"Hey beck! Welcome back." A perky redhead came zooming towards the 14 year old boy standing by his clear locker. It was the first day back at Hollywood Arts high school for everyone. For Cat Valentine school was the perfect way to end a summer. She love seeing all her friends and teachers. Cat ran through the halls and pulled Beck into a hug. She had only seen beck a few days ago, but the way she was hugging him was as if it had been years. That's when a tall skinny girl with blonde flowing air came round the corner. Marrisa Carlton. She was one of the most popular girls in school. She was also dating the guy being suffocated by cat.

"Well this is cosy!" she indicated for cat to release beck. Cat didn't get the message. It took beck to pull away from the redhead for her to control herself. He headed over to Marissa and put his arm around her. He put his lips close to hers but she pulled away. Marissa had a thing about waiting until Valentine's Day for their first kiss. It would be so romantic. Beck thought it was so sappy. However he would never say that unless he had the wish of a slap. The situation was getting awkward. Marissa didn't trust cat after the day she found Cat feeding beck salad all alone. Obviously nothing had happened but Marissa didn't trust her. She was very cautious.

Just then two boys joined them. One was a dark skinned boy with dreadlocks; the other had geeky glasses and an afro. He also carried a puppet that looked like him besides the glasses. They were arguing about god knows what. "I'm telling you André its called fur!" Robbie yelled. The others looked at him curiously. Cat giggled to herself.

"It's called hair. Do you hear anyone say the fur on the coconut...NO?" Andre was in full scale argue mode. The others were still puzzled. Robbie went to open his mouth but was interrupted by Marissa.

"Who cares?" Robbie looked at the floor ashamed. Beck looked at Marissa. They all knew how Robbie was sensitive. Marissa was mean to beck's friends. She was mainly jealous of the attention he gave them. But she didn't care about what beck thought. She just removed his arm from her shoulder. "I have to go and do that...thing...With that teacher..." Marissa awkwardly walked off .giving beck about five seconds to stare at her before she was gone. Cat attempted to comfort Robbie. But it was no use. Marissa had a way of getting to him. Possibly the fact that she looked down on him. She looked down on everyone. Even Beck, but he didn't really care. He didn't care about what anyone thought of him.

The gang stood for a while until cat broke the silence. "One time my brother thought he was growing fur, but it turns out he just stuck dog hair on his body." Cat was puzzled as confused glances were thrown her way. She had told many stories about her wacko brother. However the only time they had met him was at the Christmas concert. When he decided to dive headfirst into the Christmas tree. It wasn't pretty.

Beck threw his remaining books into his locker and sighed. It was back to school. He read his timetable.

Period 1: Improv Class- Erwin Sikowitz.

Great! Improv was one of the only classes which he enjoyed. Beck loved acting and was very good at it. He dreamed of being an actor. However he also loved this class because it was one of the only classes which didn't involve his girlfriend Marissa. He loved her but she was very judgemental. Not to mention she turned in to the green eyed monster when he looked at another girl.

The others looked over their timetables. To becks surprise they all had the same lesson first. Cat squealed as she jumped continuously up and down. It took André and beck to grab her arm to stop her from bouncing. Rex, Robbie's puppet laughed to himself. "You would've thought she just got her first date with a guy!" He spat at her. Cat was distraught she began to panic and grabbed Andres shirt. He stroked her back and walked her to Sikowitz's class. Beck, Robbie and Rex were left behind.

"I'm going to follow André see if he's okay." Beck laughed and walked off. Robbie was left alone. That's when the sound of a car door slamming was bounced off the walls. Robbie jumped and slammed his face into a locker. Unfortunately for him the locker was shut. Rex laughed at his guardian's torture as Robbie fixed his glasses.

Suddenly the hall doors where kicked open. A pale skinned girl was stood drenched head to toe in water. Her soaking wet hair had blue highlights and seemed to be its natural shade of brown. She wore almost all black and has the makeup to match. Robbie just stared at the beauty. That's when her eyes locked on him. She began to walk towards him. Her feet squelched with water. "ARE YOU BEHIND THIS?" She spat at the boy. It seemed as if the seniors had played a little joke on the new girl. She was definitely new. Robbie had never seen her before. His voice stammered and stuttered.

"I thought you were supposed to shower before school not during!" Rex joked. Robbie tried to cover his puppets mouth. It was too late. The girl marched towards Robbie and glared. She then grabbed her hair and squeezed it over Robbie's. He let out a high pitch noise as the cold water ran down his back. The Goth girl then shook her head at his face. "Some bodies cranky!" Rex joked once more. This time the girl decided it was personal. She took Rex's head and ripped it from his neck.

"Watch yourself puppet boy!" She left Robbie standing alone as she headed for the girls bathroom. Robbie ran to get Rex's head.

"Not again. Rex are you okay." Robbie made a quick rush to his class before the bell went.

Well the first day was going great for him so far!
