Sammi's POV

"Sammi wake up you're going to be late!" "Shit", I groaned. First day of school and I'm going to be late. Moving back to England has been a big change. "Sammi!" mom yelled once more. "I'm up mom!" I yelled back before literally rolling out of bed and into my bathroom. Wow I must've slept pretty hard because my hair is everywhere. After brushing my teeth I decided to pull my long curly hair up into a messy bun. Then I put on my glasses and head down stairs to the kitchen. "Morning mom", I say while sighing. "Morning sleeping beauty, ready for school?" she asked with a smile. "Of course" I replied sarcastically. What teen do you know that's excited to go to school? Me especially, I mean it's my first day of senior year and I won't know anybody. "Well you know I think Jenny goes to school with you maybe you'll run into her" Mom said, bringing me out of my thoughts. Jenny was my best friend before I left to live with my dad. We did basically everything together. I wonder if she still remembers me. "Oh really?" "Yeah, they moved from the neighborhood but they aren't that far" she replied. Looking at the time on my phone I realized I was late. "Mom I have to go! Bye Love you!" I said quickly before grabbing my bag and running out the door without hearing her reply. I quickly unlocked the doors to my car and threw my bag into the passenger seat.

About fifteen minutes later I arrived at the school, there was barely any students outside letting me know I really am late. After grabbing my things and locking my doors I made my way into the big brick school, once inside I look around for a main office. Took a while but I found it, the first thing I saw when entering was a head of chocolate curls, wow they looked really soft... I wonder whom they belong to. "Hi sweetheart how can I help you?" the lady at the front desk asked. "Hi my name is Samiara Holliman and I'm new to this school" I replied. "Ahh yes Samiara here you are, such a pretty name you have" she says while typing away at her computer. "I'll be right back with your schedule dear". "Thank You," I replied with a wide smile. While waiting for my schedule I decided to try to get a glimpse of the face of the curly lad sitting to the side. The mysterious curly haired boy wouldn't look up. "Come in Harry" a lady, said to him, I think she's the principal. He puts his phone in his pocket and stands; he's huge! Well compared to me I'm only 5'5''. He looked over at me before walking into the office after the principal. Wow he was gorgeous; he had emerald green eyes, full pink lips, and the curls to set it off. "Here's your schedule sweetie," the lady at the desk said snapping me out of my thoughts of the boy. "Your first class is down that hall and to the left, once in that hall it'll be the second door on the right." "Thank you so much Miss," I said before walking out of the office, following the directions she gave me.

When I walked into the class everyone stopped and stared at me. I hate that shit; they act like they've never seen a person before. "You must be.." "Samiara" I said. People think my name is pronounced SaMara but its Sami-Air-a. " What a unique name, well everyone this is Samiara and she's new to our school". The teacher stood up and announced to everyone who still just stared at me like I had the plague. "You can have any empty seat, by the way my name is Mr. Brandt," the teacher told me while sitting back down. "Nice to meet you Mr. Brandt" I replied before making my way to the back of the room to an empty seat. Math has always been my favorite subject in school, maybe because I'm so good at it. Being that it's only the third day of school there aren't any assignments given. I made it to all of my classes late but the teachers understood. It was now time for lunch; I entered the lunchroom and stood in line thinking of what I wanted. I decided to grab an apple and a bottle of water. I think I'll just go to the library or something I mean I literally don't know anyone. Mom said Jenny goes here but I've yet to run into her or recognize her.

"Samiara?" Someone behind me in line says. I furrowed my brows while turning around, the boy from the office. What was his name again? Larry? Jerry? ...His speaking interrupts my thoughts, "Hi, my name is Harry". That's right Harry! "Um.. Nice to meet you Harry." I said somewhat confused. What could he possibly want from me? "Sorry if I startled you, I was in the office this morning when you came in, that's how I know your name" He says while rubbing at the back of his head. "Oh it's fine.. I think I saw you sitting off to the side," I said still not understanding why he wants to talk to me. "Um so I was thinking since you didn't know anyone I could show you around? What do you think?" He sounds...nervous? All kinds of thoughts are running through my head, wow he's really attractive, and those eyes... I quickly realized that I had been staring and began to talk. "Uh actually I do know someone here I just haven't ran into her yet, maybe you could help?" "Sure what's her name?" He asks sounding eager. "Jennifer Rodriguez, but she goes by Jenny err or at least she did" I said, not sure what she goes by now days. "Hey! I know her but she doesn't go here anymore, she moved to live with her aunt and uncle in Bradford," "Oh" I said a little sadden that I wouldn't get to reunite with my childhood best friend.

I was really looking forward to that since I haven't seen or talked to her since I was last in England. "Sorry, were you guys close?" He asked, hearing the sadness in my response. "Yeah we were best friends before I moved to America to live with my dad.." I replied. "What made you come back if I may ask?" He asked leading me to an empty table. I notice a lot of girls staring at us and whispering to each other. "Well, my dad is very busy with work and doesn't get to be home a lot and I really missed my mom so I decided it was time to come home, but she's a doctor and is hardly home anyway but being back in London just feels right," Just as I finish my sentence the bell signaling lunch is over rings and everyone begins to exit the cafeteria. "It was nice talking to you Samiara," He says smiling at me while we stand. "You too Harry and please call me Sammi!" I said with a grin on my face. "See you around" is the last thing he says before we parted ways.
