I wake up to a ray of sunlight directly hitting me in the face. I'm hesitant to look at my phone, just hoping that I woke up at least 10 minutes before my alarm, so I can sleep just a little bit more. When I finally get the courage to look at my phone, I'm disappointed to see that I woke up 10 minutes after my alarm.
"Wow, what an amazing way to start the first day of the senior year" I sarcastically mumble to myself.
When I got done quickly getting dressed I go downstairs to see that my mom had made me and my little siblings a big breakfast. I sat down right next to my little brother and sister who were scarfing down pancakes and bacon.
"You should hurry up and eat, so you can get to school early and get prepared." Mom said with a smile on her face. I did as she said and ate some food quickly and hurried to school.

...

I got to the school I took a deep breath in, trying to relax, I don't know why I'm so nervous. Moving to new houses all the time and going to new schools is nothing new for me since my mom always has to move around.
I go to the first period of the day, which was homeroom and I try to scope out all of my new classmates, particularly looking for the ones I should avoid. I look towards the kids who I can already tell that they are the "popular" kids. I see a girl twirling her long wavy brunette hair who was looking at this boy whose name that I picked up on, Luke.
He was trying to flirt with her, failing to in the process.
"Kat, would you like to maybe go to the party on Saturday and hang out with us?"
as he points to his two friends who were chatting behind them. Kat replies cheerfully
"Oh sure, that would be fun."
I roll my eyes at how awkward they were. I turn my eyes to a different person, whom I have yet to learn their name. They were drawing one of my favorite characters from a game that I liked. "Oh my God, he knows that game? I've never heard of anyone else that knows it." I think to myself. I almost make an effort to get up and go talk to him but thought that it would probably be weird if I talk to him all of the sudden.
Before I knew it, time had already raced by and the bell for the second period had rung. I grabbed my stuff as I try to get up and go to my second-period class. As I'm about to reach the door, Luke, the dude from earlier bumps right into me, which inadvertently makes me drop all the stuff that was in my hands. "Oh crap, I'm sorry," I say even though he was the one that bumped into me. He just glares at me, not even an " oh I'm sorry " or " it's okay ". " what a jerk " I think to myself as I try to rush to pick up my things and head to class.

...

I get to my second period, which just so happens to be my favorite subject, science. As soon as I'm about to find a random seat to sit in, the teacher, Mr. Horton says "everyone checks the paper at the front of my desk and see who your partner is for the project that we are going to be working on and that person will be who you seat next to for the rest of the year."
I go up to his desk to go check the paper and go to scan my name to see who I was partnered with. When I see who I was partnered with, my jaw drops a little, I readjust my glasses to see if I'm reading the name correctly. Unfortunately, my eyes read the name correctly. I was partnered with Luke.
When I go to my assigned desk, I look at the others looking at the paper, then find their seat, then I see Luke enter the classroom. My heart sinks to my stomach as I see him walk over the piece of paper on the desk. He looks disappointed to not be next to one of his friends, but not too upset. The teacher helps him out by pointing where he needed to be, pointing directly at me. His face went from mild to upset, I guess he didn't recognize my name on the paper, I mean obviously, this is my first time going to this school.
When he gets over to the section where we sit, as he tries to get to his seat he bumps into my seat, I can't tell if it was accidental or not, so I don't say anything.
As soon as everyone sat down the teacher went on a rant about what we were supposed to do for the project. I get bored and look around the classroom noticing that most of the girls and even some of the guys were staring at Luke. I can already tell he's the boy everyone has a crush on. Though due to the whole ordeal earlier, I don't see the appeal, he seems kinda like an asshole to me. Physically I didn't get the appeal either.
He readjusts his messy dirty blonde hair. I've never really liked blondes. He also has blue eyes and I think blue eyes kind of looked weird. Though I do like his, they aren't bright blue, they are a deeper grayish-blue, they remind me of the ocean.
As I'm looking at him, he turns his head at the wrong moment and catches me directly staring at him. I've never turned my head so fast in my life and I think to myself " Oh shit shit shit, I got caught staring at him, oh my God why was I even looking at him in the first place?".
There's an awkward moment of Silence. " So...Are we gonna do the project or not? " he says with an attitude trying to break the silence. " O-oh yeah, sorry, let's get started " oh my God, I don't know why I'm stuttering, I thought I kicked that habit a long time ago.
I wonder if he did catch me staring at him, technically, I was lost in thought, I wasn't purposely staring at him. I wonder if he thinks I'm weird. This is just an amazing start to a new school year.

...

I try to get the work done, but little to no conversation goes on with him, as soon as to ask a question about the project. I feel a spitball hit the back of my head, I turn around and it turns out to be one of the two dickhead friends that Luke has. The one that did the spitball was named Jake, and he just continued to snicker as my face gets more and more of a frustrated look.
I'm about to pick the spitball up and throw it directly at his forehead. When jake gives me a death glare and I'm no coward so I give one back, then proceeded to throw the spitball at Jake's face. Luke gets up out of his seat about to hit me when the teacher says "DETENTION FOR ALL THREE OF YOU AFTER SCHOOL, GO TO THE HALLWAY RIGHT NOW!"
Well isn't this just great.




Hey guys, sorry if this sucks so far, this is more or less just Practice for bigger projects. So let me know if you have criticism you would like to give :)
Side note I'm trying to make the episodes at least 1000 words long
