Gabriella looked at him for a moment, then reached into her bag and pulled out a neatly stapled sheaf of papers. Thumbing through them for a moment to make sure everything was there and in order, she then handed it to him over the back of the seat, "I mentioned it to you. Twice. Did you even do the reading?" This wasn't exactly an uncommon occurrence. Sometimes it felt like she was the only one who consistently did her work, but she didn't mind. He needed all the help he could get."

since I'm back ill just have Artie at a different bus stop]
Artemisia sat on the ground with her head resting against the base of the bus stop sign. She had missed her own stop so her mother decided that she would drive her to a different one on her way to work since her school was in the opposite direction of her mom's work. The green haired girl was half asleep and she could barely stand let alone keep her eyes open. Though she could hear the bus as it drove up, she didn't get up, deciding to wait until she could hear the squeaking and creaking of the doors opening.

This wasn't exactly an uncommon occurrence. Sometimes it felt like she was the only one who consistently did her work, but she didn't mind. He needed all the help he could get." Finn watched her grab her paper from her backpack and practically snatched it from her and to look through it as fast of he could, trying to absorb at least some information. "No! I thought it was only for the AP classes!" he cried and dropped his head back on the seat, "Ugh... i hate school..." he whined then handed Gabriela her paper. The fact that Gabriela had mentioned the paper to him on multiple occasions was very true, but Finn had the attention span of a goldfish and a memory even shorter. He was amazed that people still expected anything at all out of him. |

She shrugged, stowing it back into her bag, "Well, do you have study hall before English? Maybe you can type something up really quickly." As the bus began to slow and approach the next stop, she nudged her bag off the seat and glanced out the window to see familiar green hair at the stop. Leaning back, she looked over at Finn and said, with a completely deadpan expression, "If all else fails, you could always set off the fire alarm."

Artemisia groaned as the bus stopped in front of her. She sighed as she stood up and adjusted her messenger bag as it bunched up her oversized cardigan which was beige today to go with her brown dress. As she sat in the back with the others she settled in her seat as she rested against the metal wall of the bus. "Wake me up when we get there," she told them sleepily.

Skaiste watched them both, smiling to herself. "I'm just glad I don't have you guys' English class." She said when they quieted, twirling a piece of her wavy hair around her finger as Artemisia to joined them.

Finn sighed heavily and shook his head, "I don't even know at this point. Maybe I can get it switched for a different English class or something. But the fire alarm is always an option, wouldn't be the first time I've done it. Nothing like getting detention or suspended on the first day! But I can't ditch my girls! What would you do without my hotness around!!" He exclaimed. Somebody was feeling lovely this morning, maybe it was the panic of this reading assignment that got his adrenaline going.

Gabriella just looked at him for a moment, blinking in the face of his overwhelming energy. Without cracking a smile, she tilted her head, "A lot. You are a very distracting individual." She glanced over at the napping Artie, then shrugged, "I'm sure you'll figure something out, you're smarter than you look." She kicked her feet up onto the empty seat beside her and leaned back, listening to the severa conversations filling the bus. Everyone was pretty much talking about the same things: summer, school, missed assignments, and how hot others were. It was oddly predictable and rather dull, so she turned her attention back to Finn and smiled slightly, "It'll be fine."

Skaiste rolled her eyes and giggled. "I don't think the fire alarm is a good idea." She told them, remembering the last time it was 'accidentally' set off last year. "Save it for the end of the year, when you're out of time to fix your grades. Oh, and make sure I'm not in school that day. Once is enough when it comes to standing in a downpour for twenty minutes.". Feeling the bus slow to turn into the school parking lot, she scooted forward on her seat and swung her bag onto her shoulder.

"I take that as a compliment!" Finn said with a proud grin and winked at Gabriella. Finn scoffed and rolled his eyes but didn't say anything about her telling him that he was smarter than he looked. It would have helped a lot more if she said he was smarter than he thought he was. Oh well. Nothing he can do about it now. "How do you think this year is gonna go Gabby?" he asked suddenly, curious about her own thoughts.

btw Artemisia is based off this picture of Gumi I have from Donut Hole so her hair is like that. just to have an idea of what she looks like]
Artemisia was sound asleep and unaware that they were near the school. She used her messenger bag as a pillow and now took up her whole row as she slept. She was by no means a morning person, not fully being awake until lunch which was her breakfast. Her bangs fell to the side as she breathed softly, her body not meant to be up at this time of day.

Gabby sat up slightly as the bus hissed and lurched to a stop, shouldering her bag. Giving Finn a quick glance from the corner of her eye, she shrugged, "Better than last year." Last year had been an interesting one, but far too much personal drama for her own liking. She preferred to watch the drama take place, not be directly involved in it. At least this year, things should be a little quieter and give her a chance to focus on her schoolwork. She stood and, glancing over, poked Artie with her foot to try and awaken her.

"I'll keep the fire alarm in my prank book for now. but do not underestimate me, I will do it." he said dramatically, widening his eyes to look a little crazy. Finn stayed slouched down in his seat until the bus was stopped. It was then that he slipped on his backpack and stood, "Artie!!" he whined, "Wake up! It's time to go to prison!" he called and shook her shoulder vigorously, trying to be a pain on purpose.

