Apparently, there are three kids that are doing an exchange program for school. They are coming to Australia in a week and going to the exact same school as I do. According to the teachers these three kids are rockstars.

I got to school Monday and Gappy, my best friend, came up to me. "Do you know who the exchange student people thingys are?" She asked.
"No, do you?" I asked back.
She smiled. "Yup," she came closer to me to whisper "Its the Jonas Brothers."
I dropped my mouth. "No way."
She grinned. "I thought it would make your day."
"My day?" I said, "Make that the entirety of their stay. I get to meet Nick Jonas. I get to meet Nick Jonas." I paused in the middle of my victory dance in realisation. "Hold on. How do you know?"
Her grin got bigger. "I have my moments."
"So, who gets to show them around?" I asked continuing to walk to or formroom.
"That's some bad news," Gappy sighed, "I wasn't the first to know, Jill was and she pulled a few strings and was able to show them around. Sorry, I did try though."
"Damn," I muttered "But thanks for your efforts. They come today though right?"
She nodded a reply. "Oh, and one of them is in our form class."
"Awesome," I smiled "Is it Nick?"
"Yup." She answered, "But that doesn't mean you won't be friends with him or any of them for that matter. Plus, you're much more likeable than that little slut anyway."
The school bell rang and the teacher immediately made her way to the classroom and opened the doors.
We walked through the doorway into our form room. "You shouldn't call people sluts, Gappy."
"Oh well," she said shrugging, "Maybe if she stops acting like one I won't call her one."
I sat down at the row in the back next to Gappy. There was only the one seat that was free and that was the one on the other side of my. I get to sit next to him even if I don't get to hang out with him today.
He walked into the room by then and spoke with the teacher. He smiled to everyone that was looking at him which was pretty much the whole class. Gappy stared out of the window in her own little world.
I hit her and she came back to reality. "Hey, look he's here." She said a bit delayed and pointed to where he was.
"Yeah, I know." I replied.
The teacher directed him to where he would sit and he quietly came to the back of the classroom next to me. I lost my voice.
As soon as the teacher marked the role all the girls in our class - which was the majority - bolted to the back where he was seated. They all started to question him as many questions as they could. Nick sat back looking like the most confused boy I have ever seen.
I looked towards Gappy and she was getting frustrated.
Before anyone knew it she was yelling "Leave him the hell alone. He's a rockstar woop-di-do no body should really care. He's hot so what? Get away from his fucking desk and go back to yours. AND STOP STARING!"
Everyone looked at her like she had just one the lottery and that was including me. But her yelling made the girls cower back to their seats in fear probably. They all continued to stare at him which made Gappy more and more fustrated and angry.
"Thanks," Nick said quietly. He rest his right elbow on the table and looked at us.
"No problem," Gappy returned smiling, "I hate it when everyone just goes over the top when a celebrity comes to school. Even three in this case. You have HPE first since you're in this class, right?"
He pulled out his schedule "Yep, I do." He paused then asked "What is HPE anyway?"
"Health and physical education," I answered, "We have theory one lesson and then Prac the next."
"Oh okay." he said. "Thanks again."
"Ashlee, I'm hungry," Gappy whined.
"I don't have any food to give you." I replied giving a harsh laugh.
"Aw," She pouted, "Nick do you have any food?"
"Yeah, but you'll have to wait until break." Nick answered, chuckling a little.
Even if Gappy says she doesn't like meeting new people when she does because she gets bored of the people she usually hangs out with, she seems more like herself and what she should be like.
"Do you want to sit with us in HPE?" Gappy asked then reconsidered, "Actually that mightn't be a good idea. I usually get people in trouble because I like to socialise in class rather than at break."
"That sounds nice." He replied "But apparently the Jill girl is in our HPE class and I have to sit with her, sorry."
"That little slut," I heard Gappy mutter under her breath. She continued a bit louder, "You know you don't have to sit with her. The principle just said that because she's his daughter and she likes you and hates Ashlee. Also Jill is only showing you around the school its not like you have to be with her evey second of the day."
"Oh," he said frowning a little. "So I really don't have to sit with her. Did you call her a slut?"
Gappy avoided making eye contact with him, "No." and then she caved "Okay, okay I did, I did. But trust me she flirts with all the boys and plays with them it's gross and slut like."
He nodded his head like he understood. "Okay, well, I guess that sounds like a reason to call someone a slut."
"Oh, I have plenty of reasons why I can call someone a slut." Gappy confessed "Like because I'm psyco, I'm mean, I'm cruel, I don't care what people think of me, they deserve to be called something. My list could go on but thats all the basics."
He laughed. His laugh was awesome. "Okay then."
The bell rang to let us know to go to our first class. I headed out and grabbed my stuff and waited patiently for Gappy and Nick to do the same.
I was still unable to find my voice which was surprising since I should really be screaming right about now. In HPE this teacher, Mr. Bennett, was going on about something to do with nutrition and how it would affect us if we didn't keep the nurtients up to the proper average.
Nick sat with us making Jill glare at me, she didn't even give a second glance at Gappy even though it was her doing. Nick and Gappy spoke throughout the class and I popped up in the conversation from time to time.
As soon as the bell rang we got up and walked out side and Gappy and Nick were still in a conversation.
"Are you going to have a party?" Gappy asked.
"Why would I have a party?" Nick countered frowning slightly.
Gappy shrugged "I don't. It would be cool if you had a party though and invited most of everyone in our grade."
"Oh, wow, a party," A familar female voice dais sarcastically from behind "Parties are great if you're a child, Gappy.
Gappy stopped and turned around. "No body was talking to you, slut."
I was stunned at how Gappy was like today.
"Slut? SLUT?" She asked in a considerably loud voice. "I am no slut, you bitch."
"Oh, why thank you for calling me such a nice name." Gappy said.
"What? No," Jill said frowning "I was insulting you."
Gappy shrugged "Well, it didn't work very well then."
Jill made a noise then looked at Nick. "Nick! I have to tell you everything about this school and how those two or at least one of them isn't like as well as I am."
"I'm not as well like as you because I'm not a slut." Gappy called out. "And you're not allowed to call him Nick yet because you don't know him properly."
"Gaybreelle," a teachers voice appeared behind us and had placed a hand on her shoulder.
"Uh-oh" Gappy said.
"You shouldn't use words like 'slut' especially if they are important people around here." She continued.
"How do you know it was even me?" Gappy countered turning to face Ms. Shadbolt.
"I don't care who said the word." She said "I'll just assume you."
"Fine then Ms. Bitch I said the word slut." Gappy said sarcastically "Oh no I said it again."
Ms. Shadbolt's face was going red. "That's it both of you Friday afternoon detention." she fumed.
She turned away and walked off.
"Sorry, I didn't mean to get you a Friday anfternoon detention." Gappy quickly apologised.
I laughed "It's okay, that was pretty amusing."
"But I think your mum will kill me." Gappy said "I think my mum will kill me."
"Oh, well." I replied and continued on the pathway back to our classroom in A block. "I just hope Nick's okay and not being tortured by Jill."
"Yeah," Gappy said then smiled "He's cool."
"Really?" I said in mocked surprise "I thought you hated celebrities."
Gappy shrugged again "It's probably the fact no body knows them very well and already fallen in love with one."
She looked at me accusingly. "Me? What about you and William Beckett?"
She flushed slightly "Shut up."
