A/N: Hi, I'm kinda disappointed at the response the last chapter got, I know it wasn't amazing but I hoped I'd get more reviews! Oh well :(
Charlotte Merryweather is TotalNerdyFanGirl's awesome character.
Emma Riley is JAMBERLOVERFOREVER's cool character.
Zaylie is Wall With A Fez's amazing character. (you didn't leave a second name so I made it up, Is that okay? I can change it if you want.)
Cherry Bradson is MusicalBooker's epic character.
Daniel Jones is Guest's character.
Just to let ya'll know, I put the two chapters named Shopping Pranks and Harry together, and that's why this story don't have so many chapters! in this chapter Harry has gone to live with Sapphire and Lily is with her dad, like I said would happen in the last chapter!
School P1
Mina's P.O.V.
I wasn't really looking forward to school next week, I had to go and get uniform with Emma, Charlotte and Tracy on Saterday and then ... The dreaded school! I hoped it would be better than my last school, but then again, almost anything would be better than my last school.
Almost.
I've got a feeling today isn't going to be great, what with the three new kids coming to The Dumping Ground we will have to sort out their rooms and make sure they all tell Gus their name's, and then school uniform shopping later on today with Emma, Charlotte and the three new kids. What fun! Not.
The door bell rang and Tracy hurried to get it. I couldn't be bothered to go and welcome the new kids and neither could anyone else in the living room, judge from the looks on their grumpy faces.
We heard Tracy introduce herself to them and then ask them for their names, even though she already knew their name's she was trying to be polite. Then, we heard her laugh and she told them to come on in and meet the rest of the kids. I saw Gus getting ready with his notebook, ready to pounce on them as soon as they walked through that door, ready to request their full name's, age's and a complete story of why they are in care.
They walked in, there were two girls and one boy. One of the girls had gorgeous, thick red hair that glistened in the light and lovely soft brown eyes which looked caring. I could tell from the way that she dressed that she was a bit of a tomboy and not one of those girly - girls that I don't usually get on with. She was wearing dark blue skinny jeans and a ( slightly too small for her ) t - shirt that had the word GEEK printed on in large black letters. On her feet were red All Star Converse.
The boy was slightly taller than the red haired girl. He had short, light blond hair, which was spiked up a lot at the front but not so much at the back. His hair framed his face perfectly, a face which was flecked with light brown freckles that covered his whole face, giving him a cute 'little boy' look. He looked nice enough, I suppose. He wore much the same as the other girl; skinny jeans and a t - shirt, however, the jeans were dark maroon colour and the shirt was a red Man United shirt. He also had brightly colored foot ball boots, without the studs in, of course, that looked brand new. Did he play footie? I wondered.
The last girl had dark skin and silky black hair which was braided up in what looked like near a thousand braids and tied up at the top of her head. She looked kind, how I could tell I have no idea, she just looked like one of those kind people, you know what I mean? She was carrying a case that looked like it might hold some sort of musical instrument, it was black and roughly 60cm long.
"Right kids! Listen up!" That was Tracy trying to get our attention and failing to. "This is Cheryl-" Tracy was interrupted by an exasperated girl; the red head of the bunch.
"For the last time, it isn't Cheryl it's Cherry!"
"Okay, Cherry, no need to shout. So this is Cherry," Tracy pointed at the red head again.
"We gathered that," Elektra was in a bad mood again. Tracy ignored her and carried on.
"This is Daniel, or Danny as you can call him," Tracy had made the mistake once of forgetting one of their nickname's, she wasn't about to do the same thing again. She used her left hand and pointed at the boy in the middle.
"And this," She said, now pointing at the girl with braids, "This is Zaylie," With that Tracy left the room to leave the newbies to settle in and get to know us. Gus decided it was time for him to take over.
"Name," He ordered Cherry, "First and second," Cherry looked surprised at the sudden question but answered shortly.
"Cherry Bradson,"
"Age?"
"Twelve,"
"School year?"
"Seven,"
"Hobbies?"
"Reading, writing and pranking people," At this last answer Liam looked up interestedly.
"Dislikes?"