(Okay :3)
Skaiste stood up as the bus came to a stop, sliding out of the seat row to make her way down the aisle, though pausing halfway down to wait for her friends. "What'd you guys have first period?" She asked, trying to remember what she had herself before she got into the school and had to there.

Artemisia groaned and weakly slapped whoever was shaking her. She opened her eyes slightly and rolled out of her seat to stand up. "Time for my wake up playlist," she mumbled as she took out her phone as she held the button to turn on her headphones. She found the playlist marked "Wake Up NicoNico" and pressed shuffle. Suddenly the version of Echo including Amalee with other singers blasted from her headphones around her neck. "What did you all talk about while I was asleep?"

Finn stuck his tongue out at Artie as she smacked his hand but he was simply playing with her. "We were talking about how bad you snore. Lordy girl, you gotta get that checked or something!" he chuckled and winked at her. How was Finn this energetic so early? He would probably crash towards the end of second period and would be exhausted for the rest of the day. Maybe he would get one of his older friends to grab him an energy drink from the store during lunch since freshmen and sophomores aren't allowed off campus. Talking about annoying. "I have history first period, boo, better than science though, I hate science."

Gabriella followed Skai down the aisle, tilting her head slightly as she tried to recall her schedule, "I think I'm in history too." As she heard Artie's music begin to play, she turned slightly and eyed the headphones with an irritated glance, "Aren't those meant to be on your ears?"

Artemisia looked at Gabriella with groggy confusion. "I always have them like this. You are probably just jealous of my music." She was awake enough to tease the girl which was something. She thought about what her first class was as the song changed to Crystalline. "What class do I have first?" she asked her friends. "And do I really snore?"

Finn followed last off of the bus, grinning lightly as he heard Gabriella say her first period. "Yay! I won't be alone with a bunch of weirdos!" he cheered quietly then looked down at Artie in front of him, "Why are you asking me? I didn't hack into the school's scheduling system to look at your schedule! And no, you don't snore, I was just messing with you. Buzz kill."

Artemisia let out a sigh of relief as she checked her phone for her schedule. "Oh good," she began turning down the volume as she switched the song to Bad Apple so that she could put the headphones on her ears, "that means I can sleep in class." She often did that for her Japanese songs so that people didn't judge her, well around people that weren't those with her now. She had the volume just right so that she could hear the conversation but the music would keep her up enough to function. "Oh I have English first. Now I can really sleep in class." She got off the bus with the others and looked at the rest of her schedule.

Gabby's eye twitched for a moment as she got off the bus and turned back to look at Artie, "Why not sleep at night and actually pay attention in class?" With a sigh, she shook her head and continued onward, looking up at the familiar building that towered over them. Opening the glass door, she held it for her friends, gesturing for them to go ahead with her free hand.

"I have English first, too." Skai told Artie, before tasking her own schedule out to look it over. "Do you have Mrs. Montcroix, or someone else? Also I have science second period, with Mr. Brown, any of you there with me?" She really hoped some of her friends were in science, above all, since it that class that had to do labs with other students often, and she had never been very close with anyone else at the school.

"Thanks Gabs." he said as he walked through the door she held open for them. "I have science second, english third, then electives for the last two." Finn said with a small shrug, summing his schedule up now so he wouldn't have to later. Though he knew he'd be looking at it a million times that day to drill it into his head and asking the girls what their schedules were constantly as well.

Gabs tilted her head, ticking off her classes on her fingers, "History, then english, my AP Art History class, study hall, then science and Algebra 2."

Artemisia nodded her head to her music as she set this song on repeat. "I think I have that one," she told Skai as she smiled her thanks at Gabriella. "I have science after as well. Is that before or after breakfast? When is breakfast? Either way then I have Personal Fitness and Latin." By 'breakfast' she actually meant lunch. "And if I slept at night then how would I have time for my anime and talking to my friends who are awake when its night here? I met some cool people in Australia when I went back in June." Artemisia's family was spread out across the globe with some in Europe and Australia on her mom's side and some in Korea and Japan from her dad's side, though she looked more like her mother. Because of that she often traveled one month during the summer to visit relatives somewhere.

Skai giggled and looked over at Artie. "Breakfast is right now, but I have lunch fifth period, so you probably do, too. English, science, French, marine bio, lunch, history, art, math, and last but not least, P.E.!" She took a deep breath after reading her schedule off the them, before stuffing it back into her pocket.

(Good god what kind of school are you used to brindle?????? I have 1,2,3, lunch,4,5.)
"Jeez when you put it that way Skai, you make it sound like we'll be here for forever! Not just a few hours." Finn moaned in complaint, tempted to just wlak off to his class and meet Gabriella there.

(Really? I have nine periods X/ how long are your classes?)
Skaiste sighed but nodded sadly. "Well, we'll be here until we're eighteen, and then we'll be in college." She said, though she knew college wasn't quite as bad as high school. "So pretty much forever." she gave a quiet giggle before looking down the English wing. "I guess I should head off, see you guys next period!" She said, giving them a small wave before grabbing Artie so she wouldn't accidentally follow them.

Gabby waved goodbye, then began to head towards history. She didn't bother waiting for Finn, he was perfectly capable of catching up. Slipping into the classroom, she found a pair of seats near the windows and plopped down in one. Class wouldn't start for a few more minutes, so she pulled out her book and thumbed through it quickly to find the spot where she'd left off. Leaning back in her chair, she began to read once more, eyes flicking quickly across the page.
