Riley had arrived at the school yesterday. It had been pretty nerve wracking the whole event. He'd said his goodbyes to his mom and brother and then was left there. Just left. Sitting in the Lounge with nothing to do Riley flicked through a book which he had brough with him from home. Looking around the room Riley began to bite on his lip. Nobody else was there right now, Which was good because he didn't do very well in big crowds.
He opened the book and flicked through the pages, He'd read this a few times and had just picked it before leaving the house yesterday. Needing something to do in the car while they drove here.

Ginevra walked in, smiling while skipping. It wasn't the nicest day outside, it was somewhat rainy and this brightened her mood. She loved the rain. She then noticed she was not alone in the room. She stopped and looked at the boy, her head thingyed to the right. "Well, hey there." she spoke suddenly, her voice light and a little higher than normal. She almost laughed at herself but just grinned instead. She could be so weird when it came to seeing new people at times. She really hoped he wouldn't think she was an idiot, as she was pretty sure with the faces she was probably making, involuntarily she looked like one.

Dominique ran through the pouring rain to get to the nearest shelter. She did enjoy rain, but she was carrying all of her FINALLY finished homework, and she didn't feel like re-doing it (since it had taken her so long to do in the first place). She noticed that she had ran into the Lounge, and she noticed one person, who she thought to have been sitting alone. "Ginevra! Look at this, man!" she exclaimed out to her best friend. waving the completed homework towards her. "Finished homework, suckers! Finally, for the first time in my WHOLE LIFE!" She had to put an emphasis on 'whole life'.
Looking up after pushing her long, black and wet hair out of her eyes, she noticed that Ginevra was not alone. A boy was there with Ginevra. Immediately Blake turned red, feeling stupid for screaming out about how she had finally done her homework, and looking like a fool because of it (waving it around). "Oh, uh, hey man..." she said to him, not knowing what else to say. She didn't know what else to say, and this boy could definitely have her tongue-tied for a long time.

Ginevra burst out laughing when Blake came running in and didn't notice the second person in the room. She then turned the laugh into a grin so she could reply, "Well, good job; and nice volume when you said 'Whole Life'." she pointed out, looking at the unknown person from the corner of her eye. "He probably thinks were losers already." she commented to Blake quietly. One thing that she knew was that tons of people avoided them too, because they were 'out of the ordinary', not occasionally but frequently.

Wishing that her blush would go away, she laughed at Ginevra's replies to her outbursts on the way in. Blake was actually quite glad that she had a friend that would a) cope with her being so annoyingly weird, and b) be annoyingly weird with her. Quickly, she whispered a reply back to Ginevra. "In case you haven't noticed, umm, EVERYONE thinks we're losers." Well, at least, a lot of people told Blake that back at the orphanage and a lot of people steered clear of them in hallways at Preston.

When the silence of the lounge was broken Riley looked up quickly a blush rising on his cheeks, He looked away quickly and shook his head in answer to Ginevra comment about him thinking they were loosers. "I don't...think your loosers" He said slowly getting up from his chair and re-settling himself down

Jeeze, that's a first, he doesn't think that we're losers! Blake thought to herself. Not many people actually had that same response. Blake was vaguely reminded of one time when she had scared a person right away from her. That did happen a lot. She noticed that Riley had a blush on and, once again, she was reminded of her blush. Oddly enough, knowing that she was blushing only made her blush more.
Deciding to at least say thank you to Riley for not thinking that they were the Royal Family of Odd, she said, "Well, thanks for not thinking that. You know, we don't get that a lot..." She was suddenly aware that she still had her slightly damp homework in her hand and she shoved it back into her bag, hearing it crumple as she pushed it in fast.

Ginevra was suprised when Riley told them they weird actually weird. She waited, as she thought he was kidding, and then blushed a little but not nearly as much as Blake and Riley seemed to be. "Thanks, bud." she commented with a smile. She then looked at Blake who was crumpling her homework. "Be more careful with the damp papers, they'll rip and you'll have to do them again." she reminded her, rolling her eyes. She knew for a fact, Blake wouldn't want to do all over agian.

Megan came into the lounge. She was very nervous because the only person that she had met was Ginevra. She brought a book with her that she could read incase no one was there or no one talked to her. That was her private fear that she would not make any friends at all and would be stuck at the huge school by herself. She sat down pulled out her book and started to read.

Blake had noticed someone else come in, but was too busy trying to carefully shove her damp homework into her bag without it ripping to look up. Once it was in, she looked up over at the person who had just came into the room. She slightly recognized the girl sitting and reading as Megan, a girl she had seen Ginevra with once. She was going to say something to her, but suddenly, she heard a rip, and she grimaced. My homework! she thought.
Looking back down at her papers, she realized that it had just ripped the corner and she could still hand it in. "I really am handicapped, aren't I? she said, probably loud enough for Megan to hear.

Ginevra laughed when her homework ripped and just before she could say 'i told you so' she saw that Megan had walk into the room looking rather nervous and somewhat shy for that much. She smiled and thought she try and help out a bit but was caught off guard when Blake called herself handicapped and this caused her to start laughing, once again.

Alex walked up behind Ginerva, Blake, and Megan. "BOOOO!!" He said hoping to scare them and then before they could scream jumped back and dove behind the couch infront of the smoothie machine. He dug around in his pocket for lose change and pulled out four quarters. He then jumped up and sliped in two quarters and cought a Dr.Pepper as it was being vended. He then ran over and started to get a smoothie waiting for the hoping scream.

Ginevra wasn't scard one bit and as she looked over at Riley she wondered if he was yet to think they were weird. After a couple seconds of thought she turned back in Alex's direction. She could see in his facial expressions that he wanted them to scream so she grinned and did a fake scream, for his sake. She then held in her laugh and waited to see if he had actually scard any of the others in the room.

Alex jumped at the fake scream. "Wow Ginerva. Use your quiet voice." He then burst out laughing and siped the smoothie. He set the smoothie on some random kid's head and popped open the Dr.Pepper. He then took off the smoothie when the kid looked up. He walked over and sat on a bean bag chair and grabed the remote. "Weee T.V.!" He said happily and fliped through the channels.

Ginevra rolled her eyes, like she cared if she used her 'inside voice' it really wasn't something she was likley to do, even if he was being sarcastic. She then glanced over to the t.v. as he flicked through the channels. It didn't look like there was anything interesting on that would catch her attention so she sighed and just looked at the ground, boreder then ever.
