For today, she was dressed in black jeans coloured shirt. She no effort clothes she could and applied a coloured lip balm so that she didn't look like emo.
Walking to school looked like a chore and she simply took the bus, even for that little of a distance and she could have walked for her regular exercise. Every student looked like they had been hit by a truck for today and most of the classes were empty.
"Hi," someone tapped her from behind. "I'm Elizabeth."
Adeline looked behind to see a blonde, chirpy girl. "Hi, I'm Adeline."
"Would you like to sit with us at lunch today?"
"Who's us?" For all she knew, they could a bunch of bullies.
"There is Marshall," she pointed to a boy and then the girl next to her, "that is Paris."
Adeline waved at them because they were already looking at her. They gave her a wave back. "Okay," she agreed. "I'd love to join you guys."
"Great!" Elizabeth gave her a charming smile.

Elizabeth was the talking the most but Marshall complemented her well. He kept up with her where Paris silently walked with Adeline.
Taking their food trays, Adeline took out her lunch bag which had what she wanted according to her hangover. She also bought some pudding.
"So, how's your life been, " she half-heartedly asked her as soon as she sat down.
"Nice," Adeline half-heartedly admitted. "Why don't you do as told you. Don't hang out with the boy that weird was. Their whole family is weird." Paris had a weird and scary gleam in them, which made Adeline warier of her. "There is a whole different community that the weird formed. Do not even talk to them, they are probably in some weird cult that eats hu—"
"Would you stop?!" Marshall hissed at her. "Paris you swore you won't say this shit again. Stop bitching about them because your father can't win the elections for being the Mayor!"
Paris's eyes immediately filled with rage, "my father can't win it because of that whole community occupying most of the town! Who would vote for my father when they support the current one!"
"Your father has a stick up his ass! He can, not talk to anyone properly without looking down at them! Of course, people didn't like him and still don't." Nobody seemed to let go of this without winning and Elisabeth almost seemed embarrassed.
"I am done with your asses! I know you pity me enough to be my friends but that's not needed." She yelled at Elizabeth and Marshall.
"And you," Paris looked at Adeline making her flinch at her heated gaze. She almost looked feral, "be careful of that family. People tend to disappear because of them. And when found, they can't be recognised." Throwing her tray in the dustbin, Paris walked out.
