Jake and I arrive at school. I'm so not looking forward to walking through those doors, it's the same as walking through the pits of hell. "Do we really have to go? I'd rather-" I say and before I could even finish my sentence, Jake responds with "Yes Y/n, we do. Your attendance was so bad last term. You're lucky we get a fresh start every year, plus it's your first day. Just give it a shot, for fucks sake." I groan and nod my head as we get out of the car. As we walk to the doors someone unfamiliar bumps into me. My phone and I drop to the ground but not too hard. "OH, I'm SO sorry! I didn't see where I was going. That was my fault, do you need any help up? Here" a slightly high pitch tone apologises. "No no, I'm okay! I didn't see where I was going either so it's not just your fault, don't worry about it!" I say while I get up. I laugh it off and grab my phone.

"Again, I am so sorry!"
"It's okay! It's okay! I don't think I've seen you around before, are you new?"
"Yeah, this is my first day here. It's so big!"
"Ohh okay and yeah, it is. Isn't it?"
"Yeah, the names Miguel. Miguel Diaz."
"Nice name. I'm Y/n. Y/n Smith! Do you need help? I could show you around? Help you with your locker? Anything."
"Yeah actually, that would be nice. Thank you!"
"No problem!"

Miguel and I smile for a second but that instantly fades when I hear Jake cough.
"You do realise I'm right here and have been for the past few minutes, right?" Jake says while directly looking at me in the eyes. "What? I can't have a conversation with another person now?" I question him, lowering my eyebrows with slight anger. "I-I can go if you'd like? I don't mind figuring stuff out on my own." Miguel stutters and offers to wonder this crowed school on his own. "Yeah, no. You're not doing that on your own. I'm coming with you. I don't need my boyfriends permission to talk to whoever I want. Let's go" I say while ignoring & walking past Jake. I grab Miguel's wrist and start walking. Jake scoffs and shouts "GUESS I'LL WALK TO CLASS BY MYSELF THEN!"
"DO WHAT YOU WANT, LIKE I CARE?!" I respond.

Me and Miguel arrive at the office and look at his schedule. "Looks like we have the same classes, cool." I smile at Miguel. "Oh thank god, I was so worried I'd know nobody in my classes" he sighs in relief as the worry leaves his body. We giggle and head to class. We rock up to class five minutes late. The teacher was going to give us detention but I explained that Miguel was new and lost so she let us off with a warning. We sit down at the back so we avoid contact with everyone else.

"Oh shit." Miguel mutters to himself.
"What's up?"
"You see that guy over there to the right?"
"Yeah? Why?"
"Well the day I moved in to my apartment i went to the shop to buy my grandma some pepto-"
"ew, TMI!"
"Sorry, but anyway. That guy and his friends were trying to buy beer and I accidentally exposed him and his friends. They caught me outside the shop and found out I bought pepto. They decided it would be funny to pour it over my head and call me 'rhoea.' So now they hate me and will take any opportunity to ruin my life."
"Oh. I'm sorry dude. You didn't deserve that but you've got to admit that rhoea is a funny name."
"I guess.."
I tap his shoulder and say "Hey, watch this." I rip and roll up a piece of paper in a ball, unscrew my pen and plop the paper in it.
I spit the ball at the guy and it hits the back of his neck. "WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK?! WHO DID THAT?!" He stands up and yells.
"Kyler sit down. NOW." The teacher commands him to sit down and behave.
Miguel and I giggle silently.

A few hours past and it was finally lunch time. We had time so I quickly showed Miguel around a little more then walk to the cafeteria to grab some lunch! We arrive at the doors of the cafeteria as Miguel grabs my arm, I pause.
"Is this it? It's so big!" He questions.
"Uh yep! Here we are."
