It was the first day of school and I was terrified. What if no one likes me?!.......what if I don't fit in with any cliques?! My eyes scanned through my closet for something to wear. I stood there for awhile trying to decide what to wear. Finally I settled on a pair of pre-ripped white skinny jeans and and plain black top. I set my clothes on the bed and went into the bathroom to take a shower. I lathered my hair up with shampoo and rinsed. I then washed my body. Once I finished washing my body I turned off the water and stepped out. I gasped from the rush of cold as I opened the bathroom door. My room was always cold in the morning. I got dressed into my clothes and sat down at my vanity. I blow dried my hair and straightened it. Once I was pleased with how my hair looked, I moved on to my makeup. I decided to go for a simple look but changed my mind. I eventually decided on a winged eyeliner with nude eyeshadow and mascara. When I was done I was quite satisfied with how I looked. There was a knock on the door before my dad walked in

"You almost ready" he asked looking at what I was wearing "you're growing up to fast,where's my little girl" he always got all mushy on the first day of school...EVERY year. I was used to it now.

"She grew up,dad!" I said, as if I needed to remind him that I wasn't a little girl anymore.Im a junior in high school now. We had just moved here a few months ago. My dads job transferred him to Sydney. We've only been here for two weeks . I'm still trying to get used to it here. It's always hot here ,compared to New York!

"Alright we'll I'm leaving now. Don't forget that you have to catch the bus" he kissed my cheek and walk out my room. A few minutes later I heard the front door close. I had ten minutes before I had to catch the bus.
I ran downstairs and slipped on my black Toms and my black Victoria's Secret hoodie. I ran out the front door and slammed it shut behind me. I quickly locked the door and ran to the bus stop. The bus showed up right as I arrived at the bus stop. I got on the bus and took a seat. Because I didn't know anyone ; I just sat in the first seat I was one of the first stops. There were very few people on the bus . But I was fine with that. That just meant less people starring at me as I got on the bus. The wee a few more stops after me. The bus pulled up to the school gates and everyone filed off the bus. I was last to get off . I walked off the bus and stepped onto the hot pavement. It was quite hot for an autumn day! I didn't mind though, I like the heat. I was snapped out of my thoughts as I bumped into someone. I looks up to see a gorgeous boy with messy hair and dimples like craters in his face.

"Sorry" I mumbled as I looked back down smiling , and slightly blushing.

"It's alright" he's so dreamy. "But it helps if you don't stare at the hound while you walk" he said as he smirked at me.

I just let out a small ,sheepish laugh. The bell rang and I suddenly stopped smiling. "I have to go " I said bolting into the school.

I walked into fist period and there was a seating chart on the board. I searched for my name on the chart and sat where it said I would be sitting. I was the first one there. I sat patiently while the rest of the class filed in . I looked up from my hands to see that the same boy I bumped into earlier, was sitting right next to me! Maybe this would be a good day!?!
