Footsteps were heard running down the sidewalk. It was rather early but
early enough because school was about to start. "Stupid, stupid, stupid,"
muttered Fiona. "Of all the times for my clock to stop working it had to be
on the first day of the school year," said Fiona as she ran as fast as she
could down the streets. "It is my senior year and I have to do good if I
want to get into a good college," she said through her heavy breathing
because of the running. She was running so fast that she didn't have time
to stop when someone stepped right in front of her. Fiona hit the person
and they both fell to the ground. Fiona hit the ground with a thump. She
quickly got up and was glad to see that it was only Moonbay that she had
run into instead of people like Amy or any of her friends. "Watch where you
are going Fiona," muttered Moonbay as she rubbed her sore backside. "Sorry
about that. I wasn't watching where I was going Moonbay," said Fiona
getting up and giving Moonbay a hand before she started towards school
again, this time she just walked the rest of the way. "You are right about
that," said Moonbay as she continued to rub the area that she fell on. "How
did your summer go Fiona?" asked Moonbay trying to start up a conversation.
"Same as usual. It doesn't bother me though. As long as there is some peace
and quiet without her nagging me all the time then I would be very happy,"
said Fiona with a smile. "I know what you mean Fiona," said Moonbay, "Now
it is back to another year of school though and another year of her," said
Moonbay with a sigh.
"Why does school have to start so early in the morning?" Van asked with a yawn as he walked out of the door to his house. "It wouldn't be too bad if I could get a little extra sleep. Then I might make it on time once in a while. It isn't my fault if I ignore my alarm clock," muttered Van as he stuck his hands in his pockets. "Sure it is. You are the one that is ignoring it," said Irvine from right behind Van. "Shut up. I don't feel like arguing this early in the morning," muttered Van as he kicked a stone that was by his feet. "I heard you stayed home again for the summer when your girlfriend invited you to go with her," said Irvine with a grin at what was going through his mind. "So what?" asked Van suspiciously. "You didn't by any chance stay because of Fiona did you?" asked Irvine grinning more. "So what? She is a friend. I was just keeping her company," said Van eyeing Irvine. "I don't mean like that," said Irvine grinning even more if it was actually possible with how much he was grinning at that moment. "Huh?" asked Van for a moment before realizing what he was saying. "Nothing like that you pervert," yelled Van in Irvine's face. "Sure, sure," said Irvine in a tone that told Van he wasn't believing a word that Van said. "We are not like that," Van yelled again. "We're just friends," said Van calming down again. "Yeah, sure, and that is why you are getting so defensive over all of this?" said Irvine with the grin still on his face. 'Why do I even bother?' Van asked himself knowing that Irvine wasn't even listening. "Are you even listening to a word that I have been saying?" asked Van a bit angrily. "Sorry, but what did you just say?" asked Irvine still smirking. "Never mind," muttered Van. Irvine then started to run in front and was soon out of sight. Van was slightly glad about this because he wouldn't have to listen to Irvine by now.
"By the way how did your trip go Moonbay?" asked Fiona with a smile. "It was awesome going to those beautiful islands with all of the beaches. I wish that you could have been there. Then it would have been the best vacation ever," said Moonbay with a smile. "Why didn't you come anyways? I invited you and you refused it," said Moonbay looking at Fiona. "I would have but there were some things that I wanted to do here. Sorry if I disappointed you," said Fiona apologetically. "You are right that you disappointed me," said Moonbay with a fake pout. Then the both of them started to laugh. "So, what classes do you have this year?" asked Moonbay curiously. The annoyed look that Fiona had on her face was not too reassuring to Moonbay. Fiona reached into her backpack and pulled out her schedule. She handed it to Moonbay and Moonbay looked it over and cringed at just reading it. "Someone must be out to get you all of the years. Having Prozen for a teacher all of your years must count as cruel and unusual punishment," said Moonbay noting that Fiona had Prozen again. "Do you think that someone is out to make you suffer?" asked Moonbay. "Ok stupid question," said Moonbay seeing the weird look that Fiona was giving her. "Come on. We have to hurry up or we are going to be late," said Fiona as she started to walk a little faster and Moonbay followed right behind her.
It was very peaceful and quiet for Van at the moment. He was enjoying it a lot but it had to be interrupted when a car pulled up right next to him. "Hey there Van," came the voice of Van's girlfriend Amy. Van put on a smile and turned towards her. "Hey there," said Van. "I am surprised to see you up this early and not running to the school at the last moment," said Amy with a slight giggle. "My parents are making sure that I don't continue to be late to school this year because they want to see me get into a good college next year," said Van. "I see. Do you need a ride?" asked Amy with a smile. "I think that I am going to walk," said Van. "Oh no you don't," said Amy grabbing his arm and pulling him into the passengers seat. "I haven't seen you all summer and I want to spend some time with you," said Amy wrapping herself around his arm. "If you weren't going to take no for an answer then why did you even bother asking me if I needed a ride?" asked Van laughing a bit nervously. She actually seemed to think it over for a second before shrugging her shoulders and then starting to speed the car down the road. "That was one of the best vacations I ever had, but just one thing Van. Why is it that you never want to come with me on vacation anymore?" asked Amy with a fake pout. "I just didn't feel like it. Is there something wrong with just wanting to stay home for once?" asked Van curiously. "Yes there is because you have done it for the past few summers. All I want to do is spend a little bit of time with you, but you just won't come with me on my vacations," pouted Amy. Van in a way couldn't help but feel a little bad. "How about I make it up to you?" asked Van a little nervous. "That would be great," said Amy happily. 'Somehow I know I am going to regret this,' thought Van. Van then spotted Fiona and Moonbay walking towards the school. However Amy did as well. "Great. That is the last thing that I wanted to see on the first day of school," muttered Amy clearly annoyed to see them. "Just leave them alone," said Van with his head in his hands. "Are you taking their side now?" asked Amy looking at Van hard. "No. I just don't feel like getting into this, this early in the morning," muttered Van. Amy seemed to be happy by this. "You are right," said Amy with a smile. "I will leave them alone. At least for now," she said happily. 'Thank god,' thought Van in relief.
"Oh great look who is coming," said Moonbay spotting Amy's car. "I really don't feel like dealing with her right now," said Moonbay angrily. She was prepared for when Amy stopped to insult them like she took every chance to do. It didn't come however. Moonbay looked confused when they just drove right past them. "That was just a little strange. She didn't even try to stop to make fun of us. I wonder why she didn't do anything," said Moonbay a little startled. Fiona didn't say it but she knew that Van had something to do with it because she saw him in the car as well. "What does it matter? likes just go before she comes back to try her luck," said Fiona calmly. "That is a really good idea. I don't want it to happen before school starts, because if she insults us then I will insult her back and she won't be able to retaliate with anything except for words," said Moonbay with a slight laugh. "You think so?" asked Fiona looking at Moonbay curiously. "I know so. She may be cozy with a lot of the teachers and a good student so they respect her but if she got in a fight or something than they will have to use discipline," said Moonbay with a smirk on her face. Fiona couldn't help but laugh a little bit. "Sure it works both ways as well but as long as we can keep our composure then everything would be alright," said Moonbay happily.
'Thank you god,' thought Van after they had passed Fiona and Moonbay. 'That bought them a little time to try to find some ways out of a future argument for the day. Although that I am positive that that is a physical impossibility. If they could then I would definitely be happy, because I am very tired of all of the arguing that goes on between these two,' thought Van. He let off a sigh of relief. "Something wrong? Having second doubts about not picking on them right now?" asked Amy with a smirk. "No it isn't that. It is just I really don't want to be going back to school at the moment," said Van sighing again. "It isn't that bad," said Amy happily. "Maybe not for you but for me it is a little bit harder," said Van laying back in his seat. "Hey. Do you think that you can let me out? I want to walk the rest of the way," said Van hoping that she would agree. "Fine, but you had better get there soon," said Amy stopping the car. "Thanks. I will see you later," said Van giving her a kiss before starting to walk with her driving off.
