HUMAN LUNA

Chapter 7: Part 2

"You guys know each other?" asked Blake with a smile.

"Yeah, that's my sister," said Maddie sheepishly.

"Wait, you guys are sisters?" asked Karlie Ann. "You guys look nothing alike."

"Yeah, we know, Skipper, you're supposed to be in class. Why are you here?" Kendra asked, glaring at Maddie.

"Blake wanted me to eat lunch with him," she said, not meeting Kendra's eyes.

"Well, say goodbye to Blake because you're going back to class," Kendra said, picking up her things.

"Barbie, why are you being such a brat? Leave me alone," Maddie spat, plopping down onto the empty seat.

"You guys have funny nicknames," said Greyson.

"That's their real names," I said back to him.

"Wait, your real name is Barbie? And you're Skipper?" said a laughing Karlie Ann.

I looked at Kendra, who was beyond pissed.

"Skipper, stand up now. I'm taking you back to class," Kendra ordered, grabbing Skipper's arm.

"Barbie, you're so annoying," whispered Maddie.

Blake went to stand up when he was pushed down by Ashton.

Then Ashton spoke.

"Barbie, calm down," Ashton said, placing his hand on Kendra.

When his hand landed on Kendra, she tensed up but then relaxed, almost leaning into his touch.

But she regained her focus.

"Don't call me that," she raged.

Then she and Skipper were walking out of the cafeteria, leaving me with a confused Greyson, an amused Karlie Ann, and a sad Blake and Ashton.

"Hey, so we are having a party tomorrow night, and you and those two dolls should come," said Karlie Ann, wiping away her watery eyes.

"Karlie Ann!" growled Greyson.

"What? They seem like fun! She said, cracking up again.

After lunch, I headed to my locker to grab my gym shoes.

As I was taking out my bag, I felt a presence behind me.

I turned and ran into a hard chest.

"Woah there, champ. Take it easy," said a masculine voice.

I looked up to see Aaron looking down at me.

"Hey, Aaron," I said, giving him a smile.

"Hey, Luce, do you want to walk to the gym together?" He asked.

"Sure," I said, closing my locker.

We started walking in silence until Aaron broke it.

"So, I saw you with Greyson and his group earlier."

"Yeah, they ate lunch with us," I said, looking forward.

"I will be careful around them; they are quite dangerous."

"Well, what about you?" I asked.

"What about me?" He smirked.

"Should there be anything I should be cautious of?" I asked with a smile.

"I guess you'll have to wait to find out." He winked, opening the gym door for me.

As soon as I walked in, I was bombarded by Kendra.
