Wait, what?

Breya knew she liked girls, but she didn't know she'd fall for one this easily. She watched as Lucas and Dustin stared at her skating past their lockers.

God, why can't being gay be more accepting?

Max kicks her skateboard up and opens the locker that was two down from Breya's.

"Hi." Max smiles slightly.

"Hey." Breya smiles fully, staring a bit, even after Max looked back into her locker. Breya realized and quickly shut her locker, looking at the clock in the hallway and rushing to her first class.

Max looks at the girl shuffling through the halls and smiles, watching for a bit before ultimately shutting her locker and walking to class.

THE BELL RINGS after class, Max and Breya waving as they arrive at their locker. Lucas slightly nudges Breya on accident when he walks to talk to Max. Breya exchanges a look of "Are you crazy?" which he dismisses and clears his throat, gaining Max's attention.

"Hi, I'm Dustin and this is Lucas," Dustin introduces, Max looking deadpan at the two.

"Yeah, I know," Max states, "the stalkers." Breya presses her lips together and eyes Lucas, who shoots her a glare.

The two start thinking of ways to argue that they weren't stalking out loud, when Breya steps in, "Just shut up and tell her whatever your dumb idea is."

"Look, we were talking last night and we were thinking about how, well, you're new and probably don't have any friends to take you trick or treating," Dustin smiles, Lucas smiling while shooting Dustin a glare and Breya's jaw dropping slightly at the statement.

"We were thinking that it would be okay if you come with us!" Lucas gives her a thumbs up and Breya slams her head against her locker at their stupidity.

"Wow, I didn't know it was such an honor to go trick or treating with you! How preposterous!" Max states sarcastically.

"Yeah, so will you be there?" Dustin asks, to which Max rolls her eyes and shuts her locker, turning around to walk to class.

"Nice going." Breya tells them, walking the opposite way to get to her own class. Dustin and Lucas look at each other and shrug, not realizing what they said or did that make her turn around and walk away.

"Preposterous! That's good, right?" Dustin questions, Lucas turning around and walking the same way as Breya.

"Is it bad?"

"Lucas, you son of a bitch, is it bad?"

"Lucas!"
