May's POV

OMG, it's the first day of school! I'm so excited!
Me and my best friends, Misty, Dawn, and Leaf are going to this exclusive academy that only a selected few are chosen to go. It's the best campus among all the regions! We had to undergo sports, music, academic, and art tests. They were all pretty easy, and we basically aced them, so we naturally got in. We even get to live in our own house on campus!

I also heard that we're provided with free lunches at any restaurants on campus! I mean, that's pretty amazing !

Humph. This will show Drew what I'm really made of. I mean, I got into the best school there is!

"MAY, COME ON!" Misty shouted. "WE'RE GONNA BE LATE ON THE FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL!"
"Okay! I'm coming!" I shouted back.

I jogged to over to Misty. I was wearing short red shorts and a white tank with a black cardigan. I had my hair with my signature doggy ears, a bandana, and black converse.

Misty was wearing an aqua shirt with white shorts. She had her hair in a sideways ponytail with a white headband, and was sporting white keds. We hopped into Leaf's car, all ready to go. The van with all of our stuff had already left.

Leaf was wearing a light lace green dress with a brown belt. She had her hair in two braids with a white flower clipped on, and had white wedges.

"Maayy, what took you so long?" Dawn asked.
Dawn was wearing a loose yellowy orange tank top and short white shorts and yellow flip flops. She had her in a high ponytail with a white bow tied on it.
"Sorry, I forgot to bring this!" I held up my cookie.
My friends all groaned. "May, there's probably gonna be food there" Leaf said.
"I know, but what if I got hungry on the way there?" I questioned.
Dawn smacked her forehead. "It's like, 10 minutes away"
"That's A LOT!" I protested.

"Oh May, whatever are we gonna do with you?" Misty sighed.
I pouted. My friends started to laugh at me.
"Come on guys, let's go! We're gonna be late!" I said, trying to change the subject.
Leaf looked at the clock. "SHIT! We only have an hour!" and with that she started the car and we drove off.

After about 9 minutes, we arrived. When we stepped out of the car, our jaws dropped. The academy was HUUGE. It looked like a mini city. It had HUGE houses lined up along the sides and supermarkets, cafes, high buildings and the school was in the middle. We saw a couple students walking around and they saw us. They started to whisper amongst each other.

One group caught our eye. It consisted of 3 girls. They were especially glaring at us. One had reddish hair, one had pink hair, and the other one had brownish hair. I shrugged it off.

Just then a woman rushed out. She had blonde hair and was wearing all black.
"Hello there girls! You must be the new students! Welcome! I'm Cynthia, the headmaster here."

Dawn smiled at her. "Hello! My name is Dawn!"
The rest of us introduced ourselves.
"Oh, come right this way please. One of the drivers will take your car to your new home and the van is already there." She beamed at us.

"Wow. This place is really nice." I said.
"It sure is! And you'll see it gets better!" Cynthia said.

We followed Cynthia to the main room of the school. She told us to sit.
"Now, you four girls did exceptionally well on the test. Almost the same scores as another group of students that are arriving today as well."
We beamed at her praise.
"Now you girls, let me tell you about life on the campus." She handed each of us a student handbook.
"You must attend class the whole week except for Friday, and the weekend. Because this is an exclusive academy, this is one of the most luxurious places you will stay at. It's basically a small city!"

I laughed. "That's exactly what we thought!"
Cynthia nodded. "The council thought it would be much better to have houses rather than dorms."
We nodded in agreement.
"Now, if you didn't notice, there are close actual cities nearby. You're allowed to go there but if you cause any trouble, reports will be sent to the school, which could result in severe consequences."

"Well, I don't want to bore you with any other information. Your schedules will be sent to your home, and the rest of the information is stored away in the student handbook. If you have any other questions, you are free to ask me."

