Phoebe made a noise of frustration, pulling at her faulty lock. She'd put in the correct combination at least nine times, but the stupid thing insisted on getting stuck every time she tried to open it.

“Faulty lock?” Elide said as she walked up beside Phoebe. She’d already returned her things from her own locker, double and triple checking it was locked before she’d gone off to find her new friend.

Phoebe glanced up. "Unfortunately." She made a face, bursting out into laughter a second later. "I'm going to Metro for lunch, want to come?"

Elide frowned a little, “Is that like a cafe or something?” She asked, fiddling with the sleeves of her sweater.

Phoebe shook her head, grinning a little. "No, it's like a plaza. With coffee shops and places to eat. I'm going there with another of my friends today, want to come with?"

Elide thought for a moment before nodding, “Sure. I have nothing else to do anyway and it’ll be fun.” She smiled a little up at her.

"Awesome. I can pay for you, I've got money on me." Phoebe finally managed to get her locker open, pulling out a purse and her phone. She peered at the screen for a moment.

Where are u?, Josh had typed.

On my way, with a friend. Have you met Elide?, she replied.

The new girl? Not yet

You're about to

"Hey Elide, what's your number?"

“M-My number? Oh here.” Elide quickly pulled out her phone and brought up her number and showed it to Phoebe.

Phoebe entered it in her phone, sending Elide a 'Hiya'. "That's me.", she said, pointing to the notification that had just popped up on her screen. "Let's go!"

“I have no clue where we’re going so lead the way.” Elide’s smile grew a little as she quickly created a new contact in her phone before putting it away.

"Alright." They left the school, crossing the field. "It's about a ten minute's commute.", Phoebe informed her, catching sight of Josh at the end of the field. "Josh!!", she called, waving.

“I-Is that your boyfriend?” Elide asked, a twang of jealousy hit her in the chest and she didn’t know why.

"Who, Josh?" Phoebe laughed. "Nah, he's gay af." Josh jogged up to them, grinning. He was relatively tall, slightly chubby, with permanently red cheeks and messy brown hair that was shorter at the sides. Despite the heat, he wore a pastel pink hoodie. "Hey, Phoebe. And you must be Elide?"

Elide nodded and smiled up at him, “That’s me. And you’re Josh, then?”

Josh nodded, his smile friendly. “That’s me. Where’d you pick her up?”, he asked, directing the question jokingly to Elide, referring to Phoebe. Phoebe rolled her eyes. “Very funny.”

Elide smiled, “I met her this morning. I was taking some photos before school and took her photo, that’s all.” She shrugged a shoulder and nudged Phoebe with her elbow gently.

Phoebe nudged her back, smiling. “You guys ready?” Josh nodded. “Let’s go.”

Elide nodded, “You guys are gonna have to lead.” She said, rubbing st her arm a little awkwardly.

Phoebe grabbed hold of Elide’s arm as they walked to the bus stop. “Careful, when the bus comes a bunch of people are going to want to get on so you’re going to have to jump on as soon as you can or you won’t make it before the doors close.” They pushed their way to the front of the crown as the bus pulled in.

As soon as the doors opened, Elide jumped on like Phoebe said and grabbed a set of seats for all three of them before anyone else could grab them.

"Awesome!" Josh grinned. "We haven't gotten actual seats in forever, thanks!"

“No problem. I’ve seen busses worse then this in England.” Elide shrugged a shoulder with a small smile.
