chapter 6 - it's beautiful

𝐘/𝐍

I can feel the heat rise to my cheeks. Why didn't he tell me?! I was clearly bothering him.

"This is the cutest picture I've ever taken," declares Evelyn. 

I sigh. "I guess so. "

It was 2 a.m. 

Me and Evelyn walked toward the school from the bus stop. It wasn't too long of a walk, only about 15 minutes, and my legs could use some exercise after travelling for the last few hours. The walk was refreshing. The smell in the air made me happy. 

It was fairly quiet the whole time, excluding Evelyn chattering. We were meant to walk in a group with the rest of the girls going to the school, but since we stayed behind to talk about London boy, we were left behind. 

Eventually we reached a clearing in the trees and there was a large gate, which was ajar due to the groups that had just went in before us. Evelyn and I look up at the school. 

It's remarkable. 

It's beautiful. 

The tall, dark brown building stands in the closure of trees and flowers. There's even a marvelous water fountain in the middle, displaying both a lion and a unicorn, as elegant as ever, with water coming out of their mouths. There were splendid flowers of all colors around the school, and even cute little bird feeders for the birds that must live on the trees.

Evelyn and I marvel at the sight for what must be ages, but i don't think any amount of time in the world would have been enough to take it all in. 

The groups start walking in, and we quickly find the one we were meant to be in. They lead us to a grand room, called the Dining Hall, which they had decked out with some welcoming decorations, and they had made a make-shift stage right at the front. 

On the stage, there was a little woman. The principal, I suppose. She makes an announcement, even though the people that decided to come as early as us are few;

"Welcome, students of Blue Reign Academy. I am your principal, Mrs. Reed. We hope this will be a fantastic school year for all of our newcomers. 

This school year, we've decided to expand our club selections, and we have added many new clubs, such as photography, and much more. You will all receive your schedules today, so that you have time to get the hang of your surroundings, and classes will start on September 8th, at 8:30 a.m. 

If you have any further questions, you can come see me at my office, which is located by the entrance doors. In my office, you will also find your VP, Mr Li, whom you may also talk to about any questions you have. We're ready to have some fun this year, so lets begin, Blue Reign!" 

There are few cheers compared to people, but the rest seem too mesmerized to speak, Evelyn and I among them. The room is huge, surely used to house the hundreds of students that have their meal times here. There are brilliant chandeliers, and wonderful paintings all over the walls that depict the UK's national animals ; the lion and the unicorn. It's just so brilliant.

Then Mrs. Reed makes one last announcement ; "Everyone, line up by last name to get your schedules!" She then says all the letters of the alphabet, and assigns a different row to each of them. 

Once we get our schedules, The girls and boys are separated and shown to their dorms. Me and Evelyn are together, of course, due to us arranging to have our rooms together. 

As soon as we get in, we call dibs on our beds. I call the top bunk, leaving Evelyn with the bottom. 

But we both end up sprawled out on Evelyn's bed, going over our schedules to see what classes we have together. 

Unfortunately, we have different homeroom teachers. I have Mrs. Armani, and Evelyn has Mr. Solace. 

But we did manage to get 2 classes together : art and maths. Art being my favorite, and maths being Evelyn's favorite. Oh well, good enough. 

After a long time of discussing classes, and possible classes i could have with London boy/Louis, Ev and I fall into a fast sleep on her bed. 

This year is going to be the best.
