"Why are we moving to Los Angelos?" Violet asked her parents in the car. "To start a new adventure, Vi." Her father answered her.

"I'm not stupid.." Violet muttered under her breath.

"What was that sweetie?" Vivian, her mother asked.

"Nothing."

43 hours laters, they met Marcy, she guided them through the house & its history. "The previous owners died in this house." Marcy said. "Where?" Violet asked, in curiosity. "In the basement. It was a murder-suicide." Marcy stated. Before Ben, the father & Vivian could answer, Violet said "We'll take it." With a smirk on her face.

The next day

"I still don't see why I need to go to a public school. Why can't I be homeschooled?" Violet complained.

"Vi, your mother & I work all day." Ben said, taking a bite out of his toasted bread. Vivian came into the kitchen holding her car keys. "Plus, you'll make friends Violet." She added. Violet gave her a groan. "Whatever."

Vivian dropped Violet off at her school & drove off. Violet walked inside & gave a look at her schedule & walked to her first class, Chemistry. "Ah! You must be Violet Harmon. My name is Mr. Smith, & I'm your chemistry teacher. You will sit next to Allison." Violet nodded & made her way to the girl with long, blonde hair, green eyes & tanned skin. "Hi I'm Violet, you must be Allison?"

"Call me Alice."

"Oh, ok."

"What class do you have next?" Alice asked in curiosity. "I have Art next." Violet answered. "Great! You have my bff in your class." Alice smirked. "Oh, by the way, we're friends now, which makes you popular." Violet gave her a nod.

The bell rang & Violet made her way to her shitty class. The teacher, Mrs. Clark greeted Violet. "You'll sit next to the boy with curly blonde hair who seems to be sleeping.." Mrs. Clark pointed out to him. Violet just nodded & made her way towards him.

"Hey I'm Violet." Greeting herself, the boy raised his head. He noticed that she was hanging out with Allison in the hallways. "Why are you talking to me? Can't you bother someone else in this fucking school?" He flipped her off & lowered his head down. "Asshole..." she muttered & the boy kicked her leg.

The bell rang & she went to her next class, World History. The teacher, Mr. Cunningham said she'll have to sit next to the boy with curly hair. Shit... not him again... Violet thought. She thanked the teacher & sat right next to him. "Fuck not you again." He groaned. "Shut up I'm not happy to see you too." Violet murmured. "Alright guys, we're doing a project but I will pick your partners for you. Sky, you'll be with George. Bailey, you're with Gabriel. Violet you're with... Tate." Violet raised her hand. "Mr. Cunningham, who is Tate?" Violet asked. "The boy sitting next to you." The teacher answered.

The teacher went back to picking out the partners. Violet looked at Tate for a couple minutes. "Take a picture, it'll last longer." Tate said. "Why do you hate me so much?"

"You're friends with Allison Winter."

"How did you kn—" Tate cut her off. "I'm in your chemistry class, I sit behind you."

"I don't want to be friends with her. She likes Hollister & PINK, I like Hot Topic & Spencers. She likes the light I like dark. I actually don't like her, but she's the only person who is nice to me."  Tate laughed at her. "Yeah 'nice'." He scoffed. "Give her a week & you'll see if she really is nice."

The bell rang & she saw Tate reading in the cafeteria, sitting by himself. She walked towards him. "Violet!! Come sit with us." Violet shook her head. "Um no thanks I'll sit somewhere else... I have to work on a project with a friend." Alice scoffed. "Whatever."

Violet walked towards Tate's table & set her tray down, sitting across from him. Tate set his book down. "You again? What do you want?" He questioned. "We need to work on our History project. I say our project should be about musical Ha—" Tate cut her off.

"Hamilton?"

Violet nodded. "Hamilton." Tate grinned. "Violet.. I'm assuming you listen to Hamilton, but when you hang out with those guys," Tate pointed to her group of friends. "You have to listen to what they listen to. Heavy rap." Violet shuddered. "They invited me to a pool party at Ma—" Tate cut her off, again. "At Matt's? Yeah I'm going."

"Tate please stop cu—" Tate cut her off. "Stop cutting you off? Yeah, we'll see." They both laughed. Tate leaned closer to Violet. "See you at the party tonight?" Violet leaned closer to Tate. "I'll see you there."

As the bell rang, the day went on, Tate would give Violet funny looks while Violet would laugh at him. The school day ended at 4:15 PM. When Violet was walking to her mom's car, Alice pulled on her arm. "I saw the way you were looking at him. You cannot be friends with him ok?" Alice green eyes pierced through Violet. "You can-" Alice cut her off. "See you at the party." Alice stormed off & Violet entered her mom's car.

"Hey sweetie how was school?" Vivian asked.

"Besides everyone cutting me off, it was.. ok. I have a party to attend to."

"Ok.... did you make any friends?" She asked her daughter. "Only one." Violet answered. "Who?"

"Some guy named Tate."

Vivian drove her home & Violet got ready for the party. Violet heard some whispers. She looked around her room. Seeing nothing, she shrugged & picked out some skinny jeans & a long black sleeved shirt. She drove to Matt's house, seeing all of her friends there. She ignored them & looked around for Tate. She opened the bathroom only to find Alice & Matt having sex. "S-Sorry." She closed the door but Alice was chasing after her, only wearing a bra & underwear. "Violet!" She yelled. Violet turned around. "Alice I'm sorry I didn't mean to—"

"Violet please don't tell anyone what you saw! Please Vi!" She begged. Violet nodded "Ok if your promise to stop cu-" Alice cut her off. "Thank you!" She hugged Violet & ran into the bathroom.
