"Mum we're leaving now" I shouted as I ran down the stairs

"Okay, don't forget your lunch and dr-"

"And drive safely, Mum you say this all the time, don't worry we'll be safe, especially if I'm in that car"

"Val, you know I don't want what happened the last time to happen again" she came out of the kitchen to face me "Just be safe. Where are your brothers?" she asked me looking towards the stairs.

Evan, Ivan and I are.... triplets.

"Evan, Ivan, get down here" I shouted. Gosh, they take too much time getting ready and they say girls take a lot of time getting ready.

"We're coming, we're coming" they yelled back while coming down the stairs.

"Geez, you don't have to shout V, I don't want to get deaf. My ears are precious you know" Evan whined while Ivan brought our lunch to us.

"Dude she didn't even shout, when she does, a mini-earthquake happens" I smacked him upside the head.

"Mom we're leaving, don't work too much, bye, love you" and I was out of the door. I knew if I stayed a second longer, she would fuss a lot and then we'd be late.

"You didn't have to hit me, you know," Ivan told me after coming out of the door still rubbing his forehead.

"If you guys start arguing now we're going to be late" Evan said just as I opened my mouth to speak.

Stupid Telepathy.

"Fine, let's go" I grumbled as I entered the backseat of the car with Evan in the driver's seat and Ivan in the passenger seat.

School.... great!

                         ~**~*~~*

As we pulled into the driveway of Beverly High, I saw Kyla waiting at the front doors of the school. Kyla's my best and only friend. You're probably wondering why she's my only friend, well it's because she's the only one who stayed by my side through everything, but she's always been my best friend.

Don't worry, you can say it. I know my life's pathetic.

I came down from the car and went towards an enthusiastic Kyla. "Hey, girl"

"You ready for senior year?"

"I think so"

"Don't worry, this year's gonna be different"

"Yeah, I hope so" I mumbled, more to myself.

"Hey, babe" Oh, did I forget to mention that Evan and Kyla are dating? Oops, well they are and I don't want to be here when they suck their faces off.

'This year better be different I thought as I walked through the front doors of this hellhole called school.

                ~**~*~~*

  I walked to my locker and put in my combination.

"Look who's here" I heard someone say. Ugh! I know that voice and she's the last person I want to see.

Putting on a blank expression, I turned to face her.

"What do you want Bethany?" I guess this is the part I say Bethany is the head cheerleader and blah, blah, blah, but I'm not going to say it because she isn't. She's actually the leader of the drama club, but she's still got the stereotypical attitude.

And she's really a drama queen... (No pun intended...or not)

"You know what, don't answer that question, I don't even want to know what you want, just get lost," I said feeling agitated already.

I turned to my locker, put my books in and left, not even waiting for her to say anything.

She should be used to me walking away from her by now.

I went to my first class, English, and saw that Kyla was already there and sat beside her.

"I hate it when you put on a blank face" she whispered to me.

"You should know why I put it on"

"I know" She sighed "But I just hate it"

She started talking about cheerleading stuff. Yeah, She's the head cheerleader.

Well, what can I say? My school's not your everyday cliché high school. It's just different like that.

Just then Mr Fizzbeard walked in - I mean, what kind of name is that?-  so Kyla kept quiet. He came in with someone else, always in a crappy mood. "Good morning class, this year we're having a new student joining us, so you guys should make him feel welcome" he droned in a monotone voice and turned to the guy "Why don't you introduce yourself?"

Woah he's hot.

Snap out of it!

The guy smirked "Okay, I'm Zayde and I just moved here from England" he said with a slight British accent and made the girls swoon. I just rolled my eyes.

Okay, I gotta admit he's hot and so is his voice but he can just move over to Bethany.

I put my head on my desk as I drowned his voice out.

The only thing different about this year so far is a new student at school.

"He's hot" I heard Kyla whisper to me "and he's sitting in front of us"

"So?" I raised my head to look at her "I'm sure I've seen a lot of hot guys before, he's not an exception" I added once I saw the look she was giving me.

I knew where she was driving at.

"Kyla, you know I can't, besides Bethany's already got her eyes on him," I said nodding my head towards Bethany's seat "and the last thing I want this year is drama." I sighed "It's not going to work no matter what you do. Sorry"

"Fine" she answered grumpily "But seriously V, it's been four years, can't you just add one more person to your life? You know things aren't going to stay like this forever"

I shook my head "There's no room for one more" I said in a voice that leaves no room for argument.

I pulled my hoodie up and put my head on my desk. Mr Fizzbeard knows I won't take it off and he won't wake me up.

Again, what kind of name is that?

I just drowned out his voice because I already know the topic. Yeah, I study ahead. Big deal.

 'There's no room for one more' is all I thought before I slept off.