"Umm, I don't know,"
"Okay, you're done, next!" Cherry looked a little confused as Gus stepped over to Daniel and asked him the same things, writing in his small - ish black note book continuously.
"Name?" He ordered, to Danny this time though, "First and second," Danny, having seen what had happened to Cherry knew what was coming.
"Daniel Jones, some people call me Danny or Dan,"
"Age?"
"Thirteen,"
"School year?"
"Eight,"
"Hobbies?"
"Playing football with my friends, my position's striker," At this last answer Liam looked up again, he liked playing footie, his position on the school team was striker, and I could tell what he was thinking, 'This new boy better not take my position, if he makes the school foot ball team.'
"Dislikes?"
"Chocolate,"
"Okay, you're done too, next!" Gus then walked over to Zaylie, muttering something about Daniel / Danny / Dan."Name?" This was the third round of Gus's questions and he hadn't changed a word. "First and second," Zaylie told him.
"Zaylie Miraker, you can call me Zaylie or Zay,"
"Age?"
"Fourteen and a half,"
"School year?"
"Nine,"
"Hobbies?"
"Music, I play the Oboe,"
"Dislikes?"
"Bullies,"
"Okay. Thank you, now I need to go and add this information to my chart!" Gus walked out of the room, staring down at his note book like it had grown legs.
"Okay, Mina, Emma, Charlotte, Cherry, Zaylie and Daniel, you need to come with me into town now to get your new school uniform for Mountveille High,"
Tracy walked into the room, talking as she did about our school uniform, "Both the girls and the boys have a different uniform and P.E. kit, if you decide to do any of the school clubs we will have to buy you the competition kit as well, which is just a pair of long maroon socks." She told us.
I sighed, and got up from the sofa, followed by Emma, Charlotte, Cherry, Zaylie and Daniel, I ran upstairs, taking each step two at a time,so as to not hold the rest up, I grabbed a coat from my wardrobe and ran back down, equally as fast as I was on the way up . I reached the bottom and raced outside and soon found everyone else who was going to buy their new school uniform and Tracy standing by Tracy's cherry red car which was parked haphazardly in the drive. We all got in the car and Tracy drove us into town.
The shop which sold our school uniform was called ShOp4ScHoOl and it looked like it held every single school's in existence's uniform and P.E. kit! As we entered I heard a smiley man on the left ask us what school we needed uniform for. I heard Tracy reply that we were starting at Mountveille High and he nodded and showed us to another part of the shop, it was labeled Mountveille High and it had many racks with lots of different school uniform in, all were emblazoned with a golden bird flying upwards on a cloud of white with a school motto which I presumed to be Mountveille High's. The motto was Soar to success as if you were a bird, hence the golden bird flying upwards.
The man asked Tracy for our ages and which year we would be in and then started walking around the isles of Mountveille High uniform, picking out what we would need and the right sizes. He did the boys first ( There was only one boy: Daniel ) and gave Daniel a maroon hoody, yellow t - shirt and a pair of black trousers and told him to go and try it all on. Daniel came out of the small fitting room a couple of minutes later, dressed in his normal clothes again.
"Did it all fit?" Tracy asked, her fingers crossed we wouldn't have any fuss getting his uniform.
"Yeah, everything was fine, is that all I need?" He answered, asking a question of his own too. The smiley man who was helping us answered.
"No, you still need the P.E. kit, I'll get that now for you," He turned and walked off again, picking up more clothes as he did. He came back soon enough, this time with the sports kit. The P.E. kit was made up of two kits, one for rugby and the other for any other sports. The rugby one consisted of a pair of black shorts and a striped yellow and maroon long sleeved shirt. The other, had a white t - shirt and a pair of white shorts, they also had a pair of long socks which were maroon striped with yellow at the top. I had guessed by now that the school colours were yellow and maroon.
Daniel went to try on the two kits and came back smiling.
"Perfect fit," He confirmed to Tracy and she grinned, one sorted, five to go!
