Helloo people. You have stumbled upon another typical, set-in-school, cliche wattpad story. And, well if that's your type of thing then you've come to the right place! But even if that type of thing isn't really your cup of tea, give it a shot, who knows? You might like my story! :DD Meet April, who unfortunately was named after the month she was born in. And she, is a loser. And then there are her equally loser-y friends... Summer, who's personality is quite the exact opposite of her name, Luna, the strong-willed (and just basically strong in every way, mentally and physically) and mean (but actually has a soft side) one, and then there's the oddball, Gale, short for Abigail, but of course no one really calls her that. Separately, they're possibly the most annoying people you'd ever encounter in your life. But when they're all together... That's when things get a little out of hand.
