So, I'm going to try and challenge myself to write this using song titles for chapter names. After every chapter, I will put down why I chose that particular song for the title. Oh, and I'm starting a bit weird. You will se what I mean. Just a bit of background: Someone has just called out to the main character.
I looked across the hall to the source of the voice. Toka stood next to her brother, Shiho. Down the hall, Kiki sat on the floor fiddling with her flip folder.
"What room are you in?" Toka repeated.
"215." I replied, gesturing toward the door I was standing in front of. Toka's face fell.
"I don't know who else is in there. I'm in room 200 with Trisha. Kiki is with Adri in 204 and Shiho is with Ash downstairs in 123." She sighed.
"I don't know either. Mrs. Acoshai said it was some girl named Iana. I'm guessing it is a freshman, but I'm not sure." I sighed as well. At least the triplets were rooming with friends. I was stuck with a freshman girl I had never met before. "I'm going to go put my stuff in my room." I slid the key into the lock and went inside, closing the door behind me.
The room was painted a light blue with pale blue curtains and trimmings. The comforters were just a bit darker then the curtains, with polka dots colored different shades of blue, and white sheets. The comforter matched the pillows. A desk sat in one corner, and in the other corner a light pine wardrobe with blue trimmings sat slightly open.
Even more mind numbing was what sat on one of the beds. It had bright ginger hair down to its mid-back. It wore a short-sleeved green hoody and dark denim Bermuda shorts. It sat cross-legged on the bed. Right away, I could tell it wasn't a freshman. In fact, it looked more my age.
"I hope you don't mind that I already chose a bed." It spoke? Its face grew red as I sat blinking at it, hoping it would disappear when I reopened my eyes.
It wouldn't go away.
"I'm Iana, a junior." It attempted to introduce itself. I blinked again. Junior? I turned away, trying to pretend it wasn't there, didn't exist. I placed my bag on the opposite bed, my back turned to the thing on the other bed.
A knock on the door. A voice called from outside "drum majors need to meet with Mrs. Acoshai in the band room" then light footsteps faded out before the voice appeared again, fainter, as if farther down the hall. I knew the voice was the only male drum major, Justin, and that the second door he stopped at was Toka's.
"Does he knock on everyone's door?" It asked. I could feel its green eyes burning into my back. "Did I do something wrong?" I ignored it. She would find out. Eventually.
I opened the door and left, almost hitting Toka. She took one glance at me before she realized what was going on. I closed the door behind me and lead the way to the band room.
Eep, a bit short. If this one is short, the next one will likely be shorter, and I know chapter 3 will be shorter. I'll have to try and fix that.
Who is Iana? Why won't Rini talk to her? Think you have a guess? Will, tell me in a review! If you don't have a guess, review anyway!

Real Gone: In this song, in I think it is the second verse it talks about "a new kid in town". Well, Iana is the new kid in the school, so I thought it fit. And the way Rini is treating her, it also kind of fits with the song.
