"G!"
"O!"
"G-O!"
"Go Fighting Squirrels!"
As the crowd of people swarm out of the gym, shouting and chanting from the pep rally, Jessica and her friends stay behind.
"Talk about lame mascot." Says Noel, flipping her fake black hair into her face.
"Yeah, why couldn't they pick something that actually fights?" James, the only gay goth in our group stretches, frowning at his own question.
"Hey, you mean to tell me that you have never seen two squirrels fight? I mean come on, they need to protect their nuts." Bret punches James in the arm, and says, "Kinda like how us men have to do with our nuts." Bret was one of the two straight guys in our group, he was the only tough guy though.
"You're sick Bret, not everything is a fight you know, nor is everything sexually related." Lindsey replies, applying a thick layer of black eyeliner.
"Can't help it if I am male, I have needs too." Bret whined and pouted his lip.
"Poor you, why don't you go to find Ashley and make out with her behind the gym like you always do?" I poked at Bret with the brush I was holding, I had been pulling my short hair into two mini pigtails behind my head. My hair is naturally red, crimson if you prefer.
Bret backed off and grinned foolishly, his spiked hair today was an electric blue, matching the thread color on his gothic pants. Price was sitting at my feet wearing the same kind of pants; only the thread sewn on them was green. His hair hung in front of his face making a thin veil between him and us; it was long about as long as below his ears, his hair is naturally black. Our clique is the gothic and outcast group, the collection consisted of seven people, myself included. We all wear the same kind of clothes, mainly dark with chains that jingle when we walk. We all have the same kind of look, dark hair, pale skin, most of us are skinny and gangly.
I am the odd one out unfortunately, not fitting perfectly with them, but not clashing either. I have crimson hair, bright blue eyes, very pale skin, and instead of being skinny I am on the chunky side. The only reason I belong to this gathering is because I brought everyone together. My name is Jessica Maricone.
