Alex POV

It took us a couple weeks to settle in our new home but once we did I thought everything would get better. I thought my worries and anxiety would disappear. I thought wrong. It didn't get much worse but it also didn't get much better. My dad took me to go get pizza at 'Pacific Pizza'. Mom took me to a few bible teachings with her group- it was nice. Everything was perfect. Until the first day of school came. Everything went downhill from there.

"Ready for your first day!?" My mom asked me as I came down the stairs.

"No."

"Bud, come on. At least give it a try? If you don't like it here we'll move back to New York."

"Really??"

As I was walking to school, what dad said kept replaying in my head. I hope today goes terribly! I want to go back to New York, I miss Nicole. She's going to be so happy when we go back! As I approached my new school for the next 4 years the pit in my stomach dropped even lower. If that's even possible. After standing outside the school for a while looking like an idiot I got the courage to go in there. This school was way different than any I've ever been to. And I've been to a lot. There were girls practicing gymnastics, boys playing football, teachers were encouraging this!

"What kinda school is this?" I said under my breath.

beep, beep, beep!

When the bell rang everyone emptied the hall. No more flips, no more tackling. Just me in the hall with 5 more minutes until I'm officially late..on my first day.

Beep, beep, beep!

Great. I'm officially late to my first class on the first day of school in a brand new town! Calm down, Alex. Don't cry, don't cry...too late. Okay, a hundred, ninety nine, ninety eight, ninety...ninety...come on.
