Leo tried not to panic, he really did, his body shaking as he walked with Liz towards the Home Room, certainly the chances were she wouldn't get them to do anything in front of anyone, but still, the idea made his heart race and bad memories flood his mind as they continued to walk.
He would have loved to be going to Homeroom had it been eight years ago, but now, after everything which had happened, the feeling of joy was replaced with one of fear and panic.
"So....she won't...get us to you know....perform anything right? I mean....its...just...not like that right?" he asked with a nervous smile and laugh as he looked to Liz.
He wanted to explain to her why he was so nervous and clearly going a little pale, but the only person who really knew was Sandra and even she didn't know the full extent of how bad it was and Liz, as nice as she was, was a girl he had met ten minutes ago.
"Just....I'm not much of.....well....I was but......" he trailed off, swallowing slightly before looking back ahead.o

Elizabeth walked with Leo throughout the halls , getting to Darbus's room. She greeted some kid's in the hallway as she passed , giving them a high five. Liz smiled and laughed. "No Ms. Darbus won't make you do that." Liz sighed sensing he was nervous , wanted to make him feel better. She saw his face going pale and she felt bad. " Aw Leo . Its gonna be okay." She nodded her head for him to go on with what he was saying. They were at the door of Darbus's room now. Liz looked in the classroom and didn't see alot of people in yet such as her brother Troy , Gabriella , Sharpay or Ryan.

Leo smiled weakly and nodded slightly, the colour returning to his face. "Right....yeah you're right, just nervous is all, it's been a while since....well I acted...." he smiled weakly, leaving the statement hanging as he quickly walked into the Homeroom and realised that they must be a minute or two early considering apart from two other students chatting, nobody else had arrived, not even the teacher.
"Guess we have a little time to relax" he smiled in relief slowly taking a seat and hoping Liz would choose to sit next to him since he was the only one he knew so far. "Whats Miss Darbus like?" he asked curiously, turning to face Liz.

Liz smiled a reassuring smile to try to make him feel better. " Aw , you'll be okay. East High's a very welcoming school." Elizabeth walked into the room after Leo , following him and seeing as he took her usual seat . She sat down next to him. " Yes , relaxation. " Liz breathed in a sigh of relief. Liz got her notebook out of her bag and checked to make sure her phone was on silent. " Ms.Darbus is well very artsy and very obsessed with the theatre. I've never had a problem with her. But I don't recommend getting detention with her. Her type of detention is painting theatre sets , backdrops or dressing rooms. Not my type of fun." She said laughing alittle bit.

Troy walked into homeroom, deciding to actualy show up on time to avoid getting a lecture from Darbus. He looked around the room and saw that none of his friends had arrived yet - figures. He moved over to his seat, smirking lightly as he saw Liz talking to..a new guy?
He smirked lighty, making his way over. He tapped Liz on the shoulder, "Hey sis" he said, nodding to her with a small grin. He then took the seat from the next desk, sliding it across the floor for it settle next to Liz. He climbed on it backwards, looking between the new guy and Liz.
He then turned his attention to the blonde, "Hey, I'm Troy" he said with a small nod, "You're new?" he asked, obviously knowing the answer considering he knew the popualtion of East High backwards and forwards.

"Thanks Liz, but you've already proven to me it's welcoming" he smiled gently, not even noticing Troy's presence for a few seconds until he heard his voice call out to Liz, blinking, he turned his head slightly to the other and offered a polite smile, thogh unsure if the other was interested in him, he chose to turn back to Liz, smiling as he did.
"I can imagine, I was never a great painter, I ended up usually with more paint on me then on the paper" he smiled, but blinked in suprise when Liz's brother, who apparently was called Troy, came closer and watch the pair, though it was clear he was more interested in Leo then his sister.
Smiling warmly at the introduction, he replied. "I'm Leo" he said and nodded at the others question. "Yeah, this is my first day, I moved from......" he paused, not sure if he wanted to mention exactly where since it would end up with his status being already revealed, the limo this morning had been bad enough.
"...from out of state, this is my first time in New Mexico"

Troy lent forward on the back of the chair and chuckled lightly when Leo mentioned paint. "If your talking aboout detention with Darbus I suggest you stay on her good side" he laughed, recalling the time last year he got detention for having his cell out, only to have Gabriella and Chad close by him. He smirked lightly at the memory and turned back to Leo when he started talking.
He nodded when Leo introduced himself, smiling lighty. "Oh okay, well..welcome to New Mexico I guess" he said, shrugging lightly as he kept the smile on his face. He then glanced to the door quickly, seeing if any of his friends had arrived yet, no such luck. He soon shrugged it off, turning back to Liz and Leo.

