Soooo, here is chapter two of my new story Sweet Misery. Enjoy!
Mel's P.O.V.
As the bell rang Iggy said, "Well see ya guys later. I'm off to Spanish."
So that left Max, Nick, and me in the courtyard. Max stood along with Fang and asked, "So what's you next class?"
I took out my schedule and saw that I had biology next. I handed mine to Max and she nodded. "Looks like you have the same class as me. Come on. I'll show you where to go," she said. I nodded my thanks and followed her as she hugged Nick and walked away.
We continued down the corridors and walked through a series of hallways. I saw that all the lockers were painted a dark gray with black knobs. I could see the floor was covered with a white laminate flooring covered with dirt and what not.
The walls were painted a crisp pale blue. I guess the school didn't have any sense of school spirit. I didn't realize I had stopped till Max walked over and flicked me in the head.
"You coming or are you going to be late," she glared.
I shrugged and we continued to class. Finally we reached the class. I opened the door and let Max go in first following closely behind.
As we entered I saw the teacher was in mid-lecture. He stopped and looked up at us along with the rest of the class.
"Well, nice of you Miss. Ride to join us. And who is with you?"
Max just shrugged and said, "This is Melody. Melody this is Mr. Grumpa." The teacher sent a glare at Max and said, "Go sit down."
Max smirked and walked to sit in the very back next to a dark brown haired girl.
I handed my slip to the teacher and he signed and told me to sit in the front row. I was about to go sit when he said, "Melody, why don't you tell us a little about yourself."
I stood at the front of the class and said, "Hello, My name is Melody, but call me Mel. I am from Forks, Washington and love to write and read stories."
I sat at my desk and listened for the next two hours as the teacher droned on and on about Shakespeare.

Finally, the school day is over! I rushed to the parking lot when my phone rang and I saw it was a text from Gina.
Gina: Meet me in the parking lot.
Mel: K. On my way!
Gina: Meet you sweetie!
Mel: Bye
I closed my phone and rushed to the parking lot. I was going so fast I ran straight into someone Knocking us both to the ground.
I sat up and saw that it was the girl with brown hair from Biology. I picked her up and said, "I'm so sorry. I didn't see you there. Um.. I'm Melody. But, call me Mel."
The girl smiled and said, "It's okay I'm very clumsy. And I'm Ella. You met my sis, Maximum Ride. Or as to everyone, Max."
I nodded and said, "Well sorry again and nice to meet you Ella. Um… I got to go. My mom's waiting for me."
Ella nodded and walked off to where Iggy, Nick and Max were waiting. I stared at them when Max looked at me and narrowed her eyes.
I turned away and rushed over to where Gina was waiting in her blue 1978 suburban. She smiled as I climbed into the passenger seat.
"So how was your first day? Was it really nice," she asked while pulling out of the parking lot.
I nodded and said, "It was great! I got to meet a few people. Their names I think were Iggy, Max, and Fang. They were really nice. I also met Max's sister, Ella. She was really nice. Otherwise, that was it."
I was almost done when I saw Gina stiffen. "Gina? Is something wrong?"
Gina just shook her head and looked straight ahead. "It's nothing sweetie. Glad you had a fun day. Um…. Your father, Ryder, won't be home till dawn. So, we need to head over to the school for a bit. That alright?"
I smiled and said, "I just got to do a worksheet for American History."
~Time skip~
We waltzed into the large bricked building. About five scientists met us outside and said, "Hello, Gina. Welcome back Mel."
I answered solemnly, "Hello, Fernando. Where is Flexi and Lila?"
Fernando looked away in shame and said, "I'm afraid Flexi was killed by a winged experiment named Arrow. He was terminated though. Lila is in the Eastern Quadrant with her mother, Sophia."
I felt tears sting my skin as I turned my head away. Flexi had been one of my very best friends here at the school. Lilia was her twin. I couldn't imagine what she felt right now.
Gina wrapped a comforting arm around my shoulders and led me to the end of the white hallway and down three flights of stairs. That was all I remembered before everything went black.
Soooo….. What do you guys think?
Max: Loved it so far!
Mel. Definitely!
Fang:…..
Me: R&R?
