Author's Notes: I am sorry I'm not a good story writer, I try.
Detention. It has to be the scariest place in the school, except maybe the boy's bathroom. Filled with the school's worst bullies, criminals, and pranksters, it would be an easy place to get killed if the teacher wasn't looking and if you weren't as scary as the others. Harper had only one thought in her mind. I'm going to die.
Alex looked at her terrified best friend as they walked down the hall to detention. "Harper, What are you so scared of?" Alex asked.
"Criminals," Harper replied terrified.
"They aren't criminals. They are just normal people like me."
"That's what I'm afraid of."
Alex frowned. But then she realized that she does scare some people. Maybe a few people on the football team, and maybe some more. She might even scare some people in detention. None of them scare her. "Maybe if you keep a low profile, none of them will notice you."
"Okay," Harper said, still nervous. How can she keep a low profile wearing a dress made of fruit?
Alex and Harper walked into detention. Walking to the corner of the room, Alex glared at 2 boys in motorcycle leather jackets. They moved immediately. "Thank you." Alex said as she smiled and sat down innocently.
Harper sat down next to the chair next to hers that used to be occupied by the other scary guy. She got her watermelon purse and held it tight in her arms. No one is going to take my purse. I worked hard on it.
Just then, a girl walked in. She looked like a freshman, maybe a sophomore. She sat down at a seat in front of Harper.
"Hey, I like your shirt!" Alex said to the girl who just sat down.
"Thanks," the girl said shyly. She was wearing a black T-shirt that said 'Real men don't sparkle', as in Edward, the girly vampire from 'Twilight' that sparkles like a princess' tiara.
"I never liked that movie. It was too romantic for me," Alex said.
"I only watch it for Taylor Lautner."
"Oh ya! He is cute! I like horror films, like 'Night of the Halloween Sorority Party Disaster'." Alex said.
"I've never seen it."
"Oh, it's awesome!"
"Cool, I should see it sometime," the girl said writing it down in her notebook that happened to be open the whole time, but Alex never noticed it, she tried to avoid notebooks and schoolbooks.
"It's rated R, though," Harper said.
"Oh. I'm allowed to watch rated R movies if my parents watch it first and approve for me to watch it," the girl said.
"That's okay, I guess," Harper said.
"How did you get in detention?" Alex asked.
"I was late, again. You?" Jasmine replied.
"I was trying to pull a prank on a kid who stole my seat in Spanish class, but ended up pulling it on Mr. Laritate, which was hilarious! The bucket fell on his head!" Alex said, while laughing with the girl.
"I don't think it was funny, because I got framed of helping," Harper said, frustrated.
"Well, if you didn't have a crush on Justin, then maybe you wouldn't be in here. Karma is telling you that having crushes on your best friend's nerdy brother is weird," Alex said while rolling her eyes.
"I can't. My heart is telling me we were meant to be together," Harper said with a dreamy look on her face.
"What's your name?" Alex asked, changing the subject of her best friend's weird crush.
"Jasmine Finkle. What's yours?" the girl replied.
"Alex Russo, and this is Harper," Alex said.
"Wait- Did you just say Finkle?" Harper asked Jasmine.
"Yeah," Jasmine replied, confused.
"I'm Harper Finkle," Harper said amazed.
"Wait… I thought you said you had no family in town, which is why you're living in my basement when your parents moved away," Alex said to Harper.
"I do, but they usually avoid me and my parents and not tell us where they live."
"Oh, so you're who my parents said not to talk to when we moved here last week," Jasmine said.
"Well, that was mean," Harper said.
"But I think he was mostly talking about his father's brother's son, his cousin, your father, I'm guessing." Jasmine said, being specific.
"He moved away," Harper said.
"Okay, I guess I could tell my dad to stop being so worried," Jasmine said.
"What did Harper's dad do to make your father hate him so much?" Alex asked, hoping to get a good story to pass the time in detention.
Jasmine started to talk, "Well…
Author's notes: I did not describe Jasmine, because I want you to picture her however you want her to be pictured. If you have a crush on Jake T. Austin (Max) then you can picture her as yourself. If you don't have a imagination picture her as... anyone but Bella Thorne (she played Max's gf in 'Max's Secret Girlfriend'. She scares me!). I had this idea before the episode where Max has a girlfriend came out, I planned it all in my head, but then forgot the plot. All I can remember was what is in the description for this story.
I worked really hard to try to figure out how to make Jasmine not a mary sue. If she seems "mary-sue-ish" to you, please tell me about it in the comments and an idea how to change her in whatever chapter will be next. Thank you! :)
