○○○○Amanda's POV○○○○
I ran with Sandy for another few minutes along the track. I arrived home at the perfect time; I had enough time to get dressed and to eat something, but I wouldn't be late nor early to school.
I go upstairs and have a quick shower , I wash my hair and then brush out the knots. I decide to leave my hair down and it flows down my back perfectly. I walk to my closet and get out a cute mid-thigh white lace dress. I slip on my khaki jacket, my favourite bangle and then grab my cheetah clutch purse. (Picture of the outfit on the side ) I slip on my beige strap sandles and walk downstairs.
I give mom a hug and a kiss on the cheek and say goodbye to James.
''Bye mom, I'm going to leave now so Im not late for my first day,'' I say.
''Okay have fun sweetie.'' She says to me.
''I will,'' I try to fake a smile but inside I'm dying of nerves. I have no clue what to expect at the school. Like of course I went to a high school before this one, but my classes only had about 10 people in it compared to our classes now, which have around 30 people in each class.
Mom looks at me and gives me a reassuring smile, " Don't stress Amanda, you'll do fine, I'm positive that you'll make some great friends today, don't worry."
I smile at her. Mom always knows what to say when.
I walk to the counter and grab my keys, I go outside and hop into my shiny turquoise Maserati and start the engine. I drive to school and it takes about five minutes, and I arrive at Jenson High parking lot.
Breathe Amanda, breathe, it will be okay.
After breathing for a few minutes, I slowly climb out of my car. I look around and it's crazy how obvious it is to spot the different groups of people in the school. (This isn't intended for offense, its just a story) There's the goths, the geeks, the drama club, the cheerleaders, there are so many that its almost impossible to count. I sadly see the stuiped immature jocks hanging out by someone's bright red Ferrari . I do my best to try and walk past without drawing too much attention to myself on the first day of school. I notice Ashley (the girl I met at the mall) leaning against a car, surrounded by boys .( I'm not surprised because she is absolutely gorgeous) I walk over to her, trying to act and look as cool as I can.
''Hey Ashley,'' I say smiling.
''Oh my gosh, hey Amanda,'' she pulls me into a warming hug and gives me a huge smile,'' Guys this is Amanda, Amanda these are my friends. This is Jarred, she points to a blonde guy who is standing next to her, and this is Marcus but he prefers to be called Mark," she points to a guy on her left who is quite tall with curly brown hair.
''Hi,'' I say shyly.
''So Amanda we should probably get you signed in at the office, follow me.''
''Okay, bye guys, nice meeting you,'' I say and follow Ashley to the office which is a small building on the side of the massive school building.
We walk in through the huge swinging doors,
''What do you want?'' an old lady asks us without even looking up from her computer screen.
''Morning Sarah, this is Amanda, she's new, she just joined Jenson High today,'' She looks up and I give her a smile.
''Well here you go dear,'' she says, handing me a piece of paper with my schedule on it , "I hope you feel very welcome here and that you enjoy it."
''Thank you,'' I say and Ashley and I walk back out into the parking lot.
''So it looks like we have English, Maths and Geography together,'' Ashley says, peering over my shoulder to get a look at my class timetable.
"I wish we had more classes together,'' I moan,''I'm super nervous for today, you're the only person I know.''
She smiles apologetically and pulls me into a hug, ''I'm sure you will be absolutely fine without me. And I'm sure you are going to make many friends. Come lets go find your locker before school starts." We walk towards the enormous front doors and my stomach is doing back flips.
As soon as I walk through the doors I get a giant shock, I thought that it was busy outside in the parking but it is totally packed with people in here. There are kids stuffing books and nonsense in theirs lockers, kids chatting away not realising that the bell is going to go soon and they haven't even got ready for their lessons, people eating, playing, some are even doing homework against their lockers.
As I walk down the hall with Ashley, some people turn around and stare at us.
OMG!! Is there something on my face? Am I dressed weirdly? My hair? I have no clue why all these people are looking at us? Maybe it's Ashley they're looking at? I mean, she is really pretty. Maybe it's her? Please let it be Ashley.
I tun to face Ashley and she's smiling at me ,'' Ash please tell me that they are looking at you,'' I say hopefully.
''Nope, this is all for the awesome new girl that they're all jealous to meet and be friends with,'' she says laughing at me.
I reach my locker, which is number 33, and I quickly open the door and stick my head in as far as it can go, without looking weird, to hide my embarrassment. My cheeks are going as red as tomatoes and they are starting to heat up. Damn you cheeks.
Then suddenly some random guy comes up to me and says,
'' I'm sorry, I don't think we've met. I wouldn't forget a pretty face like that,''
I look up and see a handsome guy with blonde hair, he is quite tall but not that much more than me. Although he is very cute and flattering, I'm not really looking for a boyfriend this year. I want to focus mostly on my grades and a bit less on my social life seeing as this is a scholarship that I got because of my dads promotion.
'' I'm Amanda, and you are?"
"Your dream man," he smirks at me.
Who does he think he is? Seriously. My first day and someone is already hitting on me.
" Well its nice to meet you, whoever you are, " I say chuckling, I start to walk away and he just stares at me, because he obviously is used to girls falling over him. As we walk away I look back and see his stunned face. It's priceless. He is so surprised that his stuiped pick up line didn't work on me.
We walk to class 234 , I slowly open the door and Ashley and I walk in.
