"Don't worry about preps or any greasers." Oscar said trying to calm Lupe. "In retrospect, I think protecting Mooi will keep the Greasers and preps busy long enough for us to go to the parking lot and bicycle out of here to a nice little place to grab a bite." Oscar also noticed her giggling and he knew this was one of the reasons he liked her. Sometimes he thought maybe he took this clique scene too seriously, but then again it was in the Bullworth spirit to be proud of your clique. He also primarily needed approval from his peers, father and Derby and for that he had to take the clique gig serious enough to one day take over control of it. Right now however with the clique world out of the picture, he did find the idea of leaving it all behind tempting. Walking with Lupe to the parking lot, he got on his Aquaberry cruiser and turned to Lupe.
"Want to race to Shea Lewis Cafe to work up an appetite? I'll ride extra slow to give you a chance to win." Oscar teased. Not that he cared much about racing right now, he did see the urgency in leaving campus grounds before the wrong peers saw them together.
"Sorry to make you pedal to Old Bullworth Vale," Oscar added. "But their coffee is absolutely exquisite."

"We were given orders to make sure no one bothers you, Miss Mooi. You are in grease turf."
"I am fully aware of where I am. Who sent you?, cause you watching over me bothers me, I'm not a child and can take care of my self."
"Oscar sent us, and we are not leaving until you are out of greaser turf."
"Well that may take a while, we're in 50 minute class."
The boy did not reply and only stood watching her.
Mooi sighed and continued with class, greasers looking at her, almost going up to her, then seeing her "Babysitters" and backing off.

Perfect, what a lovely sound, who ever tuned it really knew what they were doing, I'm impressed. Luke couldn't help but grin with the way it sounded and felt under his fingers, he definaletly missed his piano back in england, he was still annoyed that he had to leave it behind, and he'd made his mother promise to buy him a new one here in america.
He didn't care if he had to wait a month or longer he pratically begged his mother to buy him one, else he would have moved in with his grandparents and have not come to america with her, that was his threat to her and so she had told him he would have to wait two months and make do with the school's one until she could afford a new and good quality piano for the family home...well their small two bed apartment.

"Dear Lord, I love your accent. I wish I could comprehend it all but still don't mind hearing it." Oscar said. It was then that his thoughts went towards Mooi. Sure the posse he had sent to keep an eye on her were strong enough to hold the greasers off till he had left school, causing no problem for him and Lupe but he hoped Mooi would be fine while he was out having fun. If anything was to happen to her, not only he would feel guilty since he had taken a liking to her but he was sure Mr. Specima would rain a shitstorm on him. Gathering his thoughts for a final decision, at first he was hesitant to leave but a date with Lupe with a real possibility of it going uninterrupted was something he had hoped for over a year, he just couldn't give up on the opportunity. Hoping there would be no conflict in the auto shop, he started pedaling slowly, still indecisive, towards the cafe. Lupe whizzed by him and that made him come back to his senses. He finally had made his decision. He was not going to lose this race to Lupe.

Mooi didn't stop running until she was on the lawn of Harrington Mansion. She looked down and noticed claw marks on her arms, and her outfit was torn, and her gold necklace was gone. "Damn it." she whispered to herself "I really liked that necklace." Mooi saw her babysitters running towards her and she smiled awkwardly rubbing the back of her head.
"Good fight?" she asked a little embarrassed, the boys giving her odd looks.
"We thought you'd be dead for sure."
"I told you I'm not a baby. I can take care of my self."
Mooi rubbed the claw marks on her arms wincing a bit, some were bleeding, and she was pretty sure she would have some bruises on her stomach. She turned to the entrance and walked to the couches, plopping her self and laying down, her head on the arm rest. "I'm not moving until Oscar gets here. I need to give him a piece of my mind...giving me babysitters. Does he think I'm incapable of protecting my self? How dare he."
With her torn up clothes and battered skin, Mooi fell asleep right there on the couch, a little happy that, in her mind, Oscar cared about her safety.

Interesting, so she's a prep....well what did we expect hmm luke..Don't expect anything less from people like that, you sould know better boy. Luke wasn't going to hold it against anybody he guessed its just the way some people are and thats that, if they wanted to go around following others then so be it, if they wanted to go around bullying and beating up others then so be it, as long as he was never the one that was being involved, sure he wouldn't mind a few friends but he guessed he should really interact more, and so he made a vow, if somebody came upto him next he would deffinatley make a good effort to talk to them, even if it was greaser, or a prep, or a bully...what did it matter, as long as a fight wasn't picked he didn't care what 'clique' they were from.

