Chapter 1: Surprise…?
Madison sunk into her seat, sighing in exasperation. After taking Biology for the third time, you knew most everything they had to offer. But when you went to the same high school that your parents MET at, surprises kept coming.
"Madison," a girl, her usual lab partner, said casually as he sat down at the open seat next to her. Plain. That seemed to be the only adjective that Madison could use to describe her. She had straight, flat brown hair, dull blue eyes, and an OK fashion sense—not that anyone could stand up to her one-and-only aunt.
"Carlie," Madison responded flatly. "You know, I had a dog named Carlie, once."
"And I had a boyfriend named Madison." She shook her head, her brown curls bouncing rapidly. "Guess who asked me to prom?"
"Your boyfriend?" she guessed, tired of her games already.
Carlie's brow puckered and she shook her head in confusion. "Er…no…try again." Wow…
Madison rolled her eyes and kept quiet, knowing that she would 'tell you anyways'. Girls like Carlie were predictable—cute, petit girls who were usually surrounded by guys and needed a separate planner to keep up with who she was dating when.
"Okay," she said excitedly. "I'll tell you anyways."
"Oh joy, please do," Madison said in flat excitement. Carlie glared at her.
"Anyways, Danny asked me."
"Gasp, no he did not. Oh look, class has begun. We will have to continue some other day," Madison said in a flat, mechanical voice. She was sick of people already. It usual didn't start until fourth or fifth hour, but it was starting earlier and earlier.
By lunchtime, Madison was flat out ready to skip class. And without a future-seeing aunt around, it would be easy. She planned to make her escape right before the lunch bell, but as soon as she got out of the classroom, strong, pale arms locked themselves around her thin frame and held her there.
"You weren't planning on leaving me were you?"
"I'll see you at home, Christopher," she sighed.
"Aw, you're no fun. I had a question to ask you, too."
"You owe me," she snapped. "You promised me we wouldn't be going to school here."
"Well, I'm sorry if humans are incapable of anything and unreliable," he hissed in her ear, steering her for the lunchroom. "But you're just going to have to be happy with what you have."
He pushed her down into a plastic chair and held his finger up in her face. "Stay," he said severely. She sighed, watching intently as he walked around the table and sat down.
"I have something to tell you, but I wasn't sure if it was best to surprise you…" he trailed off, his face smooth and expressionless.
"Just surprise me," she muttered with a wave of her hand, rubbing her temples with her other hand.
He laughed. "Alright, but you can't hate me for it."
"Sure, sure," she replied.
"I'll be right back, okay? Stay," Christopher said, getting up and leaving the Cafeteria. Once he was on his way back, a timid male critter found his way to Madison's sight, standing right in front of her, blocking her view of Christopher.
"Can I help you?" she asked in a bored tone, hoping he would go away.
"Uh, I was wondering if you had a date for prom yet," he said and Madison remembered his name. Danny.
"Aren't you going with Carlie?" Madison asked.
"Not if you say yes to going with me," he said, hopeful.
"I'm gay." She said and got up from the table, passing Christopher on her way out.
He had apparently followed her. "Can I please just go home?" she asked.
He sighed and handed her the keys to his car. "Come by and pick me up? Kay?"
"Sure." She kissed him good-bye and left.

The next day's events started as soon as she got out of the car. Prom was days away so the male species was getting desperate. Three guys had come up to her so far, and Christopher growled at every one of them. But he did laugh hard at the two girls that asked her.
Madison sighed heavily and flipped open her textbook, committing every word to memory. Midterms were a week away and she didn't have anything better to do.
"Madison," a voice sang.
"Oh Lord…what?"
"Come on, cheer up! Prom is coming! Prom is coming!" She laughed excitedly.
"The British are coming! The British are coming!" she mocked. "Geez, don't you ever run out of energy?"
"No," she responded honestly. "Oh yeah! Did you spot the new students this morning? The male is gorgeous!" she gushed.
Madison perked up. "What?" she asked flatly, then held up a hand quickly, vampire speed that scared Carlie. "Never mind, don't tell me a thing."
She glared at the door.
And sure enough, when the teacher walked in, behind him walked in two familiar faces.
"Oh, no he didn't," Madison snarled quietly, and the two 'new' students' heads snapped to hers.

Guess—who is it? You'll never guess. Aha. I know who you'll guess. I have Alice –pets pixie like girl sitting next to her- you think that it's going to be the two that I'm assuming you're going to say, but that's what you want me to think so you're going with the other two and that's what I want you to think, and you know that so you're going to go with the two that you know I think that you're not going to pick but really, you are. Wait…damn…I think I just confused myself…I'm not sure if I did or not…
