Gabriel was shaking from nerves as he was placed in front of the class by the teacher. His black ears were flat against his head and his tail wrapped around his leg, showing his fright. He tried not to look at any of the classmates now all staring at him with curiosity.
Gabriel was new to Maple Valley High School, having just moved here from Britain with his family. His father was from here originally, and after his mother passed away from illness, he decided to move the family back to here.
The teacher pet his shoulder kindly, trying to calm him. She smiled nicely at the class. "Now class, this is Gabriel Oatfield. He's come all the way from England. I want you all to be very kind to him," she explained to the teenagers. Gabriel glanced nervously up at her, smiling weakly. She instructed him to sit in the empty spot next to a friendly looking boy. He sat quietly, grateful that she didn't make him talk in front of the class. His father had warned the school ahead of time that he wasn't a very good speaker.

Sai entered the school late as usual. He didn't care much for being on time or meeting other's standards. They were lucky he even showed up at all. Taking a breath, he moved to his classroom door, and opened it. He ignored the looks from the other students and the grumble from the teacher about how he was late. "I'm here now" he says, and slips into his seat. He sighs a bit annoyed, and tosses his bag onto the table. They were lucky he bothered to show up at all with this kind of class. He could barley stand most of the people who were in here, and his eyes moved over them. He noticed rather quickly the new student. His ears moved back slightly and his tail twitched the slightest in agitation. So, they had a new little mouse to play with did they? He sighed a bit, and leaned back in his chair not taking his eyes off of the other student. He wondered where he was from or what exactly he was doing there. From the look of him, he was most likely a momma or daddy's boy, and that made Sai's skin crawl. He couldn't stand his own parents, always wanting him to be more like his siblings or something he wasn't. If he could, he would have rather left and been out on his own. Instead, he was wasting his time here with these people and this school. He sighed, and managed to get out his notebook, and at least pay attention a bit as the teacher went on, seeing no point in lecturing him again since it would do nothing. He couldn't afford to fail, for he did not want to have to deal with his parents and siblings if he did. He focused on his work, ignoring the other cat for now, he would deal with him later.

Gabriel shuddered slightly, feeling like the late boy was staring at him. He nervously peeked at him, noting the annoyed-looking eyes watching him. He exhaled heavily, quickly looking away. He didn't want any trouble on his first day at a new school. He pulled out his book and listened to the teacher, his left ear twitching occasionally. He couldn't shake the feeling that he was being plotted against. He shook himself, getting rid of the feeling. He was over-exaggerating for sure. He had the habit of being a little paranoid.
The bell rung, signalling recess. Relieved that he could leave the class, Gabriel placed his books back into his small bag and stood. He waited patiently for the other students to leave the room.

Sai stayed in his seat, and placed his boots up on the top of it. He raised an eyebrow as he glanced up at the new guy once more. Taking a breath, he leaned back in his seat, and folded his hands behind his head. He wondered what was up with the new kid, he seemed quiet. Not that that was a bad thing to Sai, people who talked to much were annoying on multiple levels. He rolled his eyes a bit as some people walked out in bunches, and yet again a few tried to get him to go out with them. When would these guys get the hint, he wasn't interested in them in the slightest. He figured after the hundreth let down they would get it, but apparently not. His eyes slid back over the new guy, and he tilted his head in intrest of him once more. "Hey you" he says "come here." He was not shy, more bold then anything, and blunt as well. It often got him into trouble, his mouth moved faster then his thoughts at time. He didn't care, he was how he was, and he didn't plan on changing just to make others happy.

Gabriel jumped slightly, turning around to look at the boy sitting casually behind him. Blushing brightly, he glanced about, hoping he wasn't talking to him. He always failed at introductions, and didn't think he could to talk to such a cool looking guy. He pointed to himself and gave the other a questioning glance. There were others still around, maybe he was speaking to them.

He raised an eyebrow, looking the male over. "Don't make me repeat myself" he sighed. Sitting up a bit now, he crossed his arms over his slender chest. His ears perked up, and his tail swayed at a slow pace lazily behind him. He lowered his brow, but tilted his head now. What was with this guy? Was he off or something? Sai was curious, and he was determined to find out one way or another, and he always got what he wanted. He chuckles a bit, that made him sound conceeded, but he could be a nice kitty...when he wanted to be. Right now he was feeling more feisty then anything, and he was in the mood for a bit of fun. Question was, could this guy deliver?

Blushing again, Gabriel nervously moved towards the boy who had spoken. His tail was wrapped around his leg and his ears were flat against his head once more. He looked at the floor, trying to hide how afraid he was. He heard the teen laugh, and he thought that he was laughing at him. His tail drooped with sadness and he wish he had the guts to run or to fight back.
He had always been teased and picked on, all though his school life. He was very timid and couldn't speak very well, so people always saw that as a sign of weakness.
"Wh-What d-do you w-want?" he stammered in his usual high pitched voice. He gulped, hating how girly he sounded.
