Fighting Back

A fresh start

Brianna's P.O.V

I take a deep breath as I walk through the gates of this new beginning. 

Welp, time for hell part 2. This should be fun...

Already expecting this to be bad, I make no attempt on making friends this round. I think I've been through enough. The campus was pretty big from what I was used to in elementary school. As I looked around I felt a familiar feeling I always get when I go somewhere new, I feel like I didn't belong, and it was true. For some reason, people were always prepared, but I... wasn't.

 It was like everyone was always already ready for this as if they have already been through 6th grade and all that. Or at least they acted like it. I get my schedule and get comfortable with the campus as I look for my classes. Awkward as I usually am, I, OF COURSE, LIKE ALWAYS!! Cannot find my class. Yup, classic Brianna *sigh*now I am going to have to deal with asking someone for help, then being late, then have everyone stare at me and judge as I walk in the class. 

Great...

she looks friendly... um do something, ask her for help!

Um, excuse me...

Friendly girl: Uh... yeah?... I mean, um... Yes?

Me: um... I...uh do you know where room 65 is at.

Friendly girl: oh, you're lost too... 6th grade?

Me: um yeah... *I say looking down at the ground bending the corner of me schedule*

Friendly girl: um.. follow me, my class is room 64 so we should be in the same area.

I follow silently behind her as I subconsciously keep bending the corner of my schedule out of nervousness.

stop doing that you idiot, it makes you look super awkward. do you want friends or not?! 

not really... but I can't help it.

just stop doing that, Jesus christ

she turned to me excited and full of life when she saw where our classes were. Who was this girl? why did she go from, a girl who was just like me... to some peppy happy girl that acted like who used to be me... I like her.. I want her to be my friend.

Friendly girl: Oh! they're over here! C'mon! uh... wait um what was your name again? I don't think you told me.

Me: Oh.. yeah umm my name is Brianna... um, yours?

Friendly girl: Brianna... I like that name. My name is Josephine. C'mon Bre let's get to class already.

Did she call me Bre? I like that. Well, you never had a nickname cause you've never had friends. Loser. Shut up. 

We walk closer to the classrooms as were about to part ways to go to our own classes. Before I go up to my classroom she stops me.

Josephine: Hey Bre.

Me: Yeah?

Josephine: I'll see you at break?

Me: Oh, um yeah... yes! for sure I'll wait for you outside your class? 

Josephine: yeah. see ya Bre! 

Me: Uh see you!

A hopeful smile formed on my face. "This place might not be so bad after all..."
