Uhhh, so this is a new fanfic of mine!
Not really sure where this is going to go, but if I get enough reviews, I will carry on!
I do not own night world, but neither do you so, ha!
Rashel POV
I winced slightly as someone next to me slammed their locker door. I still had a killer headache. I knew I shouldn't have had that 4th vodka shot with Morgead and Jez. I walked over to where my friends Keller was standing and gave her a painful smile.
"Still hung over?" She asked me.
"Please. I am permanently hung over." I answered while glaring at another kid who slammed their locker with way too much noise for my liking. He shrunk back and hurried off to his next class. Keller and I walked to Science, which was, luckily for me, on the top floor of the opposite building. As we trudged up the stairs, I asked casually, "So, where's Quinn today? I didn't see him in English."
Keller just gave me a knowing look and said "Just because we are neighbours, doesn't mean I know where he is all the time. Anyway, aren't you supposed to know where he is? You are his girlfriend."
"Oh, I didn't speak to him this morning so I was just wondering if he is here today or not." I said. Maybe that wasn't casually enough… He is probably just out with Ash or something. We walked into class and saw someone sitting in our usual seats. Obviously she was new otherwise no one would sit in our seats, the popular ones. Clearly, she was pretty too as everyone around her seemed to be boys with a few girls sitting next to her, making jokes and laughing. Keller and I exchanged a glance before walking up to her and tapping her on the shoulder. She turned around and smiled.
"Excuse me, but you are in our seats." I said with the frostiest voice I could manage at the moment, hung over as I was.
"Oh, sorry! I'll move right now. I'm Hannah." she said. She packed up her things and moved a few to the left, bringing her entourage with her.
"I am Rashel, and this is Keller." I decided to humour her, as she might actually be nice if all these people liked her. My attention was diverted; Quinn had just walked in the room. I left Keller to chat to the new girl while I approached Quinn. "Where have you been?" I asked him as we exchanged the usual hug and kiss greeting. I tried to pitch my tone between unbothered and slightly concerned, as I wasn't sure about our relationship yet and didn't want to come off as too needy or whiny.
"Out with Ash. We ditched 3rd because we didn't do our homework." Quinn said with a sheepish grin. I rolled my eyes. He looked around as if to see where everyone else had gone. I saw a shock go through him and I turned around to see what may have cause this. He was staring at Hannah. I turned back to him, my expression slightly hurt.
"Love? Are you okay?" He asked me. I studied him closely while he was talking. He seemed to be normal at the moment.
"Yeah. Fine." I smiled for good measure before I took his hand and led him over to our seats while feeling the usual shocks his touch gave me. He smiled back and I knew he was feeling the same thing. Everyone was seated now and the teacher started to write something on the blackboard. I automatically tuned out.
What was with that weird shock with Quinn? It was almost like he subconsciously recognized her from somewhere. If I wasn't standing right in front of him, I am certain he would walked over to her and started flirting ridiculously like the rest of them.
No Rashel! You need to have faith in him! Just because he being your boyfriend is new, he himself isn't. I have known him for all my life and we have always been best friends, even through the different girls and boys we had gone out with. Finally, we realised that we were perfect for each other, and that was when the sparks had started for both of us.
A note dropped onto my table. I turned around and I saw Keller making little hand gestures meant to say Read it now! I sighed and unfolded the lined paper. There in Keller's messy scrawl was
Are you okay? You look a bit sick.
Yes, of course I am. Why wouldn't I be?
I am your best friend Rashel. I know when you're upset. Tell me after school. My house?
Yeah, sure. I folded the note and stuffed it in my bag. I looked at the clock; only five minutes left. The hour had gone very quickly. I tried to concentrate for the last five minutes of the day, but I was simply too tired. Mercifully, the bell rang, but then that just added to my headache. I put all my books into my bag and waited to be dismissed.
"Ah, Rashel and Quinn. Can I talk to you for a quick minute?" My teacher said over the noise that was developing. I nodded, confused. Maybe he saw me and Keller passing notes to each other… but then why would he want Quinn too?
"Yes, Mr Burton?" I said.
"Well, I know this is a lot to ask of you two, but I know that you are very popular among your classmates. Could you show Hannah around for the next few days, maybe sit with her at lunch, that type of thing? It's just; I would not want her to feel left out." He asked.
"Of course, we would be happy to, sir." Quinn said. We both smiled at him and walked out to where Keller, Jez, Morgead and Ash were waiting for us. We started walking with them, but I trailed behind, lost in my own thoughts. What was I supposed to tell Keller? The truth? No, she would just tell me I was being paranoid…
On the way to the car park, we saw Hannah surrounded by boys and the odd girlfriend of the boys, trying to be noticed. She waved to us and I saw Keller and everyone else smile at her. Keller and Jez wandered over while I stayed with Morgead and Quinn. Quinn had a wistful look in his eyes, and I did not like it. After a while, Quinn left and it was just me and Morgead standing there.
"Hey. You alright?" Morgead asked me. We were fairly close, but not as close as me and Keller were.
"Yeah. You?" I asked casually.
"I meant coz your boyfriend just ditched you for some girl that is practically perfect and already popular as hell." Morgead said in a deadpan voice.
"Thanks. Well, I'm fine." I answered. Finding that this was one conversation that I did not need, I walked over to where Keller was standing chatting and laughing and said "Hey. Can we go; I have the worst headache."
"Yeah, sure. Can Hannah come back to mine? We were all going to welcome her into the neighbourhood; it turns out she lives opposite me and Quinn." Keller asked.
"Uh, yeah. It is your house." I said in a forced cheerful tone. I would not let this girl intimidate me out of my gang. "I'll see you there!"
I went to my car and was surprised to see Jez standing there. "Are you not getting a ride with Morgead on his motorcycle?" I asked.
Jez said, "Naw. I need to talk to you."
So, is it amazing? Horrible? Hideous?
Whatever it is,
Pleeeeease review.
Love you!
