Ari's P.o.v

September 8, 2015, 8:00 am.

Today was my first day of high school. But unfortunately, I was not excited, I wasn't even ready to exit my car and enter my new school. Just one look at it and all I thought was "wow...my personal hell".

Just recently I had moved. I graduated the 8th grade and then poof , I was gone. A week before my graduation I had come home, from school, to my parents packing boxes.

*Flashback*

"Mom what are you doing?" I asked once I walked into my house.  Before she can answer my question my step-dad walked out from the kitchen speaking up

"Were moving. Now help us pack before your brother gets home from school"

*End of flashback*

Just like that. We packed and left. I wasn't even able to say bye to most of my closest friends...

So thats why I am here still sitting in the car, with my mom, in front of the school. I was paying so much attention to the students entering the high school that I didn't realize my mom was speaking to me. 

"Ariana. Ariana. ARIANA" my mom shouted. 

Moving my attention from the window to look at her I answered her, "Yes??"

"Why aren't you going inside?" 

"Cause I don't want to go..." 

"Sweetie you have to go in. Now. You have 5 minutes before the bell rings and you need to try and find your homeroom. So bye! Love you" she opened my car door making me groan and as I step out. "Have a good day honey" she said to me through the now open window and drove off.

I turned away from were my mom previously was and started walking into my hellhole.

The bell rang 10 minutes ago and I still haven't found my homeroom. I was about to give up until I saw a girl leave a classroom and start to walk towards me. 

Was she watching me or something?  'cause I'm pretty sure that the hallways cleared out a long time ago..

"Hi, I'm Danielle" she said to me waving slightly. I gave her a nod, not exactly knowing why she was speaking to me. "I'm guessing that you don't know where your homeroom is?" I gave her a confused look but nodded again. "The school sent out an email to all the parents saying that the students had to be here at 7:30. So the teachers would lead us to our homerooms. But because your late would you like me to help guide you to your homeroom?" 

"Sure..my homeroom is 9R, room 401. I was looking but I can't seem to find it" I finally answered. While she giggled.

"haha wow! Were in the same class that cool! and our class is actually right here." she said pointing to the room she just left. I was confused.

"Are you sure? The room number says 40??" 

"The one fell off" she quickly said as she grabbed my arm and pulled me into the class room.

Holy Fuck. Fuck

Why is everyone staring at me? 

I gulped then took a quick breath relaxing. I then turned towards the teacher and gave him my pass and then walked to an empty seat near the back of the room.  Eventually everyone continued talking again making me look around. Danielle had left me alone and went back to I'm guessing her group of friends. I then looked to a group of boys not to far from me talking and goofing around. Making me smile.  I didn't realize that I was looking at one particular guy until he looked up at me. I thought he was going to give me a weird look but instead gave me a beautiful smile.

I blushed noticing I was caught and turned around hiding behind my hair. I kept smiling though. My smile almost making me think that I would enjoy my stay here at this school.

When lunch time finally came around I sat a table by myself. I hadn't really spoken to anybody besides  that chick Danielle from earlier. But I didn't mind being alone, it gave me time to think. 

 I was about to eat my chicken nugget when 4 people came and sat down around me. I continued to eat my chicken nugget not paying so much attention to them. 

"Oye cual es tu nombre" (hey what's your name?) I glanced up slightly to look at the girl who just spoke to me in spanish. She had dark brown hair that reached her waist, with chocolate eyes, and nice tan skin.

"Ariana" I responded making her give me a ghost smile.

"See I told you she was hispanic Elijah!" I watched silently as the girl that had asked me the question yell at the boy I was looking at earlier. Hm....Elijah. 

"Well my bad! Its not like I actually know her." He argued back defending himself putting his hands up.   Making me and the other two girls laugh. We were quiet after that, me still unsure about what they wanted to talk to me about.

The second guy that had sat beside me has been staring at me every minute or so. I wasn't surprised when he started to speak to me.

"So um..Ariana. Where are you from?" he asked. meanwhile, I just gave him a weird look.

"Why do you want to know?" I snapped not liking how they were here just trying to "know me"

"Cálmate" (Calm down) he said laughing lightly. "I'm Oliver"

"Im Elijah" Elijah said piping into the introductions.

The girl that asked me for my name was next, "Theia"

Then the last person was the one beside Theia. "And I'm Casey"

"Welcome to Adverdale High School" Elijah said smiling brightly at me
