Cliffhanger (Lashton Au)

1

"Lucas! Lucas, get up! You're going to be late!" My mum, yells at me from the door way of my room. Groaning in annoyance, I roll a little to the left of my bed to be met with the floor. How great. With a sigh, I pick myself up from the floor and make my way to the bathroom to get ready. First day at a new school. Fun. Thinking of all the things that can go wrong I walk into the bathroom to take a shower.

I take the towel rubbing it over my hair one more time before finally hanging it up, making my way over to the mirror to fix my hair. I pull my hair up into some quiff type thing, spraying it with some hairspray before grabbing my blue flannel and putting it on as I walk down the stairs to the kitchen. I'm already running late therefore, no breakfast which is actually a normal thing for me so it doesn't really matter. Grabbing my bag, I walk out the door to my mum's black range rover; sitting in the passenger side while she starts the car and pulls out onto the road.

When we arrive the parking lot is packed with teens. Jocks, with the girls. Gamers, with their games. Nerds, with their books. And a group of 'outcasts'. I slowly open the door of the car climbing out and making my way to this new hell I will be attending for the next year.

Walking through the doors I can hear all the whispers from everyone. "Is he new?" "I don't know but he's hot" "He looks cool" all the whispers continue as I make my way to the office. Opening the office door, I make my way over to the desk; the lady at the desk looks up to me with a friendly smile. "And how may I help you, dear?" she asks. "I-Uh- I'm Luke Hemmings and um I'm new here. So I- uh don't know where anything is." I stutter out, mentally cursing my awkwardness. "Oh yes, of course here hun" she says, flipping through some files and pulling out a sheet of paper. She hands it to me with a kind smile and I thank her as I leave the office.

Locker; 127, here we are. I open it up placing my folders and bag inside and just as I'm about to shut my locker, I get a tap on my shoulder. Slightly startled I turn around, my eyes being met with an intimidating red haired boy. "Hey, my names' Michael and I've noticed your new here. Would you like a tour of the place?" He speaks, confidently. "Yea, um sure," I say, still slightly confused. He just smiles and asks, "here let me see your schedule" I hand it to him, and watch as his eyes quickly scan over it. He is quite attractive, not that I would admit that. Right now at least. I'm snapped out of my thoughts when he speaks up, "I only have 4th and 6th period with you but Calum has first and third with you so your okay there, and Josh has second and fifth so your set for the day. "He says, while I look at him with a confused look. Who is Calum? And Josh? I don't know these people.

"Oh, right! Yea I almost forgot" He laughs, "Lets go meet Calum, and Josh." We walk down a long hallway to an open area. Teens scattered everywhere. We walk up to a couch type thing in the middle with at least 15 people crammed onto it. As we approach the group Michael yells "hey guys I'm back, and I've brought-" he then turns to me and whispers "I'm sorry but what's your name? I forgot to ask" he giggles, making me flush red. "Oh um Luke" I tell him, as he continues to shout. "And I've brought Luke back with me," I awkwardly wave with a small smile. Michael begins to introduce me to everyone. "Luke this is Alex," He points to a brown haired boy with a grey beanie. "And this is Jack" he points to another brown fringed haired boy. "This is Calum and Josh" he motions, to two lads on a smaller couch. The boy I now know as Calum has girl on his lap.

The girl clears here throat looking at Michael who rolls his eyes with a fake smile, "and this here Luke is Emma, Calum's girlfriend" I look up, at her. She would be quite stunning if I was attracted to girls but I happen to not be. Calum gives me a friendly smile, and I return it. "Calum could you walk Luke to first period? He has the same as you," Michael asks, now playing on his phone. "Yea sure" Calum says, slowly standing up allowing his girlfriend off his lap, who rolls her eyes in annoyance. "Okay so we have first period math, with Mrs. Crim so lets not be late because she will not act well on that" he tells me as we walk down a long hallway, taking a left to stand in front of a door I can only assume to be math.

We walk in, me getting a few stares from the other students; but we walk to the back of the room. Calum sitting down and me next to him. Another teacher then walks into the room before telling us "Mrs. Crim will be here in about 15 minuets, so please just sit and wait patiently thank you. "He says, before just walking out and everyone gets a little louder. Calum then turns to me and starts talking, "Okay so here is a little advice to keep your social status with us, first you will sit with us at lunch and only our group whenever you have a break or free time. Second avoid any contact with the nerds because that's just social suicide. And third stay away from cliffhanger."
