Lucy walked into the computer lab. It was completely deserted, she held her laptop bag against her chest as she scanned the rooms. There wasn't a soul in there. Great. Lucy looked around for a bit, examining old computers before deciding to sit down at an empty desk, a rather large one and placing her laptop down.
She sipped on her frappicuinno that she'd brought from the cafeteria and connected to the school's verrry high speed internet. It was amazing. She bit down on her lip and started to scan random web pages- the computer lab was dark. It was very large too, so the smallest sound made her jump, that's when she heard the door creak. Someone was in there. Lucy sat completely still, acting like she was occupied on her laptop; she didn't look up to see who it was incase it was a teacher or even worse- the principal.

Anastasia clutched tightly at her laptop as she searched aimlessly throught the halls to find someplace to hook up. Her computer that is. She hadn't met many people here yet and was too shy to ask anyone for directions. It was just luck she had spotted a girl with her own laptop going into a room way down the hall. A.C. made a point to follow her.
Pushing open the door, it creaked at her touch. The girl was seated at a table and was sitting up so straight you would think you could crack her in half with the touch of a finger. Ana bit her lip hoping she hadn't scared the girl. She slipped into the room shutting the door behind her. It was dark and quiet in the room and she took a step towards the table before hesistating.

Lucy looked around, now, puzzled. She saw a familiar face in the little light that was entering through the window. She tilted her head and recognized the Junior to be Anastasia Conner. Or, AC. She smiled and elevated her head, looking at her, glad that it wasn't a teacher, professor, or the principal.
"Hey AC," Lucy said, smiling and bringing her drink to her lips.

Anastasia felt her entire body relax at the sound of the familar voice using a certain nickname. "Oh hey Luce. I could of sworn you were someone else." The Junior made her way to the table fully now and set her laptop next to Lucy's. Pulling up a chair she stradled it and smiled at her Sophmore friend. "How've you been lately shorty?" A grin tugged at her lips, knowing full well the two girls were nearly the same height.[/font]

Lucy giggled. "Well, talley, I suppose I have been doing quite well. I have met a lot of people and one specific special person," she said, "How about you?'
Lucy clicked around on her laptop a bit and opened her music player. She put a little bit of Fall Out Boy on and turned the volume down to low.

Anastasia's lips cracked into a smile. "Talley? Now that's creative." Her eyebrows raised questionably at the mention of a 'special person'. "Now who would this special person be? Anyone I know? Not that I know many people here anyways." Ana glanced at her own laptop and opened it up, logging on. She wanted to send an email to her brother, let him know things were going alright. Her head bobbed along to the quiet music.[/font]

Lucy giggled and searched random websites. She had many questions in her head lately and found herself on Google more than ever before, looking them up so she could be oh so smart. She smiled and turned to face Ana. Lucy bit down on her lip.
"Well, for me to tell you if you know him or not, you'll have to tell me who you have met, first," she said, nodding, "So, who have you met, AC?" she asked, taking a sip of her frappicuinno.

Ana tried to keep from rolling her eyes but preceded to answering her friend's question. "Well let's see.... You, Ryan, Kazz, and Zachary. Yupp that's it. Sad I know. I actually tripped over Kazz when I met him. But anyways, tell me who it is?" She was talking to Lucy but had her eyes trained on the computer screen. Her fingers flew across the keyboard typing up a long message to her brother. She had an e-mail in her inbox, but she could check that afterwards. [/font][/center]

"Hmm.." Lucy said, "Well, I don't suppose you have met him, but I'm sure that you have seen him around school. You could barely miss him. He's gorgeous and his name is Aiden Rothe," she said, smiling and nodding all the same.
Lucy turned back to face her computer screen where she logged into her email and checked her inbox. Letter's from the social worker discussing her younger brothers and sisters. Oh.. and some important news. What the f---. Lucy had an older brother? She raised her eyebrows once the message said that he would be attending Radcore Academy as well. A feeling of excitement and nervousness flooded her body. Whoa- a brother. That was actually older than herself.

Ana shrugged her shoulders lightly. "Nope, doesn't ring a bell. Sorry hun. You'll have to show this mystery boy to me." She finished up her letter and hit send. Alright off to the inbox. She glanced over at her silent friend and gave her a nudge. "What's up Luce?" Her friend's face was hard to read, a mix of emotions. [/font][/center]

Lucy jumped once she was nudged. She was in a complete daze and completley forgot about everything that had happened and the entire subject that they were talking about. Her mouth dropped down and she stared at the screen with glazed, confused eyes. She bit down on her lip and turned to face AC. Lucy shook her head, bringing a hand up to her mouth and closing her eyes. She bowed her head and stared at her feet, feeling her face get hot, and eyes get teary. Lucy finally looked back up at Anastasia and raised her eyebrows.
"I have an older brother, and he's coming here," Lucy said in a soft, yet excited voice.

Ana was starting to feel her heart beat increasing. This was getting nerve wracking. What on earth was up with her friend? She rubbed her hands together anxiously, swallowing. Lucy looked like she was on the verge of tears. Ana wasn't very good with drama and excitement like this, oh no, not at all.
But when she heard the news, a loud sigh escaped her lips. "That's great Luce. You must be so excited. I know I would be if Alexis was coming here." She smiled happily at Lucy and patted her friend on the leg. "You nearly gave me a heartache back there." [/font][/center]

"Alexis?" she asked, raising her eyebrows confusedly, "Who is Alexis?" she asked. Lucy exited from her inbox. She didn't want to hear from the social worker today, not tomorrow, not the next day neither. Lucy was scared to meet her brother. What would he be like? Would they get along? What would he think of her? She chewed on her bottom lip nervously as all of these thoughts rushed through her head, yet she realized she hadn't been answered by Ana, "Is he your brother?" she asked, raising an eyebrow.

Ana wanted to smack herself in the head. She mustn't of told Lucy about Alexis. "Yeah he's my brother. I would die from happiness if he went here." She smiled excitedly at her friend before opening her new letter. It was from her parents. Her eyes quickly read through and she leaned back in her chair. "Hmm.." [/font][/center]

Lucy nodded, smiling, "Hmm.. maybe someday he and I could meet, if he's as awesome as you are," she said, giggling lightly, "Uhm.. what's that, Ana?" she asked, peeking slightly over AC's paper that was gently nestled in her fingers.
Lucy bit down on her lip as thoughts about her brother soared through her mind. What would he be like? What would he look like? Would he be interested in the same things at her? Or would he be a preppy sarcastic jock? She bit down on her lower lip, all of this thinking was much too complicated.
