Truro School

Truro School

This is kind of set as a x-over in the period between the end of Soapy Liedown's story "year 10" and her sequel "college" as part of the official Fanfic war between Soapy and I! Please R & R but anyone from our form at school might notice some similarities! X-over's include Robin hood, Alex Rider books, OC and many, many more!

Robins alarm woke him up at 6:30, same as it had done for the past six months since his parents had forced him to move to Truro High School, which had recently started accepting boys as well as girls. He rolled over and grumpily got out of bed. He wished that he was back in Nottingham with Marian, even though he had a large group of new friends here in Cornwall. He couldn't help thinking about her, the way she used to smile and blush every time he saw her, their first date, that last exchange between them……

He sighed and pulled on his awful green and brown school uniform, pulled a comb through his messy hair and ran downstairs to grab some toast before catching the bus from near his house to school. On his way up the hill he had to knock on the door of one of his new best friends, Julia. She was heavily laden with bags, as usual; she had to carry her clarinet, her PE kit and her lace bag.

"Why do you have so much stuff!" he laughed when she appeared outside, "you'll never be able to carry all that up the hill!"

"What ever Robin!" she laughed and playfully hit him with her PE kit, "just you watch me!"

"Do you want a hand with them Julia!" laughed Carter, another friend who lived the other side of Julia, "you're going to fall over one of these days!"

Julia shot them both an evil look but allowed them to help her anyway, in the end she was carrying less than the two boys. As they arrived at the bus stop they met Abigail, Issy and Katie, who were also in their form. Julia was the only one who wasn't out of breath so was laughing at the other two boys. Issy was slightly busy making out with her new boyfriend Jimmy, so the other five chatted about Katie's gorgeous new haircut, how much she'd grown recently and how amazing she looked.

"Hey Issy!" called Julia loudly, "have you told Lily about you and Jimmy yet?"

This caused Issy to turn bright red and mumble something about not wanting to open old wounds.

"Wow! Chill Julia! You're so hyper this morning!" laughed Robin.

Julia smiled her big smile that had caused even the scary music teacher Mr Nyets to be happy and just ran off to talk to Fran who was sitting on the bench. Carter laughed and watched her go longingly.

"Hey Katie!" said Alex Rider, coming over, "wow you look nice!"

Abigail and Robin just exchanged glances; they decided it was better to give Katie and Alex some space so wandered off to talk to some others.

"So, Katie….. I was wondering if you were doing anything this Saturday and might like to go to see a movie with me?" the tall, blonde boy asked.

"Yeah, sure that would be great!" answered Katie.

"I'll meet you outside the cinema at about 2?"

"Great!" said Katie, almost jumping for joy, one of the hottest boys in school had just asked her out!

With that he smiled at her and wandered off to talk to his friend Ryan, who lived in California but was over here for a couple of years.

When they reached Truro everyone went inside to catch up on any gossip that they might have missed during the 18 hours or so they had been apart, except for Robin, he just stood outside like he did everyday, imagining that it was Nottingham and the people weren't Julia, Katie, Abigail, Fran and Carter but his old friends, Will, Djaq, Much, Allan, Paula, Dean, John, and of course, Marian. He missed them everyday, he liked the people here but it didn't ease the pain that he still felt every time he thought of Marian and the feel of her smooth lips on his. Julia was standing behind him as he was absorbed in his thoughts.

"Marian?" she asked softly.

Robin nodded slowly, when he first became friends with Julia he had told her all about Marian and how much she meant to him. He was glad that all of the girls he was now friends with knew that and respected it, he didn't know how anyone could bear living without the girl they loved but at least having someone to laugh and joke with made it a little better. He took a deep breath and walked inside, it was time for another day.

Hope you like it! Sorry first chapter was so short! Next will be longer I promise!
