Every first day of school made her nervous. She didn't know if they'd like her or think of her as a freak. It didn't matter that she was rich, everyone there was considered the same as her. She was having breakfast at the table with her father who was reading a newspaper. He was still pretty much old school.
Once she was done with her breakfast she stood up and went over to her dad. She kissed him on the cheek and said her goodbyes.

Outside her driver was waiting for her to get into the car. Her father promised that it'd just be today that the driver would have to take her. On other days she would be able to drive herself. He held open the door and she smiled. Getting into the front seat. She never really liked to sit at the back because she didn't want to look like she was the fucking president or something. She brings out her phone and takes a picture to send to her mother. A first day of school picture. Back in Boston it should've been 7pm so her mom would eventually see it.

Once they arrived at the school which wasn't too far from her home, she thanked the driver and came out. She held her bag on her shoulders and walked into the huge school building. Gosh even the halls smelled expensive. She went straight to the principal's office. She knew where that was because a few days ago she came visiting the school. She went there and knocked on the door. When she heard the voice of principal Bang she went in.

"Ah Ji-a I see you came early." He smiled.

"Yes I did. Good morning" she said closing the door behind her

"Please have a seat. While I prepare your schedule" he gestured to the seat in front of him.

She sat down nervously and fiddled with her fingers as Mr. Bang printed out the schedule. Once the printout was done he was about handing her the paper when someone barged into the room.

"For god's sake Mr. Kim you should knock." Mr. Bang stood up angrily.

She looked behind her to meet a tall fellow with dyed platinum blonde hair and stupid smirk on his face.

"I got into a fight with Jungkook. Ms.Nam told me to come here since I started it whilst she handled Jungkook" he said casually like getting into a fight was a normal everyday thing.

"Sit down over there. When I'm done with Ms. Lee I'll attend to you." He scoffs sitting back down.

After he sits on the bench next to the door Mr. Bang continues.

"I apologize for Kai's interruption. As I was saying, this is your schedule. You have a lot of Maths classes as per your request and your father requested for an equal amount of business classes. You have volleyball practice three times a week." He points out.

"Okay. Thank you." She thanks him.

"So you can head for your first class which is English with Mr. Lim who is also your class teacher. And your locker number is also written on the paper." He explains.

"Before I leave, I wanted to ask for a new set of uniforms. These ones are just a size smaller" she politely says.

"Sure thing we can arrange for that. By the weekend you should have new ones" he reassures.

She nods and thanks him one last time before exiting the room.
The halls were kind of empty except for a few students taking things from their lockers. She headed straight for the English classroom and she slowly knocks on the door.

After hearing the enter pronounced by Mr. Lim she opens the door. When she enters the classroom and she immediately feels anxious as everyone looks at her.

"Ah we've been expecting you Ms. Lee." The teacher smiles at her.

Mr. Lim was a rather short male with a head full of gray hair and round glasses. He looked like your average English teacher with a checkered t-shirt and brown khakis.

"Good morning Mr. Lim" She greeted him nervously trying to ignore the stares of everyone

"Good morning. How about you introduce yourself to the class" he gestures at everyone.

"My name is Lee Ji-a I'm 17 and I moved here from the US with my father. I hope to get to know you all better" she says.

She had practiced those two sentences for hours on end in her bedroom last night, this morning before breakfast and even on the walk to the classroom.

"Well we also hope to get to know you too" he smiled at her "There are three empty seats back there. Just pick one and follow on with the class. And if you have any question do not be shy to ask"

She moves to the seat in the middle row between a boy with white dyed hair and a girl with red hair.

English class went on normally as the teacher spoke about Shakespeare and his works including the program for this semester. Due to the impromptu divorce of her parents she was forced to leave school during her last semester. As for Jia everyone seemed to look at her the entire time she was there. It was awkward for her and she didn't know what to do when they stared at her so intently.

Jungkook's POV

The class is boring everything at this point is. The teacher starts saying stuff that I already know and I just zone out. I don't have to listen since I know everything. I study ahead of time and I don't really care. I brought out my sketch book and begin to doodle in it.

I immediately hear the classroom door open and it's like everything around me goes silent as I stare. She doesn't look too tall but she has nice long caramel colored legs with full brown curls on her head. She had these mesmerizing eyes and face that made me want to look at her till my eyes popped out. Her uniform fitted her in the right places and that short skirt did things to me I couldn't explain. Every single guy here was ogling her and it was clear the girls got jealous.

As she began to present herself, I wanted to listen to her voice forever. Gosh what the hell is wrong with me. I tried my best to look away but I couldn't. Her voice was the only thing I could hear. Once she finished speaking she walked towards the back and sat down right in front of me and next to Hobi and Hwasa.

I could get a waft of her perfume and she smelled amazing indeed.
During the whole class I couldn't stop thinking about her. She looked so beautiful, like the kind of beauty that never faded.

The bell rang and a feeling of sadness and unease settled in me. I didn't know what next class she had. She stood up and began packing her things. I contemplated introducing myself and being her friend before all the bad rumors of me got to her.

As I stood up Hwasa got there first. I just hissed and passed them both and left the class.

Jia's POV

"Hey. I love your hair." I hear the voice of a gurl as I was arranging my stuff.

"Thank you." I smile back.

"I'm Hye-Jin but you can call me Hwasa" she introduces herself to me.

Hwasa and I had the same height but her stance and way of dressing herself made me feel small. She stood with lots of confidence and I envied her.

"Nice to meet you Hwasa." I smile. Once I'm done packing my things, Hwasa and I start walking out of the classroom.

"So what class do you have now?" She asks eagerly

"Chemistry" I reply.

"I have PE but we can meet at lunchtime. I wanna get to know you better" she smiles. I wave at her as we go in opposite directions.
