BACKSTORY - September, 4th 1997. It's the beginning of Guest's senior year at Myandric High. For four years she's been the dictator of this school and running it into the ground. On the other hand it's Price's first year at Freshman year. His entire life is just starting and now his grades actually matter. It's the second week of school and it's his lunch period. He's been hearing rumors of Guest's antics and getting anxious. Suddenly the lunch room doors open and her and her entourage roll in. Just his luck. He keeps his head down and tries to eat his nachos quickly but Guests eyes keep finding his. She decides to walk over and make her move.
His eyes widen with fear and he slightly tries to duck his head. His mind swirling with anxiety and intense nerves. "This is it." He thinks nervously to himself. "My high school life is over."
I plop down in the seat in front of him. Grabbing one of his nachos and chewing slowly. I lick my fingers clean and lift his chin up softly with my knuckles. Staring into his eyes.
"You're a pretty boy, ain't you?" I say confidenly. "What's your name, Hun." I smirk mischievously.
He swallows hard. His throat bobbing. "M-my name is John." He looks afraid. His voice cracking whether from fear or pure awkwardness is unclear.
My smirk widens. "Well I'll tell you what, Johnny." I giggle. "You're an adorable little thing and I think I'll make you my little friend. I think I'll adopt this little one." I point at him and look at my friends. They all laugh. I stand up. "Get your ass up. You're sitting with me." I strut back over to my table and shove a girl out of the seat next to me.
