Little pieces of rocks thudded against the bottom of the car making an awareness of nature flow through my mind. I was sitting in the back seat of my mothers car beside my brother, Jaxon. My head tirelessly rested against the glass of the window and observed the new surroundings. Twists and turns of houses I'll eventually learn passed until we arrived at our new house.
It was an average sized, two story house with two main doors, one being on the floor of the house and the other having two doors with a stone staircase. It was a light gray house with a black trim making it look very sophisticated. This was about the fifth or sixth time i was seeing the outside of the house and I was still amazed with what i saw. I use to live in Tacoma but now we live in a town about 30 minutes away from Seattle.
"Leileanna go up to your new room and start unpacking the last little bit of clothes you have." I obeyed and ran up the beige stairs and entered the door.
We have been settling in for the past few days and I had my room completely set. I have white Christmas lights set up on the wall of my room with some scenery pictures i took. I'm in love with photography, there's such a beauty about it that should be appreciated. When I first use to hang out with my few friends I would be taking pictures of the sky and the clouds and they always commented how "tumblr" my pictures were and stuff like that. I never took them to post really, probably 95% of my pictures have only been seen by me. I don't do it to look cool i do it because it's something that interests me.
After finally unpacking everything, I curled up in my bed with my purple silk sheets and white comforter. It was really cold since it was winter and my mind started to drift off to starting school. I hope the kids are nice at this new high school. I mean, some random sophomore coming after winter break would be weird right? I don't know. I don't think so at least. Maybe the students won't even notice me. I'm just another girl. All the thoughts and moving made me so tired that my mind drifted to a dreamless sleep

My palms started to sweat, even though it was 39 degrees outside, because of the nervousness bubbling in my stomach. I looked at my thighs and frowned. I wasn't always the skinniest girl ever. I have really big thighs but i had curves and my stomach was somewhat flat. I still had rolls when I sat down and i had stretch marks on my hips. I love my body though it's just that I got made fun of in elementary school for it. But when i went to middle school some people saw it as an attraction so i felt better.
I grabbed my black backpack and kissed my mom on the cheek. "Bye mom, love you," Jaxon and I said together. It was a habit ever since elementary that'd we say that to her before we went to school.
"Bye kids have fun on your first day!" I rolled my eyes and huffed looking at the school before me.
"Ya know it's not gonna be that bad." Jaxon looked at me with his green and brown eyes smiling and putting his arm around my shoulder. I smiled back hugged him and i didn't want him to leave my side.
"I know Jax I know." Jax was his nickname since he preferred it over Jaxon.
I walked into the building gathering some stares of confusion. I quickly moved the dark brown hair tucked behind my ear to fall in front of my face. I walked with a greater speed to the office to get my schedule seeing a few kids in line to speak to the lady sitting there. I fiddled with the sleeves of my jacket until I got to the front of the line.
I smiled softly at the lady and i checked the tag presented on the desk. "Hi Mrs. Mills I'm Leileanna Reyes and I just moved here so i came to get my schedule." I looked in her eyes attentively and a bright smile appeared on her face as she looked down at her desk where a bunch of scattered papers were placed.
She rummaged around and held out a paper to me. "There you go Leileanna. It was a pleasure to meet you." I smiled in return and thanked her.
As i was walking out of the office I noticed a boy sitting in a chair that quickly glanced at me making me look at him. We made a second of eye contact but I broke it to go out of the office to go to my first class. The school only had sports lockers,making the hallways a bit bigger. I found my first class, calculus, and I got overwhelmed with the people looking at me. The teachers name was Mr. HM and i introduced myself to him. I think I was the only sophomore in this class so I just took a seat where no one was sitting. I skipped Algebra 2 so that's why I was in calc early. I already studied most of the lesson the teacher was teaching so I just started the work on the board and finished it 10 minutes before class was over. Not wanting to be completely bored for the last minutes I just worked on the next lesson so I could be ahead.
"Alright class pack up your things and thanks to our new student Leileanna, I'm not giving you any homework." He gestured to me as he said my name and I blushed from everyone's eyes on me. the guy next to me high fived me and I giggled. The bell rang and everyone rushed out of the room.
"Hey Leileanna!" I turned around and I saw the guy who high fived me. He had really nice blue eyes. "I'm Nate."
"Hi Nate, thanks for giving me that high five back there."
"No problem. I mean we got no homework on a Monday. Bless your soul." I laughed at him and he joined me. "So what's you're next class?" he asked.
"Uhmmm it's English with Ms. Blue."
"Damn you're getting all the good teachers," Nate said looking at my schedule. "Okay we have 1st, and 6th together which is photography."
"Great! I'll see you in 6th then!" I smiled and headed off to 2nd period.
