It was just another day at high school. Lee sat next to Estelle, mostly focusing on her, but he did pay attention to his schoolwork when necessary. Akito was of course at the top of class, but he wanted to stay with Estelle to keep an eye on her in class. Estelle was talking with her newest friend who seemed to blend into the background all the time, but they managed to talk.

"We have a new exchange student joining us," the teacher told his students. "She is from France, but she does know English, so don't worry about any language barriers..." she then opened the door. "Please welcome Felicity Precious Chantal Forte."

To Akito and Estelle's surprise, their cousin Felicity walked into the room with her ivory skin, dark brown hair tied in a low ponytail tied with a golden hair ribbon and a matching dress with her black boots and wore a backpack. Felicity came walking in, very nicely, but also little nervously. A few of the students oohed and awed about having a French girl in their class.

"Felicity?" Akito and Estelle whispered.

"Erm... Bonjour..." Felicity weakly waved to her future friends and classmates. She soon stopped waving as soon as she saw her cousins.

Akito and Estelle looked very curious, surprised, and astounded to see their cousin.

"Now, um, Miss Forte, do you have anything you would like to tell about yourself?" the teacher asked.

"Uh, well, I am trying to sing and I play the organ like my papa did..." Felicity shuffled her feet. "I have never been to school before in my whole life until now."

Tammy was about to make fun of her, but got her mouth covered by Megan. The blonde girl glared at the black-haired girl.

"I am sorry, sir, but I do not have much to say right now..." Felicity said to the teacher.

"That's fine, Miss Forte, you may take your seat now." the teacher replied.

Felicity nodded, then went over to take her seat.

"That's my cousin, Felicity, she's really nice, she wouldn't even hurt a fly." Estelle whispered to her friend who had long black hair that nearly covered her eyes.

"That's good to know." The black-haired girl whispered back.

Felicity took her seat and looked a little anxious. A lot of the boys looked very eager and excited about having a French girl in class. A few of the other girls looked and felt jealous because of the same reason. Tammy decided to make Felicity's first day bad by taking her own foot out so she could trip the new girl.

Felicity looked around, then yelped out as she stumbled and fell flat on the floor by Tammy's cruel trick. Tammy smiled evilly, flashing her lavender eyes at the French girl. The girls who were jealous of Felicity laughed at her. Felicity pouted before helping herself up and sitting at her desk, staring at it and didn't even bother looking up.

Akito wanted to punish Tammy and the girls for putting Felicity down like that, but he didn't want to get in trouble, so he did his best to hold in his rage, but it wasn't easy. The only girls who weren't laughing at Felicity's misfortune were Megan, Estelle, and her friend.

Felicity sighed as she mumbled to herself. "I told Maman and Papa I did not want this..."

"Okay, students, that's enough, now let's focus on today's lesson." The teacher said.

"Yes, Mr. Demersy." the students replied.

"Now then, let's begin." the teacher turned to start the lesson.

Felicity glanced over to the others. Tammy smirked darkly right at her, narrowing her eyes harshly to her.

"Leave her alone, Tammy." Megan whispered.

"No." Tammy stuck her tongue out.

"Yes." Megan glared.

"NO!" Tammy hissed.

"YES!" Megan roared.

"Miss Clark, Miss Sparks, please!" the teacher scolded.

"Sorry, Mr. Demersy." Megan and Tammy frowned.

The teacher nodded firmly before continuing on with the lesson. School was slowly, very slowly, getting better for Felicity. She had her cousins and Estelle introduced her to her shy friend. The girls stood together as they were talking, but the shy girl seemed to be very distracted.


"Is she okay?" Felicity asked.

Estelle and Megan sighed. "Tony Rydinger."

"Whom?" Felicity asked.

"The boy right over there." Estelle whispered to her while pointing to who they meant.

Felicity looked over and saw a light brown-haired boy in a black sweater, blue jeans, and black shoes. "Oh, him."

"Violet's got a huge crush on him, but she never talks to him..." Megan also whispered.

"Oh..." Felicity replied.

"I hope your family is still able to come to dinner." Violet whispered to Estelle.

"Of course." Estelle whispered back before seeing Tammy and decided to use her Brain Blast secretly to hit a tray so then the school popular girl/bully would trip.

Tammy shrieked once she was hit by the impact. Felicity put her hand to her mouth and quietly giggled at the blonde girl's misfortune. Violet was surprised at what she saw her friend had powers too, so maybe so did her family like her own family did.

"Whoever did that is so getting sued!" Tammy sneered.

Estelle scoffed and rolled her eyes, then smiled back to Felicity. "Feel better?"

"I guess so..." Felicity smiled back. "Thank you, Estelle."

"No problem." Estelle smiled.

"So, you guys know each other?" Violet asked.

"We're cousins." Estelle explained.

"Oui..." Felicity nodded in agreement. "My parents thought maybe I could try school."

"Sorry it started out badly." Violet said.

"Maman says first days are usually tough..." Felicity sighed. "No one else seems to really like me though."

"They're just jealous." Megan said.

"Could be worse..." Violet muttered out. "People could treat you like you're invisible."

"Do most people treat you like that?" Estelle asked.

"That's how it feels..." Violet sighed. "I just wish I could be normal."

"Normal?" Felicity asked. "What do you mean?"

"Just... Normal..." Violet said. "I wish I could fit in..."

Felicity sighed. "I do not understand what the big deal is about trying to be normal..."

Violet sighed before showing her what she meant by turning invisible where only her clothes showed. Felicity's eyes widened.

Violet then reappeared. "See what I mean?"

Megan looked over as a certain boy was walking over. "Oh, uh, Violet, here he comes, here's your chance!"

Violet looked over too and gasped once she saw Tony Rydinger was coming right their way.

"You can do it." Estelle smiled at Violet.

Violet sighed shakily as she held her books close, nervously and bashfully. Tony was walking by, nodding to the students who talked with him.

Without knowing, Violet went invisible. "Hi, Tony, you play football?"

Tony walked by, then thought he heard a voice, he then turned one way, but shook his head once he saw no one there and continued to walk off.

Violet reappeared herself, then sat down behind the small wall she was standing in front of. "He looked at me..." she whispered bashfully.

"In a way, yes." Estelle smiled.

"Seeing is believing..." Megan shrugged with a small smile.

Violet smiled back to them and watched Tony as he walked off.

"So then, I'll see you tonight, right?" Estelle smiled at Violet.

"6:00, don't be late." Violet reminded once she returned focus.

"Got it." Estelle nodded.

Suddenly, a car pulled up next to the school and the horn honked from inside.

"COME ON, VIOLET!" a young male voice yelled out.

"Ooh, gotta go, see you tonight, Estelle!" Violet said as she then ran off to the car.


"Hey, Sis." Akito smiled after sliding down the rail.

"Hey, Bro." Estelle smiled back to him.

"So, ready to get home so we can be ready for tonight's dinner with Violet's family?" Akito asked her as Vincent came out of the school.

"Yeah!" Estelle beamed. "Let's do it!"

"Race ya guys home." Akito challenged.

"What's the point?" Vincent scoffed. "You'll just win."

"Good point." Akito smirked.

Estelle and Vincent rolled their eyes and shook their heads at their brother.

"So, uh, you guys wanna have a race of who'll eat my dust first?" Akito smirked.

Estelle and Vincent growled, chasing him as he ran off.

"Totally worth it!" Akito laughed.
