Confusing // Ethan Dolan

Chapter two

6:45 am

Excitement was running through my veins... The last thing I am right now is nervous. I'll probably be the "new girl" for a few months, but who cares? At least I'm already familiar with a person.

I do my morning routine, and I was finally ready. It only involves waking up, changing into confortable clothes and having breakfast.

I wait for Noah to be ready for another fifteen minutes, I don't understand how can he take much time into preparing himself.

The ride from my house to school is between short and long. My eye caught a few teenagers close from my new home, new neighbors, perhaps future classmates.

My brother parks in the school's parking lot, which is rather huge. The school building is also, huge, and beautiful. Thankfully it has a lot of windows, I love it when a room is illuminated by the sunlight. I hope the school looks as nice inside as it does outside.

I go to the office to pick up my schedule and sign some papers.

As I was looking around for my first class I run into Cameron, she tells me where to go and where to find her in lunch time.

I finally found the class and sit in the second row. The professor made me introduce myself which was a really awkward moment but I got over it.

I made a new friend, Violet. She gave me a little tour of the school and told me everything I need to know. From gossip to tips.

It was finally lunch time.

"Hey Malena, here!" Cameron calls me and I sit next to her. She introduces me to her friends: Matt, Nathan, Mike, Bridget, and Sophie. And there was also Violet but I already know her.

We have all of our classes together and I hope we'll be good friends. She told me she has a crush on Matt. I like her. I like all of Cameron's friends, they're funny and nice.

All of them introduced to me, Nathan, Sophie and Mike have such interesting lives, they come from different parts of the world, just like me.

Matt, Bridget, Cameron and Violet were born here. They're all 16, soon-to-be 17 or already 17 years old. We kept talking until the bell rang: I have english class.

I'm making my way to my locker, I need to get my stuff, specially in my first day, I need to make a good first impression.

I wasn't looking where I was walking and I ran into a boy. A tall boy. Maybe he isn't that tall but he is taller than me. He has brown pierced eyes and brown hair. His eyebrows seem to have been created perfectly. He has the sexiest jawline I've ever saw, it could cut my finger in a half. His lips? Oh his full lips have a perfect pink colour. His teeth are so white. He looks like he has around eighteen years old.

I didn't expect boys at this school to be so attractive.

"Oh, I'm so sorry I-uhm," I say looking as nervous as hell.

"Shit, I'm sorry, I'm stupid," he says, flashing a smile. "Are you new?"

"Yes, I just arrived yesterday so this is my first day."

"Oh cool, I need to go now but I hope I run into you again," He smiles.

"I hope that too," I blush a little.

"Wait, what's your name?"

"Malena, what about you?"

"Grayson, I'll see you around Malena."

Did I just talk to a cute boy? Woah. I know for a fact that I'm going to like this school.

I'm now in english class, sitting next to Violet, and I can't stop thinking about Grayson.

Everything about him is beautiful. He told me he was hoping to run into me again, didn't he? Well I'm hoping that too.

"You're coming to Cameron's after school, right?" Violet sweetly whispers-asks.

"Yes," I smile to her. "So are you?"

She nods her head and we wait until the bell rings to continue our conversation.

We jump into Cameron's car, it's big, otherwise we couldn't go all of us together to her house, since we're six persons.

"I love your house, it's really beautiful," I compliment Cam's home as we enter.

"Thanks, my parents would love to hear that," she answers and smiles.

Here we are, at the living room of Cameron's house, talking and eating. It seems as if we emptied her fridge.

"Cam, where's the bathroom?" I ask her.

"Go upstairs, second door to your left."

"Thank you," I smile and go upstairs. I knock on the door and a manly voice says "occupied" so I just wait.

Finally the door opens.

"Malena?" I hear a very familiar voice says.
