"Selina, just shut up and get over here! We're gonna be late!" Harley said over the phone.

"What? Are you worried that if you're late you'll not get to see your boyfriend?"

"Shut up, cat! Just get over here."

"I'm here." Selina sang. "Get your ass outside."

The line went dead. Harley grabbed her bag, skipped down the stairs and closed her front door with a bang.

She slid into the passenger seat as they sped off down the road.

"So, what was he like?"

"Oh my God. Selina, shut up!" Harley exclaimed. "Please tell you didn't tell Red?"

"Oops."

"How did you do that so fast? I literally told you about him this morning?"

"They don't call me cat for nothing." Selina winked.

"Ugh!" Harley sighed. "I knew I shouldn't have told you."

"Oh, shut up. You're such a drama queen. Who cares, you made a friend?"

"You do! And you know Red will too."

"Yeah, well. I'm sorry if you get grief from her."

"Yeah, yeah."

Harley and Selina walked into Homeroom and over to their usual spot where Harvey, Ivy and Ed were already sitting.

"Hey guys." Selina said.

"Hey."

Harley held her head in her hands. "Ugh. I've got a headache anyone have paracetamol?"

"Yes. I do." Edward said. "I am always prepared. Unlike the rest of you."

"Thanks Nygma."

"So, Harley, you met your neighbours?" Ivy asked.

"Yep." She said popping the 'p'.

"What was he-"

"Does he like riddles?" Edward asked. "Because all of you seem to hate them."

"I don't think he likes riddles, Ed." Harley said with an almost giggle.

"Who does?" Harvey chuckled and Ed scowled at him.

The teacher started calling the role and everyone answered to their name until the name:

"Jack Napier?" He said. "Is Jack Nap-"

"Sorry. Am I late?" The green-haired boy said with a smirk.

"Yes." The teacher said. "But I'll forget about it Just this once as you're new, aren't you?"

"Yep."

"Well, take a seat the bell is about to-"

Ring!

Everyone stood up and rushed out the doors.

"So, that's him?" Selina whispered in Harley's ear.

Harley shoved her. "Shh!"

As she walked out she felt someone tap on her shoulder and she let Selina walk off on her own.

She turned round and saw her new neighbour standing in front of her.

"Oh, Hey." Harley smiled.

"Hey, Harley. Miss me?" He smirked.

"Where are you now?" Harley asked as they started walking down the hall together.
