Back To School

“mom! I’m ready to leave!” I said as I walked down the stairs. Yes. Today was the first day of 8th grade. Was I excited? Not even a bit. Nervous? Maybe a little.
“Yes Ellie! Wait up for your brother! He’s almost ready!” Agh brilliant I thought. Now I’ll be late for my first day because of my brother.
“hey Ellie! You ready to go?” asked my brother as he jumped down the stairs. “ I’ve been ready for so long. If I’m late because of you Leo-“
“ Liz! Stop scaring your brother and be a good sister to him even at school.” Shouted my dad from the living room. “agh ok dad!” I replied angrily. “wait till we reach school you prat” I whispered to my brother as he struck his tounge out at me. “can we please leave now? I’m already nervous as it is, all this holding up Is getting on my nerves now” I said as my mom blew a kiss on my forehead. (Which I obviously wiped away almost immediately) “jeez Lizzie, calm down and Don’t be so rude to anyone at school” she said after kissing my brother on the forehead too.
“yeah yeah sure, whatever” I said without paying attention. “come on kids! Off to school now!” my dad shouted excitedly in his loud, booming voice as he got up from the chair and headed towards the door. I was nervous the whole ride to school, and didn’t talk much, but that was normal for my dad and brother as I Usually don’t talk at all. As I reached the gates, I said goodbye to my dad and entered the school building with my brother. At once he punched me slightly on the shoulder and ran away. I’ll get him back, I thought. My first lesson was math. Uhhh what a way to start my day. I was headed to the math classroom just as I collided into someone. I couldn’t see who it was, but all I knew was his large hands grasping my shoulders to stop my tumbling over backwards. I looked up to see who it was, and I couldn’t believe what I saw.
