Samantha: WHAT! GET NAKED IN FRONT OF OTHERS!
Travis: Geez, when you say it like that, of course it sounds bad.
Samantha:UGH. I don't want to go to gym class it's going to be so embarrassing!
Travis: Hey, calm down. Look, it's just going into the girls locker room and getting changed. You can just go into the bathroom stall if you uncomfortable with it.
Samantha: Thanks Travis, but Is that what you do when you go to the boy's locker room?
Travis: N-no, but I used to in middle school.
Samantha: Awwwww Travis that's adorable.
Travis: Just, think on the bright side. This is our first class we had together!
Samantha: I mean, I guess you're. That's a plus I get to be with you not alone buddy.
Travis: Yeah.
Samantha: Umm, but I'm still uncomfortable with the idea of changing in front of others.
Travis: You'll be fine.
Dante: If you wanna change places with me I wouldn't mind.
Samantha: Huh?!
Dante: Hey, baby!
Samantha: *sighs* Really just really.
Dante: Travis!. I didn't know your girlfriend was this adorable!
Travis: What?!? She-she's not my girlfriend!
Dante: And she's not gonna be if you don't make a move on her soon.
Travis: W-WHAT N-N-N-N-no way man I'm not ready to ask!
Samantha: "Not ready to ask"?
Travis: Wait, I didn't mean it like that! UGH DANTE! Why do you make things so awkward?!
Dante: Because it's fun! Plus, what can I say? I really love the ladies.
Samantha: Wait a minute. Are you the guy who dated two girls at one time?
Dante: Aw man! You already told her about that?
Travis: Of course I did. I didn't want her to fall for your stupid charm. She's my not alone buddy.
Dante: *sigh* It's nice to meet you, Samantha! My name is Dante. And yes, Travis has already told me your name. I don't look it up like some kind of creep.
Samantha: Heh. Well it's nice to meet you too, Dante.
Dante: By the way, thanks for being friends with my shy buddy here. I was afraid he wasn't going to talk to anyone but me in school. So it's nice to see and getting along with someone who isn't me.
Travis: *clears throat* Dante, should you be heading to class. The bell is about to ring.
Dante: Oh right. Let me know if I can do anything for you little lady. I—*notices Kawii Chan and Nicole, who are both angrily watching him talk to Samantha* HUH?! Mother of Irene. They're both! Uh I-I gotta g-g-get going hehe see ya!
Samantha: What was that about?
Travis: I'm not sure. Dante's weird sometimes. If I could suggest something, I'd say stay away from him. He takes after his big brother Gene who is a great influence. Also, stay away from Gene and his friends too.
Samantha:Oh, alright, thanks for the tip, I guess.
-Bell Rings
Samantha: Heeeee!
Travis: You're going to be fine. Just go into the bathroom stall, get dressed and come out.
Samantha:*sigh*
Travis: I'll be waiting for you in the field. Good luck. And don't worry, just do whatever you're comfortable with.
Samantha: Right! Uh *sigh* I think I'm way overthinking this again. I'll just get dressed and get to the bathroom stalls and then... leave when the locker room clears out. Yeah, I can do this. *she does that, then comes out a bit later* Ok everyone is gone! Now I just have to get to class before the second bell rings.
Ivy: Well, look who we have here.
Samantha: Oh no.
Ivy: What's this potatoes name again?
Lily: I've heard her name is Samantha.
Samantha: Hey. Uh, stop calling me that! Uh, please?
Ivy: Calling you what? Oh you mean.. A POTATO!
Samantha: Yes. I don't like it, and why do you keep on bothering me I did absolutely nothing to you... SO WHY CAN'T YOU JUST LEAVE ME ALONE?
Ivy: Bothering you? You're bothering me! I saw you next to Garroth Ro'meave in class the other day. Right after I told you to stay away from him!
Samantha: How is this my fault? Me and Garroth and Laurence are just friends I'm in love with someone else why don't you believe me!
Ivy: Like I believed that for one second.
Samantha: Ugh. You can't tell me who I can or can't talk to I'm my own person you don't control me and if you don't like it then there's nothing you can do about it!
Ivy: OH YEAH?!
Samantha: YEAH!
Ivy: I'll teach you to stay away from him, Freshman! *She punches Samantha Hard to the floor. Samantha stands up and pushes her to the floor*
Lily: Ivy, someone call help!
Samantha:(puts her hand on her head because she hit her head) Huh? I'm sorry! I don't know what came over me and I just needed to defend myself.
Hyria: What's going on here?
Ivy: *Acting crying* I was just trying to help the freshmen get to her class, when she pushed out of nowhere and tried to hit me!
