Yeah I'm an idiot, I know. Sorry for the late-extremely update- and I hope you guys enjoy this chapter!

Chapter 2

I heard something drip. I guess that was what awoke me. My eyes fluttered open and squinted at the glare of light that nearly burned my eyeballs. I knew well enough I was lying on a bed with it's sheets tucked in tightly around me.

Okay, Amber, take deep breathes, I told myself then growled.

I don't have time to take deep breathes! I sat up and pulled out the trap like sheets.

"You're awake!" I turned and saw Nygus, the school nurse, giving me a smile. She passes me a cup of water, "drink this."

I cupped my my hands around the plastic cup and mumbled, "thank you." I took a sip from it as my eyes surveyed the room. White walls. White bed sheets. White curtains. I put the cup on the bedside table which was made out of wood. Pretty much the only pop of colour in this dreary room.

"You gave us quite a shock just now," Nygus continued as she fixed my sheets, not tucking them in too tightly as before. My eyes darted across the room, realising Nygus had said, "us."

"Us?" I asked her questioningly turning to the lady who gave me a grin, drawing back the curtains, revealing Death the Kid and the Thompson sisters, all giving me smiles.

""Yes, if it weren't for these students who knew what would have happened to you!"

I gave them a small smile, "thank you very much." Inside me however, my heart was beating fast and I could feel myself on the verge of hyperventilating. This was bad. No, getting a C on a test was bad. Getting a cut was bad. No this was worse. As the trio gave me a questionably smile, I could feel my thoughts pummel through was beyond bad.

"So what class are you in?" The golden eyed boy asked me, obviously not aware of the stares we were receiving from students in the hallway. I looked at my boots, eyes planted on the ground as I tried to not roll my eyes. My shoulder bag swaying from my shoulder.

"Your class," I replied and silently added, for two years now..

"Is that so?" Kid asked, surprise buried deep in his voice. I bit my lip and my heart felt lighter when I saw ourselves nearing 's class.

"Um thanks again.." I said when we reached the door of the class,"for saving me.." I added. Patty laughed and hugged me, "it's okay Amber~! That's what friends are for~~~" my eyes widened in shock. Not just because Patty was hugging but also because she said we were friends, I glanced at Liz and Kid who gave me smiles.

I patted Patty on the back, as bitterness began to build up within me.

We aren't friends..I thought to myself as we walked into class, Kid explaining to Dr,Stein on why we were late. Taking my seat in the middle row, sitting next to Gray who was sort of my friend. We acknowledged each other but we didn't speak unless we had to. My eyes rested on Kid and Liz and Patty who sat with Soul Eater, Maka Albarn, Black star and Tsubaki.

I took out my exercise book as I began to hurriedly jot down the notes that scrawled on the board.

We'll never be friends

I sat on the staircase, my lunch bag balancing on my lap. I didn't see the point in eating in the cafeteria. It was loud and noisy. And lonely..

Not that I care, I hurriedly thought to myself as I opened my bag and took out leftovers from yesterday. "Yo, Amber." I turned and saw Gray who gave me a small wave. I raised a questioning eyebrow at the black haired silver eyed boy.

"I heard Death the Kid saved you from the pits of the cold hard cement," he said as he went down the stairs until he was in the same stairs as me. I rolled my eyes and held back a snort.

"He would have done that to anyone," I said as I take a bite of the leftovers I packed. Gray sat down next to me, glancing at me f, the corners of his eyes.

"How cliche," he commented, turning back to the empty hallway. I nearly choked on my food.

"Excuse me?" I asked, or rather demanded,wiping my mouth. He turned back to me giving me a smirk, "you heard me."

"The main guy saves the girl. The girl's friend comes up to her and ask what's all that about and the girl will pretty much say, "he would have done that to anyway." Next thing you know, BAM, the girl falls in love the main guy and the main guy loves the girl. And all this crazy drama happens." Gray said to me. I blinked. This has to be most he's said to me in all these years we've acknowledged each other. He also said the friend word.

"We're friends?" I asked, pointing to me. Gray rolled his silver glinted eyes at me and sighed, "I tell you all about these sudden things and you ask me the ordinary stuff from the lot. Figured should start acting like a friend. I thought you'd make friends throughout the year. Looks like I was wrong."

I stuffed my container into the paper bag, losing my appetite, "yeah and you're also wrong about the falling in love thing, seriously how many high school movies and books have you read?"

"Please, I have a younger sister who's obsessed with this stuff, and you'll never know." He stood up and brushed the dirt from his black jeans, as if on cue, the bell rang, signalling the end of lunch. He climbed up the stairs to the top and stopped as he reached the last stop, turning to me he gave me a smirk.

"That's the unexpectedness of high school."
