Well it's March 11, my first day of school you should say. I really just don't want to go but since it's 'For a healthy mind in your teen years" (something that mom said that I don't care about) she wants me to go. I don't want to go to a school that has the top 10 highest education and one of the most top highest schools to go to, what if I mess up on the first day, or even worse, get a random ass nickname that I'm going to be stuck with for the rest of my year. Ok now I'm exaggerating. I just don't want to go....
Well today stars my first day of North Wood high. It's almost seems like a college but then it has the high school feel to me so I never mind. It has four floors and so many windows that you never miss light anywhere you walk. As I'm walking through the entrance I see a whole bunch of kids walking into the school and running up to friends and laughing about how the weekend was.
As I walk by I notice Alex and his friends and decided to keep walking up the steps until I heard him call me, I looked over and walked to him anyways because he yelled so loud it seemed like the whole entire campus was watching. 'Hey Lauren I didn't know you go here too,' Alex says as he secretly stands closer to me and wraps his arm around my waist, not having a care in the world who sees. 'Yeah umm, m-my mom transferred me here- a few weeks before we moved here,' I say trying not to sound as stupid as I look with a flushed face on as he trailed his hand up my shirt and back down. I could of sworn that someone would of spotted him by now but didn't. I slid an inch closer to Sam for him to stop so he at least didn't get in trouble and at that rate he sits right on the bench next to me, causally wrapping his arm on the bench side trying to do it again so that no one would notice. 'ALL STUDENTS PLEASE HEAD INSIDE FOR THE MORNING ANNOUNCEMENTS AND UPCOMING EVENTS FOR OUR SEMESTER,' the loudspeakers go as students walk in through the doors to our first class.
I go to the main office with Alex since he insisted on bringing me because I had about no clue as to where this school leads. The lady at the front desk goes into a whole bunch of papers until she found a folder with my name on the side. 'Lauren Elizabeth Carter right, 16, moved from San Francisco, California?' She says as she reads more of my information right in front of him, I cut her off saying yes, and she giving me a glare. Alex whispers something into my ear while she finds my schedule and key. 'I hope you know but I'm definitely moving to most of your classes,' he says with a wink. I knew he would do something so ridiculous as to want to move to my classes, but I don't really care, he moving into my classes doesn't really bother me so much, it's the why that's running through my head. Why is it that he wants to move to the same classes as me, even this. Why does he even want to help me, it's so weird.
After she gave me my stuff I walked over to my locker 'locker 236, locker 236, locker 236 got it,' I say as I try to remember the number even though it's on the key, I figured if I remembered it then Alex would leave me alone about it.
'Why are u repeating everything it's right on ur key,' he says as he watches me walk over to the locker and try to put most of my stuff in. '
'Because I don't want you to come over every single time and try to ask me why I forgot,' I say, trying to forget him and to just put my stuff in. Gosh he's gotten so talkative.
'So then can I walk you to our first class?' He says, leaning on my locker and staring at me. 'Uhh we have class together, what the hell,' I say, shocked that he does, but not as surprised as I was trying to check me schedule seeing if it was a lie.
'Stop checking because I'm lying, I have next class with you though,' he says as he closes my locker holding out math books. 'You have math, sorry,' he says.
After the office I go into math, it wasn't as a normal math room even looks like to my imagination, it's a cozy medium sized room with a whole bunch of students in lined rows, I looked around as everyone moved their eyes to me. 'Lauren Carter right?' The teacher says as he directs me between a girl with black hair and a boy with brown-blond hair. I had to say he looked pretty good, almost all these students looked good here.
I sit down where he placed me and they both stare at me like they haven't seen a human before, geez get a grip. I look into my textbook as class rolls by. After the bells rings for the next class, which I have with Alex, the boy next to me that class came over and gave me his number so we could talk. I had to say I was excited, not only he was cute but the fact he came to me and gave me his number in the first day was crazy.
When I made it to my next class, it was science, and to be honest, it wasn't my worst subject but it wasn't my favorite subject either, I just got everything right. As I'm walking into class to see the one and only, Alex Perry. He walks over to the same table as mine and sits right next to me. 'Hey Lauren what's up,' he says as he wraps his arm low around my waist. 'Nothing much but Alex-' I say and stop myself as I try to pay attention to what Mrs. Harris is writing on the board for the formula, while he trails his hand down my thigh and squeezes it a bit. I gasp and get annoyed that I'm gonna fail my first class because of him, so I slap him on the forehead and shove his hands away 'Alex that's not funny stop it,' I say as I continue writing. 'No fun,' he says, as he continues writing himself.
The classes later on weren't so bad, we have two activities and one special during our day so it doesn't make me fully bored, if I could switch many classes with Alex and his friends I would. I have classes with almost all of them, and mainly more with Alex and sometimes it's literally the best but then other times when he's around I just can't concentrate so I sit next to the girl and boy I met in class, Mary and Ashton. Ashton is a really cute guy and decided to hang out with me this weekend. When I went home with nothing in my bag I went upstairs and decided to finish off with the Chemistry homework we were sent off home to do, My mom walks in to go and check to see what's up 'Hey honey, you must of had a really good day today at school, I like to see that, ok well I'm going to head off and make something for dinner,' she says, as she walks out of the room and leaves me to finish my homework
That night I couldn't concentrate anything but sleep, I was so drained out of working that I fell asleep without having nothing after. I woke up to the sound of crickets in the night, it must of been like 2-3 in the morning because I had no clue it was still dark out. I went on my phone for a bit until I checked a unknown message on my phone 'I bet it's from Alex, forgot to add him,' I say as I check through others not knowing that there were more messages, from unknown numbers, 'What the hell, wh-.' The phone goes blank and I drop the phone quickly turning to my side trying to fall asleep again, trying not to think about what happened I think about other things until I fall into a deep sleep...