"How long do you think it is going to take before she tries something?" asked Fiona as her and Moonbay were walking through the halls towards their homeroom. Moonbay merely looked at her watch. "I would have to say in another minute or two. You know that she just can't resist a moment that she could use to insult us. I mean it is like a daily tradition. A tradition that would be better if someone broke it. Who knows though. maybe with a little luck she will decide to just ignore us for the entire year. Yet that won't be possible and we both know that," muttered Moonbay half- heartedly. "It is always good to at least dream about such a wonderful life though," said Fiona as she opened up her locker. Nothing was said while she placed her things in her locker for the year. Fiona closed her locker and both her and Moonbay started to walk again towards their homeroom. Fiona noticed that Moonbay was too quiet for her normal self. "Some thing wrong?" asked Fiona looking at Moonbay. Moonbay came out of her quietness. "No. I was just thinking," was all that Moonbay said. "About what?" asked Fiona curiously. "I was just thinking about ways that I could annoy Amy and not get in trouble for it," said Moonbay with a huge smirk on her face. Fiona couldn't help but laugh at Moonbay's little statement. "Come on. We had better get to homeroom," said Fiona laughing just a little.
The two of them walked into the classroom to see Dr. D was already there in his teacher's desk. To her unwanted luck, Amy was there as well. Luckily she was talking to a friend. So Fiona tried to get by to the desks that Moonbay and her have had since she first came to the school. Although Amy didn't look at Fiona, Fiona knew that she knew that she was here. Sure enough as she was passing by Amy did the exact same thing she did the first day that Fiona came here. She stuck her foot out. Fiona saw it this time though and stepped over it while also making sure to step on it before she went by. Amy was immediately stood on one foot, yelling in pain as she nursed her sore foot. "Is there something wrong Amy?" asked Dr. D seeing her outburst. She then noticed everyone was looking at her. She sat down muttering, "No sir." Moonbay was on the verge of tears from this. "That is one way that you can do it," said Fiona happily when she sat down next to Moonbay. "She can't really blame you because she was the one that started it, and all that you have to do is say that it was an accident because you stepped on her outstretched leg, which she just so happened to put out while you were right next to her," said Moonbay giggling a little. "It also helps that the teacher isn't one of the ones that think of her as this perfect little woman," said Moonbay laughing again. At the moment Van came walking into the room. 'Wasn't he with Amy? So why did he come in after her? usually she will make sure that he is with her when she is at school,' thought Fiona curiously. Van looked at Amy who was still nursing her hurt foot and then he looked up at Fiona. Fiona just smiled and sat back in her seat. Van didn't bother to say anything as he took a seat next to Amy who was currently glaring at Fiona. Fiona noticed this and just smiled back at her making the woman even angrier.
"Did you see what she did to me?" asked Amy in a furious voice. "Um, no. I came in after it all happened. I only knew that something happened when I saw you holding your foot and glaring at her," said Van with a shrug of his shoulders. "She stepped on my foot and I am sure that it was on purpose," said Amy with a pout. "How did that happened?" asked Van barely able to control himself from laughing at it. "All I tried to do was trip her. That is all," said Amy still pouting. "Didn't you try to do that before?" asked Van as he seemed to remember her talking about something like that. "The first day that she came to this school," said Amy. "Didn't she do something similar that day as well?" asked Van trying to remember. "Yeah. She pulled my chair out from under me when she fell to the floor," said Amy still a bit angry. "If you knew that something like that was going to end up happening, then why did you do it again?" asked a curious Van. "I didn't think that she would do anything this time," said Amy with a pout. "Think it over a bit next time and things might turn out a little better," said Van. "I will try," said Amy as she reached up and kissed him.
"I think. That I am going to hurl," said Moonbay upon seeing the two kissing. She even went as far as running to a trashcan and faking throwing up to make her point. Fiona couldn't help but laugh at her friend's antics. "I realize that you are poor but eating out of the trash is just unsanitary. I feel bad for the bugs that live in it to be near your face," said Amy seeing Moonbay faking throwing up. "They would run for their lives out of horror of seeing you face in a ten feet radius," said Moonbay knowing that this was going to be fun. "At least I don't kill them with just my looks alone," said Amy with a smirk. "You are right. You don't kill them. You make them go through a fate worse then death that makes them want to die," said Moonbay with a smirk. Amy scowled before walking away with a scowl on her face. "Moonbay one, Amy zero," said Moonbay with a grin on her face.
"If looks could kill then I would definitely be dead by now," muttered Fiona seeing that Amy was still glaring at her. "You would have been dead a long time ago with how many times she has glared at you like that. Beside isn't that our mission? To make her that mad?" asked Moonbay with a slight grin. "That is your mission, but I must admit that it is definitely fun to do at times," said Fiona knowing that it was the truth. "I know what you mean. I would do it more often but she has Prozen looking after her so it is much harder to get away with anything when he is within a mile radius," said Moonbay with a slight laugh. "Sometime this year I will get even with both of them for all that annoying and pointless things that they have done to us," said Moonbay with a grin which kind of frightened Fiona a little. "Don't go over your head when you do, do that," said Fiona with a nervous laugh. "If I get in trouble then so be it, but I will make sure that the both of them are going to pay," said Moonbay with the grin still on. "Whatever you say," said Fiona before walking off to go to her first class.
While Moonbay was walking towards her classroom she saw something that seemed to make her laugh a lot. There was Thomas and he seemed to be talking to his locker about something. "You know it is pointless to talk to a locker because they can't respond," said Moonbay with a slight laugh. Thomas turned around to look at her and blushed in embarrassment at being caught. "Why not just ask her? It will help you out a great deal better instead of asking a locker out," said Moonbay with a slight giggle. "I-I don't think that I can do it. What if I mess up?" asked Thomas. "Also I am not sure that she would even want to go out with me," said Thomas quietly. "Awfully negative about what she is going to say. Try asking and maybe things will go your way," said Moonbay with a grin. "You two really are pathetic," came a voice that both knew so well. "I guess a geek will attract a geek," said Amy with a smirk. "Who asked you?" Moonbay yelled into her face. "Temper, temper. I was only telling a fact," said Amy with a smirk. "Well no asked you to voice you opinion. While we're voicing our opinions, I guess I will say what I think. I think you are a stuck up woman who only gets what she wants because she goes crying to daddy every time. You no conscience about other peoples feeling, so that just makes it worse," Moonbay yelled into Amy's face. What happened next only made Moonbay even angrier. Amy just smirked at her. "Are you done yet? I really don't care what you think because I am much better than you, and that you are saying if from a person that could only wish to be someone like me," said Amy with a grin. "Me want to be like you? That is the biggest load of rubbish that I have ever heard in my life. The day that I would want to be like you is. well never actually. I would rather kill myself than ever be like you," Moonbay yelled back. Amy just smiled and turned away and walked in the direction that Fiona went. "Stuck up snob," muttered Moonbay before she walked in the direction of her next class.
'Figures that the one class that I hate the most would have to be the first period of the day. They are out to ruin my life. Why not just keep ruining the rest of the day for me as a start?' Fiona thought to herself as she quietly walked towards her most dreaded place in the world. "Out of my way freak," said Amy as she shoved her way past Fiona. "Better a freak then a snot nosed brat," muttered Fiona under her breath. "What was that?" asked Amy angrily as she got right into Fiona's face. "I said that it is better to be a freak then a snot nosed brat," Fiona said right back to her. Van happened to be walking by at that moment. 'Sometimes those two need to give it a break. They are always at each other's throats. I hate to admit it but sometimes Fiona has to know when to stop. So does Amy as well. If they don't stop then one is going to eventually do something to the other. I wish this will all end,' thought Van with a look of exhaust on his face. "Van honey. Did you hear what she said?" pouted Amy as she wrapped herself around him. Van gave both of them looks that clearly said that he didn't want to get involved in the argument. "That's right go running to you boyfriend when you know that you can't win. Stop making others do your job and do things on your own," said an annoyed Fiona. Amy grunted before turning around still latched to Van. "Come on Van," said Amy pulling him. He didn't move. "What are you doing? Planning to go with her?" asked Amy angrily. "No. It is just that my class is in the other direction," said Van pointing down the opposite way. "Oh right," said Amy with a embarrassed laugh. She immediately let go of Van. "I guess I will se you later then," said Amy as she kissed him. Fiona just rolled her eyes and walked past them to her first class. 'What did I ever do to get a life like this? I have always been a good person. So why is it that I can't seem to live a more peaceful life?' Fiona asked herself.
