DAY 1

"Umm, I am not really good at this because obviously I'm new at it,but would try my best. My name is Emmy, I am from New Delhi. I am here because my dad got a really good transfer over here. I love Taylor Swift with all my life, John Mayer is the best guitarist in the world, I like to play guitar, though I am just a beginner, I love to read and... I guess that's all." I finish introducing myself.

I could see people giving me warm smiles, so hopefully I wasn't all that bad.

I grinned back.

"Welcome to your new school Emmy, Take a seat." My new teacher, whose name I can't remember, tells me.

Still smiling, I take a seat.

New school, new place, new people- sounds exciting right?

It's all a 'new beginning' scenario. A new start to my new life in a place where no one knows anything about my past and me.

Sounds crazy good right?

It is, but at the same time I really wish I make some friends and get along with people.

I really miss my old school and old friends.

No time to grieve though. I promised myself that I would start anew. And it's not like I won't meet them ever again, right? I love all of them and I am not letting anyone go.

"I know it's the first day and no one wants to study, so I am not going to teach." The teacher whose-name-I-can't-remember-but-am-starting-to-like says.

The class hoots in response.

"So go make friends." She tells me. I smile, she returns to her place and starts going through stuff.

Now to the difficult part, communication.

"Hi!" I say to the girl sitting right behind me.

"Hey" she replies with a fake smile and turns back to her friend.

Rude.

I sigh. This is going to be really difficult.

I place a hand on my head and look down.

"Hi!" I hear a girl's voice and look up to see a girl.

She is shorter than me , maybe 4'8". She had long black hair in a plait, which flowed till her mid thigh. Was bit darker complexion than mine, and with the most adorable dimples.

FINALLY!
"Hi." I say and smile politely.

"So you are new." She states.

"Yeah"

"I am new too."

"Seriously?"

"Yup"

"We are going to be great friends." I smile.

She brings a chair and sits right in front of desk.

"My name is Katie. I adore music and love to dance." She smiled showing her adorable dimples.

Aww!

"You are so cute." I say and pinch her cheeks.

"You get dimples" I continue and poke her cheek.

She starts laughing.

"You are right, we are going to be great friends."

And then I walk out of the class with her to discover the school.

No we are not bunking, it's lunch.

"How old are you?" I ask Katie. We are coming back from lunch hall which is all the way down.

"14"

"I am 15. How does it feel to be younger than me shortcake?"

"Sure grandma" she rolls her eyes.

We fake a glare and enter the class smiling.

See, I foretold that were were going to be great friends!

I see few girls looking at me and giggling.

Weird.

And I turn around to see...

Guess what.

No, not a hot guy.

No, not a joker.

Not even an freaking unicorn.

It's rather a blackboard with a heart drawn on it. And it has two names inside.

The names being Emmy and

Max
What the hell?

"Who is Max?" I ask out loud.

I am not actually angry that I got paired up with someone who I don't even know on the very first day. This whole episode is actually kind of funny and I want to see who this Max guy is.

After all... he got shipped with me.

Just kidding, I am not so full of myself.

The girls point to a guy sitting about three benches away from me, smiling cheekily.

The first thing I noticed about him was his hair and eye colour. Both are pitch black, in a beautiful way. They remind me of a blackout or maybe a storm.

He has a nice jawline, full pink lips and the most adorable smile.

"Who made it?" I ask curiously.

The girls giggled again.

Oh god, don't tell the girls here are all girly gossiping birdies who love to create problems for everyone.

But the giggles mean they did.

"You couldn't erase it?" I ask the guy.

"I can, but I won't. I'm too lazy."

I give him a fake smile, walk up to the board and write Monkeys instead of Emmy and walk out.

He is not my type. I like bad boys.

Though, he definitely is nice looking and has a hot voice.

But he is definitely not my type.

He's beautiful though
