Priscilla woke up to the early morning sun peaking though the curtains of her bedroom. She turned over on her side, and glanced at the radio alrm, which read six-thirty. Getting out of bed, she walked over to the window and saw people on their early morning walk, or grabbing their newspapers. After seeing it was going to be a pretty nice day, she walked to her closet, and chose a mint green mini dress, which belonged to Diana, as well as white flats.
After Priscilla was dressed, and loose curls were added to her beautiful, long brunette hair, she slipped on her white cardigan and her shoes, then spritzed some light scented perfume on her pulse points, turned off her light, and walked down the hall.
In the livingroom, she set her backpack on the couch, then walked to the kitchen, where she found Freya preparing breakfast, and Elijah sipping his coffee.
"Good morning." Priscilla smiled as she walked over to the fridge and served herself a glass of orange juice
Freya smiled as she turned around. "Good morning gorgeous. You look beautiful. Would you like some breakfast?"
Priscilla smiled as she stood at the stove and served herself some breakfast. "Yes." the brunette smiled as she kissed her aunt's cheek, then joined her uncle at the table
"Well, it's your first last day." Elijah said as he set his coffee cup down. "You ready for it?"
"Yes, but a little nervous at the same time." Priscilla smiled as she sipped her orange juice then began eating her food.
Freya gave her niece a warm, reassuring smile as she walked to the table with her own plate of food, then sat down beside the brunette. "There's no need to be. You're gonna do just fine."
"Your aunt Freya's right." Elijah said as he finished his breakfast. "So have you thought of what colleges you would like to attend?"
"UCLA with Ali, they have a great nursing program." Priscilla said
Priscilla looked at the clock, then stood up to take her plate to the sink. "Well I guess I better be heading out. Love you both." she smiled as she kissed her aunt and uncle's cheeks
"Love you too, sweetheart. Have a great day at school." Elijah smiled
"Love you too gorgeous." Freya smiled. "Have a wonderful day at school."
"I will." Priscilla smiled

Priscilla pulled into the parking lot and parked her impala as Stevie Nicks and Tom Perry's Stop Draggin' My Heart Around played on the tapedeck. As she parked in her parking spot, she saw the Cobra Kais surrounding Johnny's bike, laughing and talking, then she saw the new kid riding in to the parking lot as well.
After turning off the ignition, Priscilla checked her mascara, grabbed her book bag from the passenger seat, and then she got out of the car, locking it along the way. She put her keys in her pocket, her book bag over her shoulder and began walking towards the building, and Bobby couldn't help but watch Priscilla. He wanted to talk to her so bad, but he knew that she wouldn't want to talk to him.
Priscilla walked into the office and was immediately greeted by Darlene, the elderly secretary, who comes to all of the school functions. After conversing with Darlene for a few minutes, she left the office and walked to her locker, taped a picture of Klaus and Diana, and grabbed her backpack for P.E. and headed to the field.
"Hey Priscilla." Susan smiled as the brunette walked onto the field and into the locker room
Priscilla smiled warmly and embraced her friend. "Hey Susie. I'm loving the sunglasses on you."
"Thanks!" Susan smiled. "Thought they would accentuate my outfit."
Priscilla smiled as she stepped into the locker room and changed into her P.E. attire. "Of course they do. So, how does it feel to be a senior?"
"Like freedom." Susan said as Priscilla walked out in her gym clothes and put her hair in a ponytail. "How about you?"
"I don't know, I mean, it's so surreal. They say your years of high school go by fast and they were right." Priscilla smiled as the two walked over to the field
"Anyway, I'm heading over to the girls, you coming?" Susan asked
"I'm gonna wait for Ali." Priscilla smiled. "You go ahead."
"Alright, see you in a few." Susan smiled
Priscilla sat down on the bleachers, she unzipped her backpack, and grabbed her Pride and Prejudice book. A little into her reading, she moved her ponytail away, she felt someone sit next to her. Expecting it to be Ali, she turned her head with a warm smile, and spoke. "There you are, I've been wondering—" but she cut herself off and rolled her eyes in pure annoyance and hatred when she saw Bobby sitting next to her. "Oh, it's just you. What do you want?"
"Can we talk? Please? It will only take a few minutes." Bobby pleaded
Priscilla looked across the field to see Ali grab a ball and tossed it to Daniel, and the two began to talk. Priscilla heaved a sigh. She had avoided him long enough, and a few minutes wouldn't hurt anyone
"I can talk for a few minutes." Priscilla said as she placed her book in her backpack, and zipped it up. "What do you want to talk about?"
"Are you busy after school?" Bobby asked
"I mean, I was going to hang with Ali, but why does it matter to you?" Priscilla asked as they stood up.
"I wanted to talk about everything." Bobby said. "I wanted to really and truly talk to you. I've been trying to talk to you all summer."
Priscilla rolled her eyes and scoffed. "You seriously can't take a hint can you? After all the hell you put me through, I don't want to talk to you. Besides I've been—" she said, but was cut off by one of her friends calling her name.
