Jayfeather got up from his seat, stretching and walked away to the computer. Despite being blind, he had a gift that he could know exactly where he was and what he was typing or writing in English, without seeing it. He left a half-eaten hot dog, some watermelon, a chip and some lemonade left. His two friends, Thornclaw and Spiderleg came in late, walking over.
"Watsup Jay?" said Spiderleg, brushing his black-brown hair out of his eyes.
"Yea man, sorry we're late, got anything to eat?" asked Thornclaw.
"Yea, we're about to start the movie but there's still a hot dog and some chips" he said, pulling up the movie.
Thornclaw started wrestling Spiderleg over the hot dog, throwing him into the table and took a bite. Spiderleg grunted, punching his arm and grabbed it.
"C'mon guys, will you stop? Why can't you just cut the hot dog in half you idiots" he snapped, walking over. Foxleap and Mousewhisker laughed as Lionblaze sat next to Cinderheart. Hollyleaf groaned, her black hair waving in the slight breeze, her shorts grass-stained from a soccer match she and her friends had. He cut the hot dog in half, giving them each a half, mumbling under his breath.
"C'mon guys, get on a beanbag, I'm starting the movie now!" he called, the sky's blue color turned to a pinkish purple as the sun sets. Lionblaze sat down on a beanbag next to Cinderheart, wrapping his arm around her. Foxleap and Mousewhisker wrestled for a second, trying to get comfortable, while Hollyleaf, Poppytail, Honeyfern, and Hazeltail giggled, sitting down on a blanket next to each other. Thornclaw slugged Spiderleap in the arm, before sitting next to them and Jayfeather started the movie, and sat down next to them. Lionblaze smiled, stroking Cinderheart's hair gently. Jayfeather sat. He had one other gift, that he was able to watch movies. Brambleclaw, their father, came out, holding tubs of Popcorn. He passed one out to each group of people. Lionblaze reached into the bucket, his hand meeting Cinderpelt's. Lionblaze looked up, his gaze meeting hers, and he leaned in, kissing her on the lips.
"Oh gross Lion! Ugh! Pause it! Pause it!" cried Mousewhisker.
Cinderheart smiled, ignoring Mousewhisker. Lionblaze smiled nervously, glancing at Mousewhisker angrily. Mousewhisker snorted, turning back to the movie.
"Sorry…" Lionblaze whispered, still looking at their hands. She gripped his tighter.
"I don't care, its fine" she smiled, putting her head on his shoulder to watch the movie. Hollyleaf looked over at Cinderheart, snorting in disgust, before turning back to watch The Lion King.
Lionblaze sighed. He was only able to see Cinderheart twice after the 4th of July party and now school was starting tomorrow.
"You ready for 11th grade, Jay? It's got to be boring." He groaned, laying upside down on the top bunk of the bed.
"At least we don't have to have Mrs. Mousefur again… unless she switched schools" he replied, pursing his lips together.
"We better get there now. We're supposed to go a day early to get out schedules and lockers." Said Lionblaze as he quickly threw on a varsity football jacket.
"Yeah OK, let's go" he grunted, hopping off the bed and strapping on his shoes.
Lionblaze grabbed his car keys.
"Dad, we're going to get our schedules! Hollyleaf will you hurry up already?" he called, starting the car. He climbed into the driver seat, as Jayfeather sat in the passenger seat, his expression blank and his blackish-grey hair covering part of his eyes. They waited, and finally Hollyleaf appeared, her black hair tied in a ponytail and ripped jeans, with a soccer jersey over top. She strapped in, glaring at Lionblaze.
"If you dare say a word to Cinderheart, you'll be sorry" she scowled, pursing her lips before sitting back into her seat. Lionblaze backed out slowly, before speeding up to the stoplight, and going through. He slowed, turning into the parking lot of Thunderclan Highschool. He quickly found a spot, pulling in and shutting off the engine.
"Yo look its Lionblaze! Whats up my man!" shouted Foxleap, as he leaped onto his back. "C'mon let's go" Lionblaze started towards the door, opening it for them. Lionblaze walked up to the lady, groaning.
"Lionblaze" he grunted, running his hand through his hair. The lady handed him his schedule, and he looked at it. It read:
1 Math Mr. Brackenfur
2 Math Mr. Brackenfur
3 EnglishMr. Longtail
Lunch
4 Science Mrs. Sandstorm
5 History Mr. Purdy
6Computer Science Mr. Brackenfur
7HomeroomMrs. Sandstorm
Lionblaze groaned, crumpling it up and tossing it into the trash can, Foxleap tapping his foot after flipping his short, ginger hair. Lionblaze ran his hand through his hair, walking to his locker. He turned the lock click click click. He growled, hitting the locker with his hand, before doing the combination again.
"Football game is tomorrow, Lion, you ready?" whined Foxleap, fixing the collar on his shirt, and unbuttoning the top button. Lionblaze turned, looking at Foxleap's red shirt.
"I'm going to meet up with Cinderheart" he said, tapping the locker with his fingers, trying to avoid the talk about the football game. He ran off, hitting the garbage can and spinning around, stumbling, and kept running. Foxleap stood there, dumbfounded. Lionblaze hopped into his car, speeding home with Jayfeather and Hollyleaf next to him.
