Nel stood by her locker. It was her first day at this new school. Her parents had let her stay in Michigan until the first of 2010, then it was time to get her butt here. Now as she starts her first day of this new school, she is wondering what kind of people she is going to meet here. She was a little nervous, but she knew she had to.
She pulled her ReClaim out of her back pocket and realized she still had five minutes til her first bell, then she got a text that just made her smile. Brendan, babe, imu sooo much cant wait 2 cu. xoxo luv u. Finally something bright to look forward to she thought, lunch she could call him. But until then.......

As she stood there replying to the text, she heard a voice come from next her. All she heard was, "This yours?" She looked at him and mumbled, "Probably, what exactly is it?" She wasn't sure what he was holding, but she had an idea that she had dropped something as she was putting stuff into her locker.
She looked him up and down, then down and up. Cute, yes. Single, probably not. But she was fine with. She didn't exactly know what this guy was up to, but she kind of wanted to figure it out. He was so mysterious, dark, edgy looking.

Oh, No, They Broke Out

At first he thought she was seriously just going to ignore him. Gabriel tried not to judge books by the cover, but she did look like the kind of girl who would try and get away with something like that.
Then she was looking up, distractedly, from her phone and giving him the once, or was that twice?, over. Gabriel had the impression she'd just ran a scanner over every inch of him. It was just a tad disorienting. She was pretty, in that Hollywood model sort of way. Since Juliet, he'd been partial to dark brunettes.
If one could call partial a dating preference. He hadn't dated in....jeez, he didn't remember the last time he'd dated. There had been Brooke, but she was in Hadley for sexual degeneracy. She was all over every guy who put up with her. And Tifa had been...odd.
No, Gabriel couldn't remember the last time he'd actually gone up to a girl with thoughts other than what her greatest fear might be. Without wondered how loud she could scream. Morbid, to say the least.
Gabriel glanced down at the paper in his hand, then back up at her. "Looks like a schedule." He gave a small shrug, silver eyes giving her the twice-over right back. It was much too public for Gabriel to be his normal, eerie self. So he'd have to settle for a normal high schooler.
Except he didn't even know how to get back out to the parking lot, nevermind make up a class he might have to be going to.

Glancing back at her phone and at him, Nel saw him giving her the twice over now.. Hmmmm she thought, maybe this wouldn't be as bad as I thought.
"Yeah, I think it is.. I'm DeNel by the way, but most everyone calls me Nel." She figured she would start with the basics first by telling him her name. She figured atleast she would have a name to go with a face now if she ever saw him around the school again.
"What's your name?" she asked. She wasn't sure what this was going to end up like, but she sure did want to find out.

The phone irritated him. Sure, sometimes Gabriel pointedly ignored people, but that was when he was toying. Or about to do something else. She was just torn between him and the phone. What could someone possibly be saying to her that kept her from having a decent conversation?
She thought it was?
Wasn't that the name at the top of the page? DeNel something. Gabriel almost sighed in exasperation at her. Alright, well, you can work with this. He coaxed himself, trying to edge out of the shell he'd put himself in when he was around people besides Eliza or Hugo.
"Gabriel" he replied evenly. "Just Gabriel."
Hugo was the only one who got away with calling him Gabe. Eliza had never used a nickname, so the situation hadn't really come up, on whether he was comfortable with Eliza calling him by a nickname. Well. Tifa had called him many things. Fallen Angel, Monster. Other people using a nickname, as if they were familiar with him, as if they were friends, annoyed Gabriel. Of course, he'd probably never say that out right. It was rude.
"So you're new? I've been here...a couple of weeks now. Just moved back." He bit his lip and tried to think of something else to say. "I don't really go here...I'm just looking for someone."
Yes, bring up the girl you're rooming with to the chick who's checking you out. What a wonderful idea, Gabriel.

Nel pushed her phone into her back pocket. She put her hand out to shake his, as it was the right thing to do.
"Nice to meet you Gabriel." Then when she had realized he was looking for someone she felt a little down.
"You don't exactly go here?" She wasn't sure what he meant by that, but she sure wanted to know, as for looking for someone hmm might be interesting.

I Tried So Hard

Oh good, she finally put the damn thing away. Gabriel had the feeling that if technology busted, nine out of ten people would drop dead of a heart attack. Reluctantly, he took the hand, still a little nervous about being in contact with people.
In Hadley, touching someone could get your nose smashed into a locker. But then, she'd offered the hand, and this was a normal school. So far.
"Um, no. I was here for a few months a year or so ago. But I had to leave, and well." His hand dropped back to his hand, and he offered her a crooked grin. "Now I'm back, but I'm not...going to school anymore. I um...I'm moved out of my house. Not graduated...exactly. Its really complicated."
A bell rang. Gabriel glanced around edgily. How funny, he thought, would it be to follow her to class.

She chuckled a little at his response. She didn't really want to be at school, she never really did. She hardly ever went to school, even if her parents took her to school, she would usually forge their signature and skip school and go smoke pot. She wasn't a stoner, but she smoked when she wanted to. It helped her deal with her depression.
"Well I'm not really up for going to class, and I don't really have a vehicle, so do you wanna hang out or something and show me around town?" She had only been in town for a couple of days and she really hadn't check the place out yet. So, she figured if he was up for showing her around town, it might be a good way to get to know him and then she would also have a good feel for this new town.
"I haven't really gotten a chance to check out this town. You could show me where the cool spots are to chill, and the hiding spots are..." She was kind of excited to experience the new town. Get to know all the people, and find out where the spots are good for smoking.
She was up for anything really. And Gabriel seemed like a really cool guy that she could get along with. She was up for getting to know him better. So she hoped he would accept the offer.
