Aura's pov:

"Oshiete yo oshiete yo sono shikumi wo" goes off my alarm. Yes, I am a diehard anime lover. Groaning I roll over in my bed only to fall face first on my floor. One of my many bad habits which I can't seem to get rid of. Yawning I open my eyes and am immediately attacked by the blazing sun outside. I blink a few times until my eyes adjust to the sun.

"Aurora get up! It's Monday! you are going to be late!" yells my mom from downstairs.

Monday? Late? What does she mea- OH SHIT. I am doomed. I got school today. I hurry off to the bathroom and clean up. I throw on the first piece of clothing that I see - a black hoodie, jeans and a pair of boots. I stumble down the stairs and collect myself as I walk into the kitchen.

"Aurora Sevyn get your arse down here right now!" yells my mom.

"Jeez mom calm down" I say, giving her my usual blank expression. She sighs as I chug down my orange juice and get out of the house.

Now you may be wondering why I said the usual blank expression. Well I am the type of girl who shows no one any emotions and rarely smile. That is with outsiders and my family. With my friends, it's a completely different matter. Around them I don't have to put up my guard and mask my emotions. Around them I can be free. I can be myself.

"Aura? Aura!" Someone says pulling me out of my thoughts. "Huh?", I say. I turn around to find my host running towards me. I automatically smile. My host aka my best friend is Scarlette. Now when I say host I literally mean my host and I am her parasite. It's a nickname that we gave each other. Crazy I know, but that's just us. "Scarly!", I rush to her and we both hug.

Here's a fact. Scarly is one of the best huggers and she always smells like vanilla so that's a plus point. Oh and we call her Scarly for short as Scarlette seems too long. By we, I mean our squad. It consists of me, Scarly, Flo, Andy, Cody and Zach. It has been the 6 of us since middle school. I have nicknames for everyone and trust me when I say that they are weird, I mean it. I call Cody punching bag or dum dum. Andy is short for Anderson. I usually call him bb (baby bro) or sweetie when he gets on my nerves. And Zach.... Well I used to call him boo boo but recently I realized what that word means so I just call him Zach now. I couldn't find an appropriate name for Florence so I just stuck with Flo.

I looked back at my best friend and slightly smiled. Scarly is naturally pretty. She has waist length, bronzed brown curly hair. Rare green eyes which always light up whenever she laughs or talks about something she likes. She is about an inch taller than me. That makes her 5'6.

Me on the other hand....well I'm her polar opposite. I have jet black hair with blue highlights. My hair is short (shoulder length) and wavy around the edges. My hairstyle covers one of my eyes. I have electric blue eyes like my mom's. I got dimples and thus was named dimple girl in middle school which really ticked me off. I have an average height of 5'5. In other words, I am just plain. Or we can say, overall I look like my genes went wrong.

Other than our appearances, we have a lot of similarities. We both are fucked up, MAJORLY INSECURE (I don't understand why she is so insecure even after having a pretty face though she would never agree with me),have annoying little sisters, have family issues, and the list could go on and on.

Anyways, back to wherever we were.

"It's a Monday." I say after we pull away.

"Yeahh.... Mondays are when major shit happens. Ughhh. I really don't want anything to happen today."

"Keep your fingers crossed even though I'm pretty sure nothing's gonna happen" I replied and we both walked into our home room.

Boy did I know how wrong I was .

Scarlette's pov:

What Aura said did really make me worried. Literally every monday of this year has been.....well, eventful and not really in good ways. I started to think about everything that could go wrong today and I didn't like any of the scenarios I imagined. I pushed these thoughts to the back of my mind, which isn't really difficult considering how distractive the people around me are. (Oh c'mon, don't take it that way! Have some innocence).

Well lucky for me none of those things happened. What happened was way way worse and honestly, very unexpected. I mean normally what happens is connected to a certain person.......and well this wasn't.

I turned back to my friends and tried to pick up on what they were talking about. I am literally best friends with the world's 5 most mentally ill people, which is kind of the reason I fit in so easily. They will do the weirdest things and actually make it seem normal, which honestly, I consider a quality.

