Aunis first class was honors law and government. Her parents expected her to get into law school and become a lawyer. She actually had a few classes with people from the hockey team. She wasn’t super popular but she wasn’t not popular and she snapped a lot of people from school. A good variety of guys and girls but a lot more of the guys have known her from talking with Austin and being friends with Kelsey. She doesn’t talk with them regularly though. She had class with Cole Hastings he was a senior on the hockey team he was in her elementary school class. He’s always been nice but a little cocky. He is what she would typically go for…tall,blonde, blue eyes, athletic. But she has noticed he’s gotten more and more douchey. She moved onto pottery and this was one of her favorites they started working with the clay and getting used to working with textures and shapes. Kelsey was in this class with her and Paige too. So was Mason Ludwig he’s the only guy in school Auni has been decently close too. They don’t really hang out that much but they were really close in middle school and he’s always been a good friend to her. He helped her get back up after her breakups and has given her good advice but she’s always only seen him as a friend and they have had a little bit of a falling out. “Tyler said he saw you take Theo to practice last night…did you watch?” She asked curiously. Auni shook her head as she sculpted a scalloped pattern into the clay. “No, I didn’t want it to be weird so I went to Luckys,” she said to her “He is kinda cute…it’s kinda refreshing that he isn’t from here and like everyone else here,” Paige had stated. She had a boyfriend he was a baseball player and they have been together for 2 years. “Wait you don’t like him do you? Because I was kind of hoping he could be my date to homecoming or prom,” Kelsey had said completely distracted from what she is supposed to be doing. “No,” Auni blurted out and then paused… “I don’t…do you really think that’s a good idea? He might not even want to go with you, I hate to break it to you Kels but I think just about all the guys in this school would go with you. Why don’t you ask Tyler or Grayson?” She asked. “Grayson and me are broken up we have been since right before summer. Tyler is okay but he doesn’t have an accent,” she pouted. The rest of her classes actually went fairly quick and it was time for lunch. She didn’t pack her lunch today she was in a bit of a rush and so she got in line until she felt a semi familiar presence behind her but she chose to ignore it for now. She was still a bit embarrassed and didn’t really want to be the one to make conversation. |

Auni was a bit surprised when she turned around to look at Cole. Homecoming was a month away but people started asking really early. Honestly Auni wasn’t even really sure if she was going to go. Last year she went and it was fun but she just hung out with Paige mostly and they only danced a little bit. She wasn’t sure how to respond as she wasn’t expecting this. She has known Cole but they haven’t talked very recently. He was probably just trying to secure a date early so he didn’t look lame. “Um, I’m not sure. I don’t know if I’m even going…can I think about it?” She had said. She wasn’t exactly flattered as he could’ve asked anyone but why her? It wasn’t a yes it wasn’t a no. It was her senior year and going could be fun…but did she really want to go with him? She grabbed her lunch and went to walk to her table. “I’ll let you know by like next week,” she had said to him as it was only fair to give him a yes or no answer. She didn’t fully trust him some of his friends were also rowdy and he knew Austin they were kind of close. She briefly glanced at Theo as she sat down at her table. |

Auni was pretty shocked and definitely wasn't expecting that. She already knew as soon as she sat down everyone would be asking. "Sooooo, what did Cole want?" Layla asked her and Kelsey sat next to her listening intently. "He asked me to homecoming," she said not very enthusiastically. "What did you say?" Paige asked her. "I said I didn't know I would think about it and let him know by next week," she told them. "Why?" Kelsey asked. "Well, first off I don't even know if I am going this year, and second it wasn't very special or anything he didn't do anything to make it memorable he just wants someone to go with so he doesn't look lonely. After the humiliation Austin put me through how do I know he wasn't behind this he already made a bet with someone this is probably another one," She explained. They sat there and nodded in silence as they agreed and it was a bit of a sore subject sometimes. In the past Auni hasn't always stuck up for herself because she doesn't like getting attached and watching them leave that's probably why she hasn't even though about Theo in that way because friends or not... or even more than friends he would still leave. She uses her grouchiness to help push him away because then there's no hope for anything more but sometimes it's really hard to keep that up. She just has to keep telling herself not everyone is terrible and will make her a miserable person. Auni kept an eye on the hockey table as she contemplated her decision. Sure enough the bell rang and it was time to go to class but then after it she had to see Theo at study hall. |

She picked her head up when he came in “hey,” she said quietly. She paused what she was writing down in her notebook to practice for her debate club as they will have a mock trial at the end of the year. “Yeeaaahh, I didn’t really think he would talk to me I don’t really know him super well. We went to elementary school together and I’ve snapped him a few times but that’s it. He actually asked me to homecoming but I’m not even sure if I’m going. Moms probably going to make me though so you can get the “full experience” I went last year. It was fun but I don’t want to go with him just to go with someone he probably would end up ditching me half way through anyways. I told him I’d think about it,” she explained to him. She could see he was a bit tense but didn’t want to ask questions. “It’s totally up to you if you want to go I kinda figured you would since your outgoing and I’ve noticed in Europe it’s pretty common for people to party past 3am,” she joked. “ Do they have something similar back in France? Basically there’s a football game the night before and then the next night there’s a big dance it’s not formal it can get pretty crazy. You dress up tho and a lot of people make cute signs to ask people to go with them. The theme this year is Hollywood glam.” She told him as she realized she got completely distracted from what she was doing which usually never happens. "If you plan on taking anyone usually people ask anywhere from now up until the night of the game, so if you want to ask someone you can my parents would care in fact I think they'd be infauated with your life because mines the same and boring," she joked as it's true her mom always asks her about guys and she never really has anything to say because all the ones here suck. |

“I knew that, but I wasn’t sure if there was a sport over there that you worshiped similar to how we do with American football,” she has said to him. “Do you have a prom over there? Or like fun school activities?” She asked curiously |
