1. "You've been my bestfriend since Junior High."

A dark haired boy sat by himself in the gym while everyone else was running around the hall. The small 13 year old, chocolate skinned boy decided to introduce himself. "Hey, I'm Danny," he said.

"I'm Henry," the young, slightly flushed boy answered with a smile. He was never really the first to introduce himself to new people. He preferred to spend his time alone. Or with Abby, but he only got to see her in the summers now.

He felt restless when he was away from Harper's Island, but he did want new friends, and now was his chance.

"Why don't you join our group when we play dodgeball?" said Danny inviting him over to where his friends were. Their class wasn't as big as usual today. Their teacher, Mr. Stinkybreath, made all the kids want to skip. Well, that was his nickname anyway. That's why the two hours of gym is spent with a younger class.

"Hey," he said, smiling at the little gang that stood in one end of the hall, all of them with one ball in their hands. There were four guys with Danny.
"Hi, I'm Joel," another kid explains with a dorky smile as he pushed his glasses further up his nose.
"Booth. They just call me Booth," he points at his friends with his thumb.
"Sully," a skinny blond haired boy says, waving a hand at him.
"Weird name," Henry said, before he had the chance to stop himself.
Great, he had just screwed his chance for new friends. The blond boy just glares at him for a few seconds before cracking up,
"It's just a nickname. Christopher is appearently too long for Malcolm to remember," he nods sideways at a lumpy, curly haired boy who's throwing his ball against the wall before having the ball smack him right in the face. Sully laughs at it before nudging Booth in the side, making the dark haired boy squirm a little.

"Listen up kids! I want you all of you to split up in four groups, not the usual two. It'll be harder this way," Mr. Stinkybreath announces and the kids make groups, though the friends Henry just met keeps the one they have.
"Common new-guy. We'll kick their butts," Sully says as he hands Henry a ball.
"Hope you have a good aim!" he smiles at the dark haired kid.
"See that big kid over there?" Sully pointed at a bully in one corner with his group.
"He's a jerk. Keeps trying to steal Booth's lunch money."
"Then we'll teach him a lesson," Henry lets the ball roll in his hands to get a better grip,
"They will wish I never started on this school," Henry grins wickedly, eager to show who they're up against. Sully frowns for a second before shaking it off,
"That's the spirit!"