Samantha: WHAT?! I never tried to hit her she punched me really hard and I hit my head on one of the lockers and on instinct I pushed her away from me you have to believe me I would never try to hurt somebody on purpose I did it out of self defense!
Hyria: Samantha! Is this true that Ivy punched you and you responded with self defense?
Samantha: YES! Like I said before I wouldn't hurt someone on purpose.
Lily: It's true! Alex and I saw the whole thing!
Samantha: Huh?! No, no, she is the one who started this whole mess *put hand on her chest* this wasn't my fault you have to believe me plz.
Lily: See how hostile she is? I think she's dangerous!
Samantha: Tell her the truth IVY!
Hyria: Samantha, calm down. I don't care who started it. You're in serious trouble here!
Samantha: WHAT?! B-but I didn't do anything wrong!
Hyria: *Sigh* By the looks of things, you're all are the guilty ones here.
Samantha: But—
Hyria: I'm sorry, but I have to go by what I see. Next time, you go get a teacher to resolve any conflict. Now, both of you are sitting out this class period with me so I can file a report and assign detention to you, Samantha. I'm very disappointed in you, let's go.
Samantha: *thinking* (are you serious?! I have detention during the first week of school! Ugh! This is horrible!) *after that class period, as she walks to her next class* Ugh, you gotta be kidding me! I seriously hate these hallways. I can almost never find my classes!
Laurence: Is it you're lost in my eyes?
Samantha: Ugh what the- How does that make any sense? *she looks up* Ah!
Laurence: Haha, sorry, I didn't mean to scare and confuse you. I was just trying to be funny.
Samantha: Huh... it's ok. But it's was a really lame joke that didn't make any sense.
Laurence: Haha, noted. Glad to know you aren't swayed to say it was funny when it clearly wasn't.
Samantha: Yeah. Aww.
Laurence: Something wrong? The bell rang fifteen minutes ago. Did you forget something in one of your classes?
Samantha: Umm, No, I got detention.
Laurence: Detention on your first week of your first year of high school?
Samantha: Yeah.
Laurence: What did you do, if you don't mind me asking? You don't seem like a delinquent to me.
Samantha: Ivy punched me in the locker room and I hit my head on one of the lockers and in self defense I pushed her away from me.
Laurence: Oh I'm sorry that happened to you.
Samantha: It's fine really.
Laurence: Hm, I see. Well, if you want to talk about it, you can always come to me.
Samantha: Thanks. Um, that's if I don't get another detention for being late to detention.
Laurence: Haha, well, don't sweat it. I'll help you find your way there.
Samantha: Uh, you will?
Laurence: Yeah. Truth be told, I got detention once. It's not so bad.
Samantha: Really?
Laurence: Yeah. You usually just stay quiet or get a lecture. You might get lucky and have the class all to yourself. Usually, no one gets detention on the first two weeks of school. I'm kind of shocked honestly. *They walk to the detention room* Haha, that's to funny! It was the same time the first time I met you. You missed your class by one hallway.
Samantha: Uhhmmm...
Laurence: It's okay, now you go in.
Samantha: Thank you. I appreciate it.
Laurence: Oh, that reminds me. Would it be okay, if I uh gave you my number?
Samantha: Yeah, sure I can give you my number.
Laurence: oh thanks.
Samantha:(Smiles)
Laurence: Heh, cool. You never have to use it, I just, uh, wanted to give it to you. Anyway, here.
Samantha: Thanks.
Laurence: I'll see you later!
Samantha:Uh,uh, thank you!
Laurence: By the way, I like nice girls, but bad ones are also okay. *winks*
Samantha: Pfft why did you say that, you're funny *she walks inside and sees Aaron sitting there* Huh? AARON! What are you doing here oh god plz tell me you didn't get into another fight again?
Aaron:(looks away sheepishly) yeah I got into another fight Sam.
Samantha: Aaron really are you okay?
Aaron: Yeah I'm okay you don't need to worry about me.
Samantha:(Smiles and hugs Aaron) You know that I will always worry about your wellbeing and health I care about you with all I have.
Aaron:(In mind) I care about your wellbeing too Sam you're the love of my life I want you to mine I want to love and cherish you with everything I have and I won't let anyone hurt you.
Aaron: Really? Have you even looked at me? Sam I'm not hurt I'm fine.
Teacher: *walking in* I have, and quite frankly, I'm tired of your face already. It's only the first week of school, and you love birds are adorable but it's detention so be quiet.
Aaron and Samantha:(Blushing) LOVE BIRDS?!
Aaron: Ugh, whatever.
Teacher: Is this student bothering you, miss?
Samantha: No, no he's not I'm happy that I finally get to spend some quality time with him.
