Time. Midnight.

Chapter 2

School wasn't that far down the road. A ten minute walk. We only walked when it was sunny, like today, otherwise we would have caught the bus.

I had to double take when i reached the front of the school, the grass was a healthy green, a board infront of the school asured me i was at the right place because it read 'Chance High School'. Me and Taylor both looked at eachother and whisperd "Whoa."

It made us both laugh when the way we said it at the same time, so we just carried on walking until we saw a group of our friends and we went to join the on the benches. About ten hugs and Hi's later the bell rang and we were about to make our way to home room when I started panicking and feeling my pockets, I even emptied out the whole contense of my bag when I remembered I had forgotten the information I would need for my first day on my bedside table. "Oh no!" I gasped.

"What?" Taylor asked when she realised I'd stopped.

"I've left everything at home on my bedside table, I'm gonna have to go to the reception and explain so they can tell me what i can do." I sighed.

"Okay, do you want me to come with you?"

"No, It's Okay thanks, you don't wanna be late on your first day, I'll meet ya at the benches at break."

"Okay, thanks, if you're sure. Good luck"

"Thanks. Bye."

We went our seperate ways when we walked through the big glass front doors.

I eventually found my way to the reception and walked towards the desk, there I found a woman, who looked like she could help me, she was an oldish woman, aged around 45-50. She was quite small, had short, grey, curly hair. She wore a white shirt with purple polka dots on and a black skirt with black shiney heels, she also wore glasses, jam jar frames and a peice of string attached to either side of her frames that went around her neck so she wouldn't lose them. I giggled to myself.

I looked around the front desk and found a name tag, that wrote 'Mrs. Stack'. I guess that's her. Well here goes nothing.

As I walked towards her, she saw me coming and smiled. At that moment i reached her and she greeted me with "Good morning, I'm Mrs. Stack, what can I help you with?"

I answered her with "Morning, my name is Cammi Hanson and i've got a problem"

"What's up dear? I'm here to help"

I explained to her how I left all the information i need at home and I had no idea what i was going to do next, but she reassured me that it's all going to be fine. She printed off my time table and gave me a map, I must of looked confused because she smiled at me and then explained everything to me again and i assured her i understood it all."Thank you," I said as I grabbed my time table and map before i turned to go, "So is this where i go?" I asked as i pointed to my home room on the map.

She pulled her glasses back onto get face and looked at were i was pointing, "Yes dear, have a nice day"

"Thanks" i smiled, and turned around to walk out, when suddenly i bumped face first into what felt like a concrete wall, ow, i took a step back and looked up to see an angel like figure staring down at me with his brown eyes, smiling. I hadn't realised someone was standing behind me. I felt like such a dweeb and gasped "Sorry." I felt my face heat up, nooo, my face was as red as a tomato in less than ten seconds. He then said "It's fine, forget about it" and started laughing.

I turned around quickly and walked out looking back more than i should, to only go more red when i found him looking back at me. I found my way to home room silently and when I walked in the room was full and everyone looked at me, god it was creepy, i walked towards the teacher and explained to him - Mr. Ray - what had happened and he showed me to an empty desk at the back of the room and i took my place. On my way down i spotted some of my old friends and they waved at me.

As i sat down someone walked in, the last person i would have expected.
