You may now rp! It is the first day of the school year.



Travis stood in the crowd of people waiting to enter the school next to Ally. As per usual the principal was giving her welcoming speech to everyone for the school year. Welcoming the new students, talking about the events of this year, news, things like that. He had heard it all before, this being the third year he was there. It wasn't really common for there to be freshman at Hollywood Academy but that wasn't to say it didn't happen. He leaned towards his cousin and whispered in her ear. "You're going to be fine, you're crazy talented. Try to stick with me and people will love you." Travis was aware of his popularity, he just didn't agree with it. He didn't really see what made him all that special, which by itself made him kind of special. Ally looked from face to face nervously, hoping people would be nice to her even though she was new.

Danni was late. Again. She panted, sprinting down the hallways towards the welcoming committee. First, she had been late to the introductory day where she found out her courses and now she was late to the actual first day She groaned as she skidded to a halt in front of the door, taking a deep breath and fanning her bright red face in hopes of cooling it down. She let the breath out and opened the door quietly, slipping in smoothly and thinking she could lean against the back wall and listen to the rest of the principal's speech undetected when she stumbled on her heels and fell forward, her face smacking into a plastic and dragging it down with her as she plummeted to the ground.

Her face turned dark red with embarrassment as she hoped and prayed she hadn't brought too much attention to herself, and she glued herself to the back wall. First days were all about first impressions, especially when it was your first time in the school, and so far she had convinced the back row she was a klutz. Great. She held her face in her hands in embarrassment, sinking down and sitting against the wall so she couldn't see the principal anymore but instead only hear his booming voice. As she looked at her hands she noticed a bit of blood and groaned quietly. She had managed to give herself a bloody nose not even fifteen minutes into the school day. She quickly wiped the blood away, careful to keep it off her outfit. This was going to be a long year.

As Mariah waited for the principal to finish her introductory speech she couldn't wait to introduce herself to the other kids. T. She stood in the middle and after about 10 more minutes she finally dismissed everyone.


Mariah couldn't help but notice the large cliques, the diversity, the cute guys and girls once again crowding the halls. Mariah fitted into all the cliques because she was so friendly and chill.


She looked around she didn't know what to do first so she just looked at her schedule trying to find all her classes so she wouldn't have to risk being late to her classes this year.
 
When the principal had finally finished her speech she let everyone in the school. Travis got pulled away from Ally by the crowd. With the flow of people it was impossible to get back to her. With a shrug he turned to some friends. He figured she'd be fine. He started talking about his plans for making a movie this year.


Ally watched as Travis, her only lifeline in this place, was pulled away. With a sigh she looked around, holding her notebooks close to her chest. As she looked around she noticed a girl sitting on the ground. She tentatively walked over to her. "U-uhm....h-hey, are you okay?" she asked quietly. @McMajestic
 
Mariah seeing one of her classes sees two pretty girls and she walked towards them with a friendly smile..then a concerned look seeing one of the girls with a bloody nose.


"Oh my goodness! Are you okay hunny? What happened?" She looked at her saddened hoping one of the students wasn't picking on her.


She reached down in her purse grabbing a pack of tissue handing it to the girl
 

Danni smiled gently although it was masked by her hands hiding most of her face. "Yeah, I'm fine. Just fell a little. I'll be okay," she said, getting to her feet and was about to introduce herself when she heard another girl's voice and turned, smiling widely as she wiped some excess blood away. "Oh I just fell. Those damn chairs always jump out at you." She chuckled and grabbed a tissue, using it to hold her nose closed so it would stop the bleeding. This wasn't her first bloody nose nor would it be the last.

"I'm Danni! Drummer slash video editor. Sophomore going on Senior. Nice to meet you two," she chirped conversationally, happy that she had some people to talk to. The real trick to getting friends is injuring yourself in front of people, she thought, snorting at her own joke and then wincing from pain. She took a short breath to compose herself and waited for the other two to introduce themselves.​

@MariahChanell
 
She smiled at Danni, embracing how strong she is.


