Westport High

Jen sighed and said in a caring way," please Sapphire don't shut me out....friends need to stick together, tell me what happened I can at least try to help."

Jen felt almost heartbroken that she couldn't help her friend, she wanted to protect her so bad but she was failing.
Jen then said in a soft voice," please look at me, it ain't going to get better if you don't talk to someone."

Sapphire just sniffled. “Me being a stupid teenage girl.... that’s what happened...” she sighed and rubbed off her face as she hugged herself.

“He didn’t even do anything, he was just being a flirt with her and I just...” she shook her head quickly and angled her head towards the ground.

"Ah, who says I do not have a boyfriend?" She asked and stepped away, being in the mood to be a tease, yet she looked after the girl in slight worry.

"Yes, my name is Maddie. It would be nice if you showed me around, I pretty much just got thrown here."
The female mustered the handsome male and tilted her head.

He smirked. "Even if you did have a boyfriend, you'd probably drop him real quick. "

Jacob winked. "Because as soon as your little eyes laid on this sexy hunk, you wanted it" he shrugged and chuckled.

"I know you want it" laughing he placed a comforting hand on her shoulder. "Come on then"

He began to lead her around, pointing out things of interest.

She rolled her eyes and chuckled at him, looking at her feet before mustering everything he pointed at.

As they were done, Maddie looked at him intently. "Oh, by the way, Jacob?" She asked and gave him a slight smirk. "Next time you twist the truth, be a little more convincing."

Jen sighed sadly and pulled Sapphire softly so she would face Jen, she then said in a calm and reassuring way," it's ok, it's not the end of the world...I know you didn't mean any harm." She then smiled and said," here give me a hug.."
She then hugged Sapphire in an attempt to calm her down.

Eventually Jen broke the hug and said," remember you can always talk to me, you will always have a friend even if you think you don't..."

Sapphire sniffled and nodded, holding onto her for a bit longer before letting go and rubbing her face off. She sighed shakily. “I’m so stupid....”

She let out a soft giggled and gently m twined her fingers with Jen’s. “let go back in....”

Jen smiled and said in a calm way," your not stupid Sapphire, everyone makes silly mistakes... I have made plenty in my time so don't worry your not the only one."

Jen then held Sapphire's hand and said with a smile on her face," only if you want to, you don't have to if you don't want to...no matter what you decide I am always going to be with you."

Sapphire smiled sweetly and walked back into the auditorium with a heavy sigh. She stayed close to Jen and kept her head angled down.

Her hand softly squeezed the others and she glanced around at all of the shadows mushed together as they began to work on a scene.

Her name was called and she quickly hurried onto the stage with a soft smile and a wave to Jen.

Jacon scowled at Maddie.

"I wasn't twisting the truth. Sapphire is an asshole. " pushing her back, he strutted off.

"Get out of my face " he sighed and flipped her off.

Jen smiled and walked into the classroom with Sapphire becoming increasingly protective of her.
She then watched as Sapphire went onto the stage, she whispered," good luck." To her just before she went up for encouragement.

Jen then sat back down watching Sapphire but also keeping an eye on Jacob, if he even dared to upset her for a third time today she would personally see to it that he would never hurt Sapphire again.

Sapphire stood in her spot and held her music, glancing in the general direction of the director as he started talking about the play and everything. He then called Sapphire and Jacob to try their song together.

Sapphire gulped and walked to the center of the stage, her eyes wide and her hands already shaking.

Jacon just smirked at her. He seemed confident and cocky, as he usually was.

"Scared Sapphire?" He laughed softly. "Don't worry, soon enough they will kick you from the show " he patted her arm.

"I'll send you a picture though.. oh wait.. " he laughed and a few others did as well.

Sapphire took a shaky breath before she let a suddenly confident smirk rise to her lips. She set her music down and started the song, walking towards him in a slow, confident, semi-sexy way with her hands on her hips.

She had every song down perfectly already, she knew the musical well so she didn’t even need to worry. She only worried about who was in it. As she moved she did different hand motions, facial expressions, and when if came to his turn she froze and raised an eyebrow at him.

"Your registration is complete, Dylan, you can go to whatever class you have next..", one member of a staff said in an office nearby the theater.Despite the excited smile the man had given to the boy, the student was somewhat uninterested in whatever would eventually come to him at ,his... 9th school. "I wish you a nice day.", said the man to Dylan when he was at the door. "Thank you.", he replied promptly and left the office with his timetable in a hand and his bag in another.

He began walking and couldn't help but think "I wonder how long it would be that mom decides to move again, do making friends and interacting with people still have their points?".Dylan didn't know how obvious it was that he was new, perhaps it was more obvious than he thought.

He took a peek in the theater and it seemed people were having a musical, Dylan decided to approach the crowd and watch it, he had a love-hate relationship with the fact that he had to take theater.

Maddie flinched as she got flipped off just like that. Well, maybe this school wasn't different.

The brunette looked down at her muddy boots as she walked back to the class, flopping down on a seat.
