"I'll go get Cherry and Lily," I said as Dylan, Cody and I stood up to leave. I brushed of the dirt from my legs and stood up straight. My uniform looked wrinkled after sitting for too long.
"I'll go with you," Cody said quickly.
"No," I interupted him, "Why don't you and Dylan got to the old church first while I'll get Cherry, Lily, and maybe Jinx."
Cody started to open his mouth in protest but stopped after I gave him a look. He knew what that meant. He has to start making more friends now that we don't live in a countryside anymore. I'm so worried about him. We used to be the only kids our age in the countryside. That's why we're so close. But now that we're in the city, he should learn to socialize more.
"I'll get going now," I smiled to the both of them, then left them to go to the old church. I looked up at the gigantic school building and sighed. Everything has changed since we moved to the city. We were even applied to this new prestigious school by Cody's dad. It's been about seven months now since we moved here. Who ever knew that Cody was actually a rich kid with parents from the city.
Suddenly I felt a tap on my shoulder. I looked back to find Jinx staring blankly at me. He was just a little taller than me. He was using an oversized black jacket on top of his uniform and a black beanie with his headphones on. I smiled at him.
"Where did you come from?" I asked. He stared at me expressionlessly. His bangs was covering his left eye and his gigantic gaming headphone covered both his ears. He had pitch black hair and his mac was slipped under his arm.
"You looked very sad when you looked at the school," he said quietly, completely ignoring my question. I stared at him with surprise but regained my smile quickly.
"Was that what it looked like? I was just reminiscing, that's all. So don't worry," I smiled. He just stared at me blankly when I said that. Jinx is actually pretty sharp. He just doesn't show that much emotions. A lot of people asumed that he was emo because of the way he looks.
"Anyways, do you want to acompany me to get Cherry and Lily or do you want to go to the old church first and wait with Dylan and Cody?" I asked. He quietly pointed at me. I smiled again.
"Let's go then."
Immediately after I stepped inside the school building, people started to look at me and whisper. I ignored them while I walked in the direction to the twins' classroom. Jinx stayed close behind me all the way. As soon as we arrived Lily turned to look at me while Jinx went to Cherry to help her carry Cody's guitar.
"Oh my gosh! You should tell your boyfriend to stop making other people pick his things up! Who does he think he is?" Lily complained at me. Her long hair was tied up to a high ponytail leaving out her bangs. It was dyed bright red. Her bright blue eyes shone as she scolded me. I smiled apologetically.
"He's not my boyfriend, Lily. I apologize for causing you so much trouble," I said. Cherry walked up behind Lily with Jinx following right behind her, carrying Cody's guitar.
"It's okay, Lily. I was the one who agreed to bring his guitar when he asked," Cherry said meekly. Although Cherry and Lily are identical twins, their personalities are the complete opposite of each other. Lily was a sport star while Cherry was shy and the smartest kid in class. So people could differentiate them, Lily dyed her hair red while Cherry's hair stayed blonde. Cherry also had shoulder length hair while Lily's hair was a little longer.
"We should go quickly," I heard Jinx's voice. I had to look at him to check if it was actually him who talked. It was such a rare chance to hear his voice because he was always so quiet. I smiled.
"Yeah, we should probably go."
