Fitting In.

He was new and didn't really fit in; he knew he wouldn't have a chance getting along with a bunch of spoiled kids. It wasn't that his family didn't have money; because they did well his father did, at least. Robert Baratheon, C.E.O. to one of the top investment banks in the world, Realm investments. Rhaegar Targaryen (whose younger siblings went to Pentos prep, which is West-Tech's rivals.) was the one that Robert had cut in line for the CEO position. Jofferry and Tommen, two of Roberts sons where already attending West – Tech, or Westeros Technical Academy. Gendry was very nervous because Robert had cheated on his wife with Gendry's mother making going to school with his "Half-brothers" feel a little odd. Not only where they returning students but Gendry knew that would all six Stark children be going, too. He met their father 'Ned' at a dinner party. Ned was the President, best friend, and right 'hand' to Robert. People would say that Ned practically runs 'The Realm' while Robert doesn't destroy what everyone has worked so hard to build.

But here he was, Gendry Baratheon, following Sansa Stark, head of the welcoming committee, showing him around to the boys dorm.

"The rules are two boys to a room," Sansa said. "So just find a room or someone to share with. And just look for me if you need some more help although the dorm director should be capable of that." Before he could ask who the dorm director was, she was gone.

He soon found that there were five floors; each floor belonged to a certain grades. Gendry was a freshman so he got to live on the top floor with the other High school aged students, which included Robb and Jon Stark (Co-captains of the football team.), Theon Grayjoy (Also on the football team), Sandor Clegane (Who was one of the largest junior and linebacker Gendry had ever seen.), and yes, Jofferry. There were others but he hadn't really taken note looking around he saw everyone had a roommate. Robb and Jon, Sandor and Jofferry (For some odd reason.) Theon was the oldest senior and there-for he got his own room. Gendry wandered down the halls and found he was looking into a room with a pudgy freshman who was eating a cookie. He was startled when Gendry cleared his throat.

"This bed taken?" He asked

"Nope," The boy said enthusiastically. "Are you new here?"

"Ya, I'm Gendry," he held out his hand.

"Everyone just calls me HP, it's short hot pies." Then he shook Gendry's hand. "Come on, I'll show you around."

HP showed Gendry the mess hall, Gym, football field, registration; so Gendry could sign up for classes and activities and Hot Pies even showed Gendry the girl's dorms.

"Who are they?" Gendry asked, pointing to a small group of a small group of people students that had formed in front of the mess hall for lunch.

"They're the stark kids," Hot Pies told him. "They always eat together, the oldest Robb really stresses that they stick together as a family, even though everyone knows Sansa Stark can't stand Jon and Arya Stark." HP explained. "Sansa have public fights almost every day. Hey, come on, I'm starving."

They walked in to the mess hall and Gendry could see the clear cliques that where at every table, except for the Stark table and Jofferry's table, which seated Tommen, Sandor, and himself. Gendry really didn't care about what was going on and was starring and his sandwich for a long time; he didn't hear it when someone cleared their voice, startling Gendry.

Then they, when he was looking up, they said,

"Gendry right, Hi. I'm Robb and this is my brother Jon." Robb stark stated

"Hi." Jon said sticking his hand out.

Gendry shook his hand, "Hi," he said.

"Well we were wondering that maybe you would like to try out for football." Robb confessed and Gendry looked everything but enthusiastic. "We could really use some more big line backers, although if weren't against the rules I'm sure Sandor could knock everyone down and score a touchdown." All the boys looked at Sandor who was Starring at something, or someone. "Just try out at least, it'll be fun."

Later on when Gendry was in the registration office, he hadn't planned on it but he put football as his after school activity. He also signed up for metal shop, English 1, Algebra 1, Principals of Science, Co-ed PE, and, because a second language was required, Hungarian.

"When are football tryouts?" Gendry asked the office secretary.

"In, oh about twenty minutes," She answered, "On the field."

"Ok, thanks," he said and ran toward the field.


Gendry couldn't believe how many students were at the field. Not only football tryouts but Cheer tryouts, and dance, and drill, Along with about 300 students to watch on the bleachers.

"Glad you could make it." Jon said as Gendry took a seat with all the other boys trying out. The guys that where already on the team like Theon and Sandor were watching the cheer tryouts, which bugged Robb to no end because he felt like they were watching Sansa, who was going out for varsity. Gendry could soon see why Robb and Jon, who were sophomore, where captains and not any upper-classmen. They were nice and enthusaic, calling out drills and plays. When tryouts where done Robb said that tomorrow a list of everyone who made the team would be posted on the bulletin board by the front door of the boys dorm tomorrow morning, and to check it out on your way to class.

"What if you're not allowed in the boys dorms!" A small voice from the back yelled.

"Arya…" Robb said unpleasantly.

"HA HA HA!" Theon boomed. "You think you made varsity? You're a freshman and a girl."


The next morning, on his way to class Gendry almost forgot about football, he was in a rush to get breakfast. But the girl looking to see if she had made it quickly reminded him. She walked out the door before he got to the paper; too see that his name was under the section for linebacker. Jofferry made second string and there it was, there was her name. Arya Stark – Full back, it read. She's fast, he thought.


SO...? Sorry for any grammar and spelling mistakes.
