"Well, I don't know if sitting outside just waiting is a good idea. Teachers might get a bit cranky at that" The girl stated, looking over her shoulder to check if anyone was behind them. There was nobody else but them.

"I mean... heh, I'm heading over to the pool, because I have my lessons there... but so far I haven't seen anyone else head over there. Do you have anything to do?" Elizabeth asked.
Shiloh's compliment about her name did cause the girl to shyly smile, but other than that she did manage to control herself, not blushing anymore. than she already did.
"If you want, you can maybe take a stroll with me? I wouldn't mind, really" Eli's smile switched from a shy to a welcoming one. Having this tall of a companion could really make anyone wishing to bully a newbie think again, and after seeing what was going on in the cafeteria and hearing what Neck said to her, she was a little scared. Also, the guy for his posture seemed friendly, and there was something about him that caused Eli to not be so shy towards him in comparison to, let's say, Drake.

"Well then, maybe it's time for a little bit more ink." He said trying to get her to go. "There must be something you really wanna get... It'll be fun. Plus it's more things to look at other than a pretty face to look at." He said giving her a smile. Hajar was cute, but Ryan didn't want to tell her that. She seemed like she was the type of girl that didn't like to hear that they were cute, she was a punk. He stood up. "Either way I don't care. You're the boss for the day." He said lighting a cigarette. He took a drag and let the smoke roll out of his mouth. "I'm just the driver. I sit back and relax while you do your thing."

~ Hajar Giles ~

"You think I got a pretty face?" Her face went solid like stone and serious with a deathly glare in her eyes before it melted away and grinned, "Alright.. Show me this fantastic little ink shop, I'm sure my hand could use something." She looked down at her left hand and flexed the fingers out, fantasizing about a demonic looking skull on it or maybe even some more feminine roses, she would have to think about it. Hajar got her helmet back out and started to put it on but stopped, "You know I'm a very jealous woman, I'm very jealous of Michelle here." She glanced at him, "I wish my bike was a little more beefed up but I got her through... special means." That devilish smile was back on her lips again so she popped the helmet on her head then slid into the seat behind him, tightly coiling her arms around his chest.

~ Shiloh Mitchell ~

"Uh..." Shiloh contemplated the situation for a long, most likely awkwardly long, second before looking back at her, "Yeah, I'd love to, it'd be nice to just hang out with someone and talk." He gave her a pleasant smile then stepped close to her side, "Lead the way Miss. Eli" He chuckled softly, he was sure they looked like a strange pair, David and Goliath probably. "So... Where are you from? Since you're just as new as me?" His head cocked curiously to the side as he looked down at her, the light slanting through the window made his arctic blue eyes almost glow with curiosity due to the intensity of their colors.

When she talked about how she was a jealous woman, and how she was jealous of Michelle Ryan smile grew. "I may be able to help out with that. See I got a shop that you could bring yours in and you could do some work on it." He said putting on his helmat, but stopped as well. "And I don't think that's the only reason your jealous." He said with his own devilish grin. He put his helmat on and away they went. The engine roaring as they both rode off.

The drive wasn't long, about 10 minutes or so, but Ryan pulled up to the shop. Ryan got off and took off his helmet. After Hajar was off and had taken her helmet off, he led her inside. He walked over to his artist's stall. "Jimmy, what's good man? I was thinking about getting a little bit more ink." He said.

Jimmy was about 5'10. His arms were covered in ink. Truth be told he would have his face covered too if he didn't have kids. He greated Ryan and Hajar. "I was thinking about getting something for dad right here." Ryan had said while pointing at a spot on his forearm. "Maybe the date he died." He said. "And what ever the lady would want."

Rae:

She had hidden herself away in the library at the start of lunch. Rae had her black leather jacket sitting on the back of her chair, her brown hair pulled up into a high ponytail, wearing a plain white tank top and high waisted blue jeans with her black combat boots. She wasn't in the mood to be noticed this morning, but she kept seeing all the sideways glances she was getting. She hated being the new kid. She just tried to dig her head further into her book and pretend like the world around her wasn't anywhere to be found. I need to get out of here. She mumbled to her self picking up her book and hiding her face with it. She just wanted to disappear from the crowds and skip the rest of the day. Her brother came up behind her and grabbed her shoulders causing her to jump. "Seriously? What the frick Mads???"

