I’m hoping this time will be different. I get out of the car and lock it hearing the sad honk it lets out. This car is over 8 years old but it still works for traveling small distances. It was my mom’s for seven years but when I turned sixteen, she gave it to me. She was planning on buying a new one anyway. It's a 2010 silver ford focus. I started to walk toward the school then I hear someone honk, I turn to look. “Is this your car?” he said after rolling down his window. He drove a 2018 red Jeep Wrangler. He had straight, dark brown hair, bright blue eyes and looked fairly tall from what I could see. “Yes it is, why?” I replied.
“You’re in my spot.”
“I don’t see your name on it, but I do see ‘student parking’. Unless your name is student parking then I will gladly move.” I say sarcastically.
He drove away but not after giving me a dirty look, ah don’t you just love people who think they are everything and are: ‘never wrong’.
I open the main doors and walk into a student filled hall. Great just great, how am I supposed to get through to the main office. I don’t even know where it is. Well let's just try to get past this. I walk inside and try to get through by saying excuse me but nobody even looks in my direction and they aren’t even walking they are just standing there not giving two shits to who is trying to get by. “They are like trying to walk through a wall aren’t they?” I look to see who said that and there was a girl with long, curly, red-ish, orange hair, she was only slightly taller than me, and brown eyes. “Um… yeah.” I said. “Don’t worry I got you, where are you going?” she asked. “The office. Wh-” she grabbed my hand and started walking before I could finish talking. She starts pushing people out of the way. They just let it happen and don’t care. This school is messed. We get through the wall of people. “The office is just down that hall and to the left.” she said. “Thank you. What’s your name?” I asked. “Sof. You?” “Bella.”
I open the office door to the office, I step in and the first person I see is the asshat from the parking lot. He was sitting on one of the chairs and I look over at him and he glares back. I walk up to the desk and ask who I am supposed to talk to and they ask me to sit and wait. The only chair left to sit in was the one next to asshat. I sit next to him. “So your new. That’s what I thought.” he said looking over at me. “Yeah, I am.” I kept looking forward but I could feel his eyes on me. A lady with short, straight, blond hair and green eyes, she walks out of the office that says 'principle' on it. “Parker, come in.” the guy that I sat next to me gets up and starts to walk over to the principle. “Hello Parker.” she looks over to me and says “You’re Bella right? I’m the principal, Ms. Jerry. I will be with you in about five minutes.” said Ms. Jerry. “Okay, thank you Ms. Jerry.” I say. They walk into her office then the bell for first period starts. Parker walks out and glances at me then opens the glass door leading to the hall. Ms. Jerry comes out of the door leading to her office and looks and me and tells me to come in.
“Your first day and I’m already causing you to be late, but don’t worry your first period teacher knows that I was going to be talking to you.” said Ms. Jerry
“Okay that’s good, thank you.” I replied
“You transferred from Hasers Secondary School to this school, Bush Toter Secondary School. Your last day was Friday October fifth. Is that Correct?”
“Yes I wasn’t in any school for two weeks because we were moving.”
“So I have your timetable, first period you have English, then American History, Visual Arts, and Chemistry. Lunch is in between your English and Art class.”
“Thank you so much.”
“If you have any questions let me know and if you need help finding a classroom or anywhere any teacher will be happy to help.”
“Thank you and I don’t have any questions.”
“Okay here is your schedule your first class is C111. Your classroom is on the first floor and when you walk into the academic halls it will be the first hall.”
“Okay thank you, it was nice to meet you.”
“You too Bella.”
I walk out of the room and out of the office into the hallway.
I walk down the main hall into the academic halls, I start walking down C hall looking at every classroom and finally come across C111. I’m only about 10 minutes late and so announcements are still going and every one in the class is talking. I walk into the room and scanned the room for the teachers desk. I walk up to the teacher. “Hello, you must be Bella. I’m Mrs. White.” she said. Mrs. White has long black hair, brown eyes and is very short. “Hello.” I reply. “We are starting a new unit today so you don’t have anything to catch up on, so you can find any seat that isn’t taken.” she said. I nod and thank her. I go to find a seat when I suddenly hear my name being called. I look to where it was coming from and I see Sof sitting in a seat at the back of the classroom with an empty spot next to her. I walk up to her and as I do I look to see who sits on the other side of that seat and of course with my luck guess who, yeah, of course it’s the one and only Parker.
I go sit in between Sof and Parker. Trying to keep an open mind, I say hello to Sof. The announcements stopped and the bell to begin class rang. Mrs. White start’s talking about the new unit. “This unit we will be reading ‘Indian Horse’.” I’m only half listening because now I know that I don’t have to be listening. She hands out copies of the book. She tells us about some of the projects that we will be doing after we read the book. The rest of the class we just read. The bell rings for second period, this class was a little harder to find but I managed. Second class went by fast. Then it was lunch, I went into the main hall and walked out the front doors because there was no way I was just going to sit alone in the hall. On my way to my car I see Sof and a couple other people. She gestures for me to walk over, so I do. “Do you wanna come to Qac Donald's with us?” she asked as I reach her group of friends. “Sure, why not.” she introduced me to all of her friends. “This is Sydney, Connor, Marcus, Brooke, and Amy.” Sydney had long, straight, blue and purple hair and gray eyes. Connor had bright, straight, blond hair, green eyes and was very tall at least six feet tall. Marcus has curly, black hair, brown eyes and he was also very tall. Brooke had wavy, white hair just above her shoulders and brown eyes. Amy had long, straight, pastel pink hair and blue eyes. “Oh and by the way me and Sydney are a thing.” Sof whispers to me.
