[color=saddlebrown]Interacting with:[/color] Caleb Mckinnon ([@smarty0114]), and Blake ([@MechonRaptor])

[color=gray]"Oh, yeah, sure, totally. Uh just lemme..."[/color] the boy said hurriedly, his sentence trailing off as he cleared his things off the table. Her smile growing slightly, Ebony sat her food tray on the table, muttering a quick, [color=saddlebrown]"thanks,"[/color] before taking a seat,  She'd recognized the boy from all of her previous classes, but for some odd reason, couldn't recall his name. She'd always been terrible with names, but was always quick to remember a face. Once she'd sat down and took her plastic fork out of it's wrapper, Ebony noticed that he, like herself, was a photographer; his camera was sitting on the table. She was about to point that out, but it seemed as though he'd already beat her to it.

[color=gray]"Ebony, right? I'm Caleb,"[/color] the boy said, [color=gray]"That's uh, a pretty nice camera."[/color] The boy spoke nervously before dog-earing the page of his book and gesturing to the camera around her neck. Ebony made a mental note of his name, her smile widening as she glanced down at the camera around her neck. [color=saddlebrown]"Thanks,"[/color] she said, removing the strap from around her neck and placing it on the table beside her food tray. [color=saddlebrown]"My Auntie got it for me a couple of years ago, as a birthday present!"[/color] She was just about to speak again, when she felt a hand land lightly on her shoulder.

Turning her head quickly, Ebony saw none other than one of her good friends, Poetry. She was grinning, her head tilted slightly to the side. [color=gray]"Let's sit together in science class next time, Ebony-Gold,"[/color] she said, [color=gray]"Maybe we'll get to be project partners."[/color] Flashing Poetry a quick smile, Ebony just nodded her head in agreement, before her friend made her way towards another table. [color=gray]"Catch you on the flip."[/color] ([@LovelyAnastasia])

Directing her gaze back towards Caleb once more, Ebony shrugged her shoulders before continuing on. [color=saddlebrown]"Anyways, my Aunt saw me eyeballing the camera while we were in the store, so she bought it for me."[/color] She shifted her attention to his camera, [color=saddlebrown]"That's a cool camera you got there, too. What do you like to take pictures of?"[/color] Her eyes also landed on the book that he'd been reading not too long ago. [color=saddlebrown]"Whatcha' reading?"[/color]

As she spoke, Ebony opened her Italian dressing and poured it all over her salad, mixing it all together with her fork. When she'd finished speaking, she took a few small, delicate bites, awaiting his answer. It wasn't long, though, before someone else made their way to the table, taking the seat right next to Ebony. Blake had a smile plastered across his face, as usual.

[color=gray]“Hey Caleb, Ebony! I hope you guys don’t mind if I sit here too.”[/color] He told them, even though he essentially already made that decision to sit. Ebony laughed lightly, shaking her head. 

[color=saddlebrown]"Nah, we don't mind, Blake,"[/color] she said with a friendly smile, [color=saddlebrown]"How's ya day going so far?"[/color]

She averted her eyes away from Blake, though, when she'd caught a glimpse of red hair walk by. She instantly recognized the girl as Amelia, who had also been in their previous three classes. After hearing a bit about how things were for the girl at home during homeroom, Ebony had made a mental note to try and befriend her, maybe even help her, but she had yet to follow through. Her eyes followed Amelia as she made her way towards a group of students, her arms wrapping around her boyfriend, Ezera. From where she was sitting, Ebony could see that Amelia was crying. She also couldn't help but notice the nasty bruises the covered her arm, and the large red welt on the girl's cheek. [color=saddlebrown]"That poor girl,"[/color] Ebony said. She and Amelia were only acquaintances, but somehow she knew that something had been going on with her. The bruises and welts practically confirmed it. She was just about to leave the table and see what was up before another girl entered the picture. ([@carla6677])

She watched Amelia and the new girl argue for a few minutes before shaking her head and turning back to the table. [color=saddlebrown]"This is just way too much drama for the first day,"[/color] she sighed, stabbing at her salad leaves with the fork.