Mads:

He wasn't surprised that he had scared his sister, it was kind of his plan, even though he knew there would be repercussions of it. "Hows your first day going?" He said with the biggest smile on his face, hoping over the back of the chair to sit next to her. He was so happy to be the new kid, the exact opposite of his sister. "Fine, it was going fine, till you showed up" Mads could tell his sister wasn't having it this morning, or really any morning. "Okay.... Well I'm going to head to the gym to play some ball if you're looking for me" He said standing up heading out the door. "I won't be!!" She yelled from across the room, getting a stern hush from the librarian. Rae stuck her head back inside her book, Mads laughed under his breath as he opened the door and left his sister to be an emu by herself, sticking her head in the sand.

Carter:

Carter came out of the girls bathroom holding her head, dear god this hangover, why why do I do this to myself. She thought as she left the bathroom, at least she finished her history project. Popping another advil into her mouth, she wondered what the hell she had missed going on in the cafe. She was pretty sure it must have had to do with a girl. Thats usually the only type of fight that seemed to happen here. Guys were either fighting over girls or drugs or both. She went over to the vending machine to buy a vitamin water for her head. Black raybans sitting on her forhead from being inside the way too bright bathroom. Her was an oily mess laying flat against her head, with her biggest comfy sweatshirt covering her entire body, with a pair of leggings and moccasins. She went and sat down on a bench outside her next class, studying for her English test. Why, why did I pick last night of all nights to go out mid week, before the biggest test of the term. She flipped through the book, not really paying much attention to what was on the pages. Sighing as her head pounded from deyhdration​

Elizabeth

Elizabeth nodded and proceeded to head on over towards the pool. They had to walk through a rather long hallway to reach the entrance to the changing rooms. She did not know if Shiloh would like to come with her, but she wasn't counting on it. Nonetheless, Eli did hear his question about where did she come from.

"I am from the Great Cranberry Island just off the coast of Maine. It's not that far, actually, but still I have to travel by fairy every time I want to go home. My family came from Poland... or from Czechoslovakia... I can't remember, we lived in the border town. My grandparents did, anyways. We moved to Portland, and I was born there, but then when I was 16 my parents sent me off to my grandma, and after some shenanigans, I got accepted into this school and here I am. And what's your story?" The girl looked over at Shiloh, still her eyes drawn to his. Still, she slowed down her pace, just to have a bit more time to talk to him.

Ryder

The football player had been too distracted by his older brother yelling at him to notice the tray Mason had flung at him until it was too late. Hard plastic smacked against his shoulder, sure to leave a small bruise. Ryder was more than ready to go for round two, but Chase held him back with every ounce of strength in his body.

Finally, the younger boy gave up his efforts and turned his attention to Ash, certain he was going to be scolded. Not fighting had been the one thing she'd asked of him, but it seemed he couldn't even do that right. He was conflicted, because on one hand he understood her reasoning, but at the same time he wasn't just going to let some asshole talk abut his girl...best friend like that. It took time but it was easier to ignore the things people said about him, but the people he cared about? Never.

"What do you want me to do Ash? I can't just let him disrespect you like that." Ryder argued, looking at Ash with conflicting emotions. He was mad and he was guilty, but he wouldn't have done anything differently. "I know you said you want to fight your own fights, but that? You just let him treat you like shit. You might not care but I do."

"If you think I'm going to stop sticking up for the people I care about, than you don't know me at all."

Alaska

"I highly doubt that." The brunette responded, rolling her eyes at Mason and frowning as June came over to help him. After the blog incident, she was still a little weary of the red-head, but she'd never expected her to be into someone like Mason. If he hadn't been Drake's brother she would've smacked him for throwing a tray at her brother, but she'd never do anything to upset her best friend even if his brother was a complete tool. Besides, Ryder had clearly handled his own fight.

"I'm sorry our brother's are stupid. It seems there's only room for one cool kid in the family." Alaska joked, laughing at her friend's chipmunk like state. "Come over later?" She asked, giving him a quick hug before following after her brother as he headed to the principal's office to receive his fate. It was going to be a rough night once Mrs. Vaughn got home.

