Chapter two
My heart thumped rapidly in my chest . I closed my eyes, counted to ten then opended the door and stepped in.
The moment I stepped in the room fell silent. I felt eyes boring into me.
Searching me for something.
Then the whispers began. I had hoped there would be a teacher in here but there wasnt.
"You new here, like Glasgow I know you new at this school, so yea are you new to Glasgow or were you like a bad ass and got like sent away"A guy said from the back.
I didn't know what to say and I bit my lip nervously. I wasn't planning on sharing my life story with these people.
I was about to answer when some other dude said
"Stop Archie, seriously. You could just welcome her nicely instead of interrogating her" the 'dude' looked towards me and smiled.
I tried to smile back but I just couldn't get myself to, not on a day like this.
"O sticking up for the new girl are we" Archie said.
"Yes..." he began, then the door suddenly swung open nearly hitting me.
A lady enterded the class room.
She had blonde hair and was short and plump. She had a pair of glasses resting on her nose.
She looked around the room. Then she looked at the door, where I stood.
"o there you are"The lady said to me.
"Class this is Cleo Edwards" She announced.
She looked across the room to Archie.
"I don't know why you find that so funny, Archie" she scowled at him.
I looked in Archie's direction and caught his eye.
He smirked at me.
I quickly turned away.
"Go and sit down"She demanded me.
I looked at my options.
A guy picking his nose in the front row, a girl who looked like she might kill you if you look at her to long or the 'dude' who had stuck up for me.
I picked up my brand new Nike bag and headed to the seat next to the guy who had stuck up for me.
"Can I sit here"I asked him quietly.
"yea.. I mean yea sit down"He told me.
I nodded at him and smiled.
I sat Down and got my pencil case and opended it.
While the teacher ranted on about Wars with France, which I really didn't give a shit about. I looked around the room.
I decided to put people into groups, it would be easier to remember them that way.
In the back row were four girls, all looking like those typical 'dolls'.
The 'Goths', the girl who looks like she might kill me.
My creative thinking was interrupted by the 'dude'.
"I'm callum by the way"He whispered to me.
"I'm Atalanta"I only realised after the words left my mouth that I had just got myself a tease for the rest of my life at this school.
Great just great.
"Wait I thought.." he began
"Callum Campbell-smith stop talking, you to Cleo"she shouted at as.
She shook her head in annoyance and then carried on with the lesson
"anyway,now we look at the campaign of Edward the th..."I tuned out and stared at the book in front of me.
I felt a nudge and callum pushed a small piece of paper in front of me. I.scrunched up my eyes so I could read it.
I thought your name was Cleo...?
I grabbed a pencil from my pencil case and started to write.
My actual name is Atalanta my mother and
I gulped before writting the rest.
and father decided to call me after a Roman goddess. I just get bullied about it and so I put my name down as Cleo.
I nudged callum and pushed the paper back to him.
He read it and wrote something and handed it to me.
That's a beautiful name
I looked at him and smiled. I mouthed the words thank you to him.
He nodded in reply.
Did he really say my name was beautiful whats up with his head maybe he got dropped as a baby.
I looked down at the piece of paper, yep he defintly said it, well wrote it,and yep he was defiantly dropped on the head when he was a baby.
