A smirk lit my face and I couldn't help but feel a bit confident. I raised my pointer finger in the air as a sign of 'number 1'. "Number 1, I do not fit in a group. I'm not overly smart, I'm not an athlete, I'm not overly dorky, I'm not a Child of Darkness or whatever, and I'm sure as hell not going to be a fake person that only lives to do as I'm told. That is my reasoning behind not joining one of those stupid cliques that this school oh-so charishes. I'm only here to get out and go to college." I sighed and put up a second finger. "Number 2! I could care less about ratting you guys out. In fact, you guys don't seem like a bother to me. Why make a fire when there wasn't even a flame? Threatening me, sir? That could make a spark. I'm also pretty sure I can kick your ass twenty ways without a single scratch." I meet the Popular guy's eyes with a fiery glare of my own. "Like I said before, Redheads are crazy." I smiled sweetly, but my eyes said otherwise. I looked away from him and looked over at Alena. I couldn't help but feel flattered, even though I couldn't reciprocate the feelings. "I'm flattered, but I think I'm going to swing it alone." I was asked to go to this stupid dance all day, so I might as well make an appearance. I grinned at Alena. "I'm Hanna Jacklin, the newest addition to the Nope clique. Meaning, that's a nope to the bookies, the dorks, the nightlovers, the athletes, and the pretty boys." I send the polo shirt a sly smirk before looking back at beer boy. "Now, if we're done classifying people by how they act and how they dress, why don't we take in the fact that I'm not a robot. I'm not going to be like everyone else. I'm going to be me and I'm going to be unique. Sue me if being a person instead of a drone is illegal, but I prefer to be the only person in my life that chooses where I go and what I do." I smiled at Alena kindly. "You're chill. I'll introduce you to some of my... prettier friends if you catch my drift." I gave her a 'I got you' wink. I looked at the bookworm and grinned. "Sweetie, you don't choose the color. The color chooses you."
