Kaydence's POV
I nervously looked through the car window as we passed different businesses and weird street signs...well for me at least. I was nervous as hell. Today would be my first day at a new school...in an entirely new country. I was trying not to freak out...but what if everyone thinks I'm weird? Or makes fun of my accent? What if I don't make any friends? What if I don't adapt well to the curriculum? All these thoughts flooded my mind.
I suddenly felt the car come to a stop. I felt my mother teacher over and place hand on my leg.
"It's going to be fine, honey. I really think you'll love it here." She said with a comforting smile.
I was nervous as hell, this sure wasn't Texas.
"I just don't know why dad had to accept this job. What was wrong with the one he had? I loved Austin." I pleaded with my mother.
I wasn't very excited about the move at all. It's not that I wasn't excited to be at a new country and experience new cultures...but I had become so accustom to my life in Austin. This was definitely a big change for me. I didn't have many friends back home, I mean I had a few, but none I really cared about leaving, I was hoping for a fresh start here.
"You're going to be fine. Have a great day ,sweetheart. I'll pick you up after school"
And with that I stepped out of the car and began my new journey. I looked at the sign on the front of the building,
Norwest Christian College
I walked toward the front law and decided to suck it up and make the best of it.
After making it through the front doors, I decided to go ahead and look for my first class before the bell rang. I nervously looked at the piece of paper schedule that I was handed yesterday after my meeting with the principal. Room 103. As I nervously make my way down the hallway I began looking at each doors room numbers, obviously someone noticed how truly lost I was because it was that moment when I felt someone tap on the back of my shoulder.
I immediately jumped, dropping my books.
"Ahh, oh my gosh, you scared me" I said before even looking up at the stranger, pinking up my books and then slowly looking at the figure standing above me.
He offered me a hand and I grabbed it as he pulled me up.
"I'm Calum" the boy said.
I noticed his accent and I smiled.
"Holy crap, you have an accent"
I said, soon realized I sounded like an idiot since he had an Australian accent...and I was in Australia after all.
"Actually, I would say you're the one with the accent" he laughed
He was right, I had a typical southern accent.
"I'm Kaydence" I say as I offered my hand.
He took it and shook it without hesitation.
"Nice to meet you Kaydence. I'm assuming you're new?"
"Did the hopelessly lost act give it away?" I laugh.
"Nah, just I would've noticed someone as beautiful as you here before"
I immediately started turn red as a ripe tomato.
I lightly looked down and smiled, pushing a strand of my hair back as I did.
"Well thank you"
"What year are you?" The small tan boy asked
"Year 10" I say
"Oh neat, so am I" I offers
"Who is your first period?"
"Ugh" I say looking at my schedule "Mrs. Wilcox"
"Well Mrs. Wilcox's room is right down this hall to the left" he says gesturing with his hand
"Thanks" I smile
"No problem" I he says
We both look up at the bell as it rings
"Well maybe I'll see you around " I say as I go to turn around and head towards my first class
"Wait, Kaydence" I hear as I turn around to around to look back - "if you would like, you can sit with me and a friend of mine at lunch....ya know if you don't want to sit alone" he says shy, scratching the back of his neck.
I smile. "I look forward to it" I say heading toward my class so I wasn't late.
Less that 20 minutes in my new school and I had already made a friend.
Maybe.
***********************************************
Hi everyone! I really hope you enjoyed! If you didn't figure out from the date and story line, this is a flashback type thing. There will be flashback chapters throughout the story to help build the background that Kaydence has with the boys. I thought it would help explain the story better as well as make it more understandable when things start to happen. Wonder what that could be? 😏
Anyway, please leave your thoughts in the form of comments and vote.
Thank you all for reading.
Much love xx
