Marcus' POV
I scurried away from Trent as fast as I could. Curse this stupid school! Why did I have to move here?
Crash! I heard a gasp and looked down to see a brown haired girl on the floor with books surrounding her.
Terrified, I quickly apologized. If word got around I hurt a popular girl, a "fresh new start" would be just a dream.
After helping her up, I learned her name was Bree, and that she has three brothers; Adam, Chase, and Leo.
They lived up to my expectations. Adam seems nice. I hope we have Gym together! He would be a great team member.
Chase seems a bit stuffy, but nice all the same. Maybe he could help me with homework?
And Leo. Man, I hate that kid. I'm going to have to keep an eye on him.
Then, Adam suggested I come to their house! My first friends! I was super excited until Leo called me "Captain Eyebrow", and said that NO WAY was I going to their house.
They should relax! I know all about them anyway.
"It's alright! I don't want to be a bother." I said, making my eyes droop ever so slightly. "You guys are the first friends I've had, so..." I let pity do the work.
"Marcus, you can walk home with us after school," Bree said.
Score!
The bell rang. The bionics ran to class.
Leo turned and glared at me. "This isn't over, Bushy Brow."
I rolled my eyes. They have no idea what I'm capable of.
