Chapter 3-Feeling Left Out And Friends

As school ended, Alexis felt like she just didn't fit in, everyone already had their friends and weren't looking for any new ones, or...that's what it felt like, she just couldn't help but feel left out.

"So, Lex, how did you like your first day?" Keely asked as she caught up with her sister.

"It was okay, but what do you expect, it's school." Alexis said.

"True. So I was thinking that we go to the mall with Tia, wouldn't that be awesome?" Keely asked.

"Yeah." Alexis lied, she knew she wouldn't have fun, she hated shopping, but...she decided to anyway, there was nothing better to do.

"Ok, great, I'll tell Tia we're meeting her there at four, then we can shop until five-thirty, any later than that, mom will unleash the dogs and call the police to look for us." Keely said as she looked around.

"Who...or what, are you looking for?" Alexis asked as she stared at her sister.

"Phil, he was supposed to meet me outside of the school. Oh, there he is, come on." With that Keely left and walked up to Phil."

"Hey," Phil said, "Where's Alexis?"

"Oh...she's right over there." Keely motioned for Alexis to come over, but Alexis just turned around and headed home.

"That's weird, I thought she would want to walk home with us, oh well, let's go, I'll see her at home." Keely said as Phil and Keely started walking towards their houses.

Meanwhile...

"Come on Pim, it's for a very good cause." Debbie said as she followed Pim.

"Listen Berwick, I already told you I won't do anything for charity, so stop following me." Pim said as she headed inside her house and slammed the door.

3:30 pm...

"Come on Lexi, we have to go meet Tia at the mall." Keely said as she headed out the door, Alexis followed, slowly.

At the mall Alexis was so bored, she just wasn't like them, she hated fashion, she was just, plain.

As 5:00 came around, Keely and Tia were looking at shoes, and Alexis just sighed and waited until it was time to go home, practically falling asleep in the process.

5:30 pm...

'Finally,' Alexis thought, they had been shopping for two hours and Alexis didn't buy anything, while Keely and Tia each had three bags.

While they made their way home, Alexis was extremely quiet and neither Keely or Tia noticed.

A few minutes later...

"Well bye Tia, see ya at school." Keely said as she waved goodbye to her friend, Alexis just waved.

Keely was quiet for the rest of the way home(that's unusual) and Alexis didn't mind, she needed to find a friend that was more like her.

Two days later...

Today was Wednesday, and Alexis didn't know that this day would be a good one, infact, a great one.

As Alexis walked to her locker she spotted a girl walking in the school, who didn't look familiar, so Alexis did what she thought she should, she introduced herself.

"Hey, I'm Alexis Wellor, you're new here, aren't you?"

"Yeah, I'm Madilyn Graler, everyone just calls me Maddi." Madilyn said.

"Oh, everyone calls me Lexi, or Lex. If you want, I can help show you around, let me see your schedule." Alexis asked and Madilyn handed it over to her, after a moment of looking at it, she handed it back.

"Ok, you have first hour with me, that's math with Mrs. Hawer.(I'm just making up names, because I wanted too)Second hour history with Mr. Gulter, that's with my sister, Keely, don't worry, she looks just like me, literally. Third hour is with Ms. Rice and that's science, Keely, Phil, and I are in that class with you, Phil is my sister's best friend. Fourth hour is lunch, Keely, Phil, Tia, and I have that class with you, and Tia is my sister's other friend. Fifth hour is free period and again, all of us have that class. Sixth hour is english with Mrs. Bartliner, Keely and Phil are in that class with you, and that's your schedule. Wow, I can't believe I remembered who was in what class, I'm new here too, Monday was my first day, I was adopted so I came to find my real family. I normally don't talk this much, but today I guess I am, and we better hurry because class starts in two minutes." Alexis said as she took a deep breath.

"Ok then, let's go." Madilyn said as she started following Alexis.

Alexis finally felt better, maybe this year wouldn't be so bad, at least she would have one friend, and that's better than nothing.

A/N: I still need a song for Keely to sing, and once again, like the reviews said, I added some stuff to hopefully make it better, like what happened at the mall and the letter to Cameron.
