Chapter 2 - First Day of School

Y/n's POV
You have been living in Canada for 1 and a half weeks now. It's not much different from where you used to live, and you have gotten used to your new life here. Now, things are going to get a little more challenging, because you are going to be starting school very soon. And you heard that Player, your neighbor next door, is also starting school, because he had been homeschooled for most of his life.

The alarm beeps loudly. You find your right leg dangling off the edge of the bed while your left arm is behind your pillow. You reach over with your right arm to turn off the annoying alarm on your phone and you get up, exhausted. You go to the bathroom down the hall and do the things a normal person does in the morning. You go back to your room and get dressed, and you go downstairs to get your stuff ready for school.

"Morning sweetheart," Mom greeted you as you walked down the stairs. "Good morning," you reply back. "Your dad is still sleeping in his room, and I have packed your lunch in your lunchbox already," said Mom. You thanked her and put on your book bag and carried your lunchbox on your left wrist. You said farewell to Mom as you make your way outside the door.

It looks like the bus hasn't arrived yet, so you decided to sit on your porch until it arrives. It is 6:58 AM and the sky is gloomy, like it's about to rain. You check your phone for the weather and you see that it's going to be sunny later on in the afternoon.

You play on your phone until you look up and you see the big, yellow school bus making its way down the street. You gather all your items and run down to the bus and when it stopped by your house, you hopped on.

There were dozens of students on the bus. You pass through the noisy kids and you make your way to the back, where you found an empty seat there. You sat by the window and put your bags beneath your feet and stare at your house while the bus moves.

The bus only needed to go a little forward to stop in front of Player's house. You gaze outside, not seeing any sign of Player. A few seconds passed, and the bus was about to move until you see a kid in a black jacket running towards the bus.

Player quickly jumps on the bus, and the bus driver says, "We were about to leave you back there, you got lucky this time kiddo." Player gazed down the rows of seats and makes his way to the back, where he stops by my seat.

"Mind if I sit here?" He scratches his head and you nod. Player was wearing a black jacket with black shorts and black sneakers. He pull on his hood and started fidgeting on his smart watch. You ignore him and continue glancing out the window.

Many houses later, the bus arrives at the school. You have never seen the school before, and it is humongous. You take out a sheet of paper with your schedule on it and wait till Player gets out first. After him, you follow the line of students making their way off the bus, and into the school.

"Hey y/n," Player calls and walks up to you. "What's your schedule?" You show him the piece of paper and he says, "We have the same classes together, great!" You feel relieved you have classes with someone you know.

"So uh, I don't know where class is," You said and Player shrugged. "I don't know either, but you can go ask a teacher and go to class first, I need to go do something real quick." You ask, "Okay, but what exactly are you doing?" "Just something, I'll be back," replied Player. And within a quick second, he's lost in the crowd.

You become very suspicious of him, but it is not the time to investigate. You go up to a teacher in the middle of the hallway and show them your schedule and ask where your classroom is. They point and give directions to where your class is and you thank them and walk off.
