Clara's POV

As English ended everyone stormed out of the classroom, to be honest I was a bit embarrassed. I never got a comment in class for talking before. Honestly, I just don't talk in class but here no one seems to bother following the rules. They're used to it.

"Hey!" I hear someone yell but I don't look back, it's probably not directed at me "Clara!" Okay...it's at me. I look back to see Ruby approaching me.

"Hi." I smile kindly. I'm not the easiest person to start a conversation with.

"Where were you going?" she asks me. Good question where was I going? I don't even know where my next class is.

"I don't know..." I shrug feeling stupid. I hated the feeling of not knowing something.

"Follow me, I know where it is." She took my arm.

"H-how do you know what my next class is?" I question, curious and slightly worried.

"Miss Persly informed me that we have all our classes together." She said enthusiastically. I nod and follow her; I don't know which subject we're having though.

"Ruby?" I ask and she nods "what do we have actually?"

"Maths." she sighs not so enthusiast like before. She opens a door and we walk in "where do you want to sit?"

"Uh... in the front?" I said as I saw the same blonde guy from our previous class sitting in the front too. Wait, why do I want to....? Never mind.

"Uh... okay..." I know she isn't completely agreeing with me.

"Don't you like maths?" I ask while getting out my books.

"Not really. I'm more for the languages. What about you?" She asks twirling her hair.

"Well, I'm more for science and maths." We talked a bit while we waited for the teacher.

"Hey new one!" some guy in the back shouted, it's at me so I turn around "I didn't know this school had an uniform." He, his mates and a few girls laughed. I'm not wearing a uniform. I'm just wearing a dark blue skater skirt, and a white buttoned up shirt tucked in the skirt.

"Ignore them." Ruby said. I wasn't even going to answer. I'm too shy. "That's Bill. He really thinks he's the boss." She rolled her eyes.

"Silence!" someone suddenly yells, the teacher enters the room. "As you know I'm Mrs. Brinston."

"No ma'am. There's a new one in the front with the stupid glasses." Bill said. Knowing he means me, I push my glasses up. For the rest of the time we had to make exercises and give them in when we were ready. What surprised me was that no one had said his name, the blonde guy with the big glasses. He didn't talk, he barely moved. I wonder what his name is.

"Thanks, Niall." Mrs. Brinston said. Who's Niall? I never heard that name here. I looked up to see the blonde guy. He gave his paper in before me, no one ever gave their paper in before me. At my old school, I always finished assignments first. Most people would feel competitive about something like that. Not me, it made me like him, I smiled to myself.

"Clara, no daydreaming!" Mrs.Brinston clamored me back to reality.

"I'm sorry ma'am." I looked down, that's the second time I got a comment from a teacher "but I'm done." I gave her my paper. I sat back down slowly, smoothing my skirt down over my legs.

"Ah finally lunch!" Ruby exclaimed as we got into the cafeteria. "I'm going to grab some food. You want some?"