"Thank you!" We all chirped.
She smiled at us. "Now to tell you where your new home is."
YAY!
"Barry, please bring in these ladies' house number and keys." Cynthia said on an intercom.
"Barry…?" Dawn whispered
"Barry is my assistant. I hired him and because of this, he doesn't have to attend class most of the time. He's only here when I need him."
We nodded in understanding.

The door opened and an extremely CUTE and tall guy walked in. He was blonde and was wearing an orange shirt with jean shorts a little bit lower than his knees, showing off his toned legs.

"Here you go, headmaster." Barry said handing her a sheet of paper and a set of keys.
He looked at us. When he saw Dawn, he gasped.
"DAWN!?"
"BARRY!"
We raised eyebrows at her. "You know each other?" Cynthia asked.
"We've known each other since we were little. We're like best friends!" Dawn said.
"Yeah, BEST friends." Barry smirked.
Dawn smacked him. "Shut up."

Cynthia smirked at them. "Take your flirting somewhere else, kids."
Dawn and Barry dropped their jaws and turned bright red. "HEADMASTERR"
Cynthia laughed. "Okay, let's see what house you have. She looked at the sheet."
Her eyebrows scrunched together.

"Headmaster, is there something wrong?" Barry asked.
"Barry, are you sure that this is the correct paper?"
"Of course. I just printed it out."
"Oh dear."
"Headmaster, what's wrong?" Leaf asked.
"Girls, I'm so sorry. But you will be living in the mansion."
"REALLY!? Isn't that good!?" We shouted.
"Maybe…"Cynthia muttered. "But…you'll be rooming with people."
We looked at each other. "Well….I guess it's not that bad. Considering it's a MANSION. We wouldn't mind sharing it with another group of girls.." Misty said.

"That's the problem. You're NOT rooming with girls."
There was an awkward silence.
"Wait, what.?" Leaf broke the silence.
Cynthia let out a long sigh. "I'm really sorry girls, but you'll be rooming with another group of BOYS."
"Can't we just ask another group to switch?" Misty asked.

"I really wish I could girls, but all the applicants were placed before you and the other group. We went past the number of students we were supposed to have, but since you and the other group of boys placed so high in the test rankings, we couldn't just not let you in. That's why we built the mansion. But it slipped out of our minds that the groups were male AND female. If we called out the other applicants at the last minute, it would get messy." Cynthia explained.

"Well, I guess then we're stuck with them." Dawn sighed.
"I'm really sorry, girls." Cynthia said again.
"It's really fine Headmaster. We can just establish some ground rules and stick to one side of the mansion." Misty said.
"How long do we have to stay with them?" Leaf asked.
"I'll have to discuss that with the council." Cynthia said.
"Okay, who are the boys?" I asked.
"I'm not sure. They haven't arrived yet. Barry can show you to your new home. Remember, girls, if you any problems with the boys and your rooming, please come talk to me." Cynthia said.

We all nodded.
Hopefully the boys aren't douches like last time.
I bit my lip.

"Come on girls. Let's go!" Barry said.
We followed him out of the school. We hopped on a mini car, kind of like a golf cart and we drove off.

Barry and Dawn sat next to each other and me and the girls sat in the back.
We were analyzing the campus. It was so PRETTY!

"It's so pretty here!" Dawn said, almost as if she was reading my mind.
We agreed with her.
"So Dawn, you've gotten A LOT prettier. What happened?" Barry teased.
"BARRY. SHUT UP."
"Hey, you girls are the ones from the picture Dawn sent me, right?"
We looked at her with questioning eyes. She looked at us sheepishly. "Barry asked me to send him pictures and stuff."
"What picture did you send him?" I asked.
Barry held up his phone. "This one."

We all grimaced. It was in front of Dawn's house. Misty was really chubby, Leaf had acne all over her face, Dawn had glasses and short, awkward hair, and I was stick skinny, no muscles, no fat, not anything.
"You girls sure have gotten A LOT prettier. And HOTTER" Barry said.
We blushed bright red. "Uh…Thanks." We said.
He laughed. "Don't sweat it. And you girls were kinda cute back then too."
"REALLY!?" We looked at him incredulous eyes.
"Seriously. I mean, I always thought Dawn was pretty." He winked.
"Wow, no one ever said that about us back then." I muttered.

