I could hear the distant beeping of my alarm clock. It only meant one thing. This was the day.. my first day at school. I didn't want to go, for it meant that I'd officially left my old life and my old friends back in Denmark behind. I stuffed my face back in my pillows but the glorious smell of eggs and bacon awoke me. Mum doesn't usually make a breakfast this amazing, but it's a 'special' occasion. I ran downstairs, ecstatic to eat the marvelous food.
"Hey mum!" I greeted.
"Good morning Signe!" She was full of energy. It seemed she was more excited for my first day than I was. "Dig in honey! This is all for you." We smiled at each other and we gobbled up like wild pigs. I'm actually relatively excited now. After breakfast, I went and got ready. I brushed my teeth, my hair, and tried to decide what to wear.

Whooo Time Skip (I'm the time lord!!)

After about 20 minutes of tearing apart my closet and dresser, I finally decided on black tights with a baby-pink miniskirt over them, a black and white striped shirt, and a gold bow necklace I got as a birthday gift from mum long ago.
"HUN! YOU'RE GONNA MISS YOUR BUS!"
"SORRY MUM! I'M COMING!" I raced downstairs and gave my mom a kiss. "I love you mum."
"I love you too, my beautiful girl." I smiled and walked to the bus stop. While I was walking, my slight excitement immediately disappeared and a feeling of utter nervousness filled its spot. Tons of thoughts ran through my head, 'What if I don't make any friends?' 'What if I'm gonna be a loner for the rest of the school year?' Those thoughts floated to the back of my head as I approached two guys with brightly colored hair. One with red hair and one with green hair. I got a slight look at thier faces. The green haired one was kinda cute.. 'Snap out of it Signe!' I eavesdropped on their conversation.
"God when will this bus come? We've been waiting her for like 10 minutes!" The red haired one said. He had a deep voice.
"Is there anyone you're excited to see?" The green haired one said while raising his eyebrows. "A certain person? A girl? Hmm?" He said teasingly.
"WHAT?! NO!" He punched the green haired guy in the arm. He sounded flustered.
"Suuure." He laughed.
"I swear to god, if you weren't my best friend, I'd kill you right now."
"I know. Ooh the bus is here!" The bus pulled up and we got in. I was still head-over-heals for that green haired guy so I tripped on the way up.
"Ugh," Of course this happened to me. I looked up to see a hand. I held it and it pulled me up. I dusted myself off and looked up. "Thank yo-" it was the green haired guy! I felt a blush creep up my face but I pushed it back.
"Err, you're welcome." He replied awkwardly.
"Great job Signe. You blew it." I murmured under my breath.
"Did you say something?" He asked me.
"Uhhh no! Nothing!" I blushed again but couldn't push it down this time.
"I SHIP IT" the red haired guy yelled from the back of the bus. "Hurry up you two love birds!" The green haired guy rolled his beautiful ocean blue eyes and yelled back,
"Shut up Mark! Sorry about him. You can sit with us. You look new."
"I-I am." I replied. We walked to the back of the bus where Mark was sitting. The green haired guy sat next to him and I sat next to the green haired guy.
"Hi I'm Mark!" He put out his hand.
"Hi Mark, I'm Signe." I shook his hand.
"This is your boyfriend, Jack." He pointed to the green haired guy.
"Shut up Mark!" He punched Mark in the arm, "you can also call me Sean."
"Well, nice to meet you Sean."
"Hey, we should compare our timetables." Mark suggested.
"Okay." We all pulled out our schedules and compared them. Mark had every class with Sean and I had English, Reading, Math, Science, and P.E. with them.
"Woah, we have a lot of classes together! I guess you'll have to be stuck with us for a long time!" Sean chuckled.
"You should be happy about that, right Jack?" Mark teased.
"Mark. Shut the fuck up." we all laughed. Mark and Sean seem really kind and funny. Those bad thoughts from earlier disappear completely. I this will actually be a good year..
