<I was just chilling with music drawing on a chalkboard when this song came on and I immediately got inspiration for a chapter, so I decided to end my break early.
Applaud for me simps!
Also yes, this is technically a (female) Highschool AU.
It might be poorly done and the used characters might be slightly OOC, but I tried to make it at least a little humorous so hang in there with us why don'tcha?
SIDENOTE: if you are female, this chapter will make you gayer confirmed.
EXTRA SIDENOTE: Fem Eclipse is my Queen 👑💍>
You get out of the car and say goodbye to your mother, closing the door. You turn and gaze up to the cheeky bear mascot of the Highschool, Freddy Fazbear.
You sigh and trudge up the steps, in no hurry whatsoever to deal with the people you've known for most of your life.
You pull out your phone and start recording your first day 'Diary Log' that you did every year, at the end of every week.
You planned to make an entire audio book on it one day.
'The Life of the Suffering' or something else lame like that.
You cleared your throat and pressed the red button on the bottom of the screen, tucking it into your pocket.
"September 1st, 1989
Dear Diary:
I believe I'm a good person. You know, I think that there's good in everyone, but-here we are! First day of senior year!"
You dramatically gesture around with your arms to emphasize your words despite the recording not having a visual.
"And uh... I look around at these kids that I've known all my life and I ask myself-what happened?"
You flinch at the background bursting with negative comments and insults.
"Freak! Slut! Burnout! Bug-eyes! Poser! Lard-ass!"
You begin to reminisce how nice everything in the past was, saying your thoughts aloud for the recording to pick up.
"We were so tiny, happy and shiny
Playing tag and getting chased."
The rude background chatter continued, helping you know what areas to stay away from.
"Freak! Slut! Loser! Shortbus!"
You continue your hopeful rant of how gleeful things used to be.
"Singing and clapping, laughing and napping, baking cookies, eating paste."
You speedwalk past the verbal fight going on, to the left of the hall.
"Bull-dyke! Stuck-up! Hunchback!"
You just barely dodge some guy who was waving his arms around, punching the air whenever a particularly cruel insult was said.
"Then we got bigger, that was the trigger. Like the Huns invading Rome"
You glare at the air punching guy and bump into someone.
"Ugh!"
You stumble back while the other guy walks away, spitting curses at you. You wince at the rude names and call out an apology to him.
"Oh, Sorry!"
You sigh and clench your fists anxiously.
"Welcome to my school, this ain't no high school:
This is the Thunderdome."
You hear some girls snicker at your wording and whisper about you to each other. You roll your eyes at them.
"Hold your breath and count the days, we're graduating soon."
A group starts chanting insults at an irritated looking pair of students.
"White trash!"
You complain to the recording.
"College will be paradise, if I'm not dead by June!"
Once you're far enough away from the particularly obnoxious group of people you let down your hands and look to the side.
"But I know, I know, life can be beautiful
I pray, I pray for a better way
A rather attractive girl walked into you as they had their chin up, showing everyone their confidence.
She fell down and glared at you in shock and bewilderment. Her ID that hung from her belt read 'Roxanne Wolf'.
"Just not today." You mumbled to yourself.
"Hey, are you okay?" You reached out a hand for her to take.
"Get away, nerd!" She shoved your hand away and got up herself, stomping away.
You blink and watch her storm off. "Oh, okay."
The group of the louder students had started moving and you could hear them around a corner.
"Freak! Slut! Cripple! Homo! Homo! Homo!"
You quickly gather your thoughts and continue walking down the hall searching for a more peaceful place.
"Things will get better soon as my letter comes from Afton, Henry, or Micheal.
Wake from this coma, take my diploma, then I can blow this town."
You sigh frustratedly upon being squished between a passing group of jocks that ignored your existence.
"Dream of ivy-covered walls and smoky French cafés." You grumble, glaring at the jocks.
One of them walks into you almost purposely, making you stumble to the side, their ID claimed their name to be 'Montgomery Gator'.
He turns to you and shoves you against a locker. "Watch it!"
