Chapter 1 : Wake me up when September ends…

It was already the end of the summer holidays. Freddy sighed ; what a wonderful time he had with his friends, nearby the pool, or just in the garage playing some band music, but… It was over. It was time to go back to school.

The dark brown haired teenager opened his shiny blue eyes, and looked at his alarm clock, which yelled at him to wake up. It didn't take much time for him to make it shut the hell up!

Freddy finally sat in his bed, running a hand through his mussed hair, and looked around his…messy bedroom. Yeah, it was time to clean it up a little bit too… He stood up on his feet, but he knew that 6 AM was too early for him!

He went to the bathroom to carefully style his straight dark brown hair, brush his teeth and dress up. A simple dark jeans, with a dark red t-shirt, but he added a simple light brown sweater, because he liked this one.

He didn't want to dress up, this day… He was kind of lazy.

Then, Freddy went downstairs and saw his mother in the kitchen, packing his lunch for him. The teenager smiled and hugged his mother.

« You're the best, mom! »

« I just want my lil' munchkin to have the best first day to school! » she said, kissing her son's cheek.

Freddy chuckled.

« Mom… I'm 16 now, I'm not a little boy anymore! » he replied, amused.

« You're still my son! »

He smiled to his mother. They always had a really good complicity, and the brown haired boy never had a huge fight with his mama. The only thing he didn't like about his family was the absence of his father… Working all night, sleeping all day. Freddy's father wasn't really present for his son, but… It was understood, he guessed…

Freddy kissed his mother on the cheek and thanked her for making his lunch, grabbed his heavy backpack, then left for school.

« Be well! » he said to his mother, before closing the door.

He started to walk to school. It was 6:31 AM, which was a record! He finally reached the park, close to a marina, where his best friend, nicknamed Foxy, was used to live. Foxy's real name was Jack, but his yellow sharp eyes made him look like a fox, so Freddy gave him this nickname.

Jack's father was part of the marine, so he sometimes used to help him. Counter to Freddy, he loved being on a boat, and he knew really well how to drive them! The teenager knew that his best friend could be a good marine… But he also really needed to go to school!

Jack finally went out of the small house. He used to live alone with his father, so the house was small and had only two floors, and a few rooms.

When Freddy saw his friend, he waved at him. A smile appeared on Foxy's face, and he waved back.

« Good morning, Fazbear! » he said, yawning.

« Haven't I told you to just call me Freddy? »

Foxy shrugged and started to walk besides of his best friend. They both were tired and weren't motivated to go to school, and Freddy's backpack was kind of heavy, without counting the books he carried in his hands. Foxy just brought what was necessary for this day… He was some kind of a lazy student.

After walking a little while, they finally reached the school. They got everything : Their student card with their worst-shot picture on it, their locker number, their class locations, their group number and their classes schedules.

« Which group are you in? » asked Foxy.

« Mmm… 42. I'm in the music and drama program! » he said, happily. « And you? »

« 44! With the sporty ones. I guess I'm gonna feel better there than with the drama class… No offense to you, Fred', but I thought it was a really boring, endless year. »

« You have your opinion! » Freddy chuckled.

They both went to their locker, but once they got downstairs, something fast just bumped into the two boys…

It was their friend, Chica, a blond young girl of 13 years old. She was wearing a yellow shirt, with a denim skirt, and black shoes, her hair tied into a nice and short ponytail. Once Chica bumped into her friends, she hugged them both at the same time.

« Freddy! Foxy! I missed you! One week without you is too much! »

Jack blushed a little bit. Freddy smiled and patted Chica's blondie head.

« I missed you too, Chica! But now we'll be together everyday! » Freddy said, happily.

The girl smiled back and showed her schedule to Freddy.

« Look! I was accepted into the music and drama program too! » she said, proud of herself.

« This is amazing! » Foxy said. « Congrats! »

Then, they talked together until they reached their lockers, and saw another of their friends there. It was a really tall and skinny guy, but he looked like he had sinewy arms, and god, this guy was damn strong. He pushed a strand of his purple hair away from his face and smiled at the trio.

