"have a nice day at school sweetie I hear my mom say as I step out of her old gray mini van."
"ok mom see you later,"
I watch her drive down the street until I can no longer see her. I turn around and see my new school. It's huge. bigger than all of the other schools i've been to in my past years. I walk into the looming building and find myself lost already. I soon find a sign that says *office to the right* I follow that path and soon find myself at what seems to be the office.
"Hello?" I say
"Can I help you." This lady asks looking up from her computer.
Ugh yeah I'm the new student."
"Oh im sorry, no wonder I didn't recognize you." She smiles, it seems genuine yet fake as if she was annoyed she was wrong. She searches through some papers and soon pulls out a file.
"Ahhh here it is, ok so... Savannah Rose is it? Your next class is at 9:30, and since it's only 9 how bout you go to your locker and get settled. I will send our student rep to come and show you around at about 9:20."
"ok cool thank you."
No problem, the lockers are right down the hall to the left.
"Thanks again." I say as I head out the door down the hall.
I soon find my locker and begin to put all of my books in my locker. I try to make it look nice even though I know by tomorrow it will be a complete mess. I check my schedule and look at my classes while I wait for my guide.
math: w/ M. Cattons
s.s: w/ P. Newborne
Science: w/ L. Hartford
reading: w/ C. larson
Language arts: w/ C. Larson
art: w/ K. Hart
Lunch
choir: M. Love
This is a pretty cool schedule I think to myself just normal stuff. Nothing to make me seem different from anyone else, nothing to make me stand out or be a nerd or freak.
I soon hear someone walking down the hallway. I finish putting the final things in my locker and shut it.
Hey you must be Savannah?"
yeah I say I turn around to see the most attractive boy I have ever seen. He has big green eyes and dark brown hair. He is wearing a black shirt with a skull on it, blue jeans and vans.
Yeah." I mumble, I brush a piece of my hair behind my ear.
Im Matt, So what do you have for third period?"
"Oh..." I ruffle through my folders and soon find it.
"I have science with L. Hartford."
"Oh cool i have that too!" I blush when he says that because he says that with so excitement.
I smile at him and he smiles back. Oh god he is so cute.
"So, can I see your schedule just to see the rest of your classes? I promise I wont look at your locker combo."
I hand the paper to him and pull it back playfully, he laughs and actually hand to it.
"Wow, this is cool we have science, art, and lunch together!"
I smile.
Ok, so let me show you where all of your classes are."
Ok cool." I follow him as he describes every little detail about school, the teacher versions and the student version. For example under the stairs. For teachers: under the stairs, but for students: Perfect place to go make out since the cameras don't go down that hall, and the only teacher that goes down that hall is Mrs Briggs, who is legally blind.
The only thing I didn't expect coming from Matt is that whenever we would pass someone in the hall they would say hi to him and they seemed happy too. I wanted ask him how he knew all of those people but then he started talking about a weird insolent he had with a teacher or something. Matt just didn't seem like the popular type, he seemed like he would sit in the corner of his room listening to screemo until he and his friends went skateboarding at 2 am.
By the time the tour is over I know way to much about this school, we end the tour at my 4th period class.
"Sorry I'm not in this class with you, but you're hilarious, so you'll make friends easily."
"Thanks and see you later." I add and smile.
Yeah, bye." He turns around and walks down the hall past the stairs. Hopefully I acted "normal" but with my luck, i probably didn't.
