Laylas POV;

This morning had been a tough one. Waking up in a house by yourself is so weird, I usually rely on my mum for pretty much everything, but now mum has gone away for a while, it kind of weird not having her here.

Getting ready was the usual thing, shower,hair,makeup & food. I don't know but it just didn't feel right, and knowing I had to put up with the same feeling for the next month seemed scary. I decided to make myself feel better my putting my iPod in my docking station and pressing play, I smiled at the outcome & started singing along.

Moving from Blackpool was kind of a big shock, I sat all my exams, got good grades and then mum just announced we were moving to London. I've left all my friends behind and it's a horrible feeling starting sixth form with nobody there for you. Mum said I would be fine and make new friends, but it's always been a difficult thing for me. I mean, I've had friends, lots of them, but the thing is they all seemed to leave me when I told them about my past.

I grabbed a slice of toast and ran out of the door, quickly unlocking it and plugging my earphones in. Pressing play I drifted off into a music world full of amazing artists, Ed Sheeran being one of the main ones. Walking was quite peaceful when you had Ed singing softly right into your ears, but you get your own thoughts snatched out of your head when a car goes whizzing past you.

The school looked so small from the last time I saw it, two months ago when nobody was here.. I nervously edged towards the school and I looked to my left slightly to see a group of boys pointing at wolf whistling at me. Seriously? This has happened since year 9, and I don't understand why, I may have the long legs, the long blonde hair and some dead pale blue eyes, but I've never seen why that's society's definition of beauty. I chose to ignore and just move on. I took my planner out of the satchel to my side,

English, 201 second floor. I was all prepared for the day to go to a good start, I was just hoping for the best.

I walked to my class and peered through the little window. shit I was late for yet another thing. I knocked on the door and the teacher gave me a surprised look. I opened the door slightly enough for me to slide through the gap. "uh, sorry I'm late, hi" I stuttered. "and where have you been?" The teacher shot me a concerned look "I..I'm new here, I didn't know how I get around, I'm sorry" was the best excuse I could come up with. "Aaah! You must be Layla, new right? Girl from Blackpool? Yes yes, take a seat at the back with Troye, I'm sure you two will get on" she pointed to a boy who looked lost, staring at the seat next to him.

I walked over to the skinny figure of a boy with the beanie and waited for him to re fix his glance.