"Really!? Well, it's the truth. I'm not saying all this stuff to get girls or anything." He said defensively.
Dawn laughed. "We know Barry."
He let out a sigh of relief. "Oh, thank god. I didn't want to be labeled as a player on the first day I met you guys."
We all laughed.
He's so sweet. DREW was never this sweet. I'm glad I left.

"Well, we're here." Barry said.
We gasped. THE MANSION WAS HUGE.

"Wow." Was all I could make out.

Barry chuckled at my response. "Wow is right. You guys are the first to stay here too, so it's basically brand new!"
Dawn started to jump up and down, squealing. "Is there a pool? Is there a tennis court? Is there a spa? Is there a hot tub? Is there a big kitchen? Are there a lot of bedrooms? Is there a walk in closet?"
Barry laughed at her questions. "Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes and yes." He said, counting off on his fingers.

Just then, his cellphone rang. He looked at it.
"Oh, Cynthia wants me to come back. Apparently your new roommates are here. They'll probably be here soon. Well, if you girls need me, I live next door and Dawn has my number. Bye!"

"BYE!" We said back.
"Barry lives next door?" We looked at the house next to us.
It was another mansion, just like ours. "I guess he gets a house like ours because he's Cynthia's helper and all that stuff." Misty said.
"Come on, LET'S GO IN!" I shouted.
The girls giggled and they ran in with me. Our suitcases and belongings were all stacked in the main lobby place. We grabbed our things and rode the mansion elevator upstairs.

There were two halls. We went towards one hall. There were four rooms and a bathroom. We each picked a room and threw our stuff in there and raced back downstairs.
"Come on guys! Let's see the kitchen!" I shouted.
"Typical May" Misty smirked.
"I HEARD THAT!" I shouted.

Just as were about to go to the kitchen, we heard a familiar boy's voice along with others.
"Well this is your new home, and if you have any questions you can ask Cynthia."
"Yeah, yeah Blondie. Cynthia told us about our roommates and that they're girls. What are they like?"
Another voice joined in. "Are they hot?"
"Can we hurry up to the kitchen? I'm hungry." A different voice said.
"Shut up." A gruff voice said.
The familiar voice, according to Dawn, was Barry's, said "Well, they're SUPER hot but if you touch the blunette I'll fine you big time, and the kitchen doesn't even have food so you're gonna have to go to the supermarket to buy some."

Dawn blushed after she heard what Barry said and the girls squealed. "AWW, Barry must care for you a lot!" Leaf whispered.
Then something hit me. "THEY DON'T HAVE FOOD HERE!" I cried.
"May, shut up. I'm trying to hear what they're saying." Misty said.

"Blunette?" The gruff voice said.
"Yeah, why?" Barry said
"Nothing. You can go now." The voice said.
"Pushy, much?" Barry mumbled. "Well, tell the girls I said Hi." And the girls heard Barry leaving in his car.

"Guys, come on. Let's see what these girls are like." A voice said.
"Do you EVER stop trying to get girls?" The gruff voice said.
The girls heard the footsteps grow closer.

"I wonder what they're like." I wondered.
"Well, obviously one of them is a player." Leaf said.
"Yeah. Let's just hope they're not like them." Dawn said.
We nodded in agreement.

The door opened and four boys stepped in. The first boy had spiked brown hair and he was wearing a black shirt with jeans. The second boy had raven black hair and a blue shirt with white shorts. The third boy had lavender hair with a dark purple shirt and dark jeans and the fourth boy had green hair and a green shirt with khakis.

Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god. It's….It's them…..

The jerks that broke our hearts. Gary. Ash. Paul. And…Drew.