Teacher: Well, if he does, let me know. Now if you don't mind, you two can sit down and think about what you done. I'm going to take a nap here on the floor.
Samantha: What?! You can't sleep on the floor wouldn't it be uncomfortable and aren't you supposed to watch us.
Teacher: Don't worry, my student aid will be in to watch you guys soon. He's just running late. I'm obligated to be here, but I'm not obligated to be awake. Night!
Samantha: what are we supposed to do now Aaron what should we do.
Aaron: I don't know maybe we could catch up on some things that happened after your dad passed away.
Samantha: yeah that's a good idea Aaron.
Aaron:(smiles softly at her)
Samantha: How are your parents doing I haven't seen them in a long time because of what happened to dad and how's Melissa doing?
Aaron:(Smiles) my parents are doing good but they missed you guys after you moved away for a year because of what happened especially Melissa
And they were worried about your mental state after your dad died.
Samantha:(sadly looks away) To be honest I still miss dad very much he won't be able to see me get married or graduate (begins to cry) why did dad have to die I wanted him to be able to see me grow up but he's gone (covers her face with her hands and cry's)
Aaron:(Frowns and brings her into his chest) Shhh I know you miss your dad but you're dad would have wanted you to smile and live your life to the fullest and I promised you no matter what that I would always keep you happy.
Samantha:(wipes away her tears and smiles) Heh thanks Aaron I feel a lot better now you always know how to make me happy and smile.
Jeffery: *Walking in* Well, looks like detention is getting started early this year. Hey, I couldn't help but overhear you talking to each other over here and I'm sorry for your loss and you know he is a senior right.
Samantha: Yeah I know Aaron is a senior me and him have known each other since we were kids and I can trust him with everything (smiles)
Aaron:(Blushes) Sam....
Jeffrey: This dude over here with the anger issues? And you have been friends with him for a long time.
Aaron: GRRR.
Jeffrey: Yikes. I don't know why the little lady isn't afraid of you, you are a tad bit scary. But if memory serves me correctly, you're in the same homeroom as me, aren't ya? Aaron is your name. Silent one, eh? Care to tell me if some rumors are true?
Samantha: Rumors? Plz don't get Aaron riled up please.
Jeffrey: Yeah, apparently this dude was a transfer from a military academy in his senior year. And he's gotten into three fights already.
Aaron: ENOUGH! DON'T TALK ABOUT ME IN FRONT OF SAMANTHA UNLESS YOU WANT TO START SOMETHING.
Jeffrey: Geez, All right! No need to get hostile. Are you trying to get thrown into super detention? What's this guy's problem?
Samantha:(Blushes) Sorry he is just really really overprotective of me because we known each other for a long time and he is actually a big softie once you get to know him.
Jeffrey: Man, I can't believe I'm missing the first meeting of anime club for this.
Samantha: The anime club? I love anime me and Aaron usually watch anime together at my house or at his place!
Jeffrey: You do?
Samantha: Definitely.
Jeffrey: Nice, What are you into at the moment?
Samantha: Fairy Tail, currently.
Jeffrey: Oh man, are you caught up on all the anime and manga?
Samantha: Not yet.
Jeffrey: Hmm. Tell me who's your favorite character.
Samantha: Gray Fullbuster.
Jeffrey: AHAHA classic! Nah, actually here, I have this poster of him that I was going to give to my girlfriend. But turns out her best friend already got it for her. Go on, take it!
Samantha: Really? Are you serious? Thank you so much!
Aaron:(Smiles softly) Thanks for giving her that poster and making her smile
Jeffrey: You love her deeply don't you?
Aaron:(Blushes) Yeah I loved her ever since we were kids.
Samantha: Thank you so much.
Jeffrey: Hahaha, I like your spunk. You should join the anime club at school. I'm the vice president in the anime club here at school, so I'd love to have more people here who have your passion for anime.
Samantha: But-but honestly, I'm a little shy.
Jeffrey: Well, feel free to come and go as you please. You can join any time. Now, you guys have gotta be quiet for awhile.
Samantha: Why?
Jeffrey: Because I'm the teachers aid, and I'm not really supposed to be talking to you at all. But Mr.Tony fell asleep before I got here. That guy is a lazy bum. I don't even know how he became a teacher in the first place.
Samantha: Tell me about it.
Jeffrey: In any case, we got one hour of pure silence. Feel free to read a book or do some homework or something. Quiet starts now.
Samantha: Alright, thank you so much. Alright, I'll just sit down and draw or stare at my poster.

Samantha: Yeah, I do. I'm only a few blocks away.
Laurence: Same, um, you wanna walk together?