She paced around the hallway outside the office anxiously, wondering how her twin was going to handle the situation. Last year when Alaska had been suspended she thought her mother was going to kill her, she hoped Ryder got off easier than she had.



Chase

After Ryder got dragged down to the office by the teachers, Chase decided he'd had enough socializing for the day and headed up to the library instead.

Sawyer
​

Sawyer frowned at Grace as she talked and reassured her that she was not a prude. Honestly, she couldn't believe Natalie had the balls to say something like that in front of her. Obviously she had forgotten who Sawyer was or she would have never had the audacity. Or maybe she just thought Sawyer wouldn't punch her, like she was exempt from that. Too bad. She definitely wasn't.


Sawyer's eyebrows shot up in the air when Grace asked if anything's changed between them. She shook her head back a forth rapidly. Nothing was changing, just because Natalie's evil ass had decided to show up didn't mean they had to stop being them. Sawyer would rather die before she let Natalie cause problems between them.


"No. Of course not." Sawyer assured her, "She's evil and I want nothing to do with her." Her free hand went up and rubbed down the side of Grace's arm, "And so help me if she does anything to you I'm gonna end up in fucking jail. I swear."

~ Hajar Giles ~

Hajar rolled her eyes at his comment, was she jealous of something more? Maybe? Only time would tell. The ride was short but she enjoyed every moment of it, the power of the engine roaring and the wind whipping by her head, all of it made her adrenaline pump through her veins. "I honestly don't know how much you can outfit what's basically a dirt bike, maybe I can lift a new bike now that I'm a little settled." She shrugged her shoulders once they stopped, she loved flashy things but low key was what she needed to stick with right now. Hajar loved tattoo shops, the music thumping and the strange looking people inside made her feel right at home. She nodded her greeting to Jimmy then shuffled over to some books or art work and pieces on the wall, looking around with interested eyes. "You'll have to give me a minute to think... So many choices, so little time." She smiled over her shoulder at Jimmy and Ryan before looking back at the pieces with keen eyes.

~ Shiloh Mitchell ~

"Shenanigans? You?" He chuckled softly at the word, trying to imagine what kind of shenanigans a girl like her could get into. Shiloh thought about his life up until this point, how he got from a little boy living it up the hollers of Tennessee to a tiny town on the coast in Maine, "Well... I guess it's a little long but I can condense it." He slowed his pace to match her, hooking his thumbs through the loops on his jeans. "I grew up on a tiny farm in Tennessee pretty much my whole life... Never really been anywhere else." His shoulders shrugged a little, "But my daddy died, so the banks foreclosed on our farm, everything kinda went wrong at once for us." His eyes got a little dark with sadness but the feeling got pushed back inside, "So mom took a job here, we loaded up the whole farm, horses and all. So here I am in Westbrook High... It's been an adventure to say the least."

Ash had no idea how to respond to Ryder, and just shook her head. "I... I don't know, Ryder." As the teachers approached, Ash knew that, well, she wasn't going to have time to really talk, anyway. "I'll talk to you later, okay? After school?" Or, well, after her talk with Ryan, but she decided not to mention that.

After the boys were taken away thanks to the teachers, Ash just shook her head and turned, heading out of the cafeteria. The last thing she wanted to do was hangout here, with the broken table and all the mess, and everyone's eyes staring at her. It seemed like no matter what she did, that stupid rumor still hung around her, letting everyone know what she had done. Mason's words had been annoying, yes, but they were just that -- words. And she'd been ready to ignore them.

It was these kinds of situations that made her question liking Ryder, and brought her thoughts back to Ryan. Although, in the end, Ryan wasn't much better. Bad boys sucked. Fighty boys sucked. Where the heck were the dudes who just wanted to be nice, polite, and not destroy everything in their path?

Shaking thoughts of everything from her head, Ash headed towards the gym. What? When she was stressed out, she'd head to the gym and practice some cheerleading moves or whatever the heck she wanted to do. Either way, it was a nice way to get her feelings out as she changed her clothes and headed into the gym, only to see someone else had already made it to the gym. He must've been new or... something because Ash certainly didn't recognize him.

