Chapter 1
Bonnibel was never particularly popular, nor was she particularly unpopular. People just didn't seem to understand her interests, nor did she understand theirs, which is probably why she found it so difficult to make good friends.
This was a signature problem when moving to a new school; "Ooo Senior High? what a silly name" she giggled to herself as she sat in the backseat of the car. But even worse, it was a public school. Definitely not something a high achieving private school teen was ever accustomed too.
The car hit a speed bump which jolted her thoughts, as it pulled into a park about 3 lines back from the school. The sound of the hand break lead to silence in the car as she stared blank faced into the back of the seat in front of her. Pepper turned to face her.
"Now, you have a good first day won't you?"
The girl looked up from her trance like state and gave a small nod as she exited the car with her pink bag. "Well, at least it is a nice day."
...
As soon as she entered the school, everything was going wrong. Not only was the student service office difficult to find, but they were also taking forever to sort out her details to send her on her way, which meant she'd have to awkwardly walk into her first class late. She sat quietly in the waiting room trying to appear calm... but she hated not doing anything. It meant that she began to think... about her life, how her parents recently split, how her father wanted to move away as far as he could, and how she was dumped on her uncle Pepper, unsure of what was really going on. Part of her wanted to find out, but part of her wanted to remain in her own little bubble and get on with her own life, which is what she intended to do...
The door diagonally in front of her flung open suddenly and in came a small, lovely looking old lady which she knew to be the principle, and a young dark haired teen floundering behind.
"Aww c'mon Mrs T, I wasn't doing anything bad or... ah... particularly disruptive at all, that teacher just really friggin' hates me!"
Bonnibel was surprised at the sudden disruption and looked at the odd pair standing in the doorway. The taller teen was wearing an open red flannelette shirt with a tight fitting black singlet underneath and black skinny jeans with rips at the knees, these lead onto red converse style shoes. Her look was completed with an array of loose dog tags around her neck. Although the platinum blonde lady was almost half her size, she seemed in complete control of everything and everyone around her. The lady ignored the girls' pleas and walking straight to Bonnibel, handing her a timetable, and then turning back to the other girl.
"Now now Marceline, I know you don't try to get yourself in trouble, but you have to learn to be more respectful towards others. Since it's the first day back, I'm only going to ask you to escort this kind young lady to her class, which shouldn't be too difficult of a task, correct?"
The dark haired girl turned to face the other girl dressed almost entirely in pink, looking her up and down. This sent shivers down Bonnie's spine.
"Gee Mrs T... I didn't kill anyone."
The new girls nervousness suddenly turned to anger as though that comment triggered something inside her, she was about to open her mouth to make a smart comment back when the dark haired girl continued.
"Nah, just kidding, if it gets me out of shit, i'm up to it, come on."
...
The pair walked down the silent corridors with Bonnie following closely behind Marceline, Bonnibel staring intently at her timetable. The dark haired girl glanced back to the array of pink following close behind as she was walking.
"So... Mr. Lemon's class for science, yea?"
Bonnie looked up from her failed attempt at trying to read her timetable, normally she would wear glasses to read but she didn't want to look like a complete nerd on her first day.
"ah... um, yea?"
"Well... welcome to hell." Marceline smirked as she turned back to watch where she was walking.
The pair turned right into another corridor and as she did, Marcelines movements slowed to a stop.
"Hold up Princess..."
"Princes...?
"Shut!"
With the taller girl holding her index finger up to the pink girls face, Bonnie turned to see a reflection of a figure in the glass doors. The figure was walking closer to turn into their corridor when Marceline turned to Bonnibel.
"Yup... Asshole alert"
The girl grabbed the shoulder of Bonnies shirt and dragged her back around the corner, sub-consciously pushing her against the wall to keep out of sight.
"Wha..."
Stunned, Bonnibel struggled to find words as Marceline pushed her weight against her, one hand still on her right shoulder and her other elbow on the wall next to her left ear, keeping them both out of sight. Bonnie didn't exactly know why the taller girl had sprawled herself across her, but her closeness was something she was not use too... not by any human.
"Shhhhh..."
