I'm back on fanfiction! YAY! all thanks to my friend abby :)

Disclaimer: I don't own Horton Hears a Who or the characters.

[if I did, I'd be in the movie as a Who :) ]

Laura Cora Morra was walking in the sunny streets of Whoville, tapping a rhythm on her side with her fingers. She was a short Who, with black and teal striped fur, hazel eyes, and long brown hair. She lived in Whoville all her life, and her only friend was music. She was too shy to talk to other people, and she kept to herself often. A month ago, there was lots of commotion and shouting "We are here!" as a chant that got louder and louder.

But one boy- the mayor's son, his voice saved us from being destroyed by some kangaroo. He kept to himself, and worked a lot in the old abandoned observatory. That day, one moth ago, he unveiled the observatory, revealing many instruments and loud noises. That extra noise made us heard and we were saved.

The mayor's son was VERY short and quiet. Jojo had black hair, black and grey striped fur, and no one knew the color of his eyes, because no one was that close to him. No one was his friend. He didn't talk much in school, and I never talked to him. I decided to talk to him come Monday. We had a few classes together for sure.

o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o

Monday.

As the bell rang starting Algebra class, I stayed by the wall, listening to music, and waiting for Jojo.

When he walked through the door, I looked at him for a while, hoping he'd look up at me. When he did, I gave him a small wave and he motioned for we to sit next to him. There was a note on the desk:

-hello- it read

I wrote back -hi jojo- and passed it to him

He took it. -laura right?-

-how do you know that-

-you're the only girl with teal and black fur. it looks cool-

I turned to him and said "Thanks,"

He simply nodded in reply.

At lunch, he sat by himself at the table in the corner. I sat across for him.

"Hi Jojo," I said, beginning to eat my sandwich.

"Laura?" he replied.

"Yes?"

"Why are you sitting with me?"

"Why not?" I smiled.

He returned the smile and began to eat.

We didn't talk for the rest of lunch, and we didn't need to. The silence was nice.

Lemme know what your thoughts are and I will update in a little while :)

SNEAK PEAK FOR NEXT CHAPTER: Jojo and Laura hang out in the observatory together :)
