| �So how was your summer Mikey? Meet any hotties ?� The group leaned in closer, ready to hear the summer exploits of Michael Guerin. �Like any other summer boys. Sun, sand and of course hotties.� Michael grinned and leaned back. Of course he was lying. He spent the summer visiting his grandma in Florida but the wasn�t about to tell them that. This was what was expected from him. This is what they wanted to hear. And who was he to stop them from hearing what they wanted to? �So?� Alex asked. Michael looked up at him puzzled. �Details Mikey, details.� �Sorry boys Michael Guerin never tells.� Groans erupted from the group of males around him. �Come on man. Give us something. I tell you everything.� Alex groaned. �You my friend have not told me one single thing about what you get up to with the chicks.� �That�s because there is nothing to tell. But if there was I�d tell you.� Michael chuckled, but shook his head. �Look can we get onto something else. Kyle your pretty quiet. What�s up?� Kyle looked up. �Huh?� �How was Canada?� �Oh you know how it is. All over me, man. The girls could not get enough of me.� Michael noticed something was off about Kyle but he wouldn�t prod him now in front of the guys he�d ask later. For now he was just happy to watch Isabel Evans run around the track, from the bleachers where they all sat. �Now that is what I call a fine specimen of the female form, gentlemen.� �Hey that specimen is my sister.� Max piped up. Michael held up his hands in defence. �Calm down Max, I was just saying.� He looked down at Isabel who at this point had stopped running, and was drinking from a bottle of mineral water. "Yeah I sure as hell wouldn't mind gettin me a piece of that." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Maria looked around at her new surroundings. It was a small town full of wacky alien memorabilia but this was now her new home. She stood awkwardly in the morning bustle of students rushing to get to classes on time. She was waiting for her �guide� who was suppose to show her around the school but she was already ten minutes late. Suddenly a curly haired blonde girl was standing right in front of her, talking a mile a minute. �Your Maria right?� Before Maria could even react the girl carried on. �I�m Tess. They told you I�d be your guide right? Well there�s not much to show you but I�ll help you get settled in. Let me see your time table.� Maria handed the girl over the paper. �Wow you �ve got almost the identical time table to me. That�s probably why they chose me to be your guide. I was wondering why they would do that. I mean I�m not exactly miss A grade science genius like Liz, so I guess that�s it. Wait, what am I saying you have no clue who I�m talking about. Wait have I told you my name?� Maria just nodded. She was finding it hard to keep up the girl. �Right. Good. Well no use standing here and yappin�. We got lessons to get to. Come on.� She grabbed Maria�s hand and dragged her down the corridor. TBC |
