I wake up, not willingly, but I get up nonetheless, I head into the bathroom to get changed into my uniform, my anxiety's high and the overthinking kicks in, that's until my best friend texts me.
' yo'
'You wanna walk to school with me?'
I read the message and take a deep breath, I really didn't want to walk to school alone today. Not on the first day of school, maybe if we were a week in I would be fine but not today. Really not today.
'Yh, when you leaving?'
I text back, continuing to get changed I wait for her reply. I can hear my brothers arguing with each other as they get ready for school. Cole is 9 while James is 12. And they always argue like an unhealthy amount. I try to ignore them however that's easier said than done with my brothers. They constantly argue and they are as bad as each other.
My phone buzz's on the windowsill and I look at the notification. Jessie is typing. Jessie sent a chat. I open my phone and click into Snapchat and read her message.
'At 8'
I rely with a simple ok, and find my shoes. This is the part I'm dreading, because on our introduction day these shoes gave me blisters and then the blisters popped while I was wearing the shoes. So yeah pain never felt any better.
About 10 minutes later mum is telling me to have a good day and then I am out the door and on my way to meet jessie.
...
Once we get to school after the 30 minute walk, we head in. I go to my form room and she goes to hers. Once I get to my form room the doors locked so I wait outside. Not too long after I'm joined after 2 boys in my class, one of a bigger build with dark brunette hair. The other thin and with lighter hair still brunette but lighter.
We awkwardly smile at each other and slowly other people start joining us, and soon our form teacher joins us, he lets us in just go do the registration and then brings us up to our, well what's supposed to be our form room from now on.
I immediately pick a seat at the back of the room, no matter what I've always chosen a seat at the back of the classroom for years. It just feels better, keeps me out of the way and teachers are less likely to call on me when I sit at the back.
Eloise sits beside me, and we start talking until form is done and then we head to our first class, we are separated for the first two periods as they are our chosen subjects. I choose business studies, I want to run my own business when I'm older, a dog grooming one, so me and mum thought it would be a good idea that I go for this as my chosen subject.
Our teacher, Mrs fell. Starts to introduce the subjects and I start to focus. The girl beside me is nice, so I start talking with her once Mrs fell is done.
...
It's break time and I'm walking about with Eloise, we go to leave our bags at our next class, English, so we go and leave our bags off with miss Shepard and once again I choose a seat at the back. We head back outside for the rest of break time.
We keep walking and walking until finally the bell rings and we head back upstairs when we get there I immediately notice how Miss shepherd starts to talk about a seating plan, thankfully she keeps me in my seat but places a boy next to me. Once again of the slightly bigger build however a nice big, you know.
I soon find out his name is Nathan we don't talk much and just sit in a nice silence, he talk's easily with Eloise who is infront of us and I knew he and her would immediately get along. Just based on reading their body languages and how happy they sound talking to each other. There is also another girl I recognise, Emily.
And soon enough English passes in a flash. And it's maths and then lunch finally, I cannot wait to get something to eat that's if I eat, I'll probably not.
Once we get to maths Mrs Kennedy soon starts, and I just know I'm gonna struggle, I hate maths and have never ever been good at it however, if explained right and shown to me in a written form I can do it, this teacher right off the bat does not do that. But yet again I am placed next to Nathan.
This period we start talking to each other, and he helps me with the maths work and actually helps. And soon enough we are talking easily.
...
I was right, I didn't eat at lunch, I got too overwhelmed and didn't eat. I didn't even buy food, I just sat down with Eloise once she got her food and then talked with her most of lunch once we were allowed in.
We were on the later lunch so we just walked around until we were let in. Now we have Science and it's one subject I either hate or love depending on the teacher.
Once again I'm placed near the back of the room and placed next a girl, one called Jessica. She has blonde hair and I tend to ignore her through the lesson. I cannot wait until school is over because I just want out of here.
I hate teenagers even though I am one, I much prefer adult company and I get along with very few teens. I continue to listen to the teacher though.
...
Finally the day is over! And I'm on my way home I bump into my best friend Jessie and walk home with her, I talk with her about the school day, she talks about hers and how she knows no-one in her class and I talk about how I know 2 people.
We walk through the down talking and then she leaves me at her street and I begin walking on home, to immediately get changed and take simba on a quick walk to destress.
I'm so not ready for tomorrow.

I would like to start off by saying names are fake, no-ones real names are in this!.
Also it took me so long to write this first chapter because I had gotten sick and had no motivation to write but I'm a bit better and had some motivation today!. I really hope the first chapter is ok and makes sense!.
I'm going back to TikTok now!.
