After we get our class schedules Mitch heads to Algebra 2 Mac goes to whatever class he has with a promise to meet us at lunch and me well I go to English 2 and hopefully just glade through this whole high school thing and get away from everything.

I walk down the hallway which is crowed with tons of people and at least three people have stepped on my right foot! When I finally make it to class I see Hope sitting on some guys desk laughing with him at something she said and her long red hair is up in a really high pony tail that she's been doing since she was nine, she's wearing a light pink half top with jean shorts that show off her long pale legs.

She looks up her blue/green eyes meet my pale jade ones and the biggest smile comes on her face then her eyes trace over my body (oversized black hoodie and the baggie skinny jeans that I have had for three years and that used to fit perfectly), her smile falters but when she looks at my face she smiles again happy that I'm back.

"Hey Hope." I said in as happy voice I can with a mostly real smile.

She rolls her eyes clearly not buying my happy voice she knows when it's faked but she gets up and hugs me anyways, "Hey Winter so why didn't you tell us you were coming and how come you went to Mac first? I mean girl I'm hurt that you went to him first!" She was only half joking which made my smile fully real.

"Um if it makes you better it wasn't planned and he tackled me which hurt worse then me not telling you guys I was here." I walk to the back of the room with Hope following me and once I pick a seat Hope hops on to my desk.

"Well that doesn't make up for two years so were going out after school okay?" She said. "Because damn girl two years!"

I sigh, "Well I didn't really have a choice and I can't go after school." seeing the look on her face I continue, "Because I'm taking Maya to our dad's grave." her mad face falters and she's speechless because she knows I've never been there not even for the funeral.

"Okay well tomorrow than?" She asked so hopefully and it breaks my heart having to lie well kind of, "I have no idea because I have tryouts today, tomorrow and Wednesday so maybe Thursday?"

She lets out a heavy sigh and jumps off my desk, "Fine Thursday and I have tryouts today and tomorrow to so maybe we can figure out the details then, bye I' heading to the front of the class." I wave to her and open my English 2 book just as two guys step in the room one blonde with blue/grey eyes and I'm blinded by how much white he wears and the other guy has dark brown hair that looks like he didn't even style it but I can't see his eyes because their hidden behind his black shades to match his leather jacket, blue jeans with a dark blue T-shirt. While the girls squeal loudly the teacher walks in, I pull my hood down over my head so it covers my face.

The blinding guy sits near Hope who ignores him while I try to hide a smile but I no longer want to smile when the shades guy sits beside me and gives me a curios look, shit hopefully he doesn't try to talk to me.

"Hello class we have a new student today please stand and intrude yourself." Mr. McCormick said and I hate him for it but I stand anyway.

All the students turn and look at me but I don't flinch, "Hello I'm Winter Woods, I lived here two years ago but returned last night and was told that I couldn't be home schooled anymore and that I had to go back to public school." My Dutch accent slipped as I spoke and I slowly sat down and put my earbuds in just as Mr. McCormick says "Miss Woods?" I look up at him.

"Please answer my questions before you put those in." After I nod he starts asking question about different things and I answer them all right, I guess Ms. Petrov contacted the school about my habits of not listening but still knowing the answers.

"Very well let us begin so you guys know what we were talking about...." I tune him out with loud music and start reading my English 2 book but I already know everything in the book, but I still read it to help the time fly which thankfully it does and the bell rings and as I head to the door someone taps my shoulder. Shit.