Liz sighed as she saw her brother arrive. " Oh hey Troy." She said with alittle smile. Her grin kinda faltered. Thanks God for Troy's bad timing. I wanted alittle more time to get to know Leo. She looked at Leo and laughed at his reference about paint. " Oh my gosh me too! I hate Art. Half my clothes are ruined." Liz sighed and drifted off as Troy and Leo were talking. There introductions were made and unfortunately Troy stuck around. Troy chooses now to be a protective older brother. Liz tried to look to see if any Troy's friends were coming , no such luck. Liz then turned to Leo and asked him a question. " Leo do you like East High so far ? "

Leo felt slightly like he was in the middle of some kind of rivalry between the two Boltons, being asked questions on both sides, he found it a little hard who to respond to and began to wish someone would show up. Turning to Troy since he asked first, he finally spoke;
"Yeah, doesn't sound like the biggest blast in the world, but apart from that, New Mexico is a lot different from LA, the people here are really welcoming" he smiled, kicking himself meantally for mentoning where he had originally come from but showing no visual signs of regretting the statement.
Now turning to Liz quickly, he smiled slightly and nodded. "It's...definetley different, has to be the first school I've been to where people have warned me about teachers and what they hate, usually most schools find fun in watching the new guy struggle."

Liz listened as Leo answered Troy's question first. It was only fair. She understood. " Your from L.A? " Liz asked smiling. " That's cool." Liz wasn't really that into Hollywood types and acting. She did read a teen magazine or two. But she didn't get all that obsessed with them . Liz sighed. " I hate when people do that. That's so mean." Watching a new kid struggle was not Liz's type of fun. Liz didn't have a rivalry with her brother, she was just kinda bummed. Cause she wanted to show Leo around the school , introduce him to everybody. She thought he was cute

Troy nodded lightly when Leo answered his earlier question, "L.A huh? Know any celebs?" he asked with a small smirk. He gazed around the room once again, knowing that the bell was soon due to go, but still none of his friends had shown up. He rolled his eyes at the matter before turning back to his sister when she spoke. He chuckled lightly at Leos answer, "Yeah. East High..changed last year. For the good" he said with a small shrug and smile, recalling what happened after Troy and Gabriella landed the leads in Twinkle Towne..breaking the schools respective cliques. "So why'd you move from L.A?" He asked, curiousty taking over. He quickly gazed around the room once again, seeing that a few more people had arrived in homeroom, he smiled lightly at a few fellow Wildcats, giving them either a friendly grin, handshake or slap on the arm.

Leo smiled slightly at Liz and nodded and shrugged it off. "I got used to it, I've moved around a lot so I kind of expected it after a while" he smiled slightly, turning to Troy and smiling slightly. "I wasn't there for very long, LA was where I was born but I've also lived on Florida, Texas, England for a while, Spain, back to LA and now here..." he said though his face altered at the celebirty part.
"My mom knew a lot of them....she was a big star in the nintees, Ashely Bartlet" he explained, though quickly moving on with conversation. "Though I did meet Jenifer Aniston once, she played with my toys with me when I was a kid" he smiled slightly.

Troy listened to what Leo was saying to Liz, nodding slowly as he spoke. "Wow, you have moved around alot" he said, chuckling lighty. He rasied an eyebrow when Leo mentioned his mom was a star in the 90s, he nodded a bit at that. "Oh, cool" he said with a small grin, not actually heard of Ashey Bartlet himself but his parents may of.
When Leo mentioned Jennifer Aniston, Troy's mouth dropped lightly. "Wow, thats awesome" he said, grinning. He then thought about when Leo mentioned how many times he's moved around, and in all the diffrent countries. "Do you mind moving so much..I mean, must suck having to move all the time" Troy asked him, knowing that Gabriella has moved around a bit herself.

"Yeah, when I was young it was always a big adventure, I couldn't wait to see where we would go next, but as I got older it got less fun...and then..." he trailed off, realising he was getting a bit too ahead of himself, he didn't feel like spilling his story all in one go, especially in front of two people he had met only today.
"It doesn't matter, it just got tiering after a while" he smiled faintly and nodded his head. "Yeah, I've probably still got a picture of it somewhere" he smiled slightly. It was weird conversation, Troy was clearly a good or so, at the very least, older then Troy yet he was very easy talk to, he seemed open minded to put it bluntly and genuiely intersted in him, he reminded him of Liz, who he gave a warm glance to and a soft smile.

" Wow that is alot of place's that you've moved too. Must have been really hard to start your all over again at new school's." Liz said sending Leo a friendly smile. " Oh , your mom was a celebrity? That's cool. " Liz then made a mental note to ask her Mom about Ashley Bartlet or google her. Liz then heard him mention Jennifer Aniston. " Oh my gosh! I love her. Friends is like my favorite show ever. If you ever find the picture , you must show me. Ok? " Liz then sighed. Moving around when he was little must have been exciting but then moving around once you get older must have been tough. " I understand what your saying Leo. I'm sorry you had to go through all that. " Liz then smiled once more not too wide but genuine.
