"Y/n...?" you hear your name "Y/N!" you hear your name again.. "Y/N!!" and again. Opening your eyes you see Dustin shaking you. "Come on school starts in 40 minutes and we still have to bike there." he walks out of the room. "What..." you mumble looking at your clock seeings it's 6:00 am. "When did i fall asleep?" you think to yourself as you get up going to your box of clothing you placed on your bed. You grab (f/c) sweater and jeans heading over to the mirror holding the clothes up to your body. "This should do!" you think to yourself after you change and add some accessories to your outfit you go to the kitchen "Hey Dusty! What's for breakfast?" you ask while grabbing your shoes and putting them on. "No shoes on the chairs y/n!" you hear aunt Claudia yell from the other room. "Sorry aunt Claudia!" you yell back as you finish tying your laces. "Y/n! come on!" You hear Dustin yell from the garage. Getting up you run to the garage to get your bike "Wait, I forgot my walk-man hold on!" you run back to your new room "what the fuck..?" you mutter to yourself. Outside it looks like it has begun to snow... As you walk over to the window you see snow-like substance falling from the sky. You open up the window and look up, "How can it be snowing?" you think to yourself "It's only October..." You shrug it off and shut your window it wasn't unusual for it to snow in colorado year round so this is probably fine. You grab your walk-man and run back out to the garage. "What took you so long?" Dustin asks, looking annoyed "Sorry i couldn't find my walk-ma-" you get cut off "It's fine lets just go i still have to meet Mike, Lucas, and Will at school" Dustin shouts out to you before he vanishes behind the hill of pavement. Sighing you get onto your bike and follow him to school. Now out of breath and tired you park your bike and lock it up. A new school, a new life, a new year. Walking through the parking lot you jump out of the way as a camaro zooms past you. "Hey watch where you're going!" you yell out to the car as you continue to walk up to the school. "Hello?" you ask walking into the office. "Hello? Who might you be?" a man dressed in a blue suit and glasses stands before you. "Oh i'm y/n l/n, i just transferred here i'm trying to get a locker" you smile at him. "Hello miss.l/n im Russell Coleman call me Mr.Coleman please" he says while reaching out to shake your hand. "Hi Mr.Coleman" you shake his hand "your aunt called ahead of time and notified us. You will be sharing a locker with Nancy Wheeler" he hands you a slip of paper with the locker combination on it. "Thank you Mr.Coleman" you walk out of the office and head towards your new locker. Walking down the hall you felt like all eyes were on you, even though you know no one cares. You make it to your locker you place your backpack down at your feet fumbling with the lock. After what felt like 100 attempts you still can't get it to open. You bang your fist against the locker letting out a frustrated sigh. Looking up and see a a tall blonde walking past you desperately needing the help you call out "Excuse me?" just loud enough for him to hear you.

He turns around looking you dead in the eye like you messed up by even talking. "Do you think you can help me with my locker...?" you smile at him before he scoffs and starts walking off again. "HEY!" you yell out to him, he turns around once more and stares into your e/c eyes. It's almost like he was looking into your soul. "A-are you the guy who drives that camaro?" A wild guess but if he is rude enough to refuse helping you he is rude enough to almost run anyone over. He lets out a dry laugh "yeah why?" you hesitate but then speak "Well, you should watch where you're going next time" you almost squeak clenching your fists so tight it feels like your fingers are going to break. "And why should I do that?" he stares you down "because-" you you get cut off. "Because why?" he is now walking up to you. "Because you almost ran me over!" you shout stepping back from him lucky for you no one was in the hallway otherwise this would have been way more embarrassing. "Oh...?" he says tilting his head "Yea so watch it or-" your brain short circuits trying to think of anything to say "or what princess?" he smirk as you give him a disgusted look. Your thoughts got broken when someone walks up behind you. Before you could speak to him again you turn around to address the person. "Hey i'm so sorry i was just-" she cuts you off "No need your alright" she opens the locker. "I'm y/n and..." you tell her as you turn around to address the blonde. "Was he bothering you?" The brunette asks "Not really..." you lied he got on every nerve you had. "Just ignore him anyways i'm Nancy i'm guessing you're my locker partner?" You nod and thank her and while putting your backpack in the locker. "I need to head to math now sorry" Nancy says leaving you alone in the semi abandoned hallway. You sigh as you take your books out for english. "Now where is 205...?" you think to yourself walking up to someone "Excuse me do you know where 205 is..?" she points to the left, she was obviously bothered by something else. "Thanks!" you say walking to class. When you walk in you see all the seats are full, everyone already had their friend groups. Picking a seat in the back you grab your walk-man out of your book bag and turn it on. "Mr.Hargrove? what's your reason for being late this time?" the teacher crosses her arms. "I had to talk-" he gets cut off by the teacher "I don't wanna hear it! Just go sit somewhere" the only seat that wasn't taken was the seat to your left.