There it was. The one door that she had to continue walking through for the past four years to her most hated class. It also happened to be the class that seemed to hate her the most. She slowly reached for the handle but was once again shoved aside by Amy as she opened the door and walked through saying things to Fiona like how she needs to watch where she is standing. "I didn't know that it was illegal to stand," Fiona mumbled to herself. She then opened the door and walked into the room. She was immediately looked at by Prozen. "Why is it that I can't seem to get rid of you?" Prozen asked staring at her hard. "How should I know? I am not the one that makes the schedules. If I did then I wouldn't be caught dead in this class," said Fiona in a dull voice. She then started to walk to an open seat. "You had better watch what you say around me," Prozen said after her. Amy then walked up to him. "Mr. Prozen it is a pleasure to see you again," said Amy in a polite voice. "It is always a pleasure to teach you," said Prozen in a voice that he always used when it came to Amy. 'Shoot me. Just shoot me now,' thought Fiona as her head hit the desk.
'Why is it that I keep getting stuck here every year most people get new teachers every year, yet I continue to get the same one. One of the people that hates me the most,' thought Fiona as she listened to a boring lecture from Prozen. She was also unlucky because Amy was in the same class again as well. Unlike the first year, Fiona learned to keep behind her so that she couldn't do anything serious. "Are you listening to what I am saying Fiona?" asked Prozen from the front of the class. "Yes sir," said Fiona in a very bored tone. "Just like the last fifty times you have asked that same question," Fiona continued to say. Prozen glared at her before turning around. 'I wonder if they would let me transfer classes,' thought Fiona. A while ago Fiona learned that Prozen didn't do as much if you showed that you didn't really care about what he does. It didn't stop him from giving her a detention every once in a while. Most likely Amy had requested a lot of them. 'Those two have been out to get me for years. I really want to get out of this class,' thought Fiona sadly.
'This day is almost exactly like the first day I went to this school. Sometimes I wish that Amy would suddenly drop off the face of this planet with Prozen right behind her. That way I wouldn't have to listen to them,' thought Fiona as she picked up some food for her lunch. "Hey there Fiona," came Thomas's voice. "Oh, hello Thomas," said Fiona with a smile. "Um, well I was wondering if I could talk to you about something?" asked Thomas rather nervously. "I guess," said Fiona nicely. Thomas didn't say anything for a few moments. "What is it Thomas?" asked Fiona seeing how nervous he was. "Well. You see," said Thomas but he was cut off because Moonbay broke in. "Hey there you two. How are my two good friends doing?" asked Moonbay with a grin. "A little annoyed by my schedule but just fine," said Fiona with a smile. Fiona then turned back to Thomas. "What is it you wanted to say Thomas?" asked Fiona with a smile. "Never mind," said Thomas with a sigh of defeat. "Come on. I have a table saved for us," said Moonbay as she pulled on the two barely giving them time to pay for their lunch.
"Come on Fiona. cheer up. Just think this absolutely wonderful thought. If you can live through this year then you won't have to see either of them ever again as long as you don't end up going to the same college as Amy," said Moonbay with a slight laugh just trying to cheer her friend up. "Too bad you don't have the same class as me. Dr. D is hilarious at some of the things that he does to help us learn. Fiona then seemed to brighten up a little bit. Moonbay seemed to notice this a little. "What's up with you. Weren't you just upset a minute ago?" asked Moonbay eyeing her friend suspiciously. "I have something that I am going to try to do. I will see you later," said Fiona happily as she ran off away from Moonbay. "Hey wait up," yelled Moonbay running after her. "What?" asked Fiona when Moonbay had caught up. "What are you planning to do?" asked Moonbay looking at Fiona. "Isn't it obvious?" asked Fiona happily. "No, not really," said Moonbay unable to think of anything. "What I am going to try to do is get out of that class and try to get into your class," said Fiona with a smile. "Good luck with that. I have tried to do that with a different class and they wouldn't do that," said Moonbay dully. "We'll see," said Fiona happily.
"No," said the woman that was behind the desk in the office. "But why?" asked a disheartened Fiona. "We try to go by the scheduled that we make at the beginning of the school year," said the woman. "I have had this teacher for every year that I have been here. He has given things like detentions for no reason. Blamed me for things that I didn't do," said Fiona trying to persuade the woman. "I said no," said the woman. "You know. I might be able to learn a lot more if I was to remain in the class a lot more. Prozen sends me out way so much that it makes it hard for me to keep up with the rest of the class," Fiona said in as much need as possible. The woman actually seemed to be considering it for a little while. She then just shook her head. "I can't do that," said the woman. "You are in charge of what classes we are in. I am sure that you can do something. I mean you are such a wonderful person. I am sure of that," said Fiona with a smile. 'If nothing else works then I guess I can just try flattery,' thought Fiona as she smiled. "Anyways. The students would definitely give you more respect if you were to do this," said Fiona. The woman definitely seemed a little flattered by what Fiona was saying. What came next made Fiona smile a little. "I will see what I can do," said the woman. "Thank you," said Fiona happily.
"I do not know how you did it Fiona. I have tried it for years and she hasn't even thought twice about saying no," said Moonbay impress by what Fiona did. "She is a nice person, but she does her job seriously. All I did was work hard and I got her to do it for me. although she said that I was a special occasion and that she wouldn't do it for anyone else," said Fiona happily. "Bummer," said Moonbay upset to hear that part. "At least now you will be in my class," said Moonbay happily. "I bet Amy will be terribly disappointed to have me leave the class. I wonder if she had anything to do with me being put in that class four years in a row," said Fiona in deep thought. "Wouldn't surprise me if she did it just so she could pick on you because Prozen won't do anything to her," said Moonbay with a slight laugh. "I already knew that," said Fiona with a smile. "I bet that he will be just as ruthless even though you are out of his class now," said Moonbay a little nervous. "No. he will probably be worse," said Fiona with a shudder at the mere thought. "Starting tomorrow I will be free from Prozen," said Fiona happily. "You are definitely not going to regret doing this. The old man is really good at teaching when he actually makes sense of what he is talking about. Most of the time he talks way too complicated that it make it hard for us to be able to understand what he is talk about," said Moonbay with a laugh. "Plus we do a lot of fun projects," Moonbay continued. "I could hate it for all I care. Just as long as I am away from Prozen I am happy. If the class happened to be a fun class I am getting into then that is just an added bonus," said Fiona with a smile. "Time to have a little fun," said Moonbay grinning. "I am sure that it won't be a little but a lot more fun," said Fiona happily now that she was away from that horrid class.
"Hey that is the same class that I am in," said Van later on in the day once Fiona had mentioned what she had managed to do. "Really?" asked Fiona happily. "Yeah. It is one of my favorites because I am actually able to relax a little in the class and not have Amy hanging all over me like she usually does," said Van with a slight chuckle. "Is his class really that fun?" asked Fiona curiously. "Sure. My favorite out of all of my classes," said Van with a shrug of his shoulders. "I am lucky that I didn't have Prozen for all of these years but I feel really bad for you," said Van with sympathy in his voice. "I am away from him now and that is all that matters," said Fiona happily. "Moonbay says that sometime this year that she is going to try to do something to him to make up for all of the detentions that he has given her and me in these fours years," said Fiona with a smile. "That is something that I would pay to see," said Van laughing at all the thoughts that were going through his head about what he thought might happen to Prozen. "I agree with Moonbay. He definitely needs to have something done to him. you aren't the only person he picks on. He has been picking on anyone that does even the slightest mistake so that he can have his fun. I have been on the receiving end of his punishments a number of times," said Van with a smirk. "I am curious as to what she is planning," said Fiona as she thought hard about it. "It had better be something really good because if it isn't then people that don't like him are going to be mad at her as well as myself," said Van. "Knowing Moonbay it is definitely something that if you knew it was going to happen, you would want to stay clear of anything that she might have gotten her hands on," said Fiona with a smile. "Wouldn't doubt it," said Van with a grin. "Moonbay can definitely be dangerous if she sets her mind on something like that. Hopefully I won't be a part of it because I am Amy's boyfriend," said Van hoping that it wouldn't happen. "I will see what I could do in a way that she wouldn't suspect something, but I can't promise anything," said Fiona grinning a bit at the thought. "No you wouldn't. You would probably help her," said Van a little offended. "Probably," said Fiona laughing a little. Van then grabbed a nearby pillow and threw it at Fiona. Fiona was laughing and she didn't see it and it hit her in the face. Van was laughing a little at this. Fiona was mad now but also a little amused at what he did. She then grabbed the pillow and threw it right back at him. This time he was the one that got hit in the face. "This means war," said Van with a laugh.