You grimace and hold your pained shoulder while glaring at him.
"Fight the urge to strike a match and set this dump ablaze!"
It appears that he heard you and he chuckles darkly. "Oops."
You forget to hold back on your temper and scowl at him.
"Montgomery Gator. Third year as linebacker and eighth year of smacking lunch trays and being a huge dick."
He gets up in your face and snarls at you.
"What did you say to me, skank?"
You realize your mistake and do a doubletake with your words.
"Aah, nothing!"
You rush out from under his arms that were holding you against the lockers and dive into a crowd of people to escape his wrath.
"But I know, I know..."
The group of people mock you. "I know, I know..."
You slink out of the crowd and breath in, gaining hope that today might not be too bad.
"Life can be beautiful."
The people behind you chortle at your claim, copying you with a snotty tone of voice. "Beautiful"
You shift your gaze to the ground and continue moving through the halls.
"I pray, I pray."
More students mock you as you pass by. "I pray, I pray"
You lower your tone trying not to give them anything else to mock you about. "For a better way."
A few kids with a similar mindset to you say the same thing as you did and somberly look at you.
"For a better way"
You give them an uncertain smile and small wave as they stare at you passing by. "We were kind before."
A few choir students were practicing in a small group sitting by the water fountains making the atmosphere slightly calmer. "Ooh..."
You slow down and relax a little, lowering your tense shoulders and grin at the singing students. "We can be kind once more."
They ignore you and continues vocalizing. "Ooh..."
You awkwardly look away. "We can be beautiful..."
They roll their eyes and murmur amongst themselves as you hum a little to yourself. "Ooh... Beautiful..."
As you were staring at the ground humming you run into someone and fall over. You dropped your bag and books.
You quickly gather your things and hit your head on the person that bumped into you, who also got down to help you pick up your books. You groan in pain and rub your head. "Ugh!..."
"I'm so sorry Y/n! Here, I'll pick up your books while you get up!" they instantly apologized and put their hand on your head to try and make you feel better.
Your eyes widen and you look to the girl's face and chuckle nervously.
You relax and sigh, smiling awkwardly at the familiar face.
"Hey Sunny" you place your hand on hers that was still on your head, taking it off to hold it.
Her face turns a shade of pink and she retracts her hand, laughing anxiously. "Hey."
Her twin sister rolls her eyes at you two behind Sun and leans on a locker waiting for her sister to continue heading to their classes.
You brighten up and chuckle, picking up the rest of your things and get up with Sun. She hands you the books she picked up and rubs the back of her neck, looking to the side with a bit of pink dusted across her face.
You pull her into a hug and introduce her to the recording proudly.
"Sun, Student Principal. My best friend since diapers!"
She softens and smiles at you.
"We on for movie night?"
You grin and lock arms with her. "Yeah, you're on Jiffy Pop detail."
She scratches her cheek with a shy smile. "I rented 'The Princess Bride.'"
You raise a brow at her, holding the cheeky grin.
"Ho-ho-ho, again? Wait, don't you have it memorized by now?"
She shrugs. "What can I say? I'm a sucker for a happy ending."
She stares at you while you laugh until someone walks into her, pushing her shoulder. She turns to see who did it.
One of the biggest jocks in the school mocks her.
"Student Principal! Babysitter! Waa waa!"
Sun pouts angrily as Music Man laughs at her. "Hahaaa!"
You growl his name into the recording and make fun of him. "Music Man. Quarterback. He is the smartest guy on the football team. Which is kind of like being the tallest dwarf."
He didn't seem to have heard you and continues laughing at Sun who shrunk away from the bully.
"Ha ha! Alright!"
Your annoyance overcomes your fear and you stomp up to Music Man, yelling at him. "Hey! Pick that up! Right now!"
He muffles his chuckles with a hand and looms over you.
"I'm sorry, are you actually talking to me?"
You glare up to him and points at him accusingly.
"Yes, I am. I wanna know what gives you the right to pick on my friend. You're a high school has-been waiting to happen. A future gas station attendant."
He points back at your face and laughs.
