Huey:
Hueys alarm went off at 6:00 A.M. He dreaded the idea of going back to school, which was sad because he loved school. It's the one place he feels accomplished.
If he faked sick his brothers would know what's going on, he couldn't let that happen. Besides he's the one who chose to face this alone. It's too late to talk to his brothers. It couldn't possibly be worse then yesterday right?
Huey walked downstairs to find Lena and Webby at the breakfast table talking, She must've slept over or something, Dewey was talking Dellas ear off and Louie was just playing on his phone. Everything was as it should be.
Webby was telling Lena the story of when Della showed up, "And that's when Della showed up at the door, Scrooge dropped the quil on the floor and it crashed into a million pieces".
"Oh my gosh"Lena said.
"Do you like, live here now?"Huey asked.
"Uh yeah, Scrooge didn't tell you?"Lena asked.
"I guess you've been so preoccupied with your mom and school I forgot to tell you"Webby said.
She had no idea how right she was "Webby, next time one of your weird friends move in I'd like to he informed".
"What are the odds of this happening again?"Webby asked.
"What are the odds of it happening the first time?"He asked.
Violet:
Violets alarm went off at 5:00 AM, she liked to get an early start to play violin, eat breakfast and maybe read a little while before school to ease her nerves. It helped until she actually walked into the school building, weirdly enough it reminded her of that saying 'The valley of the shadow of death' but that's a very dramatic thought.
After morning period she thought maybe it wasn't so dramatic after all, after she ran into both Erica and Rachel in the hall. "Hey Vi, whatcha got there?"Rachel asked.
Violet looked the other way and ignored her, she'd tried this a million times and it hasn't ever worked, why did she think it would this time? Erica grabbed her and slammed her into the locker.
"Excuse me, I was talking to you"Rachel said, she took the library book violet was holding "What's this?"She asked.
Violet panicked for a single second but then felt a slight relief when she found out it was just the library book. "It's not mine, it belongs to the school library you nitwit".
"What a shame"Rachel smiled ripping the book page by page onto the floor, the kids around them just stared and didn't say or do anything. Violet made a promise to herself that day that if she ever saw this happen to someone else that she would do something about it and then...
"Don't you people have anything better to do?"
Huey:
He didn't want to get involved with this. He wanted to walk away and mind his own business but he's been in bad situations like this before and nobody did anything about it. He really needed someone to do something about it.
"What are you going to do? Solve a math problem?"Rachel asked as everyone laughed. It really wasn't that clever why was everyone laughing and where are the teachers?
"No but I can tell mrs quacksmith about this and see what she thinks about this bullying and damaging school property".
The bell rang and the other kids left for lunch without a care in the world. All Huey could think was 'Thanks a lot jerks'.
"Loser"Rachel said punching Huey in the arm, walking to lunch with the others "See ya Vi, your boyfriend can't protect you forever"She said.
Violet:
She started picking up the paper on the floor, she wanted to thank Huey for his help but she was far too embarrassed. Looking behind her she sees that Huey is also helping her.
"The greatest works of edger Allen Poe?"Huey asked.
She nodded "My favorite poet".
"Hmm your favorite poet says a lot about you"He says.
"Says what? I'm depressed, dark insane?"She asked.
Huey smiled while grabbing the last three pages off the floor "Could be either one, or all those".
Violet laughed "Well thanks for helping, it was very compassionate"Violet was starting to walk away.
"You're violet right?"He asked.
She nodded "And you're Huebert duck, Eldest grandnephew of Scrooge Mcduck and lives in Mcduck manor with my friend webigail".
"Right. Would you like to get some lunch or something?"
"Perhaps. But not today, how about meeting me in the library tomorrow at noon?"
"It's a date".
Violet smiled this time and started to leave again.
"Wait-"
She turned around, Huey handed her ten dollars.
"For the book".
She resented "I couldn't let you pay for something you didn't break".
"But you didn't break it either, at least let me pay for half", He insisted.
After a long argument she finally took the money from him. She felt bad but at the same time she felt strange, nobody had ever treated her like that before.
Notes: Sorry it took so long to finish l hope it wont take so long next time. The next chapter will be better.
