The New Transfer Student

🍻Lauren🍻

*Never knew a secretary could make me so sleepy* I thought, as the secretary kept on asking me questions.

"Lauren, Lauren Jauregui." I say when she asked me my name.
"Okay, how old are you and your grade?"
"I am 18 and I'm a Junior"
"Okay then.... Let me print out your schedule so you know your classes."

I nod as she said that. I sighed knowing this is how I will spend my last 2 years in school.
Never would've thought I would move to another school.
I miss all my friends, I miss Ally, Lucy, Vero, everyone I know...

I run my hand through my hair to try to calm myself from freaking out in front of the office people.
I've never like that I had anxiety, specifically, SOCIAL anxiety. It makes me feel small around others and I hate that since I like being myself and being comfortable.

As I try to calm myself down, I look around to see any type of distraction until I see this short looking brunette who catches my stare and looks away immediately.
I could see that she's very petite and seems to be shy like me.

As she was leaving, I look down on her backside and God damn.
*She got a big ass* I thought.

When she left through the gate, I turn back to see the secretary coming back with my schedule.

"Here you go, there are some uniforms in the back over there that I'm sure come in your size." She said, while pointing to a corner in another room.

*you gotta be kidding me, uniforms?!* I think while looking to through to uniforms she's showing me.
*This just made the whole 2 years here more terrible.*

I was guided to the bathroom they had in the office and I quickly got into my uniform, because they told me the morning bell rang in 2 minutes.
I finally got the polo shirt on and it didn't look that bad but It wasn't the best thing for me to wear. I give my mom the shirt I was originally wearing and said my goodbyes as the secretary escorted me out of the office.

I fidget with my hands as I was looking among the other students walking to their class.
I then see the girl I saw earlier, talking to a girl whilst walking. She looked so short compared to her friend.
I chuckle at the difference.

I got to my first (and second) class a few minutes late since the secretary talked to a teacher on the way. I got a little sweaty on my hands when we stood outside of my class so I shoved my hands in my black jean pockets.

While the secretary is giving me instructions on what to say to the teacher once I go in, I give myself a pep talk on needing to be confident.

*I know I won't always be confident in class but right now, I need to be or else they'll think you're a weird loner.*
I know I'm already weird for saying that but I don't want people to know I'm weird. Okay, this might sound ridiculous but I have the tendency to be popular, like, wherever I go.
Especially in schools.

Even though I was giving myself a pep talk, I was paying attention to some parts she was saying about the teacher. She finally ends and I'm about 10 minutes late now.

She opens the door to my new class for the next 5 months while I'm behind her, encouraging to myself to be confident.

"Hello, sorry to interrupt, but you have a new out of state student. We're very sorry that we're late since I needed to get her things ready"

I look around to see all the kids heads turn towards me in awe and curiosity, some with confusion.
I look to see a group of girls staring at me in adoration and that alone gives me all the confidence I need. I give a little wave towards them while I smiled and some blushed when I did.

"Oh it's okay, you're not that late. We'll make her feel introduced so don't worry" Ms Lovato said getting up from her chair.

"Alrighty then, I'll be going now, bye bye" the secretary says as she's waving bye to everyone.
I slowly look over to everyone and my nerves start to get the best of me, so I run my hand over my hair, flipping it to the other side.

"Hello, what's your name? What state have you come from?" Ms Lovato asks smiling

"Oh, my name's Lauren Jauregui and I come from Ohio."
Everyone stares in wonder and curiously when they heard that. It makes sense since I come from far away, states away.

"Oh that's soo far way, how is it like over there?"

"It's very hot and-"
I was interrupted by a girl in the back yelling, "Like you??"
I laugh at her flirt and getting enough confidence, i flirt back by saying, "I should be saying that to you instead" ngl, she was pretty.

The whole class goes "ooooo" and I just stand there chuckling at her blushing and I continue on what I was saying.
"Like I said before, It's really hot that if you go outside, you'll look like a rich white moms spray tan. Really fucking Brown." I joke with a small laugh at the end.

The whole class erupted in laughs. I smirk knowing I've won them over.

Ms Lovato looked Pikachu shocked at everything I just said including the flirting I did.

"Well moving on from that, i just got one more question if that's okay with you, Lauren. Just to get to know you more."
"Yeah, that's okay" I give a reassuring smile.

"What do you like to do in your free time?"

"Well... I think about it for a moment and then, "I like going to the skate park or an arcade. I also like drawing and singing when I'm bored."

"Oh that's really interesting to hear. I'm glad that we were able to get to know you, now why don't you take a seat wherever you want. Everyone's seating is different every day so don't worry."

I nod and thanked her very subtley. Sweet!* I thought. That'll for sure land me in a popular group.
I look for an available chair until I see the girl I saw earlier and her friend, looking at their phones and talking quietly.

*Oh cool, she's in this class, maybe she can give me some directions to my other classes* I thought when walking towards their direction.

I was about to sit next to her until this girl takes my hand and forces me to sit down on the chair next to her.
"Hey, i was the girl who interupted you" she giggled saying
"Oh, Hi then. I wasn't wrong, you look pretty" as I was saying that I look behind her to see some jocks in their varsity jackets talking to some girls.
Including one going to approach her right now.

"Yo, Ashley" the jock says
"Oh hey Brad" the girl whose name is Ashley says.
"How about you befriend Lauren over here so we can have a new member to our team." Brad says

"Oh I would've, except you interrupted me." Ashley said, giving an annoying look
"Oh shit, my bad Ash, I thought you were gonna get into her pants or sum like dat"
Ashley gave a face palm and then looked over to me.

"Before I was RUDELY interrupted, I was gonna ask you if you can join our group."

Oh, uhm, what's your group about or what is it?"

"We're kinda like the popular group of the whole school. We make students be popular if they're in a sport or if they're good looking, like you."
She says while looking me up and down.

"Oh then yeah, I wouldn't mind being in your group, thanks for the info. I also play a sport too if that's even better."

"Oh really? What do you play?"
"Softball"
"Woah, I'm guessing you work out then"
"Yeah I do, not alot but I do" I say not noticing my anxiety went away.

After talking for another 40 minutes, the bell rang, signaling for 3rd period. I ask her if she knew any classes and thankfully she did. Mostly because she was in half of them. Ashley is cool, I can consider her a friend today. Hope all days are like this, everyone seems interesting enough.

I guess I won't hate this school after all.