"Hey Danni, I'm Mariah. Senior. Musical prodigy" She giggles


"I sing, dance and act. I'm what they call a triple threat, or whatever." Mariah raises an eyebrow


"Why you sitting here all alone? You're a pretty girl I'm sure it doesn't take much for you to make friends"
 
Ally smiled softly at the Danni's joke but lowered her gaze when another girl approached. She took a timid step back but didn't want to come off as rude so she introduced herself. "I'm Allison. But please just call me Ally." she said quietly, mustering up a friendly smile. @McMajestic @MariahChanell
 
Mariah noticed how uncomfortable Ally seemed


"Well it's very nice to meet you Ally, I hope we could all grow to be friends, but if you'll excuse me I'm going to go look for the choir room i feel the inspiration to write some music. See ya!"


She skipped away
 
"Mariah and Ally, got it," she grinned, noticing how Ally backed off. She moved over and wrapped her arm around Ally's shoulders. She squeezed Ally's shoulder a bit, more for reassurance than as an act of friendliness. She then lowered her arm back to her side and waved as Mariah walked off. "And then there were two. So tell me, Ally Cat, where's your dorm? Maybe we'll be together," Danni said cheerfully, smiling at the girl.


@PenguinFox
 
Ally gave a small wave as Mariah left. She felt a little uncomfortable at the fact that Danni wrapped her arm around her shoulder but at the same time it was comforting, like she could make it here. She smiled at the nickname she was given. It was cute. Pushing some stray hair behind her ear she looked at her and responded. "I actually am not living on campus...My parents wanted me to stay with them." she paused for a moment, taking a breath to steady herself. "You said earlier you were a sophomore going into senior, are you skipping a grade?" she asked looking up through her bangs curiously. @McMajestic
 
Danni laughed, shaking her head. "No silly, you know the saying '13 going on 30 or whatever. It's like that," Danni shrugged, her fingers tapping a beat against her thigh. "So what do you do, Ally Cat?" she asked, raising an eyebrow at the girl. "Piano? Singing? Oh, guitar! If you're music we can totally start a band," Danni spoke excitedly, still completely unsure if she was even in that category. She did want to start a band though so perhaps she could find others around who were into music. It shouldn't be that hard considering her classes.


@PenguinFox
 
Mariah walked into the choir room forgetting how big it was...


She grabbed some smart music and started fooling around on the piano...it's been awhile since she played. She felt herself becoming lost in these music. She's glad she gets to live on campus. She loved being close to get music.


"Hmmm" she thought to Herself "maybe I should've stayed with the girls
 
"Late is better than never, right?" She reassured herself.


Amelia took a breath before walking into the school building. Looking around at the tons of students, she felt a little small but still walked confidently. With her guitar strapped onto her back, she felt as if she could do anything. She could hear the distant sound of a piano and instinctively started to follow that.


Entering what looked to be the chorus room, she stared at the girl playing the piano.


"Wow, she's good!" She says, without realizing it actually came out of her mouth.
 
A red tint of embarrassment came to Ally's face when Danni asked what her talent was. She didn't personally see herself as all that talented. "I sing mostly. I do some writing too, but mostly I sing." she said nervously twirling some hair in her fingers. "I'm not really that good though." deciding to change the subject away from her to delay the inevitable of being asked to sing she asked Danni a question. "Is this your first year here?" @McMajestic


Travis, finally able to break away from his friends ambled around the hallway. He knew Mr. Lowell didn't mind if he was late so he just sort of wandered. Stopping in front of the choir room he listened to someone playing and someone in front of him mentioning their skill. "Of course they're good, they go to this school right?" he said to the girl with a guitar on her back. @MariahChanell @Amelia White
 
Sef and Rufus walked in front of the school, they had just arrived from their appartment here in the City. They didn't need to hwar thebspeech of the principal and already knew their scedule.


Some girls looked at Sef, his smooth and musculine body was, beautiful. All his hard training gave him this, a perfect body, school and a nice job. He smiled at them, it's public knowlegde that the twins are gay, but some doesn't know yet. Sef gave Rufus a short kiss on the cheeck and walked towards his friends.


Rufus waved a Sef as he departed, he started walking to the choir room, the place where he had left his Marimba last year. He saw Mariah and smiled at her "Hey"


He walked over the marimba and choose the right mallets, four of them and started to play a choral.


@MariahChanell
 
Danni nodded. "Yes it is, and don't think I'm not going to hear you sing soon. I need a lead singer in my band. You're auditioning once I find my dorm," she said in a tone that told Ally no wasn't an option. She grinned though, taking her drum sticks out of her bag and twirling them in her fingers. "I'm trying to seem cooler than I really am though, so maybe some people will think I know what I'm doing. Just strut down the hall and they'll think you're one of the popular kids or something," she giggled, beginning to start for the exit. "Wanna walk with me to the dorm? I have no idea where it's at but we'll get their eventually."


