Ember POV:
After several hours of my mom and her boyfriend fighting, my mom won, she got me enrolled immediately and said I would start on Monday. I smiled and she smiled back ruffling my dark red hair. I dyed my hair when I was 5 because I wanted to, my mom was fine with it and actually encouraged it, I really love my mom, her boyfriend not so much. He was a good man, he was perfect for my mom. He helped her with her jobs, said all the right things, loved her but Flynn Malcolm, my mom's boyfriend, was a fucking con artist, police were continuously chasing in, putting both my mom and I at risk. He also wanted me to some boarding school in who knows where, the only place I wanted to be was New York and I didn't want to leave. Anyway, I woke up at 7:30, school starting at 8:00 a.m, I ate some toast and went upstairs to brush my teeth. I packed my books in my red backpack that had some black spots, courtesy of the fire and the marks that I couldn't wash off. I grabbed some lunch money and walked out the door at 7:45. The bus came and I went in, I saw Milo, he was looking the window and didn't see me.
"Howdy stranger." I said. He jumped slightly and turned around, he saw me and he hugged me in a very tight hug, "Yeah, yeah, yeah, please don't break my back."
"Oops, sorry." he mumbled, "So your mom won huh?"
"Yeah, so I'll be joining you in school." I said ruffling his hair.
"Hey! I combed that!" he said.
"Well, it looks horrid no offense, it's better when it's all ruffled." I told him.
He sighed and rolled his eyes, he ruffled it but made it still look good, "Better?" he asked.
I nodded, "Yup."
We talked about stuff, mostly about the new school, some about my mom's and Flynn's fight. It was 7:50 when we got to school. Milo and I just followed all the other kids to the gym. It was loud, very,, very, very loud.
"Everyone would you please quiet down?" A girl with black hair, purple highlights, and brown eyes said in the microphone.
Everyone was quiet instantly, the girl talked about the fire, and welcoming the new students, I tuned out after 5 minutes, she said that all the new students can come up and get their schedules, Milo and I got ours and we compared ours, it appeared we had several classes together.

We walked together to our Mythology class. We sat down and we saw two girls. They introduced themselves at once.
"Hey, so your the new kids. My name is Bree, and this is Alice." A girl said.
"Hey!" the other girl said, I was guessing it was Alice.
"Um, uh, hi..?" I said.
Bree and Alice smiled, "You'll love it here, at lunch we can introduce you to all our friends if you want." Alice said.
"Um... sure." I said.
"Great!" Bree said smiling again.
Just then the teacher, Mr. Nemes came in, "Hello students, all new students please come up."
Milo and I got up, it appeared that we were the only ones. I turned bright red, "Um. My name's Ember Ohita... and um yeah." I said, I didn't like everyone staring at me, but Milo was much worse.
"My name's Milo Murito and I'm friends with Ember." he said looking at the floor.
"Thank you Ember and Milo. You may call me Adrian." he said and we walked back to our seats.
I never really had a teacher that wanted me to call them their first name's so this was going to be interesting, the the speech in the gym, I tuned out after 5 minutes.
