-Lapis' POV-

It's the first day of the next school year! It's been one year already since I started attending Beach City High (Name that was overly used XD). During that time I gained some friends which is great!

I get ready, putting on a blue sweater and black shorts, and walk to school

Arriving there I see my friends outside, Pearl, Amethyst, Jasper, Ruby and Sapphire. I run over time them and greet them all, and we go inside the building

"So did ya guys hear of the newbie that's coming here?" Jasper asked us

We all shook our heads

"A new student? Where are they from?" I ask

"Apparently they came from Homeworld High and then they came here" Jasper explains

Hmmm a new student, maybe a new friend!

Me and jasper go to our first class since we had the same first period

Once the class starts our teacher, Ms. Opal,hushed us

"Alright students, as some of you may know we have a new student from Homeworld high, make sure they're treated well here! Now come in" she gestures towards the door

A short blond haired girl walks in the class, dressed with a black shirt, a green flannel, and jeans.

"Introduce yourself" Opal says the the new kid

"Im Peridot Diamond, I come from Homeworld high. Pleasure to meet you all"

Peridot. Her name is Peridot

Some people snicker a bit at her formal greeting

To my right I see Jasper with a shocked face

"What's wrong Jasper?" I ask her

"I-I know her!"

"What"

-Time Skip to lunch-

Me and my friends sit together outside under a tree

"So did you see the new kid?" Amethyst asks us while pointing at Peridot who was eating alone, far from us

"Yeah we saw her, Jasper was more shocked to see her"

"Really? Why was that Jasper?" Pearl asks

"Because... Me and Peridot came from Homeworld Elementary in the Yellow district"

Now I went to Homeworld elementary but I was from the blue district

"She was a smart kid in elementary school. But she always kept to herself, never letting anyone become friends with her, let alone talking with people."

"Why was that?" I ask

"Well, while the teachers were amazed by Peridot's intelligence, the students didn't like it, they would constantly bully her for her brains. Then she made friends with one person, who betrayed her  in the end. After that she never talked to anyone."

We were all silent, in shock of Jasper's tale

Peridot Diamond...

You don't need to be alone now...
