Also: I have most of the chapters already written and did I mention that I have no idea what american high schools are like?

"Miss white it is time"

"Yes James I am up already!" Apple stretched herself and yawned for a moment, before she got up to take a shower in her personal bathroom. When she was ready she picked a dress from her walk-in closet and went to have breakfast with her parents who were already waiting at the table. "Good morning! What do we have today?"

"I have prepared a few sandwiches for you to choose from as well as Earl Grey, Darjeeling and a mixed-fruits-tea Miss White." The butler explained while holding her chair for her to sit down.

She picked a sandwich that had boiled eggs and smoked salmon on it - among other things - and asked James for a cup of the fruit-tea.

"Can you believe it? Now those gays can marry in Alabama too. Just how can the supreme court allow such an abomination in a christian country like ours?" Her father asked waving around with the newspaper.

"Really?" Apple knitted her eyebrows. "That is outrageous."

Before her parents could rant on, James interrupted the conversation by pointing out that it was time for the young lady to get ready and that he would be getting the car.

Blondie and Briar where already at the lockers, talking about something and greeted her as usual, when she spotted Raven Black in the crowd and told her friends to come with her. She found it insulting, that she had to share a school and even some classes with a lowlife like Raven, especially after she had seen her trough the window of a gay bar on some photos on her fathers computer labeled "Places of sin in our town". It was no stretch to assume that she was gay.

"Well, look if that isn't the always well dressed miss Black." Apple mocked her. "Tell us Raven, just where do you get these stylish rags?"

"Shut up Apple. I like my clothes."

Shut up? How dare you? Apple was upset, that somebody like Raven had the nerve to speak to her like this.

"Yeah? I am sure your girlfriend likes your shitty clothes too." She said spitefully and turned to her friends "Did you know she is a dyke?"

Blondie giggled and Briar looked disgusted, while Raven just looked at her like she was about to murder her and her entire family, before she ran off.

"Can you believe we have to use the same changing room as her? Gross!"
