Our Freshmen Year
A/N: Set during season eight. Will be a fiveshot. How Alli/KC became friends. How Connor/Clare became friends, How Clare/Alli became friends. How KC/Connor became friends, and how Connor/Alli became friends. I'm writing this because, despite the fact that in season eight, these four became the best of friends, we never really got to see how it happened. We know that Kalli were friends first but, how did they meet? What about Connor/Clare, KC/Connor, Calli, and Connor/Alli? This is my answer to that.
Summary: A look into how Alli and KC became friends.
KC Guthrie ran a nervous hand through his hair, messing it up more than it already was. This was just fantastic. His first day at this school, and he was already going to make a bad impression. He was too busy looking at his schedule, trying to find out where the Media Immersion room was located that he ran right into someone. They both fell to the ground, scattering books, papers, pencils and pens all around the floor. "Shit!" He hissed under his breath, sitting on his knees and reaching for his things. "I'm really sorry about that." He finally looked up to look at the person that he'd ran into only to see a tiny little, dark haired, dark eyed girl dressed in tight jeans and a pink shirt, picking up her things as well and putting them in a neat pile beside her.
She threw back her long, silky black hair and gave him a small smile. "It's alright." She told him with a shrug of her slender shoulders. "Why were you in such a hurry anyway?" She asked of him as he stood and then reached a hand down to help her up.
He shook his head, nerves getting to him once again. He really did want to make a good impression on the teachers here. He didn't want word to get back to his probation officer that he'd done something wrong and have to be forced into a different foster home and a different school, once again. He was growing tired of it. "I can't find my class and I really don't want to be late."
"Well what class do you have?" She asked of him, taking his schedule from him, taking note of the name before she looked up and said, "You're in my class KC. I can help you find the room. I'm Alli Bhandari by the way." She said, bending to pick up her fashion magazine before she smiles at him once again, wrapping a small, firm hand around his arm and tugging him along.
"Thanks." KC replies with a grateful smile down at her.
"It's no problem. Why weren't you here yesterday though on the first day for everyone else?" Alli questioned.
KC bit his lip, trying to think of something to say. He certainly didn't want to tell her about how he lived in a group home and how despite his good grades, the school board had been reluctant to let him in the school because of his less than perfect past. "I was sick. I wanted to go to school, but wasn't able to. Luckily it was just a twenty-four hour bug." He said finally, lying straight through his teeth.
Alli looked at him suspiciously for a few moments before shrugging and accepting his answer. "Well, I'm glad to see someone normal in the gifted class. Everyone else in it are total losers." She spits out, wrinkling her nose in disgust as she thinks of the girl who committed social suicide by coming to school in a stupid uniform and the boy with the glasses who wouldn't shut up about fireworks, robots, and moths.
KC just laughs and shakes his head as they enter the class and take their seats, thinking this could be the start of an interesting friendship.
