The New Girl

'BROOKLYN!' Jessica screams. I look at my phone screen. She just facetime called me.

'JESSICA!' I scream back.

'I miss you boo.' She says and pouts.

'I miss you too.' I reply and sigh.

'How was your first day?' She asks and smiles.

'Fine. There is a cute guy who led me to class.' I tell her and blush.

'Uuuu, what's his name?'

'Isac.'

'What does he look like?'

'Jees, Jessica you ask too much!' I say and laugh. 'But he is really tall, like REALLY, and he has dark blonde hair and chocolate brown eyes.'

'He is tall and has brown eyes, what more do you want?!' Jessica says and giggles.

'Damn Jess, I only know him for one day. Oh, he saw me dancing in my living room by the way.' I say.

'Wait what?'

'Yeah I was dancing and singing with loud music on and he saw me. He was looking through the window.'

'Oh my god and then?' Jessica raises her eyebrows.

'He pressed the door bell and I opened. We talked a bit and then he left.' I say and sigh.

'Uuuu! So he's your friend?' She asks and does the eyebrow dance.

'I don't know.' I reply uncertainly. 'I gotta sleep now Jess. Night!'

'Okay, good night!'

I put my phone off and crawl under the covers. I close my eyes and try to sleep but it takes some time.

- Next day -

I wake up because of my alarm clock again. I step out of bed and do my usual routine. Then I head downstairs to get breakfast.

'Morning!' I say. No reply. Oh yeah, mom's at work. I grab some yogurt and a banana and eat it. Then I quickly put my shoes and jacket on and head to the bus stop.

I walk through the school gates by my own. Why are people still staring at me? I know I'm new, so? I turn my face to the ground and walk into school. I quickly change my books and then head to class. History... I sit down in the back again, all alone. At this time I miss Jessica. We always sat next to each other and now I'm just the new girl who no one knows. Isac and his friends didn't say anything to me this morning. I saw them, but they were talking and I didn't want to interrupt them.

- Lunch break -

I walk to my locker to change my books again. Then I walk to the school canteen. It's raining so I don't want to sit outside. I look around the canteen and see Isac sitting all alone. I walk towards him.

'Hi.' I say. He looks up at me.

'Hey.' He replies.

'Uhm can I sit here?' I ask. He nods.

'Sure!'

'Why are you alone?' I ask and grab an apple from my bag.

'The others have uhm.. It doesn't matter.'

Okay?

'Okay then.' I say and take a bite of my apple.

'Do you have siblings?' Isac suddenly asks. I shake my head.

'You?'

'Yeah one sister. Ava.' He says and nods. This is kind of awkward.

'What are your, uhm, hobbies?' I ask and look at him.
