Heidi's POV
I was peacefully sleeping when I was blinded by my lights.
"Oi! What the hell!" Newt and Hero stood leaning against either side of the door.
"Get up princess! You got school!" Hero said as Newt laughed and turned around to return to their rooms.
I groaned a fell back into my pillows.

What do I wear?  Do high schoolers even do hair and makeup? And if they do, how extreme? God organic thermodynamics is easier than this. I looked at the time on my phone, shit. Did I even have time for anything?

I finally got up and decided that execution is going to make me successful here, not planning. Or procrastinating. I went into my bathroom and brushed my teeth and mouth washed and did all my hygiene necessities. During my whole routine I thought of everything I had to do next. Outfit, get the others up, fed, ready, god damn.

"What are you wearing?" Hero asked as he stood right outside my bathroom.
"No idea. What do the girls you go to school with wear?" I asked, looking for some advice.
"Sweatpants, leggings, hoodies, you know?" He said shrugging.
"Here, wait." He said leaving my sight. I continued getting ready when he threw clothes at me.
"There. Wear that."
Long pants? But it's California, it's still hot out.
"It's too hot for long jeans, this isn't New York."
"The AC is blasting in there, you'll need it. You might even want to bring like a crew neck or something." He said.

I wiggled into my jeans and pulled them over my feet as they crumpled at my heels. Finding jeans that fit properly when you're 5'2, impossible. And he gave me loose fitted shirt from Gucci that me, him, and Newt all had. Is he trying to match today or something? I slipped on matching shoes and mentally prepared myself for the day ahead.

"What the hell are you wearing?!" Newt said laughing a bit as he chilled in the kitchen. "Wha-what's wrong with what I'm wearing! Besides, Hero picked it out for me." I said looking down at myself.
"Eh it will do."
"What no now I feel weird."
"Too late. We gotta go." Newt said grabbing his backpack.

"Wha-?" I stammered as he left the kitchen. "Guys let's go!" He shouted.
"Number 6.." he said as Nellie headed out the door. "Number 4 and 5.." as Klaus and Kalel went outside. "3,2, and 1." He said shutting the door behind him. I locked the house up using the extensive electronic security system I designed when we moved in.

"Uh I don't think so." I said to Hero as he attempted to ride shotgun.
"No. I was here first."
"Technically I was. I'm older." He rolled his eyes and looked to Newt for defense. Newt shrugged and laughed knowing I'd win.
"You're lucky I love you, and that I feel bad that your eye is still busted." He said getting out and shutting the door when I got in.

Hero may seem like this tough guy with his tattoos and I don't give a fuck attitude, but he's kind of a softy. Especially when it comes to his sisters. Like when Nellie had night terrors, he would sleep on the floor next to her bed, he used to tell her that monsters and nightmares were scared of big brothers. Or when Kalel broke her arm doing gymnastics , he had drew her dragons on her cast because it was too plain. And once Klaus, he had tripped and broke his glasses, he thought we were going to be so mad at him for his glasses braking, that Hero told him he'd fix them for him and we drove around New York to find him the same pair, and even after 3 hours of searching and calling, he wouldn't let us stop driving until we got those damn glasses.
So he can fool everyone else, with the black sunglasses and the unimpressed looks while he smokes his cigarettes, but he's still my baby brother.

We drove and dropped off Klaus and Kalel at their school for highly advanced students, and dropped Nellie off at her school for highly advanced students just down the road. Then it was our turn. Newt pulled in a parking spot and parked the car.
"You sure I'm even allowed to be here?" I asked kind of really wanting to go back into bed.
"Yeah. They don't care." Newt said opening up his door and climbing out.

We walked across the parking lot across a quad where other students sat in the grass and crammed in last minute assignments. We walked through the front doors and Newt directed me into an office as him and Hero greeted their friends and acquaintances.
"Hey I'm showing a potential student around today."
"Shadowing?" The old woman with smudged lipstick and short curly hair asked Newt with suspicion, looking at him over her glasses that hung at the tip of her nose.
"Yup." He said shaking his head.
"What's your name sweetie." She said looking at me.
"Uh Heidi." I said.
"You sure about that?" She joked.
"Yes." I said pressing my palms together and biting on my cheek.

She scribbled things down but I couldn't see over the desk and over Newts shoulders. He stood there with his elbows rested ontop of the desk leaning over, while Hero stood behind with his arms crossed, unimpressed.
"Last name dear?"
"Stark." I said and she looked up at me. "You're Tony's daughter?" She asked.
"Mhm." I said. Her features softened, and she looked at me as if she's known me forever. Like I was important to her.

She ripped the sticker off of the sheet and handed it to me. I put it on my shirt and she just kept looking at me.
"You look just like your mother." She said to me.
I was in shock. I looked at Newt and he looked just as surprised. I never mentioned her much to him, she was kind of mystery to him and everyone else, me too a little bit.
"But you have your fathers brain I hear." She said smiling. "Tell him Mrs. Randell said hi, and he still owes me a pen!" She said.
"Will do, Mrs. Randell. Thanks." I said backing out of the office.

"Dad went here?" I asked my brothers and they nodded their heads.
"They have a whole shrine of him." Hero said.
"Ayyyyyo!" I heard from behind.
"The three amigos!" Josh said.
Bellamy dressed sporty with his basketball bag around his shoulder, and Josh dressed with black skinny jeans and a Ramones shirt, and Stilies had on khakis and a flannel, and Harry had on jeans as well with a blue buttoned shirt that was unbuttoned enough to see the birds tattooed under his collar bones.

"Welcome to high school princess!" Bellamy said shaking my shoulders.
"It smells like bleach in here." I said covering my nose and mouth with my hand.
"Someone probably threw up." Josh said shrugging his shoulders. 
I was mortified.
"Je veux aller a la maison."
"Don't be silly." Hero said sarcastically. "We're here until 2!"
I think I might cry.
"Come on. We got English first!" Newt said putting his around around my shoulders and ushering me through the hallways and up two flights of stairs.

I was trying to hide how out of breath I was after climbing the stairs to the second floor, but everyone was in such a rush! They were pushing and shoving and pushing and shoving each other into other people. Animals!
"Watch it!" Some kid said after shoving past me and hitting me in my shoulder. As soon as he passed me however Harry had grabbed him in mid air and held him by the shirt and pushed him into the locker.
"Say you're sorry." He said and the kid looked at me with pure regret in his eyes.
"S-sorry!" He squealed.
"Touch my sister again I'll break your hands." Hero said as Harry let him down and he squirmed.
Ooookkayyyy. Not gonna lie I kind of liked Harry's temper a bit, his protectiveness.

"Here." Newt said ushering me into a classroom. There was about 10 kids sat around randomly already and only Harry, Newt, and Stilies came in.
"I'll be down the hall, with Bellamy." Hero said.
"Amusez-vous en classe." He said with a smirk. Fun? In this class? S'il vous plaît. I thought to myself.
"Sit here." Newt said, Stilies sat in front of me, Newt behind me, and Harry to my right, with no one to my left.

The teacher walked in as well as other students.
"Hello." He immediately making eye contact with me. I didn't say anything and waited for Newt to speak up.
"Uh she's shadowing me today, Mr. Kane." Newt finally said.
He still looked at me as if I was familiar to him. He was quite tall, and had a scruffy beard with dark brown hair and brown eyes.

"Forgive me, you um just remind me of someone I used to know."
