I always thought I was normal, I never knew how wrong I could be.


I awoke in a haze to my alarm clock blaring, beeping, screaming at me to wake up.
Luckily it wasn't my cat stepping on me to wake me up. "Serena!" My mothers voice called quietly from my door. "Mmmhhhhhhmm" I mumble into my pillow not wanting to be awoken from my slumber. "Serena, darling you have to wake up" my mother now entering my room said. I sadly was now awake entirely and wouldn't be able to go back to sleep even if I tried so there was no point, it was too late. I sit up and face my beloved mother. "Morning mom" I say in a tired tone as I hate being up this early. "Darling you have to get ready for school its your first day of senior year!" She exclaimed throwing her arms in the arm to give me a big bear hug. "MOM" I whine embarrassed at the affection."oh your fine, now come on get ready for school" she sighed. I watch her walk out of my room and down the hallway as I start to leave my oh so cozy bed. Walking from my bed to my dresser I trip on the book I had been reading last night, as I fall I try to catch myself which didn't help much as I landed on my wrist. That didn't end out too well. I hop up pretending like that never happened but it did so ill just deal with it. I get changed into a black and gray striped long sleeve shirt and a pair of midrise black bell bottom jeans, I put on my converse and grabbed my black backpack from the door and put it on my bed whilst I did my simple makeup routine of eyeliner and cherry colored lip tint. I grab my bag from off my bed and head down the hallway to the kitchen where I saw my mother making my father breakfast. "Mmmm that smells good momma" I say as I start passing her making my way to the fridge for a squeeze pack of apple sauce. "You can have some if you'd like but save some for your father, you know how cranky he gets when he doesn't get his food." She replies. "No thank you I'm okay with my apple sauce!" I smile at her. I go to the living room and see my father sitting in his lift chair asleep like always, my father is older and has Parkinson's disease. Both of my parent are actually older as I am adopted but my mothers health is much better then my fathers. I sign upset he couldn't stay awake long enough to say goodbye to me. I head out the door, the air is crisp and warm as I walk outside. I head to my beater of a car I had finally paid off. Driving to school was fine but I missed the atmosphere of taking the bus but it'll be okay. I finally pulled into the schools parking lot and backed in a spot. "Okay were gonna be fine this year, right Serena?" I ask myself like I'm crazy. I step out of the car the nerves making my stomach hurt to the point of wanting to turn around and leave. But I couldn't and I knew that better then anyone if I messed up again this year my mom will take me out of school and that she promise me.
I head into the school surrounded by all the other students minding their own business although it didn't feel like they were it felt like all eyes were on me and I was super nervous, it almost felt like they could smell it off of me. I hate being the new girl. I continue looking for the principals office and after awhile I finally found it. "Hi my name is Serena cealer, I'm new here and I needed some help finding my classes" I say trying to sound as confident as possible. The older women looks at me then at the computer then at me again. "Yes miss cealer I see your name right here as one of our new students, welcome to mt.Olympus high school." She handed me a stack of papers including my schedule and a map of the school. I quietly thank her and walk out the door waving a goodbye. I quickly start head to where my first period class is supposed to be. I head to classroom 482 for my geometry class as I head there however though in my haste I bump into another. "Hey watch it" a rough voice says too me as I back up wishing this wasn't my life right now. "I'm so so so sorry!" I exclaim. The boy turns around and looks at me. "Oh you should be do you know who I am girl?" He sneers "um no sorry" I cowered a little as I hated conflict. He comes towards me but as he steps closer he stops with a look of shock on his face. His face became rosy in color and his pupils dilated, I was confused to say the least but I didn't have the right to say anything as I was the one in the wrong. He quickly stepped back as he put his hand over his mouth as if he was about to vomit and walked away. I stood there for a moment concerned about what just happened but I ignore it and head to my class anyways. I finally find the classroom after having to ask multiple people for help and then being confused anyways because I didn't understand the directions. Once I finally got into the classroom I decided to stay standing until a teacher noticed me which was almost immediately as soon as I started standing a teacher walked right up to me. "Hello young one!" The older teacher said whimsically, he seemed like a very flamboyant older man but very sweet. "You must be our new student miss Serena cealer, am I correct?"
"Yes you are, hi its very nice to meet you." I replied. I looked around the classroom to see most of the student starring at me which I wasn't to keen on but nothing I could do about it now. Mostly I notice the boy from earlier glaring daggers at me. I tried to ignore him as I talked to the teacher but he glar was so heavy I kept looking back. The more I looked the harder his glare got and I could feel the burning sensation of his eyes on me. If looks could kill let just say I would be dead right now. I took a seat where the teacher had decided to place me in the fourth row in the third seat right in between a guy and a girl however right in front of the boy from earlier. I grab my books from my bag and start organizing myself when the girl next to me taps my shoulder. "HI I'm Wendy holder, I know your new here and I would love to be your friend!" She said cheerfully. I couldn't tell if she was eager or just bold or both but I enjoyed that someone was nice enough to ask to be my friend so I didn't have too. "Um yeah sure id love to be your friend." I replied in a soft voice. "Okay great! Here let me see your schedule." She said, I handed her my schedule and we got to talking throughout the class turns out me and Wendy have most of the same classes and lunch together she also showed me too my third and fourth period classrooms which was nice. Finally it was lunch and me and Wendy went and sat down at a table in the corner. "So Serena I heard you had a little problem with hades earlier this morning didn't you?"she questions "hades?" I answered confused if that was the boy from earlier name. "Oh yeah you don't know about that yet do you?" She replies "know about what?" I questioned. "Okay so that boy you had a little incident with earlier is Theo bones basically the high schools king everyone follows his every order and if you don't your in for a lot of trouble hence why we call him hades, we were all surprised to here he left you alone after bumping into him normally he would've had your throat but he didn't do anything to you so were just all a little confused, ya know." She explained. "Oh well I'm glad my neck isn't gone" I giggle at the thought when a couple boys come up to Wendy. "Heya Wendy darling" a boy with blonde almost white hair says "hi Wendy" a shorter boy with brown locks covering his face says, "Wendy who's your hot friend?" The final boy with dyed dark blue hair says. I blush at the thought that someone could think I was hot. Just then I was snapped back into reality as something cold and wet hit my head. I turn around to see Theo with a now empty cup in his hand smirking. I was flabbergasted I was soaked in what I assume is soda from the stickiness and sweet smell, "why" I said in a whisper. "That for bumping into me, don't do it again" he replied as he turned around. I didn't understand what just happened and I don't think I ever would.