"Hello, Mrs. Annette. I was wondering if Fiona was there," said Moonbay on the phone. "I am sorry but she is at a friends house, and by the time I don't think she will be home for a while," said Fiona's mother. "Ok thanks," said Moonbay as she hung up the phone. "Again? Why is it that Fiona never talks about this person yet she is almost always with this person when she is not with me? So why is it that I don't know who the person is?" Moonbay asked nobody. "I wonder if Irvine knows. He probably doesn't because most of the time when I ask a question that has to deal with it then he also ignores it or tried to change the subject. So I guess that he has to know," said Moonbay as she picked up the phone and dialed in Irvine's number.
"Hello," said Irvine when he picked up the ringing phone. "Alright. You are going to answer a question that I have," Moonbay shouted into the phone. Irvine held the receiver away from his ear but it was still loud enough. 'Here comes that question again,' thought Irvine already knowing what Moonbay was going to ask him. "Who is this friend of Fiona's? I know that you know so don't you dare deny it, or try to change the subject because I know that you know who it is," yelled Moonbay. Irvine still had the receiver away from his ear yet he was able to hear what she had said very clearly. Irvine put the phone to his ear and trying to change his voice he said, "I am sorry but you must have the wrong number," said Irvine hoping that it would fool her. "Don't try and play tricks with me because I know for a fact that this is the right number," said Moonbay making Irvine pull the receiver away from his ear once again. Irvine cringed at his luck but he knew that this was something that was up to Fiona to tell Moonbay. "I can't tell you that. It is up to Fiona to tell you, and she isn't telling anyone. I only know because I happened to come across and V. and her friend," said Irvine hitting himself for almost giving it away. "What? Am I not a friend to her if she won't tell me?" asked Moonbay sounding very offended when she said this. "She has her reasons. If you want to know then just ask her. It is her decision if she wants you to know," said Irvine knowing his friend was slightly upset. "Fine I will ask her but not now. Right now I will keep an eye out for anything that will give me clues so that I now she can't lie if I guess right on who it is because it is easy to tell if she is lying most of the time. She never talks about it so that makes it so she isn't lying. I will figure it out though," said Moonbay with a slight laugh. Irvine gave a nervous chuckle knowing that it wasn't going to turn out too well.
Fiona's eye slowly started to open. Taking one look around the room she realized that she was still at Van's place. She looked towards a window and realized that the sun was already coming up. The she felt someone's arm wrapped around her. It definitely frightened her a little bit. She turned her head and saw Van right next sleeping to her. 'We must have accidentally fallen asleep,' thought Fiona in a panic. She quickly got up. She was about to start walking towards the door to go home but she ended up looking back at Van who was sleeping very peacefully. She noticed a piece of hair had fallen in front of his face. She reached out and moved it aside. 'What the heck am I thinking?' Fiona asked her quickly pulling away. She quickly turned around and walked out of the door. Fiona quickly walked out of the house without seeing anybody. 'We just got exhausted with how much fun we were having. That has to be it,' Fiona told herself mentally as she walked down the street towards her home. 'Yeah. That is it. It is really nothing,' She told herself as she walked towards her house.
Fiona had just enough time to go home and get dressed before she had to leave for school. 'If I happen to see Van today, then I just won't bring up what happened last night. It isn't like it meant anything,' Fiona told herself. For some reason Fiona could hear a voice in the back of her head saying, 'Denial.' "I am not. It meant nothing and I am sure of that. Van must think so as well if he even knows what had happened," she said. She just kept walking not really wanting to go back to school for some reason. She turned a corner and ran into Van. "Um, hi Van," said Fiona who was a little surprised by his sudden appearance. "Uh hi," said Van a little nervously. "Um Fiona. About last night," said Van looking at the ground. 'Wasn't he asleep when I left?' Fiona asked herself. "So you know," said Fiona a little nervously. "Yeah. I woke up to see you leaving my room this morning. It didn't really take me that long after that for me to be able to figure out what happened," said Van rubbing the back of his neck. "I see," said Fiona quietly. "It meant nothing. We just wore ourselves out because of the little pillow fight and then we accidentally fell asleep. Besides we are friends. So it shouldn't matter too much," said Fiona with a smile. "Yeah. You are right," said Van with a smile. The two then separated and went different ways to get to school. 'It was just an accident. I have to remember that,' Fiona told herself.
"Where were you Van? I dropped by your house to give you a lift to school but you had already left. I drove around to find you on the normal route that you take but you weren't there either," said Amy with a small pout when Van had reached the school. "There was something that I needed to do so I was forced to take a different route. Is that a problem?" asked Van with a smile. "No. I suppose not," said Amy smiling back. "Good. Now I have to go or I will be late for class again," said Van as he started to walk off. "Hey. Wait up. We have the same homeroom. Don't you remember?" asked Amy laughing a little bit. "Oh yeah. I almost forgot," said Van with a slight chuckle. "I swear that at times you can be hopeless," said Amy as she reached up and kissed Van. "We had better hurry," said Van. "Hey wait look who it is," said Amy spotting Moonbay clearly waiting for Fiona. She then walked off. 'Not again,' thought Van with a sigh, as he knew what was about to happen.
"About time that you got here Fiona," said Moonbay happily when Fiona walked into the school. "Yeah. I can't wait to see how today goes. I hope that it is going to be much better then yesterday," said Fiona happily. "It will trust me. It will be one of the best," said Moonbay happily. "I am sure that it will be," said Fiona with a smile. "It will be torture for the rest of us," came Amy's voice. "Then again everyday that you are here is torture," said Amy with a smirk on her face. "I think that you may have it the wrong way. Any day that you are around is a day of pure suffering," said Moonbay grinning right back at her. "In case you haven't realized. I am the popular one and you two are the losers," said Amy with the grin back on her face. "Nobody besides you and your friends have too much of a problem with us. There is a lot of people who have a big problem with you and your snot nosed attitude," said Moonbay making the grin on Amy's face go away. "I know you wish that that was true but we both know that it is wrong," said Moonbay walking. "Oh by the way I am sure that you will be upset to hear that you won't be able to pick on Fiona in your history class anymore because she was able to switch the class," yelled Moonbay after her. "Yeah. I am real upset at such wonderful news," said Amy sarcastically before she disappeared into their homeroom. "She really needs to get a reality check that the world doesn't revolve around her," said Moonbay angrily watching her retreating form for any sign that she wanted another round. "Calm down Moonbay. It does no good for you to do anything here," said Fiona in an attempt to calm Moonbay down. Moonbay just grunted. "Come on we have to get to class," said Moonbay trying to stay calm. She then calmly walked away leaving Fiona. "Hey, wait up for me," yelled Fiona running after her friend.
"Welcome Fiona. I am happy that you somehow managed to get into my class," said Dr. D when Fiona came in for the first bell class. "I am happy to be here," said Fiona with a smile. "I wouldn't doubt it one bit. That Prozen is someone that gets on the nerves of most of us teachers as well as the students," said Dr. D with a smile. "You came at a good time too. If you sit down then I am going to tell you of what is going to be happening," said Dr. D with a smile. Fiona went and sat down in a seat next to Moonbay. She looked around and saw that Thomas and Irvine were in here as well as Van and Moonbay. "I know that it is only the second day of school but I have a project that I am sure most of you will have fun with," said Dr. D happily. "We are going to be working in groups of two for this," he continued. Moonbay immediately tried to pair up with her best friend Fiona for this. "Hold it Moonbay. I have chosen the partners that we are going to be having for this project," said Dr. D, which happened to upset many people in the room. "Alright. Here are the partners," said Dr. D as she started to name off different students and their partners. "Irvine. and Moonbay. Van. and Fiona," said Dr. D as he named off names on the list. Moonbay's eyes seemed to fly out of their sockets once she heard this. Many in the class gasped knowing that this was not going to be pretty with two enemies having to work with each other. Van's head shot up in shock of what he had just heard as wells as Fiona's. They just stared at each other in a way that made everyone think that they hated the mere thought about what they had to do but they were actually a bit happy about this.