"...You have a zit right there..."
You gulp and gather your remaining pride, backing up to stand next to Sun as the Jock starts laughing his ass off again.
You scowl and continue your recording.
"Dear diary:
Why..."
A passing student that was moping around mumbled to themself.
"Why do they hate me?"
A trembling girl in the corner hiding from bullies clutches her backpack straps and cries out to nobody in particular.
"Why don't I fight back?"
You swore you heard Music Man mumble something into his hand as soon as he stopped laughing.
"Why do I act like such a creep?"
You sigh knowingly and continue.
"Why..."
You hear Sun whisper to herself while staring at the back of your head.
At this you turn to look at her and she immediately looks to someone else in the crowd to try to throw you off. You raise a brow at her, shrugging it off.
Your eyes widen as you hear Monty say something around the corner.
"Why did I hit her?"
A group of people down the hall chime in.
"Why do I cry myself to sleep?"
Your gaze softens as you look around the room at all the sad teens.
"Why..."
The choir kids add their own little rant into the mix.
"Somebody hug me!
Somebody fix me!
Somebody save me!"
You decide to join in on the hopeful statements that some others were saying.
"Send me a sign, God!
Give me some hope, here!
Something to live for!"
Suddenly, a small handful of students were racing down the hall calling out three names.
"Ah! Eclipse, Lunar, and Bloodmoon!"
Your eyes widen as everybody gasps and grows quiet to look at the newcomers.
You decide to describe the trio into the recording.
"And then there's the sisters. They float above it all."
Everyone starts calmly chanting their names as they stare.
"I love Eclipse, Lunar, and Bloodmoon."
A few of the pissier students pipe in their own little chant, earning a hoard of glares from every direction.
"I hate Eclipse, Lunar, and Bloodmoon."
You gulp and try to move closer to the front to see these people while describing each girl.
"Bloodmoon, head cheerleader. Her appetite is enormous-She even tends to bite people, She's terrifying."
The chanting goes on.
"I want Eclipse, Lunar, and Bloodmoon."
You move onto the next girl's description.
"Lunar, runs the yearbook. She's the most adorable person you'll ever meet, but she gets bored easily."
The crowd hums as you nudge your way to the front, Sun and Moon slowly following you. Moon only coming to look out for Sun while Sun wants to stay by your side.
"I need Eclipse, Lunar, and Bloodmoon."
You take in a breath of awe as you lay your gaze upon the gorgeous girls a few yards away from you, strutting down the hallway.
"And Eclipse, the Almighty
She is a mythic bitch."
You stare at Eclipse as she walks by, your eyes shimmering.
She's so.. Interesting.
"They're solid Teflon-never bothered, never harassed
I would give anything to be like that."
She completely ignores your comments and turns the corner.
Before the trio leaves your view they glance to you. The students relaxed and started rambling to each other about how they feel about the girls.
"Mm..."
A person behind you admits their crush on the girls.
"I'd like to be their partner."
A few other simps also hum in agreement.
<points at you through 4th wall>
"That would be beautiful...
Mm..."
A girl wistfully stared at her hands.
"If I sat at their table, guys would notice me!"
A few other girls nodded.
Sun sighed and pinched the bridge of her nose making you smile at her.
"I'd like them to be nicer."
A few students acknowledged Sun's statement.
"That would be beautiful...
Ooh..."
One of the older seniors piped in with a rather.. grusome want, causing a bunch of guys to jump him and beat him up a few seconds after.
"I'd like to kidnap a Sister and photograph her naked in an abandoned warehouse and leave her tied up for the rats."
You immediately leave the hallway with Sun and Moon following after.
You hear some vomiting and muffled talking coming from the women's bathroom.
You curiously eye the door and hold up a finger to halt Sun so you can go inside alone. She looks to the door and tries to follow you in.
Moon gives you a peace sign and grabs her sister's shoulder, dragging her to her class. Sun pouts but follows Moon anyways.
As you step inside you hear the incredibly smooth voice of Eclipse causing you to freeze and sweatdrop awkwardly. What have you gotten yourself into..?
