S-S-S-S-SCHOOL?

"Come ON, Lovely Rita!" Sonny groaned, dragging me to the front doors.

on Friday, I started School.

"I don't want to do it" I narrowed my eyes.
"WELL TOO BAD!" Sonny yelled. She has wanted to go to School ever since Molly brought it up.
"I don't think this is such a good idea" Kenna whispered.

Sonny and I stopped dead in our tracks and stared at Kenna.
"McKenna Beth Walters-" Sonny started.
"Sonny, I have a confession." Kenna sighed.
"What is it?" I asked.
"Actually it's two." Kenna's teal eyes were focused on her shoes.
"And they are..?" Sonny asked.
"One is that my last name really ISN'T Walters. It's Applee." Kenna sighed.

Sonny stood there for a moment, silent.

"Wow, the great Alison Harrison has shut her mouth" I joked.
Sonny swatted me. "Shurrup, Pillie"
"Are you mad?" Kenna asked, innocently.
"No! I actually like it better than Walters" Sonny brought Kenna into a hug.
"Why did you go by Walters though?" I asked.
"Because, I was kind of ashamed of the name Applee when I was younger. It was just so different. But now I know, thanks to you two, that being different is a good thing." Kenna smiled.
"Oh! I like the name Applee better than Walters" I smiled, agreeing with Sonny.

"What's the other confession?" Sonny asked.
"I don't like school" Kenna breathed.
"What? I thought you were ECSTATIC to get to school!" Sonny explained.
"Yeah, you were all smiles when Molly announced it." I exclaimed.
"It was a fake smile" Kenna sighed.
"Kenna Applee, a FAKE smile?" Sonny asked.
Kenna nodded.
"Well, don't let it happen again with the fake smile" Sonny wagged her finger at Kenna.
"Why don't you like school?" I asked, cutting to the chase.
"Kids used to make fun of me. They'd call me 'fatso' and crap like that." Kenna's teal eyes filled with tears.
"Oh Kenna!" I exclaimed, throwing my arms around her and bringing her in for a hug.
"Anyone who hurts you, hurts me." Sonny sighed.
"Sonny, are you..... crying?" Kenna asked.
"No! I'm sweating through my eyes." Sonny said, turning away.
Kenna and I shared a knowing look.

"Come on, let's get to school before this mush-fest kills me." Sonny intended.
"Sure thing" Kenna and I said.

I looked at my schedule.
"I have Art Club as an Electives." I announced.
"I have Soccer" Kenna said.
"I have Book Bash." Sonny sighed.
"BOOK BASH? There must've been a mistake" Kenna joked.

Sonny HATES books.

"Oh hey! Look, we all have the same homeroom together" I said, looking at their schedules.
"CHORUS!" We all sang in unison and ran to the auditorium.

-Chorus post. will.come.later. :]-