"Why does school have to start so early in the morning?" Van asked with a yawn as he walked out of the door to his house. "It wouldn't be too bad if I could get a little extra sleep. Then I might make it on time once in a while. It isn't my fault if I ignore my alarm clock," muttered Van as he stuck his hands in his pockets. "Sure it is. You are the one that is ignoring it," said Irvine from right behind Van. "Shut up. I don't feel like arguing this early in the morning," muttered Van as he kicked a stone that was by his feet. "I heard you stayed home again for the summer when your girlfriend invited you to go with her," said Irvine with a grin at what was going through his mind. "So what?" asked Van suspiciously. "You didn't by any chance stay because of Fiona did you?" asked Irvine grinning more. "So what? She is a friend. I was just keeping her company," said Van eyeing Irvine. "I don't mean like that," said Irvine grinning even more if it was actually possible with how much he was grinning at that moment. "Huh?" asked Van for a moment before realizing what he was saying. "Nothing like that you pervert," yelled Van in Irvine's face. "Sure, sure," said Irvine in a tone that told Van he wasn't believing a word that Van said. "We are not like that," Van yelled again. "We're just friends," said Van calming down again. "Yeah, sure, and that is why you are getting so defensive over all of this?" said Irvine with the grin still on his face. 'Why do I even bother?' Van asked himself knowing that Irvine wasn't even listening. "Are you even listening to a word that I have been saying?" asked Van a bit angrily. "Sorry, but what did you just say?" asked Irvine still smirking. "Never mind," muttered Van. Irvine then started to run in front and was soon out of sight. Van was slightly glad about this because he wouldn't have to listen to Irvine by now.
"By the way how did your trip go Moonbay?" asked Fiona with a smile. "It was awesome going to those beautiful islands with all of the beaches. I wish that you could have been there. Then it would have been the best vacation ever," said Moonbay with a smile. "Why didn't you come anyways? I invited you and you refused it," said Moonbay looking at Fiona. "I would have but there were some things that I wanted to do here. Sorry if I disappointed you," said Fiona apologetically. "You are right that you disappointed me," said Moonbay with a fake pout. Then the both of them started to laugh. "So, what classes do you have this year?" asked Moonbay curiously. The annoyed look that Fiona had on her face was not too reassuring to Moonbay. Fiona reached into her backpack and pulled out her schedule. She handed it to Moonbay and Moonbay looked it over and cringed at just reading it. "Someone must be out to get you all of the years. Having Prozen for a teacher all of your years must count as cruel and unusual punishment," said Moonbay noting that Fiona had Prozen again. "Do you think that someone is out to make you suffer?" asked Moonbay. "Ok stupid question," said Moonbay seeing the weird look that Fiona was giving her. "Come on. We have to hurry up or we are going to be late," said Fiona as she started to walk a little faster and Moonbay followed right behind her.
It was very peaceful and quiet for Van at the moment. He was enjoying it a lot but it had to be interrupted when a car pulled up right next to him. "Hey there Van," came the voice of Van's girlfriend Amy. Van put on a smile and turned towards her. "Hey there," said Van. "I am surprised to see you up this early and not running to the school at the last moment," said Amy with a slight giggle. "My parents are making sure that I don't continue to be late to school this year because they want to see me get into a good college next year," said Van. "I see. Do you need a ride?" asked Amy with a smile. "I think that I am going to walk," said Van. "Oh no you don't," said Amy grabbing his arm and pulling him into the passengers seat. "I haven't seen you all summer and I want to spend some time with you," said Amy wrapping herself around his arm. "If you weren't going to take no for an answer then why did you even bother asking me if I needed a ride?" asked Van laughing a bit nervously. She actually seemed to think it over for a second before shrugging her shoulders and then starting to speed the car down the road. "That was one of the best vacations I ever had, but just one thing Van. Why is it that you never want to come with me on vacation anymore?" asked Amy with a fake pout. "I just didn't feel like it. Is there something wrong with just wanting to stay home for once?" asked Van curiously. "Yes there is because you have done it for the past few summers. All I want to do is spend a little bit of time with you, but you just won't come with me on my vacations," pouted Amy. Van in a way couldn't help but feel a little bad. "How about I make it up to you?" asked Van a little nervous. "That would be great," said Amy happily. 'Somehow I know I am going to regret this,' thought Van. Van then spotted Fiona and Moonbay walking towards the school. However Amy did as well. "Great. That is the last thing that I wanted to see on the first day of school," muttered Amy clearly annoyed to see them. "Just leave them alone," said Van with his head in his hands. "Are you taking their side now?" asked Amy looking at Van hard. "No. I just don't feel like getting into this, this early in the morning," muttered Van. Amy seemed to be happy by this. "You are right," said Amy with a smile. "I will leave them alone. At least for now," she said happily. 'Thank god,' thought Van in relief.
"Oh great look who is coming," said Moonbay spotting Amy's car. "I really don't feel like dealing with her right now," said Moonbay angrily. She was prepared for when Amy stopped to insult them like she took every chance to do. It didn't come however. Moonbay looked confused when they just drove right past them. "That was just a little strange. She didn't even try to stop to make fun of us. I wonder why she didn't do anything," said Moonbay a little startled. Fiona didn't say it but she knew that Van had something to do with it because she saw him in the car as well. "What does it matter? likes just go before she comes back to try her luck," said Fiona calmly. "That is a really good idea. I don't want it to happen before school starts, because if she insults us then I will insult her back and she won't be able to retaliate with anything except for words," said Moonbay with a slight laugh. "You think so?" asked Fiona looking at Moonbay curiously. "I know so. She may be cozy with a lot of the teachers and a good student so they respect her but if she got in a fight or something than they will have to use discipline," said Moonbay with a smirk on her face. Fiona couldn't help but laugh a little bit. "Sure it works both ways as well but as long as we can keep our composure then everything would be alright," said Moonbay happily.
'Thank you god,' thought Van after they had passed Fiona and Moonbay. 'That bought them a little time to try to find some ways out of a future argument for the day. Although that I am positive that that is a physical impossibility. If they could then I would definitely be happy, because I am very tired of all of the arguing that goes on between these two,' thought Van. He let off a sigh of relief. "Something wrong? Having second doubts about not picking on them right now?" asked Amy with a smirk. "No it isn't that. It is just I really don't want to be going back to school at the moment," said Van sighing again. "It isn't that bad," said Amy happily. "Maybe not for you but for me it is a little bit harder," said Van laying back in his seat. "Hey. Do you think that you can let me out? I want to walk the rest of the way," said Van hoping that she would agree. "Fine, but you had better get there soon," said Amy stopping the car. "Thanks. I will see you later," said Van giving her a kiss before starting to walk with her driving off.
"How long do you think it is going to take before she tries something?" asked Fiona as her and Moonbay were walking through the halls towards their homeroom. Moonbay merely looked at her watch. "I would have to say in another minute or two. You know that she just can't resist a moment that she could use to insult us. I mean it is like a daily tradition. A tradition that would be better if someone broke it. Who knows though. maybe with a little luck she will decide to just ignore us for the entire year. Yet that won't be possible and we both know that," muttered Moonbay half- heartedly. "It is always good to at least dream about such a wonderful life though," said Fiona as she opened up her locker. Nothing was said while she placed her things in her locker for the year. Fiona closed her locker and both her and Moonbay started to walk again towards their homeroom. Fiona noticed that Moonbay was too quiet for her normal self. "Some thing wrong?" asked Fiona looking at Moonbay. Moonbay came out of her quietness. "No. I was just thinking," was all that Moonbay said. "About what?" asked Fiona curiously. "I was just thinking about ways that I could annoy Amy and not get in trouble for it," said Moonbay with a huge smirk on her face. Fiona couldn't help but laugh at Moonbay's little statement. "Come on. We had better get to homeroom," said Fiona laughing just a little.