So the two were biking towards Old Bullworth Vale. Even though it was Preppy territory, Lupe was pretty well acquainted with this area because she and her fellow greasers often hung out at the carnival on weekends. The weather was beautiful and the sun setting over the lighthouse cast a warm ray of sunlight. The smell of the ocean breeze was refreshing. Before she knew it Lupe had arrived at the cafe. She looked back at Oscar and made a smirk. "Hey, boys aren't supposed ta lose ta gawrls ya know? Or did ya go slow on purpose ta stare at my beautiful flowin hair hey"?
After taking a seat together and ordering drinks, Lupe leaned towards Oscar and asked: "So, Oscar, honey, tell me a little bout yuaself. Evah since I farst met ya ya wah such a mystery. Ya know? Whats somethin I don't know bout ya thats goin ta surprise me"?

"A mystery you say?" Oscar replied. "I thought people could read me like a book." Oscar did realize his attempt was half assed and not as subtle as he had hoped for.
"Something that can surprise you? Hmm... how about I have been fantasizing about this date for over a year? Makes me kind of creepy if you think about it." Added Oscar with a smile. The waitress brought them their coffees and as Oscar was about to say something, Mr Charmichael the shopkeeper from the Aquaberry store right next to the cafe interrupted him.
"Sorry to interrupt Mr. Harrington, the senior Mr. Harrington called earlier today assuming you were here at the store." Charmichael said in his refined accent, while looking at Lupe with disappointment. "He left a message and I saw you from the window now. Mr Harrington said he needed you to supervise the workers as they bring in the newest addition to Harrington House's greenhouse, a venus flytrap that he has purchased just for the school."
After giving the message Charmichael looked at is watch and added. "Oh dear, the workers should be reaching the House any minute now. You should leave soon Mr. Harrington if you don't want to anger the senior Harrington." With saying that he turned and went back to the shop. Oscar was now surprised with the amount of interruption he was facing in one day. Nothing seemed to work out and after waiting so long to spend some time with Lupe and that under the circumstances of today which ensured neither of their clique members could bother them, this was the last thing he needed. He gave Lupe an 'I'm sorry look' as he payed for their drinks and when he got on his bike, he said. "Lupe as much as I hate my dad for ruining our evening together, I just can't disappoint him. Maybe someday you'll understand why but today have to pedal away. I'm sorry for today. It was fun. We should do this again, soon."
Having said that, he rode away, leaving Lupe behind. Reaching the school soon after, he ran to the house only to find that Derby was there to supervise the workers. His father failing to contact him had summoned Derby to ensure this Venus flytrap would be installed in the greenhouse to rival Dr. Slawter's flytrap yet again. Swearing under his breath at his luck he passed by Derby without greeting him and went straight to the house just to find a Mooi that had passed out on one of the couches. She looked that she had been in a fight and was a bit roughed up but nothing looked serious. He woke her up and proceeded to escort a half sleep Mooi to her dorm.

After collecting herself , Mooi looked down at her ripped up clothing. "I need to change," she stated, but to whom, even she was unsure. Mooi and Oscar soon reached Mooi's dorm. Mooi walked in and commanded for Oscar to stay at the door as she shut it.
She soon realized all her clothes were in her bag in her car and she sighed. "Well...might as well look at the damage." she proceeded to slip off her clothes, with the exception of the bottom layer. Mooi tied her hair into a bun and stepped in front of the full-length mirror, admiring the bruises and cuts on her stomach. She then went to the bathroom to see if there was Neosporin. Mooi found the cream and trotted back to in front of the mirror, only to trip on the table and fall with a big THUD. She let out a scream and laid on her back, too aggravated with her self to get up. (OOC: Thought I'd put a lot of my clumsy in there....Sorry if it annoys any of ya! Also: if I misunderstood anything please tell me right away so I can fix my post! Thank you! )

Lupe got on her bike and rode around Old Bullworth Vale to clear her head. She then decided to visit the bike shop to ask if they had any of the rare bicycle parts that Danny wanted her to help him find for his customized bike.

After taking a quick look at the list he cracked up into laughter.
"Everyones been looking for these lately". He said. "I've heard that a couple of these might be shipping up into Blue Skies harbor but"...
"Yea"?
"We actually have Top Tube M108 but its not for sale. We're using that one for a special order scheduled to deliver tomorrow".
Lupe left the store and decided to head back to the school to see if she would bump into anyone she knew. Tomorrow she would return to this store to follow the delivery truck to see where it goes..

Leaving the dorm without even checking if Mooi was alright, he ran into the little kid who he had dispatched earlier to deliver his message to Bill. The kid had yet to find Bill and Oscar promised him extra 10 dollars if he would hurry and find Bill. He needed the jock business taken care off. Ed would be already furious at Oscar for ordering a small army to protect Mooi's first day blunder and now that he hadn't taken care of her task yet she was sure to lash at him.
He then proceeded to the main school building. Finding Lupe's locker with no one around, he wrote a note which said "Sorry about today, how can I make it up to you?" and broke in to leave the message. He couldn't believe he had stooped so low and had done something so cheesy but right about then he was out of ideas and desperate so when he saw the opportunity, he relied on the cliche.

