New schools.

Today was interesting I guess. Just like I thought. We just arrived in Kansas and it's colder than I expected, today is supposed to be the day when I get to meet my 'friend'. I always laugh at that. I decide just to stay in my sweat pants cause you know they are my 'friend' right. Ha. Sure.

"Lindsey! Your 'friend' is here!" I heard my dad shout.

I picked up my stick from my lap. I haven't gotten used to this house yet. I used the stick to walk around. As I made my way downstairs I heard a boy's voice and I felt my spine lift a little. Just saying it was a very calm and soothing voice. Once I reached the steps I felt my dads huge hand on my shoulder. I took in a deep breath when I heard someone with clunky feet walk in front of me.

"Hey, Lindsey!" The boy in front of me said.

My breath hitched to the back of my throat, for some reason I became really nervous.

"Hi! What's your name." I said with a smile.

I heard him chuckle a little, in a good way.

"I'm Colby." He said.

I felt him pick up my hand and shake it. I shook back. I'm glad he's nice my assistant, my old 'friend' wasn't the best. She treated me like I was dumb, but Colby treats me like I was his best friend, so far. My parents told Colby how to help me in any way. I have a special locker with little dials, but if I have any trouble Colby is supposed to be there in case I need help. I grew fond of Colby really quickly. He's a nice person. I'm happy that he gets to help me and not some sloppy girl. No offense but that's basically me.

"So what's your favorite genre of music?" Colby asked me as he softly took my stick away from my hands as I sat down on the couch.

"Umm, pop, rock, and classical I guess." I said shrugging my shoulders.

"What do you like to do?" I asked him.

I heard him sigh and fix something on his head. It sounds like some sort of hat.

"I like to... I don't know be funny I guess, make jokes and live in the moment I guess." I heard him say.

"What kind of hat are you wearing." I asked him.

I think I heard him gasp.

"How do you know I'm wearing a hat?" He asked.

"Well I can hear you fixing some thing on your head so..." I said moving my hands around.

"Oh, okay. I'm wearing a black, beanie." He said.

Colby and I get along really well I guess. Once Colby left I was jumping out of my skin in excitement. It's my first day of high school this Friday. Colby is supposed to meet me at the front of the school, on the first day of school.

I'm scared.