"Grow up, Lunar. Bulimia is so '87."
You silently dive into one of the stalls while they aren't looking and lean against the door in suspense.
You quietly take a breath, ignoring the stink of the public bathroom.
"Maybe you should see a doctor, Lunar." Bloodmoon suggests to the sick girl.
Lunar's innocent voice rings through the bathroom making your heart beat faster.
"Yeah, Bloodmoon. Maybe I should."
The door opens and you hear the voice of one of the stricter councilors; Ms. Vanessa.
"Ah, Eclipse and Bloodmoon."
Your worry grows as you hear Lunar vomit again. The poor girl..you suddenly realize what was going to happen and get out the stack of unused hallpasses from your bag and a pen.
You write down all 4 of your and the girls' names in a copy of the yearbook committee teacher's handwriting.
"...and Lunar. Perhaps you didn't hear the bell over all the vomiting. You're late for class."
You anxiously finish writing all the names, you can feel your hand shaking. This could change the way everyone looks at you. This could change your life.
You brace yourself for the key words to leave Ms.Vanessa's mouth with pass in hand.
Eclipse's calm voice fills the air to try and get the councilor off their back.
"Lunar wasn't feeling well. We're helping her."
Ms. Vanessa gives her a dry laugh.
"Not without a hall pass, you're not. Week's detention."
You step out of the stall, causing everyone to look at you, making you feel dizzy with anxiety.
"Um, actually, Ms. Vanessa, all four of us are out on a hall pass. Yearbook committee.."
The Bloodmoon and Lunar look at you with confusion but gratefulness while Eclipse stares at you with amusement. Her arms crossed and eyebrows raised, watching your every move with a small smirk making you sweatdrop.
Ms. Vanessa studies the hallpass and pulls her glasses down a little to glance to you then hands the pass back to you.
"...I see you're all listed. Hurry up and get where you're going."
Once Ms. Vanessa leaves the bathroom the girls walk up to you. Eclipse snatches the pass from your trembling hand.
She glances it over a few times then looks back up to you.
"This is an excellent forgery. Who are you?"
You stand up straight and nervously glance to the side, seeming flustered slightly.
"Uh... Y/n L/n. I crave a boon."
Eclipse gives you a bored look.
"What boon?"
You flinch slightly at her reaction and lean back slightly, glancing at the door nervously.
"Um.. Let me sit at your table, at lunch. Just once! No talking necessary. If people think that you guys tolerate me, then they'll leave me alone..."
You breath in and gain enough courage to continue talking to the breath taking trio.
"Before you answer, I also do report cards, permission slips, and absence notes."
Lunar pipes in with a question.
"How about prescriptions?"
Eclipse glares at Lunar, and swats her shoulder.
"Shut up, Lunar."
Lunar flinches slightly and takes a small step backwards.
"Sorry, Eclipse."
Looking back over to you, Eclipse begins to walk in a circle around you.
You grab your upper arms awkwardly in an attempt to calm yourself down.
She stops in front of you and steps closer to you.
She raises a gentle hand to lift your chin slightly, so she can look at you better, you feel heat rushing to your face at the contact.
"For a greasy little nobody, you do have good bone structure."
Eclipse smirks slightly at your reddening cheeks but catches herself and takes a few steps back.
She covers her mouth with a hand and looks to the side.
Then bloodmoon steps up to take a look at you.
She leans in really close to your face, almost enough to touch noses and gazes at you, her view lingering on your eyes and mouth.
She sets a hand on your cheek to gently turn your face to the side, making you feel emotionally dizzy.
"And a symmetrical face. If I took a meat cleaver down the center of your skull, I'd have matching halves. That's very important."
Bloodmoon then grins mischievously and rubs your bottom lip with her thumb. You shiver slightly as she moves away. Lunar pouts at Bloodmoon for doing that to you and turns her head to look at your form.
She smiles at you questioningly.
She rests her hands lightly on either side of your hips making your heart feel like it's about to beat out of your chest.
She teases you, leaning