The two of them walked into the classroom to see Dr. D was already there in his teacher's desk. To her unwanted luck, Amy was there as well. Luckily she was talking to a friend. So Fiona tried to get by to the desks that Moonbay and her have had since she first came to the school. Although Amy didn't look at Fiona, Fiona knew that she knew that she was here. Sure enough as she was passing by Amy did the exact same thing she did the first day that Fiona came here. She stuck her foot out. Fiona saw it this time though and stepped over it while also making sure to step on it before she went by. Amy was immediately stood on one foot, yelling in pain as she nursed her sore foot. "Is there something wrong Amy?" asked Dr. D seeing her outburst. She then noticed everyone was looking at her. She sat down muttering, "No sir." Moonbay was on the verge of tears from this. "That is one way that you can do it," said Fiona happily when she sat down next to Moonbay. "She can't really blame you because she was the one that started it, and all that you have to do is say that it was an accident because you stepped on her outstretched leg, which she just so happened to put out while you were right next to her," said Moonbay giggling a little. "It also helps that the teacher isn't one of the ones that think of her as this perfect little woman," said Moonbay laughing again. At the moment Van came walking into the room. 'Wasn't he with Amy? So why did he come in after her? usually she will make sure that he is with her when she is at school,' thought Fiona curiously. Van looked at Amy who was still nursing her hurt foot and then he looked up at Fiona. Fiona just smiled and sat back in her seat. Van didn't bother to say anything as he took a seat next to Amy who was currently glaring at Fiona. Fiona noticed this and just smiled back at her making the woman even angrier.
"Did you see what she did to me?" asked Amy in a furious voice. "Um, no. I came in after it all happened. I only knew that something happened when I saw you holding your foot and glaring at her," said Van with a shrug of his shoulders. "She stepped on my foot and I am sure that it was on purpose," said Amy with a pout. "How did that happened?" asked Van barely able to control himself from laughing at it. "All I tried to do was trip her. That is all," said Amy still pouting. "Didn't you try to do that before?" asked Van as he seemed to remember her talking about something like that. "The first day that she came to this school," said Amy. "Didn't she do something similar that day as well?" asked Van trying to remember. "Yeah. She pulled my chair out from under me when she fell to the floor," said Amy still a bit angry. "If you knew that something like that was going to end up happening, then why did you do it again?" asked a curious Van. "I didn't think that she would do anything this time," said Amy with a pout. "Think it over a bit next time and things might turn out a little better," said Van. "I will try," said Amy as she reached up and kissed him.
"I think. That I am going to hurl," said Moonbay upon seeing the two kissing. She even went as far as running to a trashcan and faking throwing up to make her point. Fiona couldn't help but laugh at her friend's antics. "I realize that you are poor but eating out of the trash is just unsanitary. I feel bad for the bugs that live in it to be near your face," said Amy seeing Moonbay faking throwing up. "They would run for their lives out of horror of seeing you face in a ten feet radius," said Moonbay knowing that this was going to be fun. "At least I don't kill them with just my looks alone," said Amy with a smirk. "You are right. You don't kill them. You make them go through a fate worse then death that makes them want to die," said Moonbay with a smirk. Amy scowled before walking away with a scowl on her face. "Moonbay one, Amy zero," said Moonbay with a grin on her face.
"If looks could kill then I would definitely be dead by now," muttered Fiona seeing that Amy was still glaring at her. "You would have been dead a long time ago with how many times she has glared at you like that. Beside isn't that our mission? To make her that mad?" asked Moonbay with a slight grin. "That is your mission, but I must admit that it is definitely fun to do at times," said Fiona knowing that it was the truth. "I know what you mean. I would do it more often but she has Prozen looking after her so it is much harder to get away with anything when he is within a mile radius," said Moonbay with a slight laugh. "Sometime this year I will get even with both of them for all that annoying and pointless things that they have done to us," said Moonbay with a grin which kind of frightened Fiona a little. "Don't go over your head when you do, do that," said Fiona with a nervous laugh. "If I get in trouble then so be it, but I will make sure that the both of them are going to pay," said Moonbay with the grin still on. "Whatever you say," said Fiona before walking off to go to her first class.
While Moonbay was walking towards her classroom she saw something that seemed to make her laugh a lot. There was Thomas and he seemed to be talking to his locker about something. "You know it is pointless to talk to a locker because they can't respond," said Moonbay with a slight laugh. Thomas turned around to look at her and blushed in embarrassment at being caught. "Why not just ask her? It will help you out a great deal better instead of asking a locker out," said Moonbay with a slight giggle. "I-I don't think that I can do it. What if I mess up?" asked Thomas. "Also I am not sure that she would even want to go out with me," said Thomas quietly. "Awfully negative about what she is going to say. Try asking and maybe things will go your way," said Moonbay with a grin. "You two really are pathetic," came a voice that both knew so well. "I guess a geek will attract a geek," said Amy with a smirk. "Who asked you?" Moonbay yelled into her face. "Temper, temper. I was only telling a fact," said Amy with a smirk. "Well no asked you to voice you opinion. While we're voicing our opinions, I guess I will say what I think. I think you are a stuck up woman who only gets what she wants because she goes crying to daddy every time. You no conscience about other peoples feeling, so that just makes it worse," Moonbay yelled into Amy's face. What happened next only made Moonbay even angrier. Amy just smirked at her. "Are you done yet? I really don't care what you think because I am much better than you, and that you are saying if from a person that could only wish to be someone like me," said Amy with a grin. "Me want to be like you? That is the biggest load of rubbish that I have ever heard in my life. The day that I would want to be like you is. well never actually. I would rather kill myself than ever be like you," Moonbay yelled back. Amy just smiled and turned away and walked in the direction that Fiona went. "Stuck up snob," muttered Moonbay before she walked in the direction of her next class.
'Figures that the one class that I hate the most would have to be the first period of the day. They are out to ruin my life. Why not just keep ruining the rest of the day for me as a start?' Fiona thought to herself as she quietly walked towards her most dreaded place in the world. "Out of my way freak," said Amy as she shoved her way past Fiona. "Better a freak then a snot nosed brat," muttered Fiona under her breath. "What was that?" asked Amy angrily as she got right into Fiona's face. "I said that it is better to be a freak then a snot nosed brat," Fiona said right back to her. Van happened to be walking by at that moment. 'Sometimes those two need to give it a break. They are always at each other's throats. I hate to admit it but sometimes Fiona has to know when to stop. So does Amy as well. If they don't stop then one is going to eventually do something to the other. I wish this will all end,' thought Van with a look of exhaust on his face. "Van honey. Did you hear what she said?" pouted Amy as she wrapped herself around him. Van gave both of them looks that clearly said that he didn't want to get involved in the argument. "That's right go running to you boyfriend when you know that you can't win. Stop making others do your job and do things on your own," said an annoyed Fiona. Amy grunted before turning around still latched to Van. "Come on Van," said Amy pulling him. He didn't move. "What are you doing? Planning to go with her?" asked Amy angrily. "No. It is just that my class is in the other direction," said Van pointing down the opposite way. "Oh right," said Amy with a embarrassed laugh. She immediately let go of Van. "I guess I will se you later then," said Amy as she kissed him. Fiona just rolled her eyes and walked past them to her first class. 'What did I ever do to get a life like this? I have always been a good person. So why is it that I can't seem to live a more peaceful life?' Fiona asked herself.
