Moon stood at the entrance of Jade valley High school.
Oh great! she thought Nothing to cheer a girl up like a high school full of boring classes and mean people. She put on her headphones and played her music. She walked through the door to find Starlight handing out pamphlets to entering students. He was the librarian at the school. Moon took one and walked to her locker. The good news was that it was right next to her homeroom, so it wouldn't be hard to get her stuff before class started. Her line of teachers was not as good as she had hoped: The only good teachers she got was Social Studies with Mr. Webs, and P.E. with Mr. Deathbringer. Just as Can't Stop the Feeling blasted through her beats, she heard a large group of students walking through the hall in her general direction. She turned her head to see Kinkajou and Qibli walking to her.
She paused her music and took off her headphones. "Hey guys!"
"Moon! Isn't this place great!" Kinkajou walked over and hugged her. "Oh my gosh! Our lockers are next to each other!" She was right. Moon had 157 and Kinkajou had 158.
Qibla walked over and waved. "My lockers over there somewhere." He looked at his watch "OH CRAP! Ill see you guys later, I promised Turtle that I would help him with his stuff when he got here." He walked away and shot Moon a shy smile. He always looked like Naruto when he put on that sheepish grin.
"That didn't last long," said Moon "Hey, what homeroom did you get? I gotSocial Studies with Mr. Webs."
"Well, on this topic I have good news and bad news. The bad news is that I got P.E. as mine, and so did Qibli, but Turtle told me he got it. And as a bonus, so did a certain someone who seems to like you." She raised her eyebrows a couple of times.
"Oh crap, this is gonna be a strange first year," said Moon "But do you think I'm even sitting close to him?" The him they were both referring to was Winter Frost. He came to their school the same year Qibli did, 7th grade. Although he probably didn't know, the entire grade knew that he liked Moon. The problem for him was he was REALLY REALLY bad at talking to girls. The only contact they regularly established is 'hey', 'hi', or the more common one 'can I borrow a pencil?'. Moon didn't reject these feelings though, because it was hard to admit that Winter wasn't hot. Half the girls in the grade liked him, and the other half were jealous of Moon for being his sweetheart. Moon recalled the february of 8th grade when Winter and Moon were in the same math class. Kinkajou was with them as well. The next day was valentines day, but Moon had gotten sick, so she didn't go to school. While Kinkajou was emailing Moon her homework, she also told her that Winter had come into class with a high smile (Which was rare) and a bag of stuff. But when class started and Moon wasn't there, he became SUPER depressed.
Right before they could continue the conversation, the 3 minute warning sounded over the PA system. They shut their lockers and both rushed to class.
Moon arrived to Mr. Webs classroom to see him waiting at the door greeting students. He turned to see her and smiled.
"Ah Moon, you made it. Tsunami told me that a memory prodigy was going to be my student. Your seat is marked, so you know where to go. I look forward to seeing what you can do." he said.
She shot him a shy smile and walked in. Her desk was near the front, and thankfully, she was sitting next to her friend Turtle. He saw her coming and waved.
"Hey Turtle!" She said, then sat down and whispered: "Winter's not here yet right?"
He laughed. "Moon, None of the girls in the class are rushing out of their seats, so thats probably a yes," He turned around to see if anyone else he knew was here, and saw Winter walking in. Moon saw him to. "I stand corrected."
"No!" Moon said "You sit corrected." They both broke out laughing. Moon noticed that Winter wasn't actually looking at her, but he had his nose in a book. His seat was 2 rows behind Turtle. Then Moon realized that it wasn't a book, but some sort of journal. He was copying things out of his class book, maybe in case he forgot it.
Mr. Webs shut the door and walked to the board, where he had some things written down. "Hello everyone!" They all looked at him. "For those of you who don't know who I am, my name is Mr. Webs, but you can just call me Webs. This year I am going to be teaching you about..." He started droning on about things in the towns history and the history of its people. Moon started taking notes in her journal about the separate topics, and writing down things she already knew about them. For the rest of the class, they mostly got to know each of the other students, and got the weeks assignment.
After class was over Moon walked to her locker and got the stuff she needed for next period. As she was walking away Winter stepped in front of her.
"Hey Moon," He said. "I need to talk to you."
"Okay?" she said.
"I know that everyone knows about it, so I want to be clear. Lets just act like none of it happened, and maybe just be regular friends?" He sounded like he was going to kill himself.
"Ism, okay. Lets actually try this. But if this means we will be regular friends for a while," She pecked him on the cheek. He blushed. "Bye!" she waved and walked away.
Winter stood their dumbstruck and rubbed the lipstick stain on his cheek.
"Damn." he said.
