " Oh ..and why ?" I asked .
She replied " yeah ! I wanted to buy today's lunch for you  ." Her excited face fell as she saw the sandwich before me . " And why would you get her a lunch ?" Asked Giselle curiously.

       "  Because she helped me in the morning." Stella said mimicking Giselle's tone. " oh ! So do you always give something in return of help from a friend? Is that what friendship is for you ?just a give and take relationship ?" I said exaggerating a little bit.

       "Hey  calm down ! You were not her friend when you helped her so we suggested that." Said one of the twins appearing at sight with chairs to sit on.

         "Okay ! So you know everyone here but still I want to officially introduce you to our small group .  This is Stella Adkins ." Said Giselle
" Hey, have we met before ? " said Stella sarcastically.

       " These are adkins twins Giselle pointed towards Ashton and Aspen.
" Nice to meet you " both of them said together . I chuckled in response. " And this is Brady Ripperton ."
I smiled awkwardly as his smile lasted for less than a fraction of second.

     "You know Rose is really intelligent. She answered many of the Mr. Johnson's question which are not always easy." Said Giselle suddenly , may be she noticed my awkward smile.
    
" She is not just intelligent she is really generous and helpful as well , she helped me this morning when I slipped in the muddy area of the ground." added Stella.

" and beautiful too." whispered Aspen. I blushed a little as Giselle nudged her elbow on his side.

" By the way ,How do you people recognise who's Ashton and who's Aspen." I asked to change the topic and also because I was curious .

"we are friends since we were babies so yeah we are used to them and know who is who ..you'll probably get used to it in some years." Said Giselle with a sarcastic tone .

  "  Oh come on! Even I recognise them because of their accessories. Ashton wears an earring while Aspen doesn't.  I can't tell the difference if they both dont wear it ."  Admitted Stella .

   " And you call yourself our sister !what a shame ." Said Ashton as we all laughed.

     I stole a glance at Brady , I thought he hadn't got the ability to laugh but nope he was laughing hard . Maybe he is not used to talk and smile at new people.

    " Hey we forgot Katherine ! She is also in our group , but you'll have to wait to meet her because she is on a trip with her family right now ." Said Stella. I smiled as I thought how this new girl would be .
 
     Suddenly a voice came " Don't tell me you forgot to mention Ryan too !" Said Brady with a deep husky voice . This was the first time I heard him deeper than I had thought but still soft to my ears.  

      " He is again on his detention today ." declared Ashton. " May be you'll get to meet him when you are on your detention too ." Said Giselle as she chuckled ." Does that mean never ? Cause she won't get detention so easily " said stella making everybody laugh as we moved on to our classes.

    My house was near the school so I chose to walk back home after the school was over. As I reached I told my mom everything that happened at the school . She was happy listening to me and realizing that I was happy here.

    We had bought a beautiful row house with a cute little garden with Roses,  pansies,  lilies.  My mom is a surgeon so yeah we were able to afford this house even without dad .

    He died in a car accident some days back and this was the reason we had shifted here. I  accepted this fact now but still I can feel the missing place in my heart. I slept quickly after dinner as my mind went from one topic to another , switching off my brain with due to tiredness.

      Next day I shared my first lecture with Giselle again. I also made a new friend.  " there he is ! Hey Riddle come here ."shouted Giselle across the class.

     The boy with sharp facial features came towards us . "This is Riddle , the person we were talking about yesterday ! And yes we are lucky to find him here since it's just the start of the day ." Said Giselle . " But umm.. I didn't hear that name yesterday!  " I declared.
Oh sorry this is Ryan Riddle ! Riddle is his surname."Giselle smiled.

    " Hi ! I am Rose." I introduced myself . " yeah and today is your second day at the school and you are probably Mr. Johnson's favourite. and you helped our Stella ." Spoke Ryan.

   " and you are Brady's best friend?" I said as I supposed.
" and how come you know that ? Asked Ryan.
"Cause ... I don't know I just guessed it ." I said as I thought not to tell him that I observed that Brady only responded on his name and it was most probable that he was his best friend .

  " Okay ! You must have done something  cause it's hard to talk to Brady in first meeting . "He said and left.
    
     It was strange he didn't even stop to listen to my reply.

So how was this chapter ?I know the chapters are short but I don't get time to write ..so I can't schedule my writing properly ....

Also this is unedited so may be there are some mistakes ...so feel free to point out .

Till then stay safe and stay happy.
