         My little alarm clock rests on my new desk tick-tocking away. As I lay there in bed, half dead, sometimes wishing maybe that I was. I can feel the morning crawl into my house. The smell of fresh coffee creeps under my door, honestly I hate coffee but the smell ain't half bad. I contort myself into a comfortable knotty ball under the bedsheets and bury my head into the broken-in old feather pillow searching for warmth and what remains of my last dream. BRRRIIIIAAAAAANNNNGGGGG, my brain is electrocuted to life by the loud little alarm clock. As the bells scream out in alarm. It hops and jumps on its stubby little legs to tell me it's time to go. As the clock stops ringing I reach out from my covers and pull the sheets off my once warm body. I can't believe my first day of school is today. I have only been here for 2 days and I'm already going back to hell.

                  Getting out of bed, walking slowly down the carpeted stairs which tickled my tired feet a little, while also rubbing the sleep out of my eyes. I went to the bathroom door, flicked the light on, and went on with my daily morning routine. First, make sure my hair looks fabulous enough to flip when everI say something clever, next try to make my skin look flawless, then make my eyes pop with some fake lashes, lastly do all the hygienic stuff so I don't smell like road kill. I skip out of the bathroom feeling beautiful right back into my bedroom to pick out some clothes and head out the door. "Carly let's go!" yelled Nick since he is lucky enough to be old enough to drive. Stumbling out of my room trying to force my heels into my shoes, I pull my backpack off the counter and drag myself out the house. Nick honks the horn of the car as I rush to the car door. The car started moving backward before I could reach for the door handle. I screech out and run after the car down the driveway, just in time I hop into the car and greet a rude brother dying of laughter. I smack his shoulder and glare at him, which did not stop him from laughing. Rolling my eyes I crank up the music and lean back against the chair.

             5 silent minutes past until Nick asks if I'm nervous for school. Shaking my head I say," Yeah, I guess I am. I just hope I can fit in. I mean i'm from a small town in Alaska in a tiny school, and now i'm in one of the biggest cities in America going to a HUGE school." "Well you are a gorgeous girl Carly, people are attracted to looks so I think you will have no problem making friends. Plus you are really nice!" said Nick in a reassuring voice. "Most of the time at least" added Nick under his breath. "Hey! You aren't to nice either sometimes too!" " I was kidding Carly" he laughed and slugged me in the shoulder. "Ouch!" I said under my breath while rubbing my shoulder. "Well we're here..." he said while pulling into the school parking lot. " Alright well thanks, I'll see you at lunch if I make no new friends." I said while unbuckling my seatbelt. "Who said you can sit with me at lunch!?" "Nobody did." I said with a shrug. Without another word I opened the door and hoped out of the car onto the asphalt.

       I made my way to the school and noticed that the lockers were outside the building! Well I've never seen that before! I wandered around for a bit with no success of finding my locker. When I gave up I headed inside to go exploring some more. Inside the school building was really cold compared to outside, it feels more like home. Okay well since I couldn't find my locker....I'm just going to go to class. I took off my bag and pulled out a small slip of paper. Alright, I have English first period in room 124. Easy! I can probably find it! Let's see.... I'm by room....4!? Okay nevermind I'm lost, I guess I'll just ask someone. Alright Carly look for friendly people.....OH! They look nice! I hurry over to a group of blonde girls standing in a circle and tapped one of them on the shoulder. The girl turns around and the rest of the group fell silent,"Yes?" "Hey! I was hoping you could tell me where to find room 124? " I said ending with my cutest smile. "Oh yeah!" "You go straight down the hall then turn right up your ass." The whole group started laughing while the girl just stood there smirking at me. 

          Dumb founded I just stood there silently. A different girl from the group walked up to me and made a cheesy sad face and said, "awee are you going to cry?" I raised and eyebrow and laughed. "Please, why in hell would I cry over that." I retorted trying to act tuff. She crossed her arms and said," its true that was pretty lame, Samantha is still learning." "Learning what? How to be a bitch?" The girl apparently named Samantha crinkled her nose and glared into my soul. Jessica smiled and said," hmmmm I like you. You should hang out with us more, where was that class you wanted to go again?" 

         I took a step back from her because she was awfully close to my face. " Yeaaaaa no I'm good. I would prefer to not to be know as an asshole like you are." Taken a back she snapped back," well that's to bad. You really could have been useful for me." I laughed and asked, "Useful for what? Helping you get some D from all the guys around here? That's what your group is all about right?" Her faced flushed red and she clenched her teeth. I stepped up really close to her face and smirked letting the power go to my head. "That's the truth right? I mean I've only known you for like 5 minutes and I already know your little game." Her eyes flared with fire while the rest of the girls slowly started to back up. "You will be sorry that you ever spoke to me." She said grinding her teeth. Out of nowhere her hand slaps across my face causing me to to yell out in pain. Everyone in the hallway froze and starred at us. 

       I staggered backward clutching my cheek with my eyes watering. She pointed and laughed at me. SHE LAUGHED AT ME. I pried my hand off my face and saw blood, that big ass ring on her finger must of cut my cheek. Infuriated I lunged forward to tackle her but someone grabbed my wrists and yanked me backwards. "Woahhhhh!" A tall dark brown girl stepped forward between me and Jessica. " Calm your asses down! It's the poor girls first day!" "She deserved it! She basically called me a slut!!!" The tall girl looked back at me and shook her head in disapproval. "Alright Jessica we all know the you're the shit here but god damn you need to chill!" She looked around and everyone was staring at us. "You all can leave now show's over!" Everyone looked down and hurried away. 

         The tall girl came towards me and grabbed my arm, she pulled me into the crowds of people. Weaving through the crowds she said, " I'm impressed. It takes a lot of courage to stand up to Jessica and her followers." "Oh thanks... It wasn't to hard..." suddenly we stopped in front of a classroom and smashed into her back. She chuckled and said," well this is your class room 124! Try to stay out of trouble. Good luck!" She turned away but quickly added, " oh! By the way I'm Hadley! Hadley Weathers" Before I could respond she disappeared into the hall. Well that was interesting....