There it was. The one door that she had to continue walking through for the past four years to her most hated class. It also happened to be the class that seemed to hate her the most. She slowly reached for the handle but was once again shoved aside by Amy as she opened the door and walked through saying things to Fiona like how she needs to watch where she is standing. "I didn't know that it was illegal to stand," Fiona mumbled to herself. She then opened the door and walked into the room. She was immediately looked at by Prozen. "Why is it that I can't seem to get rid of you?" Prozen asked staring at her hard. "How should I know? I am not the one that makes the schedules. If I did then I wouldn't be caught dead in this class," said Fiona in a dull voice. She then started to walk to an open seat. "You had better watch what you say around me," Prozen said after her. Amy then walked up to him. "Mr. Prozen it is a pleasure to see you again," said Amy in a polite voice. "It is always a pleasure to teach you," said Prozen in a voice that he always used when it came to Amy. 'Shoot me. Just shoot me now,' thought Fiona as her head hit the desk.
'Why is it that I keep getting stuck here every year most people get new teachers every year, yet I continue to get the same one. One of the people that hates me the most,' thought Fiona as she listened to a boring lecture from Prozen. She was also unlucky because Amy was in the same class again as well. Unlike the first year, Fiona learned to keep behind her so that she couldn't do anything serious. "Are you listening to what I am saying Fiona?" asked Prozen from the front of the class. "Yes sir," said Fiona in a very bored tone. "Just like the last fifty times you have asked that same question," Fiona continued to say. Prozen glared at her before turning around. 'I wonder if they would let me transfer classes,' thought Fiona. A while ago Fiona learned that Prozen didn't do as much if you showed that you didn't really care about what he does. It didn't stop him from giving her a detention every once in a while. Most likely Amy had requested a lot of them. 'Those two have been out to get me for years. I really want to get out of this class,' thought Fiona sadly.
'This day is almost exactly like the first day I went to this school. Sometimes I wish that Amy would suddenly drop off the face of this planet with Prozen right behind her. That way I wouldn't have to listen to them,' thought Fiona as she picked up some food for her lunch. "Hey there Fiona," came Thomas's voice. "Oh, hello Thomas," said Fiona with a smile. "Um, well I was wondering if I could talk to you about something?" asked Thomas rather nervously. "I guess," said Fiona nicely. Thomas didn't say anything for a few moments. "What is it Thomas?" asked Fiona seeing how nervous he was. "Well. You see," said Thomas but he was cut off because Moonbay broke in. "Hey there you two. How are my two good friends doing?" asked Moonbay with a grin. "A little annoyed by my schedule but just fine," said Fiona with a smile. Fiona then turned back to Thomas. "What is it you wanted to say Thomas?" asked Fiona with a smile. "Never mind," said Thomas with a sigh of defeat. "Come on. I have a table saved for us," said Moonbay as she pulled on the two barely giving them time to pay for their lunch.
"Come on Fiona. cheer up. Just think this absolutely wonderful thought. If you can live through this year then you won't have to see either of them ever again as long as you don't end up going to the same college as Amy," said Moonbay with a slight laugh just trying to cheer her friend up. "Too bad you don't have the same class as me. Dr. D is hilarious at some of the things that he does to help us learn. Fiona then seemed to brighten up a little bit. Moonbay seemed to notice this a little. "What's up with you. Weren't you just upset a minute ago?" asked Moonbay eyeing her friend suspiciously. "I have something that I am going to try to do. I will see you later," said Fiona happily as she ran off away from Moonbay. "Hey wait up," yelled Moonbay running after her. "What?" asked Fiona when Moonbay had caught up. "What are you planning to do?" asked Moonbay looking at Fiona. "Isn't it obvious?" asked Fiona happily. "No, not really," said Moonbay unable to think of anything. "What I am going to try to do is get out of that class and try to get into your class," said Fiona with a smile. "Good luck with that. I have tried to do that with a different class and they wouldn't do that," said Moonbay dully. "We'll see," said Fiona happily.
"No," said the woman that was behind the desk in the office. "But why?" asked a disheartened Fiona. "We try to go by the scheduled that we make at the beginning of the school year," said the woman. "I have had this teacher for every year that I have been here. He has given things like detentions for no reason. Blamed me for things that I didn't do," said Fiona trying to persuade the woman. "I said no," said the woman. "You know. I might be able to learn a lot more if I was to remain in the class a lot more. Prozen sends me out way so much that it makes it hard for me to keep up with the rest of the class," Fiona said in as much need as possible. The woman actually seemed to be considering it for a little while. She then just shook her head. "I can't do that," said the woman. "You are in charge of what classes we are in. I am sure that you can do something. I mean you are such a wonderful person. I am sure of that," said Fiona with a smile. 'If nothing else works then I guess I can just try flattery,' thought Fiona as she smiled. "Anyways. The students would definitely give you more respect if you were to do this," said Fiona. The woman definitely seemed a little flattered by what Fiona was saying. What came next made Fiona smile a little. "I will see what I can do," said the woman. "Thank you," said Fiona happily.
"I do not know how you did it Fiona. I have tried it for years and she hasn't even thought twice about saying no," said Moonbay impress by what Fiona did. "She is a nice person, but she does her job seriously. All I did was work hard and I got her to do it for me. although she said that I was a special occasion and that she wouldn't do it for anyone else," said Fiona happily. "Bummer," said Moonbay upset to hear that part. "At least now you will be in my class," said Moonbay happily. "I bet Amy will be terribly disappointed to have me leave the class. I wonder if she had anything to do with me being put in that class four years in a row," said Fiona in deep thought. "Wouldn't surprise me if she did it just so she could pick on you because Prozen won't do anything to her," said Moonbay with a slight laugh. "I already knew that," said Fiona with a smile. "I bet that he will be just as ruthless even though you are out of his class now," said Moonbay a little nervous. "No. he will probably be worse," said Fiona with a shudder at the mere thought. "Starting tomorrow I will be free from Prozen," said Fiona happily. "You are definitely not going to regret doing this. The old man is really good at teaching when he actually makes sense of what he is talking about. Most of the time he talks way too complicated that it make it hard for us to be able to understand what he is talk about," said Moonbay with a laugh. "Plus we do a lot of fun projects," Moonbay continued. "I could hate it for all I care. Just as long as I am away from Prozen I am happy. If the class happened to be a fun class I am getting into then that is just an added bonus," said Fiona with a smile. "Time to have a little fun," said Moonbay grinning. "I am sure that it won't be a little but a lot more fun," said Fiona happily now that she was away from that horrid class.
"Hey that is the same class that I am in," said Van later on in the day once Fiona had mentioned what she had managed to do. "Really?" asked Fiona happily. "Yeah. It is one of my favorites because I am actually able to relax a little in the class and not have Amy hanging all over me like she usually does," said Van with a slight chuckle. "Is his class really that fun?" asked Fiona curiously. "Sure. My favorite out of all of my classes," said Van with a shrug of his shoulders. "I am lucky that I didn't have Prozen for all of these years but I feel really bad for you," said Van with sympathy in his voice. "I am away from him now and that is all that matters," said Fiona happily. "Moonbay says that sometime this year that she is going to try to do something to him to make up for all of the detentions that he has given her and me in these fours years," said Fiona with a smile. "That is something that I would pay to see," said Van laughing at all the thoughts that were going through his head about what he thought might happen to Prozen. "I agree with Moonbay. He definitely needs to have something done to him. you aren't the only person he picks on. He has been picking on anyone that does even the slightest mistake so that he can have his fun. I have been on the receiving end of his punishments a number of times," said Van with a smirk. "I am curious as to what she is planning," said Fiona as she thought hard about it. "It had better be something really good because if it isn't then people that don't like him are going to be mad at her as well as myself," said Van. "Knowing Moonbay it is definitely something that if you knew it was going to happen, you would want to stay clear of anything that she might have gotten her hands on," said Fiona with a smile. "Wouldn't doubt it," said Van with a grin. "Moonbay can definitely be dangerous if she sets her mind on something like that. Hopefully I won't be a part of it because I am Amy's boyfriend," said Van hoping that it wouldn't happen. "I will see what I could do in a way that she wouldn't suspect something, but I can't promise anything," said Fiona grinning a bit at the thought. "No you wouldn't. You would probably help her," said Van a little offended. "Probably," said Fiona laughing a little. Van then grabbed a nearby pillow and threw it at Fiona. Fiona was laughing and she didn't see it and it hit her in the face. Van was laughing a little at this. Fiona was mad now but also a little amused at what he did. She then grabbed the pillow and threw it right back at him. This time he was the one that got hit in the face. "This means war," said Van with a laugh.
