"Don’t know what’s worse, morning classes or the animals taking the classes with me."

"Animals? Where are you taking classes?!?"

Milo’s eyes lasered in on a cluster of guys sitting a few rows in front of him. They looked exactly how the young men of the Upper East Side were supposed to look — hair-gelled, naturally tanned, pressed blazer-wearing, blue-blooded guys. Even in his school uniform, there was no way Milo could be mistaken as one of them. Those were the kind of guys that Peyton was into — so why did she like him? It was a mystery to Milo, but god he really needed a fucking cigarette.

He snapped out of his own head when he heard a voice from beside him. Milo didn’t recognize it as Kim’s until he actually faced the fellow Brooklynite, who had taken a seat beside him. “‘Sup, Kross?” he asked, giving her a smirk paired with an empathetic eye roll. They were both kind of minorities here at Winston, and Milo guessed that she didn’t want to be here almost as much as him.

Having Milo in her first period class did make her feel a lot better. Yeah, he is in fairly deep with the Upper East Side, but he was a Brooklynite no matter who he was with. It was a huge refresher from the people who she has been talking to. The teacher started talking about the year and his goals for the class, but Kim didn't really care. Mitch left for some job opportunity and he wasn't coming back for a while. She was at home alone, relying on the checks she's getting from her dad to stay in that stupid apartment for another month.

Eventually the teacher stopped talked and everyone was able to talk amongst themselves. Kim turns to her side so that she is facing Milo and says, "This year is going to be very long..." She then glances out of the corner of her eyes and notices some people were staring at them. "Very, very, long...."

It was the first day back at school, or “hell” as Milo had been calling it for the last three years, and all he wanted to do was go the fuck home. Shocker. Every time it was the same — he’d walk through the hallways as if he was ghost, a ghost that people would whisper about as if he wasn’t there at all. He didn’t mind it, really, Milo just could think of better ways to spend his time.

Something felt different this year, though. Eyes seemed to fall on him as he passed by, gleaming with the usual disgust and resentment but also something close to — was that admiration? He wouldn’t be stupid enough to think that sleeping with Peyton Carmichael and making friends was Katherine Roberts would impress these people, but maybe this year wouldn’t be as bad as he anticipated. His eyes scanned the numbers on the doors until he found his first period English class. Milo ducked inside and took a seat in the way, way back.

This first day of school was so different from the rest. It could have been the fact that Mitch wasn't there to wish her luck and say something stupid, or that she had to walk, so getting up at ass o'clock was necessary. It could have been the fact that her uniform felt a lot shorter than it should have, but she couldn't afford to get a new one. It could have been the fact that people were looking at her for once. They must have heard about her summer...She wasn't besties with the popular girls, but she definitely talked to them twice as much as some of the people here. She didn't like it. She wanted them to not look at her and to ignore her like they did for most of her high school career.

Okay, something had to be wrong with her skirt. People were staring at her butt and it was making her really uncomfortable. Her head was starting to spin and she just needed to get to class. Thank god it was English; she at least did her summer reading for once. She slips into the class and sees a familiar face that won't make her uncomfortable. She takes the seat in the back next to Milo and whispers, "Hey...." It wasn't her usual sass, but right now she really wasn't up for it.

"Left. He didn't say when he'd be back..."

"Hey there, I saw you last night, and you were just lovely. I know I’m not your brother, but I’m something, right?" She carefully placed a hand on the girl’s upper back and gave her a small smile. "And I’m sure he’ll come next time, right?"

Kim wipes her eyes and throws her brothers note on the ground. "No...he won't. He's going to be out of town for a while...."
