A/N: So this is my new OC fic, it's the second year in Roundview and there's a new girl joining their form. How will the gang react to her? I should mention now that this will be femme slash and will contain Naomily so if your offended or just don't like that kind of thing then don't read it but if you do like that kind of thing then I hope you enjoy!

A note to anyone reading my other OC fic If you're Irish, I'm not done or giving up on it I just got this idea and got really excited about it so I had to write it! I'm working loads and really unsociable hours at the moment so I will try to update all my fics ASAP

Now on with the story! Please review and tell me what you think.


Emily woke early on that Monday morning, remembering the previous year's events and how Katie had spent an hour in the bathroom using all the hot water and stealing her outfit; that wouldn't happen again this year. She quickly silenced her alarm and headed to the bathroom for a hot shower. Katie was still softly snoring when she returned dressed in a towel, her red hair dripping around her shoulders. She moved to the other bed and knelt beside her sister.

"Katie." She said softly. Her sister stirred but didn't waken.

"Katie!" She said a bit louder this time and the older twin opened her eyes to glare at her sister.

"What?" She growled. Emily had woken her from the best dream. She was queen of Roundview and two fit boys were literally fighting for her attention while 6 others stood topless fanning her and feeding her grapes.

"Get up. We start back to college today." Emily gave a small smile then moved back to her side of their bedroom to get ready. The summer had not passed without its difficulties. Emily had to fight to get Katie and her parents to accept Naomi as her partner and Katie had to fight to reclaim her favour among her friends. But things were better now, mostly.

"Do we have to?" She groaned, brushing her wavy brown hair out of her eyes. Over the summer Katie had made the decision to darken her hair, while Emily had opted to stay a red head. It was part of their new, we're twins but we're different thing.

"Yes." Emily insisted, rolling her eyes. Katie gave a heavy sigh and threw the covers back. If she had to return to college after the events of the Love Ball you would be damn sure she was going to do it in style. She shuffled to the bathroom hoping a shower would wake her up.

Emily dried her hair straight and chose and outfit; a cute skirt and shirt combination with a nice pair of pumps. Katie chose some tight jeans and a low cut leopard print top; some things would never change.

There would be no lift in Danny's Renault Megane coupé this year. This year they would walk to college like everyone else. This year when they started they were already known as that gay girl and her twin sister who Effy Stonem hit on the head with a rock. Though they had, sort of, made their peace with Effy there would be no stopping the rumours and the whispers in the corridors. Luckily for Katie she was practised in dealing with such things. As they approached the college gates she drew a deep breath and stood up tall, walking into the place like she owned it. That attitude alone was enough so set half the fist years shaking in their shoes. Again Emily found herself envying her sister for her ability to interact with her peers and deal with situations like this. With a small sigh she shook her head and followed Katie. Maybe a lot of things would never change.

As it turned out not much was different about being a second year other than you already knew where all of your classes were. Kieran announced that there would be a new girl joining their form group but she was not at registration. This left everyone wondering and speculating about her. Cook stretched his arms out in front of him in anticipation for new game. JJ innocently wondered what she would be like and the possibility of her liking him. Katie secretly feared the girl would be another Effy Stonem, another contender for Queen Bee at Roundview.

"And as if that wasn't enough, wait till you hear this bollocks!" Kieran ranted in his thick Northern Irish accent. "They're forcing us to teach you hopeless cretins 'Life Skills' yes on your timetables you will see an extra class. During that time you will come here and I will try and instil in you the qualities of worthwhile human beings. Although for some of you I fear it may be too late."

A chorus of groans echoed round the class.

"I don't like it anymore than you but that's Doug!" He sighed and sat back down. "When the bell rings you can go." He informed them leaning back in his chair and closing his eyes.

Their first class was basically the same for all of them regardless of what subject it was. The teachers had stood at the front of the class and showed them a graph exhibiting the correlation between class attendance and good exam results. They were then urged to come to every class no matter what else was going on that might be more interesting or simply less educational.

"Thank God that's over." She muttered to herself as she exited the classroom and headed towards her locker. She had a free period now. Thirty blissful minutes with which she could do whatever she wanted.

"Are you looking at me?" A female voice at the locker beside her said in an accusing tone. It took her a while before she realised the voice was addressing her.

"What?" She turned, her brow furrowed in confusion, to face the owner of the voice. The owner was a chavy looking blonde girl who was wearing far too much makeup and none of it was working for her.

"You were looking at me weren't you?" She squared up to Emily. Three girls who looked just liked her stood behind her.

"No I wasn't." Emily stammered defensively. She couldn't have been looking at her; her head was stuffed in her locker for fuck's sake.

"Yes you were you pervy lezzer bitch." The blonde sneered while her friends behind her chuckled.

"I...I...I wasn't." Emily stuttered. She knew things like this would happen but she never actually prepared herself for when they did.

"Oh please!" A scathing voice on the other side of Emily scoffed. "She might be gay but she still has standards."

"What?" The girl exclaimed.

"You heard me." The red head smirked. "From what I hear your number's on so many bathroom walls it surprises me you haven't hired a secretary."

The blonde looked shocked that someone was standing up to her. She opened her mouth to retaliate but couldn't think of anything to say to she settled for glaring at this new girl and storming off with her clones following close behind. Emily turned to look at the girl who had just jumped to her rescue.

"Word of advice; if you're going to be out in an environment like this you should learn some better comebacks." She closed her locker and smiled at Emily.

"Uh...thanks." Emily shrugged. "You really didn't have to do that."