It was soon time for our first period, which happened to be Maths, ughh. Don't get me wrong, I love the subject itself, but your teacher plays a huge role in how much you like a subject and our teacher is........... well, she is an old spitting clown. The class was unbearably boring. Mrs. Fiona was explaining the same simple sum for the thousandth time and would continuously spit on random people. Now I know she doesn't do it intentionally but hey that doesn't excuse her for doing it. Suddenly something hit my arm. I turned around to see a paper ball lying on the floor. Andy gave me a look and I immediately understood what it was. I picked it up and read it and then passed it to Aura. After she read it, she smirked and we all looked at each other with a familiar mischievous glint in our eyes.

Here's the thing. Me, Andy and Aura, we're partners in crime. We would always do something fun and break the rules but we always got away with it. Arsen was the naive one in our group. We all trapped him and put the blame on the poor fellow. The look on his face when he got confronted or accused was totally worth it. Flo and Zach would occasionally join us but now Zach doesn't because of Aura. Things were pretty awkward with Zach having feelings for Aura and Aura considering him a brother.

Flo on the other hand, was busy most of the time executing her own plans. Her actions were also worth it. She always manages to make the whole class laugh and that's one of the reasons why no one hates her. She is also known as the class clown.

Aura and Andy whisper shouted my name to get me out of my trances.

"What? What?!" I ask them, startled by how much they were shouting.

"So you up for it?" Aura asked me with a curious look.

I give her a 'really?' look. "Umm yes!!" I said in a 'duh' tone. " Anything to not listen to her explain that step one more time". I looked at her, she was still screaming in her unusually shrill voice, trying to get us to pay attention.

"Flo, Flo, Flo! FLORENCE!" I called the girl who was zoned out, as usual.

"Huh? What?"

"Do you still carry around your rubber lizard?" I asked her, rather impatiently.

I had no intention of getting caught talking and then getting spitted on. That is honestly the worst punishment you could get for simply talking.

"Yea, I think I have it. Why?" Flo replies.

"Just give it to me and play along. Okay?" She just nods while giving me a slightly confused and suspicious look.

"Alright guys, it's showtime" I say, giving them a dramatic look.

Soon Mrs. Fiona made her way over to our desks, placed facing each other so that we could work better in a group.

Flo catches up on what we were planning. Her expressions change into one of the mischievous one and she gets her game face on. As Mrs.Fiona gets closer, I look back one last time at my friends and we have one of those conversations where we just understand each other without using words.

"Dear Miss, I failed to understand that step." says Aura, sarcasm visible in her voice which Mrs.Fiona didn't notice of course

"Which step, Aurora?" she replies, coming towards us in long strides.

When she reached our table, Aurora distracted her while I slowly put the rubber lizard near her shoe. I nod at Andy and he smirks before yelling " MISS THERE IS A LIZARD AT YOUR FEET ! YOU ARE GOING TO SQUISH IT! "

"What? Where?!..... AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH," screams Mrs. Spitmachine, looking bewildered.

She jumped over and stumbled out of the classroom still screaming. It was eerily quiet until everyone processed what just happened and the whole class burst into laughter. Raina Herondale, the nerd of our class shot us a look of disapproval and went to fetch the teacher.

Mrs.Spitmachine came back while we were still laughing. She gave us a nasty look and started coming in our direction. Flo had her fist in her mouth as she tried to stop her laughter. (Key word here- tried.)

"Miss Raymonds, Miss Seveyn, Miss Katherine, Mr. Kyle and Mr. Cody," she sneered at us. "Whose rubber lizard is this?" us being us, we all pointed at Cody and it took him about a minute to understand what was happening. His eyes widened and he started saying how he didn't own that lizard, while shaking his head so fast I actually thought it would come off.

"But I-"

"Denial will not get you anywhere, Mr.Cody"said the spit fountain we had for a teacher, sounding rather satisfied, "You are paying a visi-"

She was cut off by a loud tapping sound on our speakers which was used to give announcements. What was said after gained a collective groan and small outburst of protests from the students as they were told something they never thought they would hate to hear.