« Hey guys! »

« Yo, Bonnie! »

He was putting his books in his locker. The friends' lockers were close to eachother, which was really practical for them, so they can meet eachother at least one time per day. Freddy smiled to Bonnie.

« Failed your year again? »

« Don't play with this, Fred'… Y'know I have my reasons. » he said, looking away.

Freddy sighed.

« I sure know that… But I hope you'll do efforts this year. »

« I will! »

Then, he shutted his locker and locked it. Chica went closer to Bonnie and hugged him tightly.

« Hello, Princess! »

« Aww, I like it so much when you call me like that! » she squealed, feeling honored.

Bonnie chuckled and softly ruffled Chica's blond hair. She giggled back, like an answer. Then, the bell rang, they all waved at eachother, and went in their different classes.

Bonnie took his schedule. Day one… First class? French class. Amazing! He had so much difficulty to speak in French, it was even harder than maths, to him… Plus, he always had the most awful classmates! He felt like he was the only one who was mature and calm… Well, he was 17, and generally, his classmates were around 14/15 years old, but age wasn't an excuse. People got dummer and dummer…

He sat at a place, in the back of the class, he didn't want to be seen. He putted his French grammar books on his desk, and grab the lecture one, then started to read, trying to understand something. But when the bell rang again, the teacher started to speak… In english.

« Hello, students. My name is Madame Beaupré, and I'm your French teacher this year. Just before we start, I'd like to introduce a new student! It's his first year in this school. »

She told the new student to come in the class. Bonnie rose his eyes on him… A short, skinny blue haired boy, with a really androgyne face and short hair. He had emerald green eyes, rosy cheeks and little freckles on his nose. He timidly waved at the class.

« Hi, my name is Candy. »

« Hello, Candy! » everyone answered.

« Okay, Candy, welcome! You can take a place besides Mr…. Bonnie. Welcome back, Bonnie, glad to have you in my class for the third time. » said Madame Beaupré, on an ironic way. « Okay, class! Prenez votre agenda à la page 3, nous ferons une lecture des règlements de l'école et ferons la traduction en français. »

A heavy sigh was heard in the class. Candy sat besides of Bonnie and got his agenda out of his solid blue and red small backpack. He quickly looked at Bonnie, mumbling a quiet and shy « Hello », then opened his agenda at page 3, just like the teacher asked.

…Bonnie didn't understand that. AT ALL.

Well… Maybe this Candy could help him with his French? Good to ask.

He didn't listen for all the class long. When the bell rang, he went to Candy.

« Hey, um… Candy, right? »

« Yes? » he answered, with a nice smile.

« Um… You're good in French, right? »

Candy smiled brighter, showing two bucked front teeth. Bonnie giggled.

« Yes, I consider I am really good with languages. »

« It's weird to ask, but… um… Can you help me with French classes? »

He nodded.

« Sure! It's a pleasure. » he said. « What's your name, already? »

« Bonnie. »

« Well, nice to meet you, Bonnie! »

They both shook eachother's hand. But then, a white haired guy, with pink strands in them, juste came behind Candy and patted his shoulder.

« Hey! You're coming, Candy? » he said, with his female-sounding voice.

« Oh, hey there Mangle! Sorry, my classmate was asking me something… »

« Hi. » Bonnie waved.

The named ''Mangle'' smiled and waved back. Under a long and large strand of hair, Bonnie could see that this strange boy has eyes that have two colors… One blue eye, one yellow eye. Pretty uncommon!

« Hey, Bonnie, why don't you come to eat at our table with our friends? That would be great! » Candy said, cheerfully.

« I'm sorry, I'm already eating with my friends… I promised. Maybe tomorrow, or another day of the week? »

« Good! See ya! »

« Bye! »

Then, Candy left, talking with his feminine-looking friend. Gosh, were they all new at the same time? And this Candy had some friends?

Bonnie shrugged for himself and started walking downstairs to go and see his friends.
