The three skid to a halt as the last few people walked through the school gates. They walked towards the main entrance but were stopped by a slender girl with waist length ginger hair. She looked at them with bright blue eyes which were full of fear. "Hello." Luke said smiling at her. "Hi." She whispered.

"I'm Luke and this is Clyde and Rani, who are you?" He asked

"Tura." She replied.

"I've never seen you before are you new here?" Clyde asked. Tura turned her gaze to Clyde and nodded.

"Let me show you around Tura." Luke said gently. Tura looked back at Luke and nodded.

"That would be nice." She whispered. Luke took Tura's hand and led her into the school. Rani clucked her tongue moodily.

"Rani, Rani, Rani, are you jealous that Tura is with Luke alone?" Clyde joked. Rani glared at Clyde.

"No." She snapped, before storming up to the school.

Luke led Tura to Mr Chandra's office and Tura knocked on the door nervously. "Enter." He called. Luke and Tura walked in together. Haresh Chandra looked at Luke. "What is wrong Luke Smith?" He asked.

"Sir this is the new girl Tura." He said gesturing to her. Haresh looked at her.

"Ah miss Shore. Welcome." He said. Tura nodded politely. "Would you please go in Luke's tutor he seems to want to help you." Tura peeked up at Luke then nodded again. Luke beamed and took her hand. "Come with me." He said leading her out the office. Tura looked around nervously as many eyes started watching her and Luke. "Luke, what are they staring at?" Tura whimpered, she felt rather threatened, new school, new house, new friends, new life. "I don't know Tura. It'll be fine though. He led me into a class room and let go off my hand he went to sit with Clyde and Rani and pointed at the seat next to Rani. Tura then sat down; adrenaline engulfing her. She looked down at the desk and sighed. When the bell rang for first lesson Luke waited by the door and watched as Rani stormed past him. He glanced at Clyde. "What's with her?" Luke asked.

"Jealous." Was all Clyde replied with. Luke bit his lip.

"Can you take Tura to maths?" Luke asked. Clyde nodded and took her hand in his. Luke then turned and ran off to find Rani. He caught up to her before she ran into the toilets. "Rani!" He cried. Rani looked up her soft skin spotted with water. "Rani..." Luke began.

"Leave me alone Luke, go after Tura." She snarled.

"No. Your my friend and your sad." Rani glared at Luke before turning and running into the toilets. Luke sighed before turning and walking off to maths.

"Mr Smith you're late." Mrs Molit said sharply.
"Sorry miss." Luke mumbled. He looked up and saw Tura sitting at his desk. Silently he went to join her.
