New life h.s.

1 // new friends, new boys

*Emmas POV*

"Emma hurry up! You don't want to be late for your first day at your new school!" My dad yells from downstairs.

I quickly finish brushing my teeth and start my make-up. I'm not really a make-up girl so I just put on a little mascara. I go to my bedroom thats completely full of boxes and grab my black cross body bag.I ran downstairs and go to the kitchen my brother throws me an apple because we don't have enough time for breakfast, i make a quick sprint making sure that i get shotgun before my brother. We may be twins but technically I'm about 30 mins older and everyone knows that the oldest gets shotgun.

When me and Matt get in the car my dad immediately starts the engine and starts driving. I have never been really close with my dad, my parents got divorced when i was seven and after that my mom took custody and my dad only have time to visit during the holidays. We moved back in with my dad about 2 weeks ago, and it's been really hard on my entire family. We lost our mom to lung cancer and then had to immediately move our entire life to another continent.

By the time i snapped out of my own thoughts we were already at the school. When i first glanced at it i had to take a double-take, this place is massive.

"Okay guys I'm not going to be able to pick you guys up from school today because i have a meeting so you'll have to walk home or find a ride. Have fun today kids!" And with that my dad drove away well over the speed limit.

Right when my dad was out of sight matt starting walking in the opposite direction as me. thats typical of my brother, even at our old school were everyone knew we were related he never wanted to be seen with me. Usually he'll walk to his friends but we don't know anyone here so i have no clue where he is going.

I walk into the school suddenly getting very nervous, I'm not the best at making friends. Before i even have time to think about where i need to go i am swarmed with people, theres way too many kids in this school. All i want to do is find the main office and i fear that itself with take forever.

After about 10 minutes of aimlessly walking around i find it in the corridor of the second floor, who puts a main office here?

I walk in and the only person in the room is an extremely happy 50 year old woman.

"Um hi i'm Emma Simmons. Do you know where i might be able to get my schedule?" I asked with only one nervous voice crack.

"Of course honey let me just print it out for you, Emma Simmons you said, right?" She replied in a very high pitched voice.

I gave a slight nod back and sat on one of the waiting benches. Right when i sit down a blonde haired boy came in.

"Hi Mrs. Roberts! I lost my schedule in the mail, can you please print me a new one?" He asked in a thick irish accent.

"Oh of course Niall, could you please pick up this young lady's as well while you're at the printer?"

"Course"

He walked into another room and came out with two sheets of paper. He walked slowly over to me scanning both of the papers.

"Hello Emma Simmons, it seems we have a few classes together so you're in luck." He grinned at me.

"Hi, that's neat." Neat, what the heck who talks like this. I hate talking to boys they make me so nervous..

"Emma why don't i help you fin your locker, I'm going that direction anyways."

"Thanks that'd be great, i don't know how you find your way around this enormous school."

We left the office and started walking making so many turnings i couldn't keep count anymore. He asked me basic questions like where I'm from, and why i moved here. I didn't want to tell him about my mom it felt weird telling a stranger these things about me so i just told him my dads job required us to relocate.

He also told me a little about himself, he'd lived in England for about three years but before he lived in Ireland his whole life. He also mentioned that he's in a band for with four other boys in our grade.

I suddently realised how popular this guy was, i mean i had been walking down the halls with him for about five minutes and already about 10 people have said hey to him. I usually only talk to ten people the entire day.

"So do you liked London so far?" Niall asked.

"Well i don't rea-" I started but was interrupted by his cell phone ringing.

"One sec emma."

"Hello?"

"No way, when'd it start."

"You better not be lying man."

"Ill be there in a minute."

"Sorry i gotta go. My friend just told me that someone spray-painted the entire principles office. Your locker is just around the corner and then at the end of the hall. I'll see ya soon." He said quickly and the ran off.

I was kind of upset because Niall seemed really nice and he was cute which was a plus and his accent is a double plus. Im happy that he said, "Ill see ya soon." I hope that he meant it.

I turned around the corner that Niall pointed to but one second later I felt myself on the ground and a pain on my right wrist. I looked around me and saw all my textbooks and some more. A boy was standing above me frantically picking up papers and books.

"I'm so sorry, i wasn't looking where i was going." I quickly said while picking up my books.

"It's okay." he quickly mumbled.

Once i stood up i was able to get a good look at him, he was wearing a white collared shirt, a skinny black tie, and black skinny jeans. When i looked at his face i noticed that he had a scar on the top of his right eyebrow and black glasses. His hair had been styles into a new quiff that suited him very well.

"Hi, i'm Emma. Can you help me find my locker? I think it's around here somewhere." I asked because he seems quite nervous.

"Um i don' think you should talk to me unless you want to be bullied." he nervously stuttered as if he had never spoken to anyone before.

"Oh come on don't be silly."

With that i gave him my schedule and he quickly looked over it and then started walking. He didn't say anything so i guess i should just follow him. We passed about three classrooms in silence util he stopped.

"This is your locker and the one to the right to it is mine."

"Oh what a coincidence. What did you say your name was again?" I asked trying to keep the conversation going.

"I didn't, but its Marcel."

"Cool name. What class do you have first maybe we can walk together?" I waited but he didn't respond and when i looked over he was gone. Well there goes another potential friend.
