Hazel's POV
* Time skip to Monday *
I woke up to my very VERY annoying alarm and in all honesty, I don't want to go to school.
I get up do my morning routine, grab some clothes and make my way to Gray's room to see what he's doing.
I find him walking out at the same time I was going to walk in. We both make our way to the kitchen side by side to find Theo scarfing down some food Luca made.
Austin was slowly eating and watching him. We sat down and Luca handed us our plates and we ate.
Eventually we all finished, and we all hoped in Austin's car and drive to school.
We have a jam sesh all the way there. Technically it's just Theo and his horrible singing but we just let him sing. We finally arrive at school and step out the car.
I turn to Gray. " You ready? " I ask. " As ready as I'll ever be. " He replied. I chuckled and turned back towards the school.
I saw so many stares and heard so many whispers but what really caught my eye was the 'Queen bee ' Addy and her minions running up to Austin.
" Hey, bab- who's this? Is this the who you've stopped talking to me for?! This?! Look at her she's dirty and ugly!! " She shouted in an annoying whiny voice.
" Who are you calling ugly?! You mole rat! " I calmly but angrily responded.
" AUSTIN! You're just gonna let some ugly girl talk to me like that?! " She shouted AGAIN!
To which he replied. " First, watch who your talking to that's my sister! And LEAVE!! I've already told you it's OVER! " He tiredly yelled.
She looked shocked and stood there for a while but eventually walked away. Gray and Theo glared at her as she walked away.
~~~~~~
Gray and I finally go get our schedules and we pretty much have the same classes. Theo shows us to our first class and we walk in.
The teacher looks at us and tiredly spoke " What are your names? " I responded " Hazel and Gray Costello. " Everyone gasps and immediately break out in whispers and stares.

I shrug then Gray and I go sit in the back if the class. I sit by a really pretty girl, she has blonde hair and great style. As soon as I sit down she talks to me " Hazel right? "
And I say " Yea and you? " She responded. " OH! Sorry my name's Eliza. " From then on we pretty much talked and I found out she's really kind and nice.
After a long VERY boring couple of hours its finally lunch. Gray and I make our way to the cafeteria and I see Eliza at a table with a girl and 3 other boys. One of which looked familiar.
We also see Austin and Theo with one girl and two boys. One of which was looking at me with the nastiest of glares.
We were gonna go to Eliza's table but then Theo called our names from across the cafeteria so we walked over there.
Once we got over there we sat down and Theo introduced them. " Hey guys! How's class? OH! This is Lyra, Sam, and Damian our best friends. " He pointed to all of them.
Lyra smiled and waved, " Hi!! I'm Lyra! " Sam smiled " Hey, I'm Sam "and Damian kept glaring and rolled his eyes. " Hey, I'm Hazel and this is Gray " I smiled back.
" Class was great a little boring but great. I met some friends that were gonna go sit with bye! " I waved.
We walked over to Eliza's table and sat down. " Hey guys! What were you doing over there at the table with the ๐๐ฐ๐ด๐ต๐ฆ๐ญ๐ญ๐ฐ'๐ด ?" She asked. " They're our brothers unfortunately. "
She gasps. " Seriously?! OH! This is Aria, Griffin, Cypress and Darius went to get food. " The girl known as Aria whispers. " She's had a crush on Austin for god knows how long. Hey I'm Aria! " I chuckle.
" Oh! That makes since. " The guy to her left speaks. " Hey, I'm Griffin but YOU can call me whatever you like. " He looks me up and down trying to flirt but failing miserably.
I chuckled even more. " I think I'm gonna stick with Griffin. " The guy to her right says. " Hey, I'm Cypress. " I respond to all of them. " Hey, I'm Hazel and this is Gray. He doesn't talk much. "
As soon as I turn my head I see the boy that looked familiar. ๐๐ฉ๐ฐ ๐ช๐ด ๐ต๐ฉ๐ข๐ต ๐ข๐ฏ๐ฅ ๐ธ๐ฉ๐บ ๐ฅ๐ฐ๐ฆ๐ด ๐ฉ๐ฆ ๐ญ๐ฐ๐ฐ๐ฌ ๐ด๐ฐ ๐ง๐ข๐ฎ๐ช๐ญ๐ช๐ข๐ณ ? Just when I think that Eliza speaks. " This is Darius. " Then I clicks.
He is my best friend I lost contact with when he moved away. I cried for months at a time. Then all the pain, hurt, and anger comes back looking at him.
I look at him and he looks at me then it clicks in his head. I didn't even notice when I jumped into his arms.
" DARIUS?! OH MY GOD! I THOUGHT I WOULD NEVER SEE YOU AGAIN! I MISSED YOU SO MUCH! " I yelled. " HAZEL?! I MISSED YOU TOO! " He yelled back.
Then the realization kicks in and I jump off of him and glare at him. He walks up to Gray " GRAY! I MISSED YOU GRUMPY! " Gray chuckles at little and smirks then gives him a bro hug.
" Hey Darius, I missed you too. " Darius then looks at me and asks. " Wh- Ohhh I'm sorry can we talk about this later? " I nodded and the bell rang. We all went to class and finished the day.
As I was walking to Austin's car with Gray, Darius yells my name. I turn around and he speaks. " HEY! Hazel, I'll give you my number so we can talk. " I respond.
" Fine." We exchange numbers and then I get in Austin's car and we drive home.
