"You got designer shades,
Just to hide your face
And you wear them around like you're cooler than me.
And you never say "Hey"
Or "Remember my name?"
And it's probably 'cause you think you're cooler than me."

Dave's POV

"Dave!" You jolt awake you half sister Rose spray cold water on your face.

"What the hell!" You scream at her, your voice rising an octave. Your name is Dave Strider, in case you didn't know that already. You groan and lie in bed with a pillow over your drenched face. You roll off of your bed and crawl over to your closet. Dude, put your damn shades on! You grab your black jeans and a white shirt with ACDC on it, and you grab your red jacket. You find your black beanie and pull it over your snowy blonde hair. You make your way to you bathroom and brush your teeth, wash your face, and comb through your hair.

"Dave! Come on! We are going to be late! It's the freaking first day back at school!" You don't need to eat. You can wait 'til lunch or something.

"For you," You say. "For me it is my first day out of three hundred and sixty in hell!"

"Come on! It's only our sophomore year I don't want to be late!"

"I'm coming!" You roll your eyes at your older step-sis grab your black and white Converse and head downstairs. She's not that old. Just by a few days but she acts like an adult sometimes.

"Come on." You mock her valley girl/british accent. You walk out the door without her and start walking to school with your longboard in hand. Your board is pretty sweet, all black on the bottom with a picture of a phoenix in red and orange. You stride a few steps and roll your longboard along the pavement shifting your weight side to side to make yourself swerve.

You look behind you to see Rose rolling a few feet away.

"Dave, wait up!"

'Oh no.' You think to yourself.

"Egbert." You mutter bitterly.

"Hey man." John speaks. You roll your eyes at him, even though he can't see, and reply back,

"Hey."

"So, you ready for another school year?" He asks.

"Nope."

"Me neither." You adjust your shades so they sit better on your nose, hiding your eyes. After rolling down a few blocks with Egbert, you check on Rose but don't see her.

'She must've taken the easy route.' You shrug to yourself. When you arrive at the school you look around for Rose and see her talking to a girl with black hair and rounded glasses. Kind of like Egbert's but they look smokin' on her.

"Hey," You start. "Who the fuck is that?"

"Oh, that's my sister, Jade, she just came here over the summer after our grandfather died. She used to live on an island-" You stop listening after that. 'Egbert has a sister? Why didn't he tell me?' You thought. Well of course you know damn well why the little fucker didn't tell you, naturally, but still.

"Damn." You half whisper.

"Oh no. No, no, no, no, no. No. N.O. No way Dave, don't you even think about it." John says firmly.

"What?"

"You make her think you like her then ig-"

"Dude c'mon, have you met me? I wouldn't do that to your little island sis." John makes a face.

"Dude you were doing that in our first year. I don't want you near her that much. No offense man, but you're trouble."

"Don't worry." You put your hands up in surrender. You look back at Jade, and she is walking over here. She waves at Egbert and she gives you a curious look. Your face grows hot. That's unusual. You start pulling at your Muse bracelet. Quit fiddling you little twat! She walks up and hugs Egbert. The wind blows her hair in your direction and you capture her flowery scent. You exhale, dreamily? Dude. What is up with you? 'I don't know!' You think.

She whispers in her brother's ear and he says,

"Jade, this is my friend Dave." He gives you a look of warning. You roll your eyes even though he can't see them. You adjust your shades and extend your hand. She looks strangely familiar. Like a girl you met when you were little. She takes it and smiles, while you keep your straight face, other than a noticeable blush. 'What?!' You think. Embrace it bro. Oh look at that even more noticeable. 'Ah!' Calm down you hopeless idiot. Say something inelegant.

"Uh…" Perfect asshole you're a genius. After a while John cuts in and says,

"Well, Jade, you might want to find your first class. Rose and I have to go or we'll be late."

"Okay. I guess." She says, her voice like a melody. She turns to you.

"Um…" You start and then cough to clear your throat. "You uh… Want me to show you around?"

"Sure." She says shyly. 'Holly shit she's adorable.' You think.

Hello mortals! I hope you like this new story. Hopefully later the chapters shall be longer but for now, they are kind of short. Either way I hope you enjoyed it. I might put the next chapter in Jade's point of view, Im not sure yet... But feel free to leave a comment, flames are excepted.