"Priscilla, over here!" Barbara called as she waved the beautiful brunette over to the other cheerleaders
Priscilla sighed, then turned to face her ex-best friend. "Look, I've gotta go, but I'll think about meeting you after school."
Bobby smiled brightly, that was enough for him, as it was a step in the right direction. Giving him a soft smile, she walked over to her friends
"Everything all right?" Barbara asked as she stretched for cheer try outs
Priscilla nodded her head as she set her backpack on the bleachers and sat down beside her friends to stretch for cheer tryouts. "I'm fine." she smiled
"What did he want?" Susan asked as she stretched for cheer tryouts
"He said he wants to talk after school." Priscilla said as she stretched for cheer tryouts.
"I think you should." Susan said as she stretched
Priscilla raised a brow at her. "Come again?"
"I mean I know what he did, but when I hang out with the Cobras, he's always asking about you. He wants to know how you're doing, especially after Klaus and Diana." Susan said
"If he was so damn concerned, he could have shown up to the funeral, not that I care if he did or didn't. Even after he treated me like literal shit, my mother was still so kind to him, and she didn't have to be." Priscilla said
"He was there Priscilla." Susan said. "He sat in the back because he didn't want to cause a scene. The guys came to support him and even you, even though they don't know you, they had heard so much about you from us and Bobby."
Priscilla stood there taking in the information she just heard. She felt like she had been hit with a ton of bricks. She couldn't believe it. "Wow." she mumbled
"Priscilla, are you alright?" Barbara asked
"Yeah, I'm alright." Priscilla said, then turned to see Daniel and Ali flirting.
"Cheerleaders over here!" the cheer coach called
"Oh, I gotta go." Ali smiled as she gave the ball to Daniel.
"I'll see you." Daniel smiled at Ali
"Okay, bye." Ali smiled as she turned to walk away
"Bye." Daniel said. "Hey, you got a name?"
Ali turned around but continued walking to the cheerleaders. "Ali with an i. Hey what's your name?" she smiled brightly
"Daniel, with an l." Daniel smiled, making Ali laugh.
"I'll see you later." Ali laughed happily as she jogged over to the cheerleaders.
"Well, well, well. Looks like you two certainly hit it off." Priscilla smiled as she rested her arm on Ali's shoulder, and the blonde blushed
Priscilla, Ali, and the cheerleaders began doing their cheer routines with Ali leading. Priscilla was next to Ali, and Susan and Barbara were behind them.
All was going well until Priscilla noticed Johnny looking at Bobby, and made the dead motion to him, as the two were watching Daniel. Bobby made an okay gesture, then huddled in a group with Tommy and Jimmy.
Priscilla rolled her eyes and shook her head as she and the cheerleaders continued on with the cheer routine. Ali did a back handspring, and Priscilla did a herky jump ending in the splits. The two watched the Cobras carefully as they began to taunt Daniel, and they slowed their movements.
The coach blew the whistle and Daniel, Bobby, Tommy, and Jimmy took the field with a bunch of other boys who were trying out. Someone passed the ball to Daniel and he started making his way down the field, shuffling the ball through his feet as he went. Bobby slid to the ground, knocking Daniel's legs out from underneath him, but making it look like he was kicking the ball, but Priscilla knew otherwise though.
"Have a nice trip?" Bobby mocked.
Daniel ran at him and grabbed him by the waist, bringing him to the ground, and tackled him to the grass, punching Bobby in the face
"Hey, nobody hits me! I'm gonna tear your face off!" Bobby yelled as the coach pulled Daniel off of him and pushed him into the crowd. Tommy grabbed Daniel while some another boy grabbed Bobby.
"Kill him, Bobby! Kill him!" Tommy encouraged, while holding back a thrashing Daniel
"Get out! There's no place on this team for that kind of crap." The coach yelled at Daniel.
"He hooked me, man!" Daniel shouted in defense.
"I said out of here!" The coach demanded, pointing off the field.
"This school sucks man! It sucks!" Daniel shouted before storming off the field.
Johnny and Dutch were standing on the sidelines mocking him and laughing. Priscilla wanted to help Daniel, but she knew she had to stay right where she was, as it's best not to get involved. She looked at Ali, who was watching the whole thing, as she slowed her movements.
Daniel himself walked away, furious at what happened. Looking across the field, she saw Bobby laughing with his friends and they gave each other a low five. Then she looked at her true best friend : Ali Mills, who looked lost, she wanted to help Daniel. This was going to be a long school year.

When lunch rolled around Priscilla and Ali were in line, when the blonde looked over her shoulder and saw Daniel. Priscilla nodded her head and the two walked over to the boy, who was standing in line getting his food, while both girls had empty lunch trays.
"Hi." Ali smiled brightly, as she stood next to Daniel.
Daniel turned to see Ali and his face lit up. "Hey, Ali with an i, how ya doin'?"
Ali smiled brightly. "Good, Daniel LaRusso, this is my best friend Priscilla Duncan, Priscilla, this is Daniel LaRusso."