"Hello, Mrs. Annette. I was wondering if Fiona was there," said Moonbay on the phone. "I am sorry but she is at a friends house, and by the time I don't think she will be home for a while," said Fiona's mother. "Ok thanks," said Moonbay as she hung up the phone. "Again? Why is it that Fiona never talks about this person yet she is almost always with this person when she is not with me? So why is it that I don't know who the person is?" Moonbay asked nobody. "I wonder if Irvine knows. He probably doesn't because most of the time when I ask a question that has to deal with it then he also ignores it or tried to change the subject. So I guess that he has to know," said Moonbay as she picked up the phone and dialed in Irvine's number.
"Hello," said Irvine when he picked up the ringing phone. "Alright. You are going to answer a question that I have," Moonbay shouted into the phone. Irvine held the receiver away from his ear but it was still loud enough. 'Here comes that question again,' thought Irvine already knowing what Moonbay was going to ask him. "Who is this friend of Fiona's? I know that you know so don't you dare deny it, or try to change the subject because I know that you know who it is," yelled Moonbay. Irvine still had the receiver away from his ear yet he was able to hear what she had said very clearly. Irvine put the phone to his ear and trying to change his voice he said, "I am sorry but you must have the wrong number," said Irvine hoping that it would fool her. "Don't try and play tricks with me because I know for a fact that this is the right number," said Moonbay making Irvine pull the receiver away from his ear once again. Irvine cringed at his luck but he knew that this was something that was up to Fiona to tell Moonbay. "I can't tell you that. It is up to Fiona to tell you, and she isn't telling anyone. I only know because I happened to come across and V. and her friend," said Irvine hitting himself for almost giving it away. "What? Am I not a friend to her if she won't tell me?" asked Moonbay sounding very offended when she said this. "She has her reasons. If you want to know then just ask her. It is her decision if she wants you to know," said Irvine knowing his friend was slightly upset. "Fine I will ask her but not now. Right now I will keep an eye out for anything that will give me clues so that I now she can't lie if I guess right on who it is because it is easy to tell if she is lying most of the time. She never talks about it so that makes it so she isn't lying. I will figure it out though," said Moonbay with a slight laugh. Irvine gave a nervous chuckle knowing that it wasn't going to turn out too well.
Fiona's eye slowly started to open. Taking one look around the room she realized that she was still at Van's place. She looked towards a window and realized that the sun was already coming up. The she felt someone's arm wrapped around her. It definitely frightened her a little bit. She turned her head and saw Van right next sleeping to her. 'We must have accidentally fallen asleep,' thought Fiona in a panic. She quickly got up. She was about to start walking towards the door to go home but she ended up looking back at Van who was sleeping very peacefully. She noticed a piece of hair had fallen in front of his face. She reached out and moved it aside. 'What the heck am I thinking?' Fiona asked her quickly pulling away. She quickly turned around and walked out of the door. Fiona quickly walked out of the house without seeing anybody. 'We just got exhausted with how much fun we were having. That has to be it,' Fiona told herself mentally as she walked down the street towards her home. 'Yeah. That is it. It is really nothing,' She told herself as she walked towards her house.
Fiona had just enough time to go home and get dressed before she had to leave for school. 'If I happen to see Van today, then I just won't bring up what happened last night. It isn't like it meant anything,' Fiona told herself. For some reason Fiona could hear a voice in the back of her head saying, 'Denial.' "I am not. It meant nothing and I am sure of that. Van must think so as well if he even knows what had happened," she said. She just kept walking not really wanting to go back to school for some reason. She turned a corner and ran into Van. "Um, hi Van," said Fiona who was a little surprised by his sudden appearance. "Uh hi," said Van a little nervously. "Um Fiona. About last night," said Van looking at the ground. 'Wasn't he asleep when I left?' Fiona asked herself. "So you know," said Fiona a little nervously. "Yeah. I woke up to see you leaving my room this morning. It didn't really take me that long after that for me to be able to figure out what happened," said Van rubbing the back of his neck. "I see," said Fiona quietly. "It meant nothing. We just wore ourselves out because of the little pillow fight and then we accidentally fell asleep. Besides we are friends. So it shouldn't matter too much," said Fiona with a smile. "Yeah. You are right," said Van with a smile. The two then separated and went different ways to get to school. 'It was just an accident. I have to remember that,' Fiona told herself.
"Where were you Van? I dropped by your house to give you a lift to school but you had already left. I drove around to find you on the normal route that you take but you weren't there either," said Amy with a small pout when Van had reached the school. "There was something that I needed to do so I was forced to take a different route. Is that a problem?" asked Van with a smile. "No. I suppose not," said Amy smiling back. "Good. Now I have to go or I will be late for class again," said Van as he started to walk off. "Hey. Wait up. We have the same homeroom. Don't you remember?" asked Amy laughing a little bit. "Oh yeah. I almost forgot," said Van with a slight chuckle. "I swear that at times you can be hopeless," said Amy as she reached up and kissed Van. "We had better hurry," said Van. "Hey wait look who it is," said Amy spotting Moonbay clearly waiting for Fiona. She then walked off. 'Not again,' thought Van with a sigh, as he knew what was about to happen.
"About time that you got here Fiona," said Moonbay happily when Fiona walked into the school. "Yeah. I can't wait to see how today goes. I hope that it is going to be much better then yesterday," said Fiona happily. "It will trust me. It will be one of the best," said Moonbay happily. "I am sure that it will be," said Fiona with a smile. "It will be torture for the rest of us," came Amy's voice. "Then again everyday that you are here is torture," said Amy with a smirk on her face. "I think that you may have it the wrong way. Any day that you are around is a day of pure suffering," said Moonbay grinning right back at her. "In case you haven't realized. I am the popular one and you two are the losers," said Amy with the grin back on her face. "Nobody besides you and your friends have too much of a problem with us. There is a lot of people who have a big problem with you and your snot nosed attitude," said Moonbay making the grin on Amy's face go away. "I know you wish that that was true but we both know that it is wrong," said Moonbay walking. "Oh by the way I am sure that you will be upset to hear that you won't be able to pick on Fiona in your history class anymore because she was able to switch the class," yelled Moonbay after her. "Yeah. I am real upset at such wonderful news," said Amy sarcastically before she disappeared into their homeroom. "She really needs to get a reality check that the world doesn't revolve around her," said Moonbay angrily watching her retreating form for any sign that she wanted another round. "Calm down Moonbay. It does no good for you to do anything here," said Fiona in an attempt to calm Moonbay down. Moonbay just grunted. "Come on we have to get to class," said Moonbay trying to stay calm. She then calmly walked away leaving Fiona. "Hey, wait up for me," yelled Fiona running after her friend.
"Welcome Fiona. I am happy that you somehow managed to get into my class," said Dr. D when Fiona came in for the first bell class. "I am happy to be here," said Fiona with a smile. "I wouldn't doubt it one bit. That Prozen is someone that gets on the nerves of most of us teachers as well as the students," said Dr. D with a smile. "You came at a good time too. If you sit down then I am going to tell you of what is going to be happening," said Dr. D with a smile. Fiona went and sat down in a seat next to Moonbay. She looked around and saw that Thomas and Irvine were in here as well as Van and Moonbay. "I know that it is only the second day of school but I have a project that I am sure most of you will have fun with," said Dr. D happily. "We are going to be working in groups of two for this," he continued. Moonbay immediately tried to pair up with her best friend Fiona for this. "Hold it Moonbay. I have chosen the partners that we are going to be having for this project," said Dr. D, which happened to upset many people in the room. "Alright. Here are the partners," said Dr. D as she started to name off different students and their partners. "Irvine. and Moonbay. Van. and Fiona," said Dr. D as he named off names on the list. Moonbay's eyes seemed to fly out of their sockets once she heard this. Many in the class gasped knowing that this was not going to be pretty with two enemies having to work with each other. Van's head shot up in shock of what he had just heard as wells as Fiona's. They just stared at each other in a way that made everyone think that they hated the mere thought about what they had to do but they were actually a bit happy about this.