Bonnibel looked up to Marcelines' face, only centimetres away from hers as they both kept flat against the wall, her cheeks began to grow warm looking directly at the other girls face, even though it was turned to face the approaching figure. Footsteps slowly came closer to the corner and the taller girls grip tightened around the shoulder of Bonnie's sweater, pushing their bodies closer, there was a long moment of silence followed as a tall dark figure emerged from the corner with a white mohork receding from the bottom of his neck, right over to the front of their face.
The figure walked nonchalantly past the corner they were hidden and into a distant corridor.
Becoming aware of their closeness, Bonnie heart began to fasten and her body heat up.. What the hell? She thought to herself as the taller girl slowly backed up and peeped out from the corner.
"Coast is clear!"
"...Ah... Yea"
Nope... Nope. There was no fucking way... why the hell did her body react like that... maybe it was just lack of human contact? Yea that's it...
"You coming or nah?"
Bonnie nodded and regained her stature taking a step toward the older girl. They continued to walk to their first class.
...
Approaching the door of the classroom, everything seemed quiet... finally she was there, it seemed like this took forever.
"Here we are!"
"Ah, thanks..."
"Cya"
"But aren't you in this class..."
Bonnibel looked up to see Marceline already walking down the corridor waving a hand in her direction.
"Well... that's that then" Bonnie said under her breath as she opened the door to the classroom, facing what she expected the entire time. Every face turned to look at her entering the classroom.
"mmmmmmmyes?"
Wow... what a creep...
"My name is... ahh, well you can call me Bubblegum"
"oh... a new student... Yes!? Ahaha... sit down now please." Mr. Lemon seemed to struggle with his words
Bonnie shot the teacher a wierd glance but without wanting to question, sat in the second row.
...
The bell rang for the start of break and Bonnie sat at a table with her new found 'friends', if you could even call them that...
"OHH MYY GLLOB, so like, do you know what would look, like, super cute on you, if you wore, like a blue collar underneath that pink sweater... OR, maybe like, a white sweater? Yea that would go, WAIT was that Finn that just walked past... oh my glob, it totes was. Guys... I think he's looking in our direction... OH MY GLOB! I think he is totally looking at me!"
So... when she thought of making friends, she didn't exactly think these types of friends;
A chubby girl, Laura (or LSP when her full name was abbreviated) who really knew how to accentuate her figure well, and actually might have been quite attractive if it wasn't for her obnoxious attitude. Her slightly less obnoxious friend, Melissa, who kinda just went along with what LSP was saying most of the time, and a lovely blonde girl, who despite colourful style, seemed to be lost behind the other attention seeking girls...
"So...how long have you known these two for?"
The blonde gave an almost bored expression
I've... ah only...(I've only been here for half a year)
Crap... of course she doesn't speak much English, but so very conveniently, I can speak a little bit of Korean :D
"Huh wow... (That must be quite difficult for you then)"
The blonde girl nodded and looked back down to the ground. Not much of a speaker either...
"Wait... you guys were talking about me, weren't you, like you don't have to tell me, I know i'm awesome."
Bonnie stared at the girl in the purple dress standing in front of her.
Hold up... I can work with this.
"Ah, yea, you're totally cool, but..." Bonnie thought about what she was saying carefully.
"It looks as though that chick has been glancing over here quite often"
Bonnie nodded toward Marceline, who was sitting by herself writing in a notebook, she hoped that this would at least give her some information on the girl, and what better way than through the gossip of the school
"Oh... My... Glob... are you flippin' kidding me? Like ew, who does she even think she is, ain't no lesbian touching these lumps"
Bonnie eyebrow raised
"Lesbian?"
"YA! She is like, a total dyke, I seen her tryna hit on all the chicks, good thing everyone ELSE has morals, cuz I bet she's a slut too."
Wow... who knew... but I mean it doesn't particularly surprise her considering the passing circumstances.
...
Bam! Whats little ol' Bubblegum thinking :O!? Well I hope this goes in the direction i'm intending it, but I think it worked out okay so far. (And I apologize if the school system shown within is different from what you're use to... the only one I know is the English/Australian one, but i'm trying to make it flooow)
Ta ta!
