Pheonix Drop High (Aphmau)

First Day of School! - Chapter 1

"Aphmau?!" my mom called.

"Nooo!" I groaned cuddling with my white micro fiber pillows.

"Get up!" my mom howled

"Five more minutes.." I promised

As my mom she found a clever way to get me out of my bed saying that my five minute technique is a lie. Ugh!

This time I tried for four more minutes of precious sleeping time but then again she yammered on about me missing my first day of high school, which I could not have!

"Fine." I reasoned sighing I as remembered my excitement and jumped out of bed bursting into my closet changing into my school uniform.

After that I  scurried to my dresser crossing off my school checklist in my brain.

"Backpack? Check!" "Pencils? Check!" "Paper? Check!" Then my eyes slowly drift to my  stuffed animal sitting patiently to be put in my blue backpack along with my other necessities, after a long time of staring at my stuffy I give my self a pep talk on why I shouldn't bring my stuffy. As I apologize to my stuffed animal begin telling myself about all the great stuff I can achieve on my first day!

"Nothing will stand in my way of earning perfect grades and making friends!" I boast. "Nothing I tell you, NOTHING!  I start laughing as if I had just won a race of the country! As it slowly turns into crying as I came in last place out of the whole country!

"Aphmau?" I hear a voice. "Aphmau, are you crying in the closet again?" my mother questions.

She slowly opens the door. "Whats wrong?" my mother asks. I tell her how i'm scared  and don't want to go to high school anymore since being home schooled and all, you get the gist of it. "It's only been a year." she says sweetly. "Besides." I complain "I haven't talked to another kid my age in person since middle school!" Being given the title mom she can overcome the worst she told I was going to be fine and everything was going to be okay. Also she  reminded me not to talk to boys.

I thanked my mom and hurried to school.

                                                           ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~'

I arrived at school deciding it would be a good idea to take a first day of school selfie!

"The perfect self-  hah, watch where your going!" The student who walked into me had bruises and band- aids all over his face I decided to think nothing of it. "You jerk!" I called out has he walked away as if nothing happened.

I posted my picture on Instagram and tucked my phone in my skirt pocket. Walking  past a group of girls chatting away I made my way to the big bulky iron doors and tried opening it. The door never budged a  bit. Wondering if they forgot to open the doors on the first day I kept struggling with the door trying trying to pry it open, the struggle must've been so real  I didn't notice someone approaching me from behind.

"Hehehe!" She giggled "I'm assuming you're a freshman." she said. I twirled around facing a girl with long  brown hair and dark brown eyes.

"Huh, eek!" I squealed I as I faced her looking down at my black loafers.

"Ah, sorry didn't mean to startle you. Jumpy one, eh?" she apologized.

"Heh, sorry!" I apologized back "The door is locked and I-" she cut me off

"Worried about that? Don't bother. They usually lock the doors on the first day here." She informed me.

"Then they'll let everyone flood in and BAM! Chaos everywhere." She carried on.

"Eerr....." I squirmed "That sounds weird.." I began fidgeting

She took notice and said "...You're really nervous, huh? You're shaking a lot."She said as she examined me.

"I'm sorry.." I said looking at her face again. "You're really the first person I've talked to in a year." I squealed.

"Wha? WHOA!" She jumped! "What does that mean? Someone keep you in a dungeon or something?" She exclaimed.

"N-no.. It's not that.. I mean I-I was home schooled." I said sighing as if and anvil have been taken off my chest.

"That sounds awesome!" She exclaimed "Getting to stay home everyday!? BEST. SCHOOL. EVER!" She squealed in excitement.

"Heh, It's more lonely then anything.." I forced a smile.

Immediately she commented on my "cute" forced smile and cheered me up!

"W-would you l-like to be my frien-?" A teacher approached Teony and interrupting our friendly conversation.

"TEONY!" The teachers voice boomed "Ms. Peacock is looking for you!" His voiced boomed again.

"Already? The school isn't even open yet!" Teony complained.

"She needs you right now. Something about missing papers for homeroom?"He said uncertainly.

I stood their wondering what Teony had to do with missing papers!

Teony sighed. "She's probably not wearing her glasses. Those papers are probably right in front of her too!"

"Ugh... Fine I'm on my way!" Teony groaned scratching her head.

"Sorry freshman, I'm a teacher's aid and I need to help my teach' right now." Teony said with a smile as she turned around and chased after the teacher who arrived to get her.

Dang it! I was about to get my first friend too! I felt a whole new weird realizing that everyone had a group friends but me.. Am I really that lonely?
