It was George's first day of year 11, George was excited but also scared to start. George was starting at a new school in Florida this year after moving from the United Kingdom to America.

George liked school, not only because he was smart but because there was lots of fun after school clubs and activities. George had always loved swimming and was planning on signing up for the swim team this year.

George was excited to meet his online friend Karl who lived in Florida, Karl had moved from Minnesota to Florida a year prior. George and Karl had been friends for years talking through discord. They are both going to the same school this year. George and Karl had met on Minecraft. The two were so similar they easily became best friends.

George was awoken by the loud beeping of his alarm clock. George quickly sat up as he tried to turn off that terrible noise. George turned the alarm clock off and whipped the sleep from his eyes.

George lifted himself up off his bed as he walked to his bathroom to brush his teeth and get ready for school. On the way to the bathroom, he stopped to say Goodmorning to his big sister Natalie.

George walked into the bathroom and shut the door as he started his morning routine, first he brushed his teeth, then he washed his face, then he applied some light make up such as some light blush and concealer under his eyes. George wasn't a big fan of makeup, but he liked a little bit to make him feel more confident. George brushed his hair before walking back into his room to change into his school clothes. George chose a graphic-tee and some jeans, when George finished changing, he walked downstairs where breakfast was waiting for him. George said good morning to his mum and started eating breakfast.

When George finished his breakfast, he washed off his plate before loading it into the dishwasher and thanking his mum. George gave his mum a peck on the cheek before heading out the door to catch the bus since he could not drive yet. George was currently learning how to drive because in the UK they drive on different sides of the roads and have different rules.

While George was waiting for the bus, a black-haired boy walked up to the stop. He had on a white bandana and a t-shirt with a flame on it. George thought the ravenette looked really cool but was too shy to talk to him.

After about 5 minutes of waiting the bus arrived, George and the other teens boarded the bus. George didn't know where to sit on the bus since everyone seemed to have their own little groups. George was standing there aimlessly for a little while until he was yelled at by the bus driver to sit down, everyone turned to look at him. George was extremely embarrassed; George saw a hand shoot up and wave him over. It was that black haired boy from earlier. Georged walked over and sat down next to the ravenette.

"Thanks for that," George said with a shy smile. "No problem, dude! My name is Nick, but my friends call me Sapnap," the boy said. "I haven't seen you around before, are you new?" the ravenette questioned. "Yeah, I am. I'm George, i moved here from the UK," George replied. "Woah, so you're British! That's awesome" Nick said cheerfully. "I am," George said with a smile. George and Nick talked the rest of the way to school.

Right before George got off the bus, Nick asked him if he needed help finding the office and George said yes. Nick walked George to the office before telling him he would see him later.

Right as George was going to walk into the office, he heard Nick yell "Hey George, come sit with me at lunch!" George smiled as he walked into the office knowing he had just made his first new friend.

George walked into the office as Mrs. Minx directed him to the principal's office. When George walked in, he saw principal Schlatt sitting at his desk with a long-haired brunette boy. George entered the room as Schlatt greeted him.

"Hey George, it's nice to meet ya!" Schlatt said as George gave a simple "hello," as Schlatt continued. "From my understanding you are from the UK, correct?" he asked. "Yes sir," George replied. "Wonderful, so here is your schedule." Schlatt said as he handed George the piece of paper. "This is Darryl, he will be giving you a tour of the school." Schlatt said with a smile. "It's nice to meet you, George, I hope we can be great friends!" Darryl said with a huge smile. "It's nice to meet you too." George said, showing a smile. "Let's get going on your tour now," Darryl said with a smile.

George followed Darryl out of Schlatt's office as they set out on the tour.

Darryl and George walked around the building together as Darryl explained where and what classroom each room was, right as they got to the library the door swung open knocking George to the floor. "What the hell?" George yelled out.

"Oh shit, I'm sorry." the guy said in a mocking tone.

"Asshole.." George mumbled out under his breath. The guy slowly turned around while locking eyes with George. The boy was a tall blonde with what George assumed were green eyes, even though they look piss yellow to him.

"What did you just say to me?" the blonde said glaring at George.

"You heard me." George replied with a sudden boost of confidence.

As the blonde started to approach George the bell rang, the taller stopped approaching "You're so lucky the bell just rang." the taller said as he turned to walk away.

As soon as the blonde left, George turned to Darryl, "that guys a jerk." George said while Darryl helped him to his feet. "Yeah, he's not very friendly." Darryl said with a frown. "Who was that?" George asked. "That's Clay, he's the most popular in school, everyone calls him Dream because he's the dream boy." Darryl explained.

"Well for the dream boy, he seems like a jerk, who would even like him." George said laughing. "Come on George we have got to get to class, you don't want to be late on your first day." Darryl said with a smile.

George followed after Darryl as he was brought to his first class. As soon as George made it to the doorway the teacher Mr. Higgins stopped him. "You're George, right?" Mr. Higgins asked. "Yes sir," George responded quietly.

"I'm Mr. Higgins, I will be teaching history," he said with a warm smile. George nodded. "Let's see, how about you go sit with Zak," Mr. Higgins said. George looked around the room aimlessly until a black-haired boy raised his hand. George walked up to the seat and sat down.

"Nice to meet you, I'm George," George said with a smile. "I'm Zak" The ravenette said. The teacher started to begin his lecture as George looked around the room to see if any of his friends were in his class.

To George's dismay there was no one he knew in class. Suddenly he heard the door to the classroom open. George was looking over at a girl with red and black hair when he saw a shadow looming over him. "You're in my seat," a voice said loudly.
