Monday morning
Beacon Hills high school
"Okay Mr. Mahealani your mom already informed us about the incident at your old school but you don't have to worry about that here." Mr. Keith says. "You have all your information about your classes and everything so you should be set. If you need anything or have any problems my door is always open."
Danny nodded. "Okay."
"Also your mom thought I'd be a good idea for you to meet once a week with the school counselor." Mr. Keith says. "Did you already talk to her about it?"
"Yeah she already told me everything and I don't mind going to the school counselor." Danny says.
'I want you to go today after school, just so she can get to know you." Mr. Keith says. "After that you start going every Wednesday after school." Danny nodded and Adam got too his feet. "Alright first period is about to start and you're all set, welcome to Beacon Hills."
Danny stood up and shook his hand. "Thank you." Throwing his book bag over his shoulder he left the office. He stopped by a row of lockers and pulled out his schedule to see where his first class period was. A few seconds later someone touched his shoulder and he turned around. "Yeah?"
"Sorry um you're leaning on my locker." He said.
"Oh sorry." Danny says moving away from the locker.
"Never seen you before, are you new?" He said and Danny nods. "I'm Scott McCall, what do you have first period."
Danny looked down at his paper. "Chemistry in a Mr. Harris class."
"Oh I have him too." Scott says closing his locker. "Come on I'll walk you there." The two of the walked off. "So what's your name?"
"Danny Mahealani." He said. "So Scott what do you guys do for fun around here?"
"There's not much to do but go to the movies or tossing e football around on the field." Scott says. "I'm actually on the lacrosse team so you should come check it out, maybe even try out."
"I can't really play sports anymore" Danny says looking down. "A while ago I got hit in the chest pretty hard and that put me in the hospital for a few months, I was on the football team. When I finally woke up they said that due to the impact from that hit I could never play any kind of sport again because the next serious hit like that could kill me."
"Wow, I'm sorry." Scott says. "But you should still come check it out, even if you're just watching."
"Sounds cool." Replied Danny." When they finally reached Mr. Harris classroom it was barley filled. "Where is everybody?"
"They don't usually get here until the warming bell rings." Scott scanned the room and spotted Stiles, he smiled. "Come on." He said heading over to him, Danny right behind him. "Hey Stiles."
"What's up?" Stiles looked past him and saw a taller guy behind him. "Who's that?"
"Danny, new kid." Scott sat in the seat next to Stiles while Danny sat in the vacant seat behind Scott.
"So now do you like Beacon Hills so far?" Stiles asked.
"Its okay, I haven't really been anywhere yet though." Danny looked towards the door when he heard someone cure. It was the kid on the bike that he saw the day he moved in. He watched him as he pushed pass other students to get to the back of the class, looking down when the guy looked his way.
Scott saw him and frowned. "That's Ethan Eastwood, he's been kind of sticking to himself ever since the accident happened."
"What accident?" Danny asked glancing back at him.
"His mom died about five months ago and them he lost his brother in a motorcycle accident one month later." Stiles says. "Ethan and his brother Aidan were on the lacrosse team too and they did everything together. After their mom died they quit the team and stopped hanging out with us and when Aidan died Ethan completely shut down. We've tried talking to him but he just doesn't want to listen." He then looked from Ethan to Danny. "You didn't move into the house next to his, did you?"
"Yeah." Danny frowned. "Why is there a problem?"
"Oh no I was just wondering." Stiles says. "So is it just you or do you have any siblings?"
"I'm an only child." Danny looked from Scott to Stiles. "Are you two best friends or brothers or something?"
Scott smiled. "We're best friends but not related in any way, plus we're kind of dating."
"Oh, you two are gay?" Danny asked sitting back.
"Yeah is that a problem?" Stiles asked.
"No I just didn't think anyone was out at this school." Danny says.
"There's a lot of out people here." Scott says as the warning bell started ringing. "Stiles and I are just the only ones in this class, besides Ethan."
Danny started to look back at Ethan again but decided not too. "So how long have you two known each other?"
"We met when we were six in elementary school and been friends ever since." Scott says. "We didn't start going out until middle school."
"Alright guys take your seat and let's get started." Mr. Harris says walking into the classroom. He started to shut the door but stopped when four other students rushed in. "Next time be on time or I will send you right back out." His closed the door and walked over to his desk. "Danny Mahealani, are you in here?"
Danny looked towards the front and raised his hand. "I'm here."
"Well let me be the first to welcome you to my chemistry class." Mr. Harris says. "I got your transcript papers from you last school and your grades were exceptionally high so I expect a lot from you. Maybe you can teach some of theses slack offs something."
"Why did he look at when he said that?" Scott says a low voice.
Stiles couldn't stop the chuckle that slipped from his mouth.
...
After school Danny was sitting outside the guidance counselors office on his phone when the door opened. Thinking it was the guidance counselor he put away his phone and stood up only to come face to face with Ethan Eastwood. "Oh sorry I thought you were the guidance counselor."
After staring at him for a few seconds Ethan cleared his throat and looked down. "That's okay, um you can go on in." He kept his head down and walked away.
Danny watched him go and when he disappeared around the corner he walked inside the room and saw a attractive woman standing by the window. "Um I was suppose to come here after school."
She smiled and walked over to him. "Hi Danny I'm Miss Morrell and I'm going to be working with you for the next few months. I actually have a meeting to go to in about ten minutes so we can just meet here Wednesday after school. My door is always open if you want to talk and whatever is said between us is one hundred percent confidential. Your mom also filled me in on your accident so we can start there if you like."
Danny nodded. "Okay." He walked with her back outside and stood by the wall as she locked her door. "I'll go then, it was nice to meet you Miss Morrell." He started to leave then thought about Scott's offer to check out the lacrosse team so he roamed the halls looking for someone he could ask for directions. He then spotted Ethan going through his locker so he walked over to him. "Hey?"
Ethan paused before closing his locker, slowly he looked over at him. "Hey."
"I don't mean to bother you but I was wondering if you could help me real quick." Danny says. "Is there another way to get to the lacrosse field instead of going all the way around the school?"
"Yeah, I'll show you." Ethan led Danny to the back of the halls where two double doors were. "Theses doors led out to the field but a little advice, don't try to talk to any of them while their practicing because coach will get ticked off about it."
"Thanks." Danny says. He watched him go then pushed open the door that led outside to the field.
