Just another ride

Boys and new schools

I stand in front of my mirror for another minute taking in my reflection. I guess I'm not totally ugly I have long straight sometimes curly hair it depends on the climate that I am in. I have blue eyes and a splash of freckles across my face I'm pretty tan since I have lived in Florida my whole life. Until now, I live in California now in a town called Rowens.I'm not exactly fat or skinny either I'm in the middle somewhere.
I look down at my phone as I walk away from my mirror. 6:45. School starts at 7:30, but I still have to get my schedule and my locker number also it takes about 20 minutes to get to the school and with my brother driving it will take longer. This is mostly because he Charises his car that he got three years ago for his 16th birthday.
"Octavia, hurry up!" My brother Conrad yells up the stairs to me.
" okay okay don't get your underwear in a bunch you baboon!" I shout back smiling as I jog down the wooden stairs.
" Bye honey !" My mom says to me as I pick up my backpack and grab my lunch from her
" yeah bye mom. Love you." I say back to her as I get into Conrads car. I look out the window and put in my earphones in. It takes about 20 to 25 minutes to get to the school. As the car slides to a stop in front of my new school. I sigh and open the car door and slowly get out .
" Bye O. See you later, ok?" Conrad says to me. I don't reply though. I just keep on walking looking for the office so I can get my schedule and locker number and combination. My day hasn't even started and I'm already dreading it. I hate being the new kid I decide as I quickly find the office. It's really mostly because I'm getting stared at from all the people who I walk past.
" um hello do you think I could have my locker and schedule please? I ask nicely to a friendly gray haired slightly plump woman at the desk. She wears a pair of gray glasses on the top of her head I see as I study her. She looks up at me and smiles.
"Of course! What's your name darling?" She says in an Australian accent.
" My name is Octavia Gilmore." I say back to her. I look around the office a little as she gets my things. The office is blue and white a bit dreary to me I guess. My old schools office was yellow and green not much better than this though.
" here you go darling have a nice day!" She says a little to cheerful for my taste honestly nobody can be that cheerful in a place like this it's just stinks of teenagers and drama. As I walk towards were my locker should be !but than I get nocked straight on my behind. I don't think it was on purpose because the boy who did it was fooling around with his friend, but I'm to agitated to be nice to him.
"God watch it!" I tell him as I climb back on my feet.
" hey, look I'm sorry it was a total accident." The boy says as I study him for a minute taking in his dark brown hair and brown eyes and his athletic body.
" hmm whatever. It's fine ." I say walking towards my locker. I hear him jog up to me as I click my locker open and start putting all my books in i.
" Hey I'm truly sorry about before." He says to me sincerely.
" look it's okay I know you didn't mean too so quit saying sorry to me." I say quite perplexed that he even cares or is still thinking about. He looks at me for second taking me in.
" Well my name is Shawn Durnan and well I would like to um maybe show you you around town and maybe get a bite to eat or something." He says nervously running his fingers through his hair. I smile and take out my phone and ask him for his phone number as he gives it to me I see him grinning really big so big in fact I think it might Behring his not that I would since I've never grinned that wide in my whole entire life. Smile to my self as I walk to my history class.

Me: is class always this boring? 😫

Mrs. Hickely my history teacher is a monotone talking robot and nobody can stay awake during her class and the only reason I know this already is because I'm fighting staying awake during her class and well ten other kids have there heads on there desks being a still as death its self. The only reason why I'm awake is because I'm Determined to keep my perfect GPA that I have worked so hard to get and also the other reason why I know they are asleep is because they get up slowly from there desks once the bell rings and well that's not the only class that is like that.

SHAWN DURNAN 😇👑: I would lie to you and tell you that class is great most of the time ,but I don't want to lie to a pretty girl that I'm trying to make my new best friend so I sadly have to tell you that your day won't get better because all the teachers actually care about is getting paid and well they all talk in monotone voices and if you haven't already noticed everybody sleeps during class unless you to were sleeping during these painfully boring classes as well. 😂😉

Me: wow thank you for the exquisite speech of yours!!!!! 😂

SHAWN DURNAN 😇👑: why is was my pleasure being in your service,but I have baseball practice also if you were interested in track I can get you a tryout tomorrow after school if you would like.

Me: OMG thank you I would so totally love that and have tons of fun a practice I have a date with my homework✏️📓📚📖

After I get my books from my locker I stand on the curb in front of the school as my brother rolls to a stop .
" Hey O how was you first day of school?" Conrad asks me smiling as he pulls out of the school gates and heads toward our house.
"Well I met a guy that I think will be a really great friend,but all my teachers were dreadfully boring and all talked in monotone voices that put all the kids to sleep I'm not even kidding there were like ten kids asleep in every single one of my classes!" I says as I realize just how much my new school sucked to no end.
" Well at least you got a friend and it's only your first day of school so I think that's a plus!" He says brightly smiling happily as we pull into our drive way. I love my brother he always sees everything on the upside not the downside it sometimes gets annoying ,but for the most part it's great to have someone who's always positive in my life it keeps my life less negative. Once I get inside I run up the stairs toward my room ,but I turn around at the top of them and call down to my brother.
" thank you for being so positive all the time. Goodnight. " I say to my brother as I turn back around and walk slowly to my room liking the way the hard wood floor feels under my bear feet as I slowly walk to my bedroom. When I reach my room I flick on my lamp get ready for bed and once I'm done I do my homework and as I put away my books my mom pokes her head in my room
" Hey honey lights out you have school tomorrow. Goodnight. " she says
" okay goodnight" I say as she closes my door . I roll on my side and click my lamp off and drift off into a dreamless sleep.
