After they had seen the Principal, Mr Moon, Jackie got her schedule and a map of her classrooms. Helen had left to go work. Now Jackie walked alongside the Principal to her first class. Her first and everyone else's second, since it was already 10am. Her first class was English. Good. She liked that subject, but she hated to be the new kid.

They arrived outside the classroom and Mr Moon knocked on the door, walked in and said something to the teacher. He motioned for Jackie to go inside and left.

Aster's PoV

Mrs. Green was talking about the World War II when Principal Moon walked inside, and said something to her. Then he walked outside and someone else walked in. She was pretty small, had white hair and a blue hoodie that was slightly too big.

"A new guy, huh? Looks more like a girl to me." I whispered to Tooth. She looked at me and was about to say something when, Mrs Green spoke.

"Okay, class. It seems like we're having a new student. What's your name, Miss?" Mrs Green asked the new girl.

The girl looked up and she was really cute, she looked like a child. Her eyes were light blue, almost like ice and they were the prettiest eyes I've ever seen.

"Um.. My name is Jackie Frost." she said.

"Do you want to tell us something about yourself?" Mrs Green asked.

"Not really..." she said in a low voice.

"Okay, you can take the seat by the window, next to Mr. Sanderson." She pointed to the seat next to Sandy.

The new girl took the seat and looked outside the window. I saw Sandy write something on a paper and give it to her, I saw her smile and say something I couldn't hear.

"Looks like Sandy is getting a new friend?"

"Yes, we have to get to know her. Don't you think so Aster?"

"..."

"Aster?"

"Huh?" I looked at Tooth, who grinned at me.

"What?!" I asked.

"You were staring at the new girl." She smiled.

"Ah was not!" I snapped.

"You were, no denying." North laughed.

"Ah was n-"

"-Mr Bunnymund is it something you wish to say to the class or could we continue?" Mrs Green said and gave me an annoyed look.

I shut my mouth and gave my friends a look. I looked at Sandy and the new girl. They were 'talking' and laughing silently. I smiled and continued with my sketching. It had a spring theme with flowers and eggs. I love Spring, and Easter. It brings hope and new beginnings.

I was lost in my drawings until the bell rang and everyone left the classroom.

"C'mon friends, let's get lunch.. North said and walked out.

"Aster you coming?" Tooth asked.

"Yeah, one sec." I had to finish this first.

"..Hi I'm Tina, but you can call me Tooth, I guess you already met Sandy, the big guy is North and that is Aster." I heard Tooth say. I looked up and saw her talking to the new girl. She was even cuter up close.

"Hey." she smiled. Even if she seemed shy, she had a really nice smile, and I bet Tooth'll love her teeth. I snickered to myself.

"I'm Jackie. Could you maybe show me where lunch is?" she asked shyly.

"Yes, of course. Where is your locker?" Tooth asked.

"Umm..?" Jackie took her out papers to look, but Tooth was faster.

"Your's is close to mine." she smiled.

"You could eat lunch with us if you want."

"If it's okay with you.."

"'Course it is sheila." I said as I put down my drawings. "Ah'm Aster." I smiled to her.

"Jackie." She smiled back.

No PoV

Later, when the group was at lunch, they talked about themselves and got to know Jackie.

"So.. you're really from Russia?" Jackie asked North.

"Ja. Moved to Burgess with family when I was 10 years old, and soon meet these jokers." He laughed.

"Hehe, so what about you three?"

"I've been living here all my life, but my father is from Europe and my mother is from Asia."

"Is that why you know so many languages?" Jackie asked.

"Yea, and I love languages. When I grow up, I want to travel the world, and be a dentist."

"What about you Sandy?" Sandy wrote something on a note and gave it to her.

"I moved here when I was 3, and when I grow up I wanna be a pilot and fly my own airplane."

To prove his point he spread his arms and pretended to fly. This made everyone laugh like before.

"And you? No, wait! Let me guess... Australia, right?" Jackie asked Aster.

"'s right sheila, moved 'ere four years ago, with ma family. But afta' ah became 16, they moved back. Didn' like the weather. Too bloody cold." he grinned.

"Aww! Doesn't the Kangaroo like the cold?"

"...The WHAT?!"

"Kan-ga-roo" she said again, this time slower.

"Ah ain' no bloody kangaroo, Frost."

"Hehe, okay. Sorry, 'Roo.." she chuckled.

The others smiled at the two. They didn't know each other yet, but they already bickered like children.

The rest of school went by faster than Jackie had hoped. She wanted to spend some more time with her new friends.

When she arrived home she found Helen in the kitchen.

"Hello, Jackie. How was school?" she asked.

"It was great. The classes were okay and the teachers was good. Oh, and I found some new friends." Jackie answered as she took an apple.

"Really? Oh, I'm so happy for you. Jamie and Sophie are upstairs if you want to play with them. Dinner will be done in about an hour."

"Okay."

Jackie walked upstairs to her cousins and they played until dinner. And after that they played some more. When the clock struck 8pm she tucked Sophie in and read her a bedtime story, before she went to her own room.

In her room, she went to her bookshelf and took down a small silver box. In it it was some photos. On one you could see a younger Jackie, maybe around 12 years old and another small girl with brown hair and brown eyes. On another you could see a man and a woman, both dark haired and brown eyed. The woman looked like Helen, but older.

A small drop of water fell on the photo and she realized she had been crying. She put the photos down and put the box back in place, before she took out a book from her desk. On it, it read, "Jackie's Journal."

Jackie opened an empty page and started to write.

"Dear Journal,

Today I started school... yippie for me... But it went better than I thought. I found some friends too.

There's Tina, or Tooth as everyone calls her, since she loves teeth. She is crazy but she is really sweet.

North is from Russia and he may look big and mean, but he is really jolly and he loves Christmas.

Sandy is a small mute guy. He's very nice and funny. Even if he can't talk, he always seems to get his point across.

Then there's Aster.. He is from Australia and I love his accent. He has grayish/blue hair and his eyes are a gorgeous green color. They remind me of a warm day in Spring. He has a really nice body and he is so handsome...

In a couple of weeks or a month the ski resort will be open, and I'll be able to ride my snowboard again. Sweet.

Anyway, gotta go now, my bed is very tempting right now.
