(AN Yes, I did modify the chapter from my story, The Glares I Get. Bite me.)

It was the end of summer, and I was finally going to start my very first day of school. It would be my first time ever going to school. Yep, you guessed it, I'm in kindergarten. Yippee. If you couldn't tell, that was sarcasm. Ever hear of it. I wasn't too excited about that dumb first day that we all have to suffer through. It's going to be absolute torture, I see it now.

My mom dropped me off in front of the school at around 7:00 am; I thought it was a little early, but ask me if a give a flying hog about it. I saw another girl that had to be my age. I didn't care that much. She looked too perky for my likings. It might be fun to toy with her though, you know, play with her a little bit. Oh the fun I—

"Take your book bag… please…" my mom said, pulling me out of my thoughts.

"No Mom! I don't want that! It's embarrassing!" I yelled at the top of my tiny lungs.

"Please, Jadey," I hate it when she calls me that. "You need a book bag to carry all of your stuff!"

That stupid pink book bag flew out of the car. I just sat and watched as it hit the ground. As soon as my mom happily waved goodbye, I slammed the door. Mom's car drove away really quickly. I was glad she was finally leaving. I can't stand either of my parents. I know for a fact that they can't stand me either.

I walked in the direction of the other girl. I was able to get a better look at her as I got closer. She had brown hair, like mine but a little bit darker. And minus the blue streaks. She looked so tiny, like tinier than the average 4-year-old. She was also so innocent looking with those big brown eyes of hers. Oh yeah, she'll be a fun person to mess with.

I shoved passed her and walked on ahead. I didn't exactly know where I was going, I was just going somewhere. Would it be appropriate to skip on the first day of school? Wait, since when do I care?

"Hi!" Ugh, she had this really annoying perky voice.

I turned around to look at that bubble-head. I was trying to be intimidating to her the best that I could. By now, I think I was definitely scaring her. She looked like she was about to pee her pants or something. That would be amusing to see, but unfortunately, she never did.

"I'm Caterina… Caterina Valentine."

I tried my best to hold back a laugh. That was the stupidest name I have ever heard of. What kind of self-respecting little girl goes by a name like that?

"Caterina? That's a funny name." I said, still trying to be intimidating "I'm Jade. Where did your family come up with a name like Caterina?"

Caterina told me about her grandmother. she was saying that her grandmother's name was Caterina and that her parents thought it was a pretty name. so she got stuck with that stupid name all because of her grandma. Poor little Caterina.

"But… I don't really like my name that much. I get picked on by the older boys in my neighborhood because of it." She told me.

For some reason, I felt the need to go and beat up those older boys for her. I looked at Caterina for a couple of minutes. I examined every little bit of her. From her brown frizzy hair to her pink Hello Kitty shoes.

"Why don't you change it? Maybe shorten it." I suggested

A million different emotions flickered across her face, most of them being some sort of confused look.

"What would I change it to?"

"Well, you would change it to Cat, silly!"

Ohmigod! Did I really just say silly! That was not like me. I wish I could take it back. Erase that stupid word from my vocabulary.

So we had the same class. I was actually pretty excited about it. I don't know why. It's like she had this aura about her that I just liked. I could tell that Cat was pretty excited about everything. I tried to look excited too, for her, but I think I failed miserably.

As the day went on, I discovered that Cat was a little bit hard to understand. But I figured out a way to keep up with her.

As the school day came to an end, I discovered that I had really liked Cat. I kind of hoped that we could be really good friends. Like I said, there was this thing about Cat. I also liked how she thought I was the bravest person in the world.

This stupid teacher was getting all worked up with her for no reason. All she did was ask a simple question and he got all wazzed.

"No! No! NO! Caterina—"

"It's Cat." I was surprised to find that I was the one correcting him.

"Either way, NO! There is no such thing as a unicorn! We are learning about horses not unicorns!"

Poor little Cat was on the verge of tears. I could have sworn I saw one spill over her eye lid.

"Stop yelling at her like that!" I snapped back at him.

"Sit down Ms. West."

People do NOT tell me what to do! I picked up that stupid book about horses and chucked it at that stupid balding teacher.

"You can shove this book up your a—"

A teeny tiny hand covered my mouth. I turned around to see a frantic little Cat.

I was sent to the principles office for the rest of the day…