Mason

He shot a dirty look at Alaska, and this his gaze broke a bit when he looked at June. "I'm fine. I'll talk to you after, alright?" He smiled at June, and then turned as the teachers came over and rudely escorted him away. Mason shot a dirty look at Ryder as he limped his way after the teachers, his whole body throbbing sorely as they led the two boys into the fearsome Principal Nona's office for whatever stupid punishment they would receive.

Principal Nona was a small lady, and, well, this was her first year as principal. And so far, it was annoying and she was slowly despising all the kids that kept tumbling into her office at all hours of the day. And these two boys in particular -- oh boy. Mason had already broken his leg thanks to Kanen, and Ryder had injured his nose also thanks to Kanen.

And now with Kanen out of the picture, these boys seemed to turn on each other. So strange. "So, would you two like to explain to me exactly what happened?" She asked, trying to keep her calm.

Drake

Am too lazy to type this fully.

Drake grinned, nodding his head at Alaska and then gave her a thumbs up before he turned, smiling at June. "Are you like, worried about Mason?" He asked, tilting his head to the side curiously, before he realized Raven was also there, and his eyes lit up with happiness. "Raven! Where did you come from!"

Two friends, right here, right now. Best day ever.

Well, lunch had been a total catastrophe, so after finishing his meal, he headed for his favorite place ever: the music room. Jace was taking a break from practicing the songs for the musical, and instead just wanted to focus on doing things that made him happy or something -- or maybe he'd try practicing the piano. Whatever it was, it would be nice.

However, as he stepped into the music room, his eyes immediately settled on the forlorn figure of Stu, looking miserable. "Hey... bud. What's wrong?" Jace asked awkwardly as he made his way over and took a seat next to Stu on the piano bench, and then reached over and gently started patting Stu on the back. He looked at the chocolate on Stu's face, and knew something serious must've happened. Poor kid. "Did someone die? Do you need a hug?"

Jace panicked him he offered. He was not a hugger, and had already had to overcome so much in his relationship with Nova. But if Stu wanted a hug, well, Jace would suck it up. Probably. Maybe.

"So you're a southener, who moved up north... that's interesting. I have yet to visit that side of the US." Eli said, trying hard to imagine how the Southern United States, and especially Tennessee, would look like. But nothing really came to mind except some stereotypical features, and she knew that was not it. So she held on saying anything more.

She laughed gently at him doubting her "shenanigans"
"Yeah, life can be pretty tough sometimes, you know." She said, rubbing her arm lightly as they continued to walk. She hasn't told anyone about her problems during her two-year long break in between moving to Cranberry Island and getting accepted into this school, and it's best left that way, she thought to herself

"Say, what's it like to be this tall?" The girl looked back up at the guy's face. She felt like a midget talking to a basketball player, and that was a weird feeling, having to look up every time you'd want to see the person's face/eyes. Also, they were slowly approaching the ladies changing rooms... well, at least that was what she assumed, based on the signs she saw in the distance.​

Rae:

Mindlessly she continued to flip through her book, what time is it even.... She looked up and above the door to the entrance of the library where the clock showed it was about mid lunch, yet the halls seemed to be filling with people. Had she gotten the times wrong? Was she about to be late to class, not that she really cared. Just then someone walked into the library that she didn't recognize. Not that she knew anyone in the school except for her brother.

Mads:

Mads ran around the gym shooting baskets with himself, he had the goofiest smile on his face, he was overall a happy guy. This move had given him the chance to start over, and he was so happy to have gotten away from his old small town, he couldn't wait to get a chance to go to the board walk. He threw the basketball from the three point line at the backboard only to have it bounce off the rim and towards the door, he turned around the chase it down. His smile never leaving his face, till he saw that he wasn't alone any more, as the ball rolled to this little blondes feet. She was almost an entire foot shorter than him. He rubbed the back of his neck super awkwardly "sorry about that" He ran one hand through his hair. "Hi, I'm Madison! My sister and I just moved here" He was super confident in his name now a days. He stuck out his hand for a hand shake.

