*Anthony's P.O.V*
Today was the day. I was going to a new school. I didn't know what to do or how to act. I lived in the same place all my life and I was a bit worried. What if I make a fool of myself on the first day? What if somehow everyone just hated me for no reason? I shook the bad thoughts out of my head and put on my beloved Mario hat. That was one thing I didn't care if I got made fun of wearing it. I loved it so much I almost wore it all the time. I wanted to leave early so if I wouldn't be late on the first day of school. I slowly walked up into the high school building and found the office.
"Uhh, hi, I'm the new kid Anthony.." I said nervously.
"Hello Anthony nice to meet you. Just follow me I will show you around." The office lady told me.
"Oh by the way Anthony, you can't wear that hat."
"Why not?" I asked.
"Against school rules." She told me.
I was a little bumed out by that but continued walking behind her. She showed me around the school and to my first class. I entered the classroom and the teacher told me to come to the front of the classroom.
"Class, this is Anthony our new student."
"Hello guys, nice to meet you." I said to the class quietly.
As soon as I finished saying that, I looked up at made eye contact with a boy by one of the windows. We stared for a minute until he broke it off by looking away. I immediately looked away after he did and slowly walked to my seat. I was on the other side of the room from the boy but the girl next to me was nice to me. I found out her name was Michelle. Halfway through the period I looked a the boy again but he didn't look back at me. "He's cute." I thought. "Wait what? Did I just say that in my head?" I was so confused. I didn't know what he thought of me. He probably thought I was weird but who knows. When the class bell rang the boy ran out of the room before I even got up.
At lunch time Michelle let me sit at her table. I was glad that I didn't have to sit alone. I didn't see him at the cafeteria at all.
"His name is Steven."
"What?" I replied a bit confused
"That boy you were staring at in class today."
"Was it really that noticeable?"
"Yeah dude." She casually said.
"Why isn't he at lunch?" I asked her.
"He's a bit of a loner. He mostly get picked on by the kids here. I've invited him to sit here with us a bunch of times but he always says no."
"oh." I replied shortly.
I hung out with Michelle and her friends during lunch and tried not to look at Steven during class. Finally the bell rang and everyone jumped out of their seats and through the door. I found Steven by his locker.
"Uhh, Hi I-"
He slammed his locker and ran down the hall. I didn't know what to do. I just walked home surrounded by thoughts. Why is he running away? Did I scare him somehow? With those thoughts I finally got home and fell asleep.
(Ik it's short but I will make the other chapters longer.) (Will try to work on this as much as I can.)
