Hi, I'm starting on this new category from my usual Heroes of Olympus and Percy Jackson. I own nothing that is obviously already owned.

First day of school.

Jenny POV

I let go of my breath. I was afraid of a scene on the first day of school by the Pops- as in popular. But so far, Addie and her "friends" were no where to be seen. Chloe walked over to my locker with me. "Hey," she said. "We got to get going. We have Mrs. Arlington first period. I'm not sure if we want to be late to her class after what Liza, Marc, and the twins said."

I nodded and closed locker 307. "Yeah, we better get going. I jus hope we don't have Pops in our class."

I knew that was hardly possible. I knew in the back of my brain that Addie was going to be there with Dana.

Lunch finally came. This year, I got fourth period lunch with Chloe, Josh, and, thankfully, Felicia and Rachel. My eighth grade friends all had sixth period lunch. As I sat down, a girl who I never seen, walked by and bulged her eyes when they landed on Josh. "Josh, is that you?" she cried.

Mr. Genius looked quizzical, "Zoë? What are you doing here in Joyce Kilmer? I thought you went to Lorral."

"Used to. The school closed down, so the kids were split by where they lived. Now I come here. Calliope, Harmony, Derek, Harry, Olivia, Veronica, and Xavier are here too."

"Seriously? The whole gang?"

The girl, Zoë, nodded. Felicia looked angry. "How do you guys know each other?"

"We went to the same summer course over the summer, CTY (I don't own that). The other people we mentioned were in our class too."

Zoë motioned for her tablemates to come. She started pointing out who was who. A boy with brown curly hair was Derek Dickinson. Two girls with blonde hair and what they said were natural brown highlights were Harmony and Olivia Munroe. Calliope and Harry Robinson had blonde hair and tanned skin. Finally, a Hispanic boy with a fuzzy haircut was Xavier Sanchez. He seemed to be looking at Zoë in a hungry way. "He must like her," I thought.

Zoë said, "My last name is Yu. And stop that Xavier. You can stop acting like you know everything because your dad isn't a teacher here."

I didn't ask about that because more than likely it would become a back-story.

I introduced my other friends and myself. But Zoë seemed to be looking past me at the Pop table. "Don't even bother," I said. "They won't let you join."

"I don't want to join them. That guy over there. That's Henry Wolf."

I looked at where she was pointing at. A boy who looked like Xavier except with a happier face was smiling next to Addie. Rachel looked over as well. "Oh, that's Addie's boyfriend," she said. "They met over the summer."

I'm basically writing this because there are only two stories posted in this category.
