Disclaimer: I do not own The Covenant...only Marnee and the plot. Enjoy and please review...i might not be able to post any new chapters for awhile due to my play rehearsals. But I will try to get a new one out soon!


History and an Invite

After changing into the uniform of a blue plaid skirt, white button-up shirt, blue vest, tie, blazer and knee socks, the trio of girls were ready to leave. They all said by to Marnee's mom, who was also leaving to go to her new apartment.

They were all having a fun time talking when the bell rang, causing Kate and Sarah to groan.

"Great, we're late…I hope we don't get detention." grumbled Kate.

"We won't get detention."

Sarah and Kate looked at Marnee like she had just sprouted an extra head. Marnee looked back at her new friends, smiling at the weird looks they were giving her.

"What do you mean we won't? You feeling o.k. Mar?" Sarah went to feel Marnee's head and all three girls laughed when Marnee batted her hand away.

"Yeah…you heard me. We won't get detention. Just tell Mr. Johnson about me being the new transfer and how you helped me find the class since I didn't know where it was." Marnee said with a "duh" look on her face.

Smiles and more laughs were shared when Kate and Sarah realized their new friend was right. They made their way to the classroom and entered, immediately pinned by the other student's stares.

"Ahh…Miss Tunney and Miss Wenham. Decided to show up did we?" Mr. Johnson said, a glint in his eye.

"Yes we did Sir…and we brought along the new transfer student." Kate said.

Mr. Johnson's eye lost its glint after that was said. He turned to look at Marnee and sighed.

"Miss Tunney and Miss Wenham, kindly take your seats." He said and then turned to the class. "Everyone, we have a new student from California, Miss Marnee Hazelton. Miss Hazelton, Please take a seat next to Mr. Simms."

Marnee made her way up to her seat next to the boy that the teacher had pointed out. After she sat down, they both said hi and listened to Mr. Johnson drone on and on about the Civil War.

After 60 agonizing minutes later, class was finally over. Kate and Sarah stood outside of the class waiting for Marnee and Tyler.

"Marnee, this is my boyfriend Pouge Parry." Kate said after both had joined them in the hallway. "and you've already met Tyler."

"Hey there…I'm Marnee." The two shook hands and the conversation flowed easily through the group of teens.

"Well, I have art next and Pouge has Math with Caleb, and Tyler and Sarah has English. What do you have Mar?" Kate asked, kind of sad to be leaving Pouge.

"Hmm, I have A.P. Writing and Comp. with Geiger…I guess I'll see you all later." Marnee said while putting her schedule back in her blazer pocket.

"Geiger's an easy teacher…don't worry. I had her last year…piece of cake." Pouge said.

"Yeah…Hey Mar, there's a bonfire tonight. You should come with all of us. Then you can meet everyone." Sarah said, a light bulb going off in her head.

"Yeah…o.k. I suppose. I'll see you guys later." Marnee said with a little wave, heading off to her next class.

"So what do you guys think of her? Nice, right?" Kate asked after they watched her go.

"Yeah. She seems really nice and really talkative. I couldn't get her to shut up all hour!" Tyler said, making everyone laugh.

After the last class of the day was done, Marnee met up with Sarah and Kate and they walked back to their rooms. Sarah and Kate told her to get ready…they had a party to go to!