"Hey, Priscilla. It's good to meet you." Daniel smiled as he shook Priscilla's hand
"Hey Daniel." Priscilla smiled as she shook Daniel's hand. "You as well."
"You ladies aren't too hungry today?" Daniel asked the two best friends noticing their empty lunch trays.
"No, not really." Ali said sweetly
"Not really." Priscilla smiled
"Here, have some pie. I made it myself." Daniel said while putting a slice of blueberry pie on their trays. Priscilla just shook her head in amusement and Ali smiled at him
"Yeah? So how do you like the valley so far?" Ali asked
"It hasn't been dull." Daniel said, referring to the beach fight and the soccer tryouts.
"Was Newark dull?" Ali asked, to which Priscilla looked at her, and the two of them shared a smirk
Daniel looked at Ali and gave her a quizzical look. "How did you know I was from Newark?"
Ali smiled sweetly, then replied, "I asked."
"Oh really, you two sitting with anybody?" Daniel asked
"Well you and Priscilla if it's okay." Ali said, meaning she wanted the three of them to sit together
"Sounds great to me, you ladies want some milk?" Daniel asked.
"Yeah, thanks." Ali said.
"Sure." Priscilla smiled, and Daniel gave the girls a carton of milk
"Listen, I'm sorry about the soccer tryouts." Ali said
"Ah, those are the breaks, you know." Daniel said, as the trio walked to the cash register to pay for their lunches
"You remember that guy you had trouble with on the beach?" Ali asked
"Oh yeah, king karate?" Daniel asked
"Yeah, that's my ex-boyfriend." Ali said, and Priscilla gave her a sympathetic look.
"And you remember the guy on the soccer field who swept your leg? That's my ex-best friend." Priscilla said
"Oh that's good to know." Daniel said and then looked in the air. "I know. I know. You're right." he said while looking in the air, and Ali and Priscilla gave each other a quizzical look and then looked back at Daniel.
"What are you doing?" Ali asked
"Oh it's this little voice telling me I've gotta be some kind of a yo-yo to be talking to you both right now." Daniel told Ali
"That'll be $2.50." The lunch lady said
"Oh for all three." Daniel told her.
"Oh, that's okay Daniel I've got mine, just buy Ali's here." Priscilla said, as she nudged her best friends shoulder
"$3.75" The cashier told Daniel, and he gave her the money.
After Daniel paid for both his and Ali's lunches, Priscilla paid for hers, then Ali and Priscilla started walking together, side by side. "It doesn't matter anyway." the blonde smiled
"Why's that?" Daniel questioned
"Because it's over." Ali said
"How over?" Daniel asked
"Weeks." Ali said.
"Weeks? One week? Five weeks? How many weeks is weeks?" Daniel questioned
Priscilla, Ali, and Daniel reached a vacant table. What they didn't see, was Johnny walking over from the Cobra Kai table with Bobby's blueberry pie.
As Priscilla and Ali sat down, Johnny slipped the pie into Daniel's seat, as he sat down. The two best friends heard Tommy and the Cobras laugh. Daniel stood up and the girls looked at his blueberry smeared pants.
"Jerk!" Ali yelled as she stood up from her seat, as Priscilla stood up from her seat to stand beside her.
"You oughta watch where you sit next time, pal." Johnny said. "Probably your only pair of pants, huh?"
"You're such a fucking dick!" Priscilla spat angrily
Daniel wiped the blueberry pie off his pants and held it in his hands, then walked over to Johnny. "Don't even think about it, worm" Johnny derisively said
Daniel calmly smeared the mess on Johnny's shirt. This caused mayhem to erupt. The girls were yelling at them to stop, while dozens of boys, including the Cobra Kais, were jumping in to break it up.

"Come on Priscilla, please talk to me." Bobby pleaded as he stood next to Priscilla's locker. The brunette continued to stay silent as she placed her books in her locker. "Priscilla, I know you can hear me."
Priscilla scoffed as she rolled her eyes and zipped up her backpack. "Wow, you actually know something peabrain? What are you sorry for? Soccer try outs, or your best friend pulling his shit?"
"Soccer try outs and the cafeteria incident was Johnny's idea." Bobby said
Priscilla rolled her eyes as she closed her locker. "Of course it was." she mumbled
"We're just messing around with him." Bobby said
Priscilla put her backpack over her shoulder and heaved a sigh. "Whether you're messing with him or not, all of you need to leave him the fuck alone, got it?"
"Got it." Bobby said
"Look, I've thought about it, and I would like to talk as well." Priscilla said.
Bobby smiled brightly as he embraced the beautiful brunette. She didn't push him away. Instead, she welcomed his embrace. "Thank you Priscilla, I'll be at your place after practice."
Priscilla smiled softly as she pulled away. "Yeah, we'll see won't we? Don't stand me up. I mean it Bobby."
"I promise, I'll be there." Bobby smiled
"I'll see you then."