“But I...” She said her voice faltering when he smiled at her. She always liked it when he smiled at her. Then she heard the doors open and the principle coming in. She frowned a bit as the two had to go. Hopefully they’ll talk later and he’s not suspended. She rubbed her arm nervously and then looked at Raven then Drake.

She felt a little saddened by Drake’s comment. “Well, of course!” She said. “Why does everyone think that’s strange? I care about him and I don’t like it when he’s hurt.” She looked over to the table. Then she glanced at Alaska for a moment realizing it was her brother’s doing that got Mason hurt. But, she wasn’t too keen to talk to her after what happened with the blog. She tugged a little on Raven’s shirt, concern written on her face. She leaned in quickly and asked, “Do you think he’ll be suspended?” Then pulled back. She was nervous, the first time someone has asked her to homecoming and he’s in trouble. As well as the first guy to ask her on a date.

Ryan nodded when Hajar said that she would need some time. Picking a tattoo was always you wanted to take some time on. They were going to stay on their body forever. Ryan sat down in the chair. Now Ryan was a big guy and jimmy was not. Jimmy was all set up. He sat down in his chair. He started to work on Ryan. Nothing was better then someone shooting a needle into your flesh a thousand times over. It was a sweet but bitter feeling.

Jimmy didn't take long. It wasn't a huge tattoo so it took about 40 minutes. After he cleaned off the blood and wrapped it up so that it would stay clean. He gave Ryan the same old speech of cleaning it and keeping it moist. After he was done, Ryan stood up and walked over to Hajar. "What are you thinking about?" He asked looking at some of the selections that were in the book.

The boy glanced at the door as it creaked open to the lanky figure of his good friend, Jace. He quickly looked away, though, his eyes falling back onto the keys in front of him, as he continued improvising a detached melody with his forefinger. Then Stu felt Jace’s weight bearing on the rickety piano bench, which squeaked and wobbled dangerously on its four thin legs; it was a good thing that neither of the boys were particularly heavy. Then Jace put a hand on Stu’s back, patting it gently. Stu scooted over a little so his friend had some space to settle down next to him.

Now Stu took his hand off the piano and rubbed the tip of his nose. Jace was his friend, and he’d seen Jace crying before also, so Stu wasn’t too ashamed that he’d been discovered in such a sorry state. Now it was Jace’s turn to return the favour, and Stu told him what had happened in his soft-spoken manner: ‘It’s so stupid. I tried asking this new girl out. . . to homecoming. . . not even as a date or anything, but she said no. . . and I feel bad. And I know, it’s like nothing. Not even a date. It’s so stupid. . . I’m so pathetic.’ At this point he didn’t know whether to laugh at himself or cry. In the end, though, he decided he would do the latter. And so he cried.

‘I think. . . maybe. . . maybe she doesn’t want me anymore,’ the boy sniffled, kneading his knuckles into the wet corners of his eyes, ‘I mean, my mum. . . she never came. . . when I was in hospital and all that. And she never calls me or Dad. . . and I miss her so much, I don’t know what to do. . .’

Did he need a hug? He didn’t answer. He just wrapped his arms gently round his friend and there he quietly sobbed.

Raven
​

Raven rolled her eyes when Mason spoke to June, she was more than ready to throw him into another table. Watching the smallest exchange between was exhausting, glad when he finally got taken away. Raven raised a brow at Drake’s question, eager to hear her answer only to be let down, if there was a ledge she would jump off it. It’s only strange because he’s an asshole. And you’re well.. nevermind. That’s what she wanted to say, but decided against it. of course June cared, why did Raven think there was a chance she didn’t?

She grinned towards Drake. “Only from the great gods themselves.” Did he expect a different answer? Turning her attention to the red-head that tugged on her shirt she couldn’t help but have a small smile at the action. Her smile faded when she asked about Mason, as much as Raven wanted him to. He probably won’t get suspended. “Hopefully...not i mean. ” She attempted to reassure her, although it didn’t sound very reassuring.

