New Schedule

Richelle looked at the paper in her hand. It was only her second day at school and her counselor decided to put her in a different math class. The only thing on the schedule that didn't change was her third and seventh period.

She walked into the classroom and saw a familiar face. Reynard. He waved to her with a smile on his face.

"Hello Ms. Ninovan. Welcome to Pre-Calculus. I am Mr. White," He showed her to an empty seat.

The class ended a few minutes early and Mr. White let them talk together. Reynard went over to her.

"They don't want us in Calculus until next year. They say that it would make the upper classmen embarrassed, but Arceneaux is doing it."

"That is because he's a senior."

"He's going out for the football team. The coach is letting him try out this afternoon. He still wants to play soccer, but wants to try out a new sport."

"He'll be good no matter what he does.*"

"So what was with someone named Jayson in your art class?"

"He fell out of his chair."

"You didn't…"

"I didn't do anything."

"He's a junior. He wouldn't stop talking about you," Reynard informed her "He cornered me in the restroom. Lyle doesn't like him that much."

"What is up with Lyle?"

"Reynard hesitated then said, "I'll tell you at home,"

When the bell rang, Richelle got her tings and headed for her P.E class. She changed into her uniform and left with the other girls to the track/football field. The boys were already running and the girls joined them.

"I'll take it you're not going to be in art today?" Asked a panting voice. Richelle looked over to her left. Jayson was running beside her.

"No, My schezule chanzed," she answered breathing carefully as she ran.

"That's a bummer. So where's your next class?"

"It iz in ze language department. I am taking French."

"You do? Don't you already speak it?"

"Yez, but zey put me in ze fifth year French wiz my brozerz."

"I take French. I'm a fourth year student."

"But Reynard zed zat you are a junior."

"I learned some in grade school and tested out of first year…I'll see you later," he ran to the football field with the other guys as the girls finished their final laps. **

The girls went to the long jump range. They were separated into two different groups. Half of them went to the football field with the guys as half of the guys came over. Richelle was one of the girls that stayed.

One of the boys that came over was Jayson. There was another boy that came over that was pale-white.

Mr. Lewinski began calling out the order of who would jump. The order was how good they did last time. Richelle was last on the girl's list.

Up first was the pale-looking boy named Jaspar Cullen. He stood by the end of the rack and waited.

"He's the best here. It's a wonder why he doesn't try out for the team. He's practically good at everything." Jayson informed her.

"What makes him so good zen?"

"Watch."

Jasper took a tarting positon and waited for Mr. Lewinski's signal…

Jasper was fast. It looked like he wasn't even trying his best. He nailed the jump and got a good 8 or 9 meters at the least from what Richelle could see.

After gym, Richelle found Jasper waiting for her outside the girl's locker room. He walked with her until they reached the staircase.

Her brothers were already in class when she walked in. They waited patiently for the bell to ring. Yesterday, they didn't do much in their class. It was only introductions, but it turned out just as dull. They didn't do much because they were given a long-term project, so they had free time the rest of the period.

"Jayson, really seems to like you," Reynard pointed out. Arceneaux perked up a bit. "He doesn't stop wanting to talk to you."

"He's not one of those pale-kids is he?" Arceneaux asked.

"No," Reynard answered "Why?"

"I don't trust them. I get this weird feeling about them when they pass me."

They all looked at Arceneaux cautiously

"I just don't."

The period after that was her art class. They had to draw a sculpture of a dog. The bell rang when she was nearly finished. She turned her drawing in and left the room. The next period was her lunch period. Her brothers weren't there.

She got her lunch and began to walk to an empty table when she heard her name being called. She looked around. Jayson waved at her to go and sit by him. She hesitated, but eventually went over there.

There were two tables put together with some people sitting down already. She had seen many of them down by the Fine Arts part of the school over the past few days. Two of them had red hair, some were brunettes, blondes, and there was one girl with black hair.

"these are my friends," he exclaimed. They made room for her to sit next to Jayson. "Karen and Daniel play the French horn; Jamie, Stephanie, Claire, Jake and Blade play clarinet; Don Joseph and Kim play the trumpet; Wen plays the flute; Zach and Nathan play the saxophone…" he introduced everybody "And I play the elbow."

"Richelle gave him a strange look. Everyone else just rolled their eyes…except for Blade who laughed.

"We have other friends, but they either don't sit with us, or they are in a different lunch period." He detailed.

The next period was her World Civilization class, and after that was her Chemistry class. They were using different chemicals to find out if two chemicals made a solid in them or not. The lab wasn't that exciting. Her last subject was English, and she was lost at everything when the class started. None of it made any sense to her.

The bell rang and she got up and left quickly. Reynard owed her an explanation about Lyle, and she wasn't letting him back down.

A/N: Ok, so this took forever to type up. I'm not too sure what the track records were so I just looked up online (I probably should have asked bigMac…no that's not his actual name). it's going to be a while (Maybe) until I update next. Hell week for the Spring Musical is coming up, and I'm in tech. Oh, and I probably should have said earlier, there are some inside jokes in the chapters (Some you may get others, you'd have to actually KNOW what I'm talking about). See if you can find them. Good luck!

*Arceneaux doesn't use his powers to cheat. He's just naturally good. His power is coming up next chapter, along as a few new characters.

** I just put it as them being in the same class because it would give me reason to go into something in later chapters. (and if any track and field people are reading this, I'm sorry if I mess anything up in track. I AM NOT a runner, I'm a swimmer if you do find anything wrong in later chapters about it please don't yell at me, just tell me. that goes for any other information that might be wrong. :) )
