Noel

You're a mighty little bumble bee.

I laughed at the words my mom told me every day before she passed. She's the one who made me that mighty little bee. It still hurt to think she's gone. I shook the memory of her out of my head before it made me cry.

I walked down the empty halls of the grand new school. I could've walked with my brothers but they didn't want to be seen with a junior. How rude! Jai and Justin have always been that way. You would think if I were a new kid I'd get someone to escort me. But being alone gave me the chance to inspect my outfit in every reflective surface I passed. I played it simple with black skinny jeans, black-white vans, black shirt, gray zip up, and a black nike hat. Of course I had the latest trend of make up style, I didn't want to look out of place, although it still looks a bit natural.

Finally I saw classroom, B-2, philosophy. Boy am I nervous, pulling my hat lower to cover most of my face. I slowly opened the door, and walked in just to have twenty pairs of eyes land on me. How wonderful.

Event the teacher gave me an odd look. "May I help you miss?" She questioned. I say she was in her early thirties. Not gonna lie she was pretty.

"Uh yeah, I'm new to the class I guess?" I didn't know what to say I was nervous. But then again I'm always nervous, so there's nothing new.

"Ah yes, I was wondering why there was an extra name on my roster this morning, take a seat please." She smiled kindly before gesturing her hand to the multiple empty desks." Oh and hats are not permitted in my class."

Just when I thought I was gonna like her. I took off my hat before sitting, allowing people to catch a glimpse of my face. A few boys nudging each other and a few girls making sour faces, geez am I that ugly?

I sat next to a girl that seemed to be decent, I guess.

" Hey new girl, I'm Megan." she greeted. New Girl, oh whale.

"I'm Noel, um by any chance do you have a clue what we're doing?" I questioned.

"Nothing really, she's been running in an out of the class for the past 15 minutes, you're lucky you came in while she was here, or else you would've been standing there for quite some time." She mentioned." So just by a guess, I take it that you have no friends, find me at lunch and you can sit with me and my friends."

"Thanks dude, so what grade are you in?"

"Junior, what about you?" She asked back.

"Junior." I stated just as I felt someone staring at me, I swiftly turned to see a guy with green eyes staring at me as all of his friends were talking around him. Creep.

As soon as the bell rang I gathered my things slowly, then making it Into the hallway. Peering down at my phone I felt my head collide with what I assume was a locker by the way it slammed shut. I was suddenly laid on my back trying to evaluate where I went wrong in life to deserve this.

"Are you okay babe?" Is that a British accent? In a Californian school? Odd. I finally met a pair of eyes that belonged to the guy in my philosophy class.

"Oh god, not the creep?" Oh shit I said that out loud. Great.

"Creep?" He laughed. "Are you gonna lay there all day?"

"If it's my easy way out of not going to class then I say yes." I smirked getting comfortable.

"It gets uncomfortable after a while." he said before extending his arm towards me. I took it kind of thankfully, but not expressing it much. To be completely honest he was really cute. "I'm Harry by the way."

"Why don't you just shave then?" I questioned.

"What? Wait, No. My name is Harry." He laughed.

"Nice to meet you Harry, I'm Noel, most likely you're worst nightmare." I smirked.

"What a tiny nightmare you'd be." He shot, not fair he's like freakin 6"2, while I gotta look at this giraffe from a 5"3 starting point.

"Cut me some slack being short isn't my ideal height but I'm working with it, plus I kinda just wanted to say that since...always." I said as we walked to my class.

"You're something else, Noel. I'll see you around." He said as he shot me a wink. When he said "something else" is he trying to hint that I look like a foot. How rude!

" Oh guys this is Noel. Noel this is Landon, and Sophia." Megan announced as we sat at a lunch table.

"Oh my goodness, girl I need to get myself one of those hats, I saw it on my Twitter feed." Landon said causing me to laughing.

"I'll send you the link." I said before popping a grape into my mouth.

I'm so thankful I met Megan, now I know I won't be alone! Just then Harry walked in, with a bunch of his friends. Walking past the table I was sitting. I think he noticed I was staring because he looked me in the eyes before giving me a smirk and a wink. Seriously does this boy have an eye twitch or something because he keeps winking at me.

"Dude, Harry Styles, The senior just looked at you! And winked!" Sophia said.

"Yeah so?" I said continuing to eat my grapes. " I'm pretty sure he looked at me because I look like a rats ass, or at least that's what my brothers tells me." I spoke thinking of how Justin called me that in our last argument.

"Oh sweetie you do not!" Landon said. "You're hot as hell, and the only thing that boy is trying to do, is get into you panties, girl. He's been trying to get into mine since the start of freshmen year." Landon winked causing me to laugh.

"Yeah don't recommend get involved with him." Megan added. "He's just gonna hit it and quit it, which is such a shame because he is so cute."

"He didn't seem that bad in the hallway." I spoke, resulting in everyone's eyes to land on me. "What?"

"You talked to him?" Sophia asked.

"Well I wasn't going to but ya know walking into his locker wasn't exactly what I had planned." I said casually.

"Just be careful, Noel, I mean it's not long before you'll end up in his bed now. He's a charmer." Landon said taking a bite of his sandwich.