After a moment of just looking at her, she could tell she was upset about it all. With a heavy sigh she begrudgingly spoke. “No, i don’t think he’ll be suspended.” She put a hand on her arm to gain her attention. “Besides, even if the smallest chance he does, he’ll probably still see you. Who would want to miss out on homecoming with the infamous MJ?” It was the truth, she wasn’t exactly happy with talking Mason up, but if it helped.. it helped.

"Good! All taken care of. Now, let's grab a quick lunch." Her guide moved her toward the Canton. "So should I expect fights everyday?" Amanda asked, lining up behind the man. "Yeah, a lot of fights happen at this school. We have a lot of troubled people." The guide replied, watching the cafeteria lady dump a heap of chicken fingers and fries onto his plate. He looked back at her and noticed her empty plate. "I'll just have my packed lunch." Amanda said, eyeing the soggy chicken fingers and fries. She reached into her cat shapped bag and pulled out a bento box. Her mother packed her lunch today. She opened the bento box, revealing pieces of boneless fried chicken, sticky rice, and steamed veggies. "Man, I wish I could make my lunch like that everday." He eyed her neatly arranged lunch before shaking his head.​

​

After finishing her small meal, Amanda put the box onto the table. "Lunch done. Now, you should go around a meet some new people. Try the new guy over there." He tilted his head toward the boy standing alone. Amanda gave him a look as if she asked 'do I really have to'.​

​

"Yeah, you have to. The counselor is making sure that new students have at least one friend." The guide then shooed her off. He continued to stuff his mouth with the so called food.​

When the ball rolled to a stop by her feet, Ash leaned over and picked it up, smiling as the new kid walked over and introduced himself. "Madison? Interesting name." She said, and shook his hand, tucking the basketball under her other arm for a moment. "I'm Ashton, but everyone just calls me Ash." Although apparently, people thought it was alright to call her Ashton when they were angry.

She passed the ball back to him. "Well this is like, the worst week to start school for the first time." Ash said jokingly... okay, partially joking, partially serious. It was always a bad time to start at Westbrook. Always. "And uh, sorry... for intruding in here, I guess. I didn't know there was anyone else here and I didn't want to stay in the cafeteria." Stupid punchy boys.

Oh boy. Oh no. So Stu was upset about a girl, his mom, and he was covered in snot and hugging him. Jace uncomfortably held him and kept patting his back. "There, there. I'm sure it'll be fine." Jace said and looked around for anyone that could help. Oh great. It was only him.

"Well, hey, she's new and at least you asked and didn't just spend years waiting. Think about it. Wouldn't you rather have your heart broken then look back years from now wondering what could've been?" Did that make sense? Well, whatever, Jace hoped Stu would take it and it would help him or something.

"And hey, if your mother is too busy to check on you or be in your life, it's her loss, not yours." Jace said, his own thoughts trailing back to just a few years ago when his own mother had left. Just disappeared without a trace. He remembered that she had come in, told him goodbye, and given him a present of a yellow beanie before she had left that night. Jace hadn't known that when she said goodbye, she'd meant forever.

Jace pushed those thoughts out of his mind. "Anyway, look, I know it hurts but you've got your dad. And you've got me, and I'm sure you'll make plenty of more friends. You'll be fine, Stu. You're a tough little dude."​

Mads:

"Thanks, its a family name, but I usually just go by Mads." He caught the ball as she passed it to him, "What do you mean? Its been great so far.." He was pretty oblivious to everything that had happened to be going on in the school. He saw something that made it pretty obvious that she wasn't really wanting to talk about it. She had that look about her that he recongized from his sister, when she just needed to have a distraction. He changed the subject quickly. "Do you play?" He dribbled the ball at his feet.​

Ash was glad when he didn't push the subject and instead just changed it. Yeah, talking about the various fights and drama going on was starting to get old, and she just wanted something simple. Like this, like talk about basketball. "I don't play, but I know the concept. Ball goes through the hoopy thingy and you have to dribble." Okay, so everyone probably knew those things, but hey, that's all that Ash truly knew about it. Basketball had never truly interested her. "Sorry. I just do cheerleading."​

Mads:
​

He chuckled at her sorry. "No need to be sorry, that's all you really need to know to throw around a ball and distract yourself from everything around you." He passed her the ball and started making his way down the court still looking at her. "Come on, I swear its less boring than it seems." His smile still plastered across his face, it was almost like this kid never stopped smiling.

