The Darkest Angel (Sequel To The Dark Side)

First School Day

Melanie's POV (6 years old)

Finally! Today is the day when I start school! I am a little late because it's October and children start school in September, but I don't care. Because I don't have to stay at home with Mom!

So I woke up at 6:00am and got dressed up really quickly into a black dress, it was my favorite. I got my bag, with all the books that I needed, pencilcase, drawbook. I had a red bag and I was thinking about should I bring Fanny or not. I put her deep in my bag.

I was ready to go! I went down to put my sandwich and drink but there was nothing for me.

"Mom, where is my food? " I asked.

"Ohh darling, there is no food for you, you will have lunch later at home. " She said.

But my smile didn't fade away from that. I stole a piece of bread while Mom was helping Jen. I stole a few cheese and butter. I hid these in my backpack.

It was about 7:30am, which meant we are going to school!

Jen was also ready to go but she was in 3th grade and I was in the first. I got my little shoes on and I was about to sit into the Limousin, but Jen said...

"Uhh, why are sitting here? " She said.

"Because I am going to school with you. " I said.

"Didn't Mom tell you that you walk to school? It is really far away. 10 minutes by car and 20 minutes by walking. So bye bitch! " She closed the door in front of me and the driver drove away.

"Let's walk, shall we!" I said and I started to walk.

I was looking at the grey sky and I felt water on me. It started to rain. I was holding my bag in my hands to cover my head at least.

After a few minutes it stopped and I realized that I arrived at school. Kids were going in and out. I was walking and a few kids were staring at me. I went to the principal office to say I am here. Mom gave me a paper to give it to the principal.

It was a woman. Her name was Helen. I knocked twice on the door and I entered.

"G-Good morning Miss. " I greeted.

"Good morning. What can I do for you?" She said.

"I am t-the new student. " I said shyly.

"Oh yeah. Melanie Leyva, right? " She said.

"Yes. " I nodded.

"Okay. You brought a paper about you right? " She asked.

"Yes. " I gave it to her.

After 5 minutes she stood up and shook my hand. We went out of her office and she showed me the school.

"We have cabinets here. Everyone has one. Here is yours. " She said and gave me my key.

Then I turned my head right and I saw a boy. He had black hair, red eyes and pale skin. He looked at me. I felt two things.

I was blushing and I felt something happen with my eyes.

Then I heard there was a fight somewhere near. The principal ran there and I followed her. There was a crowd and in the middle of it, there were two boys. The first grader had green hair, the fifth grader had brown hair. They were fighting over chocolate milk.

"C'mon dude, fight me! " The green haired boy said.

"Punch me! " The other one said.

The green haired boy punched the other boy's face so he fell on the ground.
