A/N: Alright, I haven't updated this in a while. Sorry, but someone asked for me to do April and Cole in high school next. So whatever, here it is. And yes, Demi and Cole are dating.

Short Story #3: April & Cole in high school

Cole Belmonte walked out of the cafeteria at lunch time with his friends; Zane Julien, Jay Walker, Kai Bilens and Lloyd Garmadon. "Okay, I'm just saying Demi is getting on my nerves lately." Cole sighed, rubbing his forehead.

"But if you dump her she'll make your school life miserable!" Lloyd argued. "Just let her dump you."

"Nah, that's not gonna' happen anytime soon, she's in looovvveee with him!" Jay teased.

Cole grunted and folded his arms, walking ahead of the group of his friends. "You guys are real helpful." He sighed.

As the group headed down the hall, the front doors of the school opened and someone walked inside. It was a girl…

She had short black hair with a single light blue streak, blue-green eyes hidden by thin black framed glasses. She wore little make up except for pink sparkling lip gloss and an aqua & white striped cardigan sweater, white skinny jeans and light blue sneakers. She had a white backpack hanging off one of her shoulders.

The girl stopped and looked around, seeming confused and uncomfortable. 'Nerd,' was Cole's first thought.

April Dawson looked around the school's hallway, trying to figure out where to go. She was late to her first day so of course she was already off to a bad start. Her father had taken her out of boarding school and stuck her smack in a regular public school. As she looked around for someone to help her, she found a group of boys looking back at her.

Her face flushed with a light pink color as she walked ahead slowly.

"Um, hi…" she approached them, holding a few notebooks and a schedule she was given at the front office.

There was an awkward silence… "My name's April Dawson…And I-I…I'm trying to find out where Mr. Burton's Chemistry class is…" her voice was low and shy.

Zane stepped forward. "I read your file in the school office; you transferred from Xavier's Boarding School, yes?"

April nodded. "Yeah…" she adjusted her glasses.

"I am Zane Julien, part of the school council. I can help you." He shook her hand gently and looked at his friends. They just remained normal; he finally smacked Jay on the back of the head.

"Huh? Oh, I'm Jay Walker." He waved, rubbing the back of his head.

"I'm Lloyd Garmadon," the teen in green (see what I did there? Huh? Huh? Never mind -,-') waved.

"Isn't Garmadon a…dark name? I've read it somewhere in a-" April stopped, realizing she might offend the boy. "Oh…Um…What's your name?" she gestured towards the boy dressed in all black.

"Cole Belmonte," he said, barely paying attention to her.

"I'm Kai Bilens." A boy with the wildest hair she had ever seen shook her hand a bit roughly.

She let go, smiling but her hand felt slightly sore. Zane gestured for April to follow him and waved his friends off.

"Your last name is Dawson, any relation to the owner of the martial artist in the center of town?" Zane asked as they walked.

"Yeah, that's my uncle Dareth; I'm living with him since my dad's always away on business."

Zane nodded as they walked through the halls and he showed her the entire school.

A/N: Sorry if its short, I got lazy and plus I have to go check on my brother every five minutes so I didn't have time.
