MIKA

First Impressions

--Nick's POV--

Before I know it another few months pass and it is the first day of school. Once again, Mika is away. Dad and Mika had me homeschooled last year, but they quickly realized that I couldn't focus at home, so here I am.

Dad had just dropped me off. I'm standing in front of the three-story school nervously. I can not only feel, but can see my hands shaking.

Before I can take a step closer to the school someone runs right into me. Our heads smash together. He falls back and onto the ground.

"Shit!" He says as he grips his head and stands up.

"Yup," I reply as I grab mine.

"I'm so so sorry," he apologizes.

"No problem. A headache might distract me from my nerves," I tell him.

"You're new?"

"Yea. My names Nick...Penniman."

His eyes widen, "as in Mika? The Mika?!"

Oh great. I nod and start to walk towards the school again.

"Wait!" He says as he runs up to me and stops me. "My name is Rian."

Rian was about the same height as me, 5 foot 10-ish. His skin was tanned and his hair was the same dark brown shade as his eyes. He was dressed in an unbuttoned blue flannel with a black tee underneath with black skinny jeans. I could practically make out his junk.

Great. Now I'm staring. Not at him, but...yea. Great first impression Nick!

I sigh to myself.

"What's wrong?" Rian asked me with a chuckle.

"Wh-what?" I stuttered. I then face-palmed myself. Rian just laughed at me.

"Your pretty awkward Nick, but I like you," he said as he pulled me toward the school.

"I still have to get my schedule." I tell Rian as I start to head to the office.

Rian nods and follows me toward the office. Before he can enter with me he's stopped by three other guys. The first guy looks just like him, I'm assuming they're related? He's dressed in blue jeans and a white t-shirt.

The second is around 5 foot 9 with a purplish ball cap on top of his blonde hair. His eyes were a deep blue color. Nothing like I've ever seen before. He dressed similar to Rian, but his clothes weren't as tight as Rian's.

The third guy was the same height as the second. He looked just as nervous as I did...still do. I'm assuming he's the follower of the group. He has dark brown messy hair and is wearing a red t-shirt with dark skinny jeans.

"Guys this is Nick," Rian says as he points to me. "He's new here, so be nice to him. Nick this is Jude, Sydney, and Mac."

I give my awkward smile and wave before darting into the office.