"Narrow minded people like that are the scum of the earth. They need to be put in their place." The girl shrugged. Emily took her in for the first time. She was definitely new here. She had naturally red almost auburn hair that Emily would kill for and she wore a short black denim skirt with tights and a pair of biker boots. She had an air about her that said she didn't give a fuck what people thought of her. Emily envied that.

"Are you the new girl then?" She couldn't stop herself from asking. She definitely would have remembered seeing this girl in the hallways.

"Yes." She blushed slightly. "Is it that obvious?"

"No I just don't recognise you." Emily shrugged.

"I'm JJ." Emily did a double take.

"Jesse, Jesse James Henessy." She chuckled. "Don't ask, my parents thought it was a cool name."

"I'm Emily." She said through a chuckle. "Emily Fitch."

"It's nice to meet you Emily Fitch." She smiled and shook the twin's hand. The bell rang to tell them to get to their next class.

"You too." She smiled because she really meant it. There was something refreshing about this new girl. Emily wanted to get to know her better.

"So where are you off to now?" Jesse inquired.

"I'm free now."

"Me too. I missed my first class, History, because Doug wanted to get to know me so he could help me feel like part of the Roundview crew...I think I would have preferred to be in class." She giggled.

"Yes Doug is all about interacting with the students. That won't be the last you see of him either." Emily laughed.

"I gathered he might be a little eccentric when I read the Welcome to Roundview brochure. He really is down with the kids." She said in a mocking tone. The two girls had begun walking aimlessly down the hall.

"Well you didn't miss much in History, I was just there. If you wanted I could show you around now, seeing as we're both free." Emily suggested, jumping at the chance to spend more time with the new girl.

"Really?" JJ sounded thrilled at the idea; Emily wasn't used to people being thrilled at the idea of spending time with her. "That would be great. I hate being new."

"No problem." Emily shut her locker and they headed off down the corridor to explore the sights and sounds of Roundview.

When the bell rang for lunch Emily waited by her locker for JJ, she figured the girl wouldn't want to eat alone so she was planning on introducing her to the gang. They head out the side doors to the courtyard and the outside benches wanting to make to most of the last of the sunshine.

"Thanks for this, you really don't have to." Jesse smiled at Emily.

They approached a table where a curly haired boy was sitting watching three trays of food. Emily sat down facing him and Jesse took the seat next to her. JJ looked up and smiled brightly at the two.

"This will be fun actually." Emily chuckled. "JJ this is JJ. JJ, JJ." She laughed gesturing back and forth between the pair. Jesse laughed.

"This could be complicated."

"It's nice to meet you." JJ extended his hand to the girl. They were joined by the girls as Freddie and Cook reappeared across the courtyard.

"Alright." Naomi greeted them as she sat down and placed a possessive arm around her girlfriend.

"Who's this then?" Katie asked, wondering how her sister had managed to befriend the new girl when she had been looking out for her all day. She hoped Emily hadn't done anything too uncool around her and fucked up their chances of having a new friend.

"This is JJ; the new girl joining our form group." Emily announced as Cook and Freddie took their seats beside the male JJ.

"Wicked now we have two!" Cook chuckled as he eyed up the new girl. She was rather pleasing to the eye. He would definitely sleep with her.

"JJ this is Naomi, Katie, Effy, Pandora, Freddie and Cook." Each of them gave a wave or a hello when they were introduced. JJ looked around trying to commit all their names and faces to memory. Naomi was Emily's girlfriend and Katie was her twin so they were easy enough to remember. Freddie was the scruffy looking skater with olive skin and Pandora was the girl with the bunches in her hair. Cook was, as his tattoo proclaimed, a typical Jack the lad and beside him was Effy, the brunette with the sad eyes. And of course the curly haired boy was JJ, the one with the same name as her.

"Hi." She smiled at the many people staring at her. A blush crept up her neck as she felt like she was on show.

"So JJ how do you like Roundview so far? And how come you weren't in registration this morning?" Pandora asked with the inquisitive nature of a child.

"It seems like any other school really. Except for Doug. He's definitely something else. That's why I didn't make it to registration this morning, or to my first class, he wanted to spend some time 'chilling' and getting to know each other." She rolled her eyes. Everyone nodded, they'd all been through the Doug interview.

"What subjects are you taking?" Katie asked, wondering if she would have any classes alone with the girl.

"Uh...History, Maths, Biology, Chemistry and Sociology." She shifted uncomfortably in her seat, she really didn't like having all this attention focused on her. "We really don't have to talk about me for all of lunch. We could talk about something else. Really!" She said insistently.

"Sorry. Not much happens here." Effy looked deep into Jesse's blue eyes. "Fresh blood always causes a bit of a stir." She said pointedly, ending her sentence by lighting a cigarette.

"We can talk about something else though." Emily suggested, not wanted to make Jesse feel any more uncomfortable than she already did about being new.

"We should probably clear one thing up first though." Jesse stated. "What do your Js stand for?" She asked the boy facing her.

"Jonah Jeremiah." He smiled cheerfully. "Yours."

"I'd rather not say." She said, casting a knowing glance at Emily that didn't go unnoticed by Effy who looked between them thoughtfully. "Well since you were here first you should really get to keep the name JJ."

"Thanks." He replied, thinking it was the appropriate response.

"We could call you girl JJ." Cook suggested with a giddy laugh.

"Or just Jay, singular." She suggested with a shrug. "Or you can call me Jesse. Whatever you feel like."

"Well now that that's sorted." Katie said firmly, sitting up straight to exhibit her self-proclaimed dominance over the clique. "Who is up for a party this weekend?"
