"what the fuck?.." Megan scrambles and rubs her eyes as she jolts awake to the unhinged scream of an incoming call from her phone. She peaks at her phone screen, DANI is displayed on her phone screen.

Megan stretches her arms as she picks up her phone, pressing the big green button calling her name.

"Dani? why are you calling this early?" Megan asks, her voice barely above a whisper as her mind still processes her reality.

"THIS early!? Girl have you checked what time it is? it's literally 7:30."

"WHAT?? 7:30!?" Megan jumps up from bed in a panick phone still to her ear, as reality finally crashes into her. "I swear my alarm didn't go off, I'll be ready soon just PLEASE don't ditch me again." Megan answers as the panick starts to settle in.

"Fine i won't, but if you keep me waiting for over 5 minutes you can kiss your free ride goodbye. speaking of goodbyes, I'm hanging up."

"Wait, Dan-" beep, as Daniela hangs up the phone mid Megan's sentence. That bitch. Megan mutters under her breath, but recovers quickly as she attempts to save the remaining time she has to get ready. And to save her free ride to their school.

----------------------------------------

Daniela pulls her porsche into park and they both step out of the vehicle. Megan attempts to fix one strand of hair that won't follow with the rest. "That damn alarm, i swear i set it last night!" Megan complains as she tries to slick that strand of hair in place.

"You definitely did, you just slept through it." Daniela teases before her arm is met with Megan's hand. Ow! she shrieks.
"I did NOT hit you that hard." Megan complains, before their approached by Sophia Laforteza, a member of their little trio that always manages to arrive after them despite her house almost next to the academy.

"Wow! New school year but no new schedule I see." Daniela teases. Sophia offers her a soft laugh "You know it. But I'm not the only one." As she eyes Megan. "So I'm the target for today? Wow. Just wow." Megan rolls her eyes and all of them join in laughter.

---------------------------------

After they've made it inside of their school and went to their lockers, they all go their separate ways into their own classes. I'm not close with anybody in first period. great. Megan mutters under her breath as she makes her way to her first class. The bell rings the moment she steps inside, and she takes a seat near the very back of her class. Putting her headphones on while listening to Die For Me by Chase Atlantic to pass the time, as they're waiting for their professor to come inside.

It doesn't take long before the class is met with a "Good Morning."
From Mr. Orencillo, their History teacher. Megan pulls her headphones down and pauses the music blaring in her ears. She straightens her posture, questioning herself if she's going to listen to the lecture or disassociate regarding her lack of sleep.

And that's exactly what she does. Look like she listening but her mind is far, far away from where it's supposed to be-trying to hold her head up before it falls completely forward.

"Ms. Skeindiel." Her professor says with a firm tone. Caught of guard, Megan jolts in her seat as multiple heads and sets of eyes turn to look at her.

"I- uh.. yes?" Megan answers in a panick. Not remembering when she let herself fall asleep with her head tilted forward.

"I do not tolerate sleeping in my class. If you are uninterested, you're free to step out of my classroom." Mr. Orencillo gives her a sharp look that basically screams I don't like you already.

"Y-yes sir.. My apologies." Megan answers as she feels her face heat up from embarrassment. Her eyes scanning the room making eye contact with almost every individual staring at her. she sinks in her seat trying to avoid eye contact with everyone after she stared at them.

The professors goes on with his discussion, none of it being absorbed by Megan. She continues to stare into space dreading for this class to end. While waiting feels like eternity.

---------------------------------------

By third period, Megan takes a seat in the same spot as her first period. Again, listening to music to pass the time. This time, she listens to Pick your brain by Lyn Lapid. Nodding to the catchy tune.

"Good morning class." Echoes through the classroom as Mrs. Ocean steps into the classroom with a classy demeanor.

"I know this may seem unexpected, but we have a new student joining us from South Korea. And I expecr everybody to treat her with respect and a good behavior. Watch yourselves." Mrs. Ocean says with a steady tone.

Megan's eyes look up but remains her head tilted slightly forward, her eyebrow slightly raised. A new student? she thought.

"I hope she's hot, dude." A guy sitting near Megan mutters to his seatmate, but loud enough for Megan to hear.
"Me too. I wanna bang some new shit." The guy's seatmate snickers. Megan shoots them a glare deadly enough to execute someone as she involuntarily makes a tsk with her tongue.

Not long after, the new student steps into the classroom. Blonde, silky hair hanging hanging from her shoulders. Wearing gray jeans, and a black tank with a red zip up hoodie covered by a red leather jacket. Carrying her white bag on her shoulder.

She stands tall and intimidating at the front of the class next to Mrs. Ocean.

"Everybody, this is Yoonchae Jeung." Mrs. Ocean says.
Megan's eyes shoot uo at the girl, her eyes softening by a fraction. She looks really familiar, but she's very pretty Megan thought to herself.

"Hi, I'm Yoonchae. I come from South Korea and i hope we all get along well." Yoonchae says in a cold tone, with barely any warmth.
Megan and Yoonchae make eye contact for half a second, making Megan's breath hitch. Not in a good way.

"You can sit next to Megan, dear. The one with pink bangs." Mrs. Ocean tells Yoonchae, and she offers her a nod. Megan's eyes widen slightly, but before she knows it, Yoonchae is already next to her. Megan gets a whiff of lavender from Yoonchae, their shoulders brush occasionally.

"Hi." Megan mutters, barely audible. Yoonchae looks at her without turning her head "Hi." Megan offers her an awkward smile, but Yoonchae just looks away.

For the rest of the class, Megan becomes hyper aware of every move she makes. the way her arm rests, the way her hair gets loose around her ear before she tucks it back in, the way she breathes. She becomes more aware and attentive of the girl next to her rather than the lecture.

After class ends, she waits for Yoonchae to get out of her seat before gettinf up as well and jolting out the door.

She meets up with Daniela and Sophia at their locker, the two already talking about the recent lectures.

"Did you guys see the new transferee? the Korean one." Megan asks the two. "Oh yeah, she's very pretty isn't she?" Daniela answers Megan. "I know right? But, you're prettier."Sophia tells Daniela with a smirk growing on her lips before Daniela's hand connects with Sophia's arm. Giving her a slight smack.

"Ew, get a room." Megan rolls her eyes. "I know you dig those type of girls, Megan. don't bring back your playgirl era to hit her." Sophia scolds her. "Relaxxx, I've changed.." Megan says with a hint of sarcasm.

Knowing herself. Megan doubts her own sentence. Not knowing what type of situation she's about to get herself into.