"Evertyhing okay here?"
"YA....just...tripped." Mooi tried her hardest to cover her bruises on her stomach and the claw marks on her arms.
"Alright...Do you need help up?"
"No, no..Just going to lay here for a bit, the floors are comfortable." she said awkwardly.
Peabody gave her a weird look and left the room.
Mooi got up and wrapped her self in a blanket, knowing her clothes were too torn to attempt to put back on. She sighed, knowing what she would have to do....
Mooi stuck her head out the door, looked around and when the site was all clear she bolted out. She ran quickly to the exit of the dorm and looked out. She then walked casually, pretending the blanket was keeping her warm because she was cold. Soon she reached her car, unlocked it, since she had grabbed her keys before leaving, and opened the door. Mooi opened her suitcase, got into the car, and grabbed a pair of jeans and a black tank-top. She struggled to put them on while stuck between the seat, the car shaking.
As Mooi got out of the car, she got weird looks from people passing by. She rubbed the back of her head and smiled at them, then went on to put her black, what she liked to call, "thug boots" on. Mooi shut her suitcase, grabbed all her bags, locked the car, and strutted back to her dorm.

Lupe spotted her practicing her routine with a couple other cheerleaders on the side of the field.
"Krystal"!
Noticing Lupe. "Oh hey"! She came over to Lupe and sat down with her on the bleachers. "So nice to see you girl. You've gotten taller"?
Krystal was a popular cheerleader girl with a slim frame and ash brown hair.
Lupe looked her and said: "Evrythin alright pretty gal? Ya look like somethins bothrin ya"?
"Yeah, it's just"...
Lupe stared across the field and noticed Dwayne.
"Who's that hot-shot heeya"?
"What? You think he's cute or something"? Krystal made a smirk.
"Hey, ya talkin to yooa gal like that hea? I gotta tell ya don't be makin funny assumptions like that honey. Just nevah saw that fella hea befoa thats all. Capiche"?

Her father arrived at the school, she was quiet nervous, well she didn't know anyone and was wondering if she would fit in.
Charles looked at Brooklyn and asked "Promise me something.?" Brooklyn nodded and asked "Okay What?" she asked curious. "Promise me you'll make me proud" Her father said. Brooklyn laughed "Now your acting like I never went to school". As Brooklyn began to open the door she was grabbed in the arm by her father. "Wait" he said.."Promise me that you won't grow up" "No chance" she said laughing and getting out of the car.
Her shoes made a tapping sound as she stepped on the marble. She was being watched by everyone... it was creeping her out and made her feel...different...well crazy or special or some sort of person. She occasionally glanced at them. She searched for her locker when she found it she started unpacking her numerous books.

During the huddle the QB calls a passing play, Dwayne smiles because it's something he can actually be of use on, as usual he sees Mike in front of him, He seems excited, the QB yells out "Set!" and almost immediately "Hut!", Dwayne starts to run, following his route to the outside, he managed to get open against Mike so he raises his hand to call for the ball, the QB notice him and throws a high pass at his direction, he jumps to catch the ball but then sees Mike's number '45' in front of him, "Oh shit..." he whispers to himself, but fortunately the pass was to high for Mike to intercept, and the ball rests safely in Dwayne's hands, he starts to run towards the endzone, thinking he's in the clear, but then he feels the weight of two defenders forcing him hard to the ground, almost smashing him to it, he barely held on to the ball with the only thing keeping him to it is his thought about the coach's anger if he drops it, he really feels that heavy hit, keeping him to the ground for a while, he lays there, looking up at the sky when suddenly a hand waves in front of his facemask, "Hey hey, you still alive?" he heard in a familiar voice, he looks to the side and sees Mike and the safety standing beside him, "Just fine" he says with a heavy breath, Mike extends his hand to help Dwayne up, he takes Mike's hand and stand up, continuing with the practice.

The setting was pretty much setting now and Lupe decided to go back home. As usual, her mom was out working but she had made some food on the stove.
Lupe threw herself on her bed and fell asleep almost instantly.

"Hello my girl. Do you have new merchandise to sell to me"? He asked with his hoarse voice.
"Yes"! Lupe answered with a wide grin.
The old man let the girl in.
Lupe began spilling various expensive watches, jewelry, and gemstones she had been stealing on a wooden table.
Mr. Callaghan began observing each one with a magnifying glass.
"So sir, haw much ya gonna gimme foh these"? Lupe asked eagerly.
"Seventy-three bucks".
"What? Aw my gawd"! Lupe protested.
"Take it or leave it kid".
Lupe hesitated a moment then took the money and left.
She biked to school, locked her bike at the front entrance, then started walking towards the auto shop.
