           And now,  the inevitable day has come. The sunshine I don't like seeing shines into my window, blasting at my eyes like it has something against me.

I cover them and get up to wash my face and brush my teeth in the bathroom.

The cool water splashes my face and my brain only gets more confused. I put on my basic makeup that weighs down my tired eyes, but it's okay.

I shiver in the morning breeze after fixing my hair and changing. My backpack droops on my shoulder. I open the door to the car I exchanged for a birthday, which I don't like all that much.

I wait for the car to heat up and try not to look at the person walking. There's not much people on this street. I look down at my phone and hear my door open. I look back up at some random getting in my car. I forgot to lock my doors.

"Um. Get out!" I try to raise my voice but it feels like it's gonna crack. I reach to my door handle.

It's a boy. He has dark-almost black hair and dark brown eyes with pale skin.

Not another boy.

"You don't have to stare like that," he says with a tiny chuckle.

"You're the one in my car! Get out!"

"Okay, Okay, calm down first, take deep breaths," he says with a smile.

"The fuck is funny?? Out!" I reach for my pocket and take out the blade I carry with me. I point it at him just to scare him.

"Woah, okay well first, are you Evangeline?" He puts his hand up like he's trying to block me.

I don't say anything. Just look at him confused.

"Your parents said you would give me a ride."

"How am I supposed to believe you?"

He takes out his phone and shows me a message from my mother's phone number. I close the pocket knife and put it back in my pocket.

"Sorry." I say.

"But you were dragging it on for too long! You could have said that or maybe just knocked on the window." I finish my sentence.

He sits silently looking out the window for most of the drive. I try to talk to him. Maybe I scared him? This is still weird.

"What's your name?"

"It's Kevin."

"You know how that was stupid right? What if I did stab you or something? Don't just go around doing that." I tell him.

"I didn't think someone called Evangeline would do anything to harm me." He says, exaggerating my name, still looking out the window. "It's Eva."

We get to the school and I walk to my first class. I sit in the only seat left that's not at the back.

Sitting next to me is another boy. I sit as still as I can, but my nerves are worse than ever.

A girls voice sounds next to me and I can see someone standing in front of the person next to me. I don't look up.

"Maaatt, I wanted to sit next to you,," the girl says pouting.

"Do you not have eyes? This is.." he turns his head to me.

"Eva." I smile at her. "Oh, I'm Emily. I like your necklace," she says back. "I like yours."
She smiles and walks away.

"So you just moved here didn't you?" The boy says. "Yeah." "Cool,"

I get home and put my backpack on the floor before I go back to my room.

I change and sit on my bed to think a little bit. I met another girl in last period. It's never been easy like this before, especially not for me.

My phone buzzes.

I look around. What the fuck is this??

Kevin smirks in the window facing mine. I really need curtains.

...._____...._____...._____...._____....___..
-You
Ur a weirdo

I turn around to face him and put up a finger. I go down to my living room instead.