"Right the girls next," Tracy said, pointing at us with her index finger. She listed our age's and school year's and the smiley man went off again. When he came back he had the girls uniform for a size and age twelve. He gave them to Cherry and she went to change. She came out dressed a a maroon V - neck jumper, a yellow t - shirt ( not unlike the boy's ) , a pair of black opaque tights and a black pleated skirt. It seemed to fit so she went and tried on the sport kit. The sports kit was a pair of long maroon socks with yellow stripes at the top, like the boy's , a black skort, a white polo shirt - again like the boy's kit - and a black jumper.
Each of us tried on our uniform in turn, from smallest and youngest to tallest and oldest, Zaylie. When we were all done and had the whole kit Tracy thanked the man, payed the bill and we left the shop with our new school uniform.
The next day
Mina's P.O.V.
PIINNNNNGGGGGGGG,
I reached over and pressed the stop button on my alarm clock, causing it to stop ringing and fall silent. I groaned, it was my first day at Mountveille High and I wasn't looking forward to it at all. To start with I'm not very good around new kids, then, I'm not very good at school anyway and also I don't really get along with many teachers so altogether school is not really my sort of thing.
I got up and reached for my brand new school uniform. Jumper, shirt, tights and a skirt. I pulled it all on and went into the bathroom to have a shower and brush my teeth, not forgetting my minimal amount of make up. The shower was so lovely and warm I forgot I was meant to have a quick one and I spent nearly ten whole minutes relaxing in the warmth of the running water. It was so peaceful and quiet I forgot about school, about the time, about everything... Until I heard Gina's tell tale shouting echoing into the room. Disturbing my peaceful state of mind and making me hurry out of my glorious shower.
"MINA! IT IS NEARLY HALF PAST EIGHT, YOU NEED TO BE IN SCHOOL IN HALF AN HOUR! HURRY UP!"
Oh god, I forgot about school! I bolted out of the shower, did my make up, a bit of foundation and mascara, pulled on my clothes again and hurried out of the room. I ran downstairs and got a bowl and some cereal out of the cupboard, swallowed it all down before realising that everyone was staring at me.
"Umm, Mina? It's not half past eight, Gina just wanted you to hurry up," Johnny spoke up.
"Oh, I knew that ... I was just ... Um ... I didn't want to be late," I said hurriedly, hoping I sounded like I was telling the truth. Johnny nodded, like he didn't believe me but didn't want to say anything about it. I glanced at the round, kitchen clock face, to see what the tie really was. Eight o clock. Good, I had enough time for a proper breakfast.
At Mountveille High
Mina's P.O.V.
There were six new pupils for Mountveille High from Elm Tree House our care home. Me ( Mina ), Emma, Charlotte, Cherry, Zaylie and Daniel. I think that all of us girls looked a bit shy but Daniel - the only new boy - strode in, confidence written in big, black, bold letters across his freckled face. We were accompanied by the rest of the Elm Tree House kids, of course, only the ones which went to Elm Tree House.
Johnny, Liam and Tee took us six to go and see the headmistress, so we would know which form we would be in before the bell went. The headmistress's office was rather blank, it merely had a posh, black, leather sofa and a matching leather chair at an old wooden desk. Sat in the posh, black, leather chair was Miss Lewis, Mountveille High's headmistress. She turned around to face us and asked for our name's. Once we had given them to her she proceeded to tell us which registration class's we would be in for the rest of this year, and the rest of our time at Mountveille High.
"Right, let's see ... You're Cherry, right? You're in 7P. Emma is in 9A along with Zaylie, I think Liam is in 9A too, aren't you Liam?" He nodded and she carried on, "Mina, you and Charlotte are in 8D," She was interrupted by an over exited Johnny.
"That's the same form as me Mina! You'll be in the same classes as me!" I grinned, maybe Mike was right after all ...
"That leaves you, Daniel, you're in 8A with Toby. Is that okay with everyone?" We all nodded, happy with the arrangements.
A/N: Please review! It makes me soo happy! I love everyone who has already reviewed to bits! The next chapter will be in two weeks cos I'm going on holiday! Yeyy, I would be very happy if I came back to lots of nice reviews, but of course they don't have to be nice, there is always room for imptovement! See Ya all!