For the most part this past month and for most of school in general, Xenon had been ignoring everything going on around him. He wasn't friends with any of the more popular kids that seemed to be causing all the trouble, but he was glad to be apart from them. The boy would much rather focus on his studies than any other drama. He had expectations to uphold after all. After the whole scene in the cafeteria where toxic masculinity had made two boys he didn't know start ragging on each other, he was glad he'd been far away from that event, Xenon had decided it best to leave the cafeteria.


With nowhere in particular he needed to be, and a free period next, Xenon decided to head to the art room. He felt comfortable there away from prying eyes and secluded from the noisy antics of the rest of the school. Xenon wasn't paying any attention to where he was walking, to busy trying to draw and walk at the same time. This futile attempt would ultimately be his down fall that afternoon.


Xenon's shins slammed into a bench and he dropped the pencil in his hand, the eraser he'd put between his lips fell when he made a pained groan sound. Without casting a glance around him Xenon bent down and retrieved his pencil and eraser, and it wasn't until he straightened up again that he noticed the girl sitting on the bench. The red head seemed to be studying, or at least attempting too, and he'd most likely just interrupted her. Despite the fact that she didn't look too friendly Xenon found himself wanting to apologize for being clumsy.


"Oh, sorry, miss. I wasn't paying attention to where I was going." He could've just walked off then and there but Xenon made no move to go. Instead he stood there a bit awkwardly, shifting his weight from one foot to the other and rubbing his arm subconsciously.

Well, Madison obviously didn't quite understand just how much she didn't understand this game. "Okay, so let me rephrase this. I also can't dribble for, like, the life of me." To demonstrate, Ash bounced the ball, and it went too high, and then tried to take off before she grabbed it. "See?!" She said, and then tossed the ball to Madison and followed him down the court. This is why Ash just stuck with cheerleading. It was so much easier than bouncing things or throwing things. "Can you cheerlead?" Hey, it was the only thing Ash really understood.​

Mads
​

He just shook his head smiling. "you don't have to throw it against the ground so hard!!" He dropped the ball on the ground stopping it before it could roll away. "I mean.. I've never been taught a cheer, and I definitely don't know this schools cheers..." He started to dance and try to make up cheers to random things. "Give me a P!-I!-Z!-Z!-A! What does that spell!? PIZZA!" He jumped into the air attempting to do a split mid air but he was definiently not flexible enough in general, and his jeans did not have the give he needed. "How was that? Would you consider that good enough to be on the cheer team?" Mad's was really good at making fun of himself and messing around, he always wanted a good laugh.

Carter

If looks could kill, Carter had the death glare down. But every part of her was aching and she had no energy to take out on anyone else. Instead she just sighed as loudly as humanly possible, slowly slid her sunglasses down her face, not taking her eyes off of Xenon, before taking a swig of her vitamin water and turning her attention back to her book. It wasn't before long that she noticed he was still standing there. She huffed and tilted her glasses off her nose. "can I help you?" ​

Xenon
​

He definitely should've already left. But it was too late now. Xenon desperately tried to think of something not awkward to say and ended up standing there in silence for much longer than he would've liked. In the end he just ended up letting whatever came to his head fall out of his mouth.


"Sorry, um, I'm Xenon. Like the element." He stuck his hand out with a grin but then retracted it after a moment, "Are you feeling alright?" It was probably stupid to say that to a girl but he'd already jumped down the rabbit hole and there was no ladder, might as well keep falling. Xenon pulled his backpack around to where he could open it and fumble around in it.


"I've got some aspirin somewhere in here. I've got a lot of medicine actually, I'm like a walking drug store." He laughed a bit at his own stupid joke, "Not that I sell drugs or anything. I totally don't I just have over the counter- oh here it is!" Xenon pulled the bottle of aspirin out of his backpack and held it out to her proudly like he had just found a thousand bucks.


Xenon could recognize a hangover when he saw one, his father had had one too many over the past few months and he knew they could be killer. Even if he didn't know her, and she seemed rather off putting, he didn't want the red head to suffer.
