Vanessa's P.O.V

Its my first day at my new school. It will be fine. Everyone will love you. No need to panic!

What are you saying. They'll hate you don't be so stupid.

I kept trying to think positive but my brain just kept bursting my bubble.

"Deep breaths, you can do this" I kept mumbling to myself.

My mum had just dropped me off at my new school in complete silence. We haven't talked much in the past few days. Things haven't been too good between us lately.

Here I am walking up to the school office wearing my All Time Low band tee, a black over-sized cardigan and bright red skinny jeans with my long, wavy, light brown hair falling down my back.

I really regret the red jeans now. Everyone is staring at me and whispering I just know it. I must really stand out and I probably look incredibly awkward.

Just smile. The day will be over soon.

I walked into the school office to be greeted by a young woman, probably min 20's. She was totally one of those over- happy types.

"Hello there. How can I help?" The lady at the front desk asked me with the biggest smile. Why cant I be that happy. I would do anything in the world to have a life like that.

"HI. Um I'm Vanessa Bell. Its my first day here, I got told to come here?" I said awkwardly like usually.

"Uhh. Yes! I've been expecting your arrival Miss Bell. Here is your schedule, and here is your lovely guide Tarra McRae." She passed me a piece of paper and a girl with red hair and cute freckles popped out from around the corner, I guess that's Tarra.

"Uh, thanks" I half smiled.

"Hope you have a lovely first day Miss Bell! Don't hesitate to come back if you need anything" The overly-happy lady said.

"Sure, thank you. Bye" I say politely and turned to walk away and find my home room.

When I heard "Hey Vanessa wait up!" I turned around. It was that Tarra girl.

"What's up?" I asked, probably sounding rude, I really need to work on my people skills.

"Hey, I'm Tarra. You can call me Tar. I'm meant to show you around and be like your helper and whatever." She sounded quite shy and mumbling a little bit.

I walked away quickly because I thought she would be stuck-up and not want to show me around. But I have a feeling that she's a lot nicer than I first thought. Again, really gotta work on those people skills.

"Oooh, right. I'm Vanessa. Could you help me find my homeroom please?" I asked with a smile. Maybe I can make a friend. Probably not but i guess its worth a shot.

"Of course! Let me see your schedule?" I pass her the piece of paper and she started smiling and laughing. I look at her a little weirdly wondering why shes laughing.

"Whats so funny?" I ask. I was rather confused about her outburst.She lifts her head up slightly blushing.

"Oh sorry. You didn't need to hear my hideous laugh. Its just that was have most classes together. I guess that's why Mrs. Golden set me up at your guide. The only classes I don't take that you do is photography and music. I'm more into cooking and fashion design. But other than that you'll see me most of the day" She says slightly blushing again.

"Your laugh is not hideous, I think its cute. Well i guess thet's a good thing. I'll have someone to sit with." Shit. Did i say that? What were you thinking? She's not going to want to sit with you. She started smiling.