@PenguinFox
 
Amelia spins on her heels.


"Oh yeah, right," She stutters, scratching the back of her head, " I almost forgot this was a talent school and i'm not special at all." Soon realizing what she said, she corrects herself.


" I didn't mean that, I meant that there were so many other extremely talented people here and that I was also one of those and.. Oh nevermind" She stops herself from rambling on to a boy she doesn't know. She walks up to him.


"I'm Amelia, nice to meet you." She says with a smile on her face.
 
"Oh...great." Ally said nervously but smiled anyway. "Oh I don't know, you seem pretty cool to me. I don't know what I'm doing at all." she said with a small chuckle, beginning to get more confident with Danni. "Although my cousin was supposed to help." she said rolling her eyes. Ally giggled along with the red haired girl. "Sure." she said with a smile, glad she was connecting with someone. @McMajestic


Travis smiled at the girl as she seemed to get wound up over herself. "Seems no one really believes in themselves." he said before smirking and holding out his hand. "Travis, the pleasure's mine." his eyes darted to her guitar briefly. "You play I assume?" @Amelia White
 
Amelia shakes his hand. "Oh this old thing? Nah.. I mean yes, yes I do. I play my guitar. It would make zero sense if I didn't." She says, still shaking his hand. " I promise, the next time we talk, it won't be this.." She realizes that she is still shaking his hand and she puts it down by his side. "Awkward." She flashes an embarrassed smile. "I should go, I need to go.." She starts to walk past him and then stops, turns back, and takes a couple of steps toward him.


"I don't know where to go, do you know where I need to go?" She asks, trying to look as calm, collected, and normal, as possible.
 
"Maybe you could introduce me to your cousin and I'll tell them what a bad tour guide they are," Danni chuckled, walking with Ally in the general direction others with suitcases seemed to be going. She followed the herd all the way to her dorm before pushing her door open and looking around. It was still plain and empty meaning she was the first settler. "I'm totally going for the bed by the window," she said, collapsing on it and throwing her bag on it. She pulled her drumsticks out, tapping a beat out on the wall as she looked around. "Home sweet home for ten months." She tossed her drumsticks on the bed and began opening her bag, dumping all its contents on her bed.


@PenguinFox
 
Ally laughed. "He's the type that would take that as a compliment. He loves people. I mean I do too I suppose, but I'm...kinda shy as you probably noticed." she cleared her throat awkwardly and remained silent until they reached Danni's dorm. She looked around in awe. "This is pretty nice. I'm kinda jealous. Beginning to think I should talk my parents into letting me stay here for the year." she said with a chuckle. She sat on the other bed, setting her stack of notebooks next to her. Going through the stack she took out a smaller, pink one and began writing in it, getting completely lost in her thoughts. @McMajestic


Travis flashed the girl a smile as she continued to stumble her way through their interaction. He found her embarrassment and awkwardness endearing for some reason. "Hey, don't sweat it. Awkwardness breeds intrigue." he said as she let go of his hand. He was about to turn back and go to his class when Amelia came back and asked him where she was going. "Well, if it's merely the location you need, I can take you there. If you don't know what the subject is though I can't help you." he said with a chuckle. "I mean I'll try, but I won't be of much use." he walked over to her so that he was standing next to her. "So, where do you need to go?" he spoke warmly, ready to help any way he could. @Amelia White


(I will be heading in for tonight, see you all tomorrow)
 
"Oh right, I should know that, but I don't, Haha.." She laughs nervously as she tries to fish her phone out of her pocket. She pulls her schedule up on her phone. "It says my first class is Music Theory" She tells him. "And thank you in advance for putting up with my mess of a self." She laughs.


(Imma say goodnight here too, See yall :P )
 
Darrel made it to school just in time to watch the principal finish his usually welcoming speech. Someone gave her a schedule. She assumed it was hers. The school had decided to change dormitories so Darrel was no longer sleeping in the comfortable 3rd floor room she shared with three others. But all was well, she jumped on the opportunity to meet new people.


She made her way to her new room and found it only by asking two students on the way. Standing in front of the door, she heard voices chattering cheerily. Knocking thrice, she took a deep breath and waited for the answer.
