AN: Kay, so here's the next chapter. I don't really have much to say, so I'll just go to the Disclaimer.

Chase's P.O.V.
I didn't want to tutor anyone. I didn't have the time to tutor anyone! What if there was an urgent mission alert or training? Yet, there I was, saying 'fine' to the teachers. That's how I got stuck having to tutor a straight D student every night. On the bright side, it will look good on my college application.
Her name was Avalon. She had golden brown, shoulder length hair and forest green eyes.
I don't understand how anyone can get a D in school. Well, except Adam. It's kinda self-explanatory there, but learning is so easy! I guess Avalon just doesn't care enough to put in any effort.
"Hey Chase," Leo started. I glanced up at him from my half-eaten pizza. "How came you were late? Doing extra credit assignments again?"
"No, Mr. Brian asked to speak to me before I sat down."
"FINALLY!" Leo cheered. "You got in trouble! Who's Mr. Perfect now?" he added smugly.
"Actually, it was about tutoring Avalon. So now I get to teach her english AND math!" I said in a fake-enthusiastic voice.
"It w-wasn't my fault he chose to pull you out of l-lunch!" she argued. I glared back at her, and she sunk down in her seat, staring intently at her salad.
Well, that was easy. She must be very shy. That would explain the stuttering...
"Chase," Bree hissed, giving me an extremely intense glare. "Be nice! She's my friend."
Avalon's whole face lit up like a Christmas tree. "Really!?" she exclaimed excitedly.
"Of course! Why wouldn't you be?"
"Well," Avalon said in a quiet voice, looking down at her feet. "I only had one friend back home, and even then, we were so different. She was ambitious, loud, and daring while I was quiet and shy. We were both the school's outcasts. The only thing we had in common was our love for gymnastics. I guess we became friends to avoid humiliation."
"So you like gymnastics, huh?" Leo flirted.
Typical.
I guess Avalon caught on to what he was doing because she stopped him from speaking.
"Um, Leo, I'm flattered, I really am, but I already have a date planned. I'm sorry."
"With who?" Leo asked disbelievingly
"AY OH! Sup Daven-dorks? What're you doing with my girlfriend?"
Avalon's eyes widened in excitement. She twisted herself around in her chair to greet her supposed boyfriend properly.
"Hey, Trent! What's up?"
"Trent!?" Leo squeaked. I just leaned back and watched the show with a huge smirk slapped across my face. Needless to say, I found this slightly amusing.
"That's right, Dooley. This is my girlfriend," he confirmed. I decided to ignore the situation and finish my pizza. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Trent down to Avalon's height and ask out of the corner of his mouth, "What's your name again, sweet cheeks?"
Seriously?! This is why he's never had a steady girlfriend! Well, I guess I shouldn't really be talking, seeing that I've never really had one either, but still. At least take the time to learn her name!
"Avalon," she whispered back.
Really? She's not going to do anything?
Oh, God, now I sound like one of Bree's girly magazines.
"H-him?!" Leo stuttered. "You pick him?"
Trent glared at Leo and pulled Avalon by her arm out of her chair.
"You should sit with us. Not these losers," he whispered oh-so quietly. And by that, I mean not quietly at all.
Avalon looked torn. Like she wanted to spend time with her 'boyfriend' and also stay here. Turns out she and Bree are already pretty close. Even if their only encounter prior to lunch was in the hallway.
No, I was not following Bree this morning. We both had history second period, and she can't really keep her mouth shut during class.
"Uh, but what about my friends?" Avalon asked innocently while looking up a Trent. She's only about the height as Leo, so she has quite the angle to look up.
"Friends? Ava, they're losers. Come over with me," he demanded. She looked a bit shocked, but still nodded numbly and allowed Trent to pull her over to the forbidden 'cool' table. After she was out of sight, Bree sunk down in her chair and stared at her lunch.
"I hate how Trent treats us. I didn't do anything to him!" She exclaimed. "I just wanted to have a normal friend!"
"What about Caitlyn?" Adam asked blankly.
Leo was quick to respond with a, "Adam, she said normal. Not insane."
Adam, being himself, had a puzzled look on his face but shrugged it off and started to devour the remains of his lunch.
AN: Personally, not my favorite chapter. I don't really know why though. Maybe it wasn't so bad for you guys. Tell me what you think!
