2 | the flower of anger

The piercing sound of the alarm clock woke the dark-haired beauty up. A groan escaped her mouth as she rolled over on her plush bed, tapping her bedside table until her fingers brushed against the familiar plastic that irked her off. Pressing down on the button, the beeping stopped abruptly.

Her eyes fluttered open, adjusting to the sunlight that poured into the beige coloured room. A smile flourished on her face as she stared at the galaxy themed ceiling that was custom made for her. The lights were switched on along with the neon sign that said 'dreamer' in lavender. Alessandra felt her body relax as she gazed at the familiar room.

Removing the blanket from her body, Alessandra stood up, stretching her arms and legs. She walked over to her bathroom and started her morning routine: taking a shower, brushing her hair and teeth before going to her closet and putting on her new clothes. Ever since her breakup, she changed everything. Her lifestyle and herself. She was no longer the happy and preppy girl everyone knew.

Grabbing the first good-looking thing from her closet, the brunette slipped it on and left her room, making herself some breakfast before slipping into her car outside and speeding down the grey road to Forks High. Alessandra's parents moved her to Forks after her boyfriend broke up with her. They thought a new scenery would be better for their beloved daughter.

They bought her a big house because they knew that they would come to visit and they would all need space to stay in, especially her younger siblings. They hated sharing their own room, so Alessandra made sure their rooms fit their unique personality.

Once the brunette got to her school, she quickly parked her car next to a rusty old truck, one that made her gag at its look. She got out of the car and smirked as all eyes landed on her. Confidence emitted off of her in waves as she walked into the school. The sound of her heels echoed throughout the halls, her smirking growing as she gained more attention from the students at Forks.

Going to her designated locker, she entered the code and saw her books and everything inside. She took out her schedule and looked it over, memorising all of it in just a glance. Photographic memory. With that, she took her books for the first four periods which was two lessons. Ap Math and Ap English Literature.

Glancing down at the map, Alessandra realised she didn't understand where anything was on it. It was like some kid drew a drawing and pretended that it was the map of Forks High. The brunette spotted a girl with glasses and walked towards her.

"Hi. I'm Alessandra," She introduced herself with a kind smile. "Could you help me find my homeroom please?" The Asian looking girl looked up and nodded, her smile on her lips.

"Sure. You must be the new girl everyone's been talking about. I'm Angela." She introduced. Alessandra let out a smile and handed the said girl her schedule to see what lessons she had. Angela's smiled widened as she scanned through it.

"We have homeroom and the first lessons for every day together since math and English don't change as well as history, but I do biology so I won't be able to take you there." She was cut off by the second bell and quickly ushered her to their homeroom. The duo entered, and all the attention was on them.

"Miss Weber, why are you so late?" Angela looked shocked and embarrassed as the teacher called out on her. Glaring at the teacher, Alessandra took a step forward as she realised that this teacher was stuck up because she thought she had power over everyone.

"She was helping me get to class, Miss..." She trailed off.

"Mrs Tanner." She said. Alessandra raised her eyebrows and let out an amused chuckle.

"You're married?" She questioned as the teacher narrowed her eyes at the new student. "Who would want to marry a stuck up bitch who picks on innocent people? No wonder no one likes you." The class looked shocked as silence was heard. Alessandra flashed her a sweet smile before sitting down at the back, placing her feet on the table and filing her nails with a filer from her pocket. The silence continued to linger in the air until the bell rang, slicing through it.

"Finally," Alessandra muttered before she gave a salute to Mrs Tanner and walked out with Angela.

"I can't believe you did that!" Angela exclaimed, shocked. Alessandra let out a chuckle as they walked to English. The younger girl continued to ramble on about how no one ever stood up to her and how their homeroom teacher was the sister of the principal, but the new girl just ignored it and entered her next class.

Alessandra sat at a desk at the back and resumed the same position she did in homeroom. As the teacher came in, he didn't seem to notice or care about the new kid in his class since he didn't ask her to stand up and all. But she thought to soon.

"I believe we have a new student here today." Alessandra let out a silent groan. "f you could stand up and introduce yourself, that would be great." She rolled her eyes and removed her feet from the desk and stood up. All eyes were on her as she sighed.

"The names Alessandra Hill." The brunette introduced herself and was about to sit back down when the teacher motioned to continue. "I was previously from Miami, born and raised there. I live with my mum and two younger siblings. My favourite colour is purple and if you buy me pizza, you're my new favourite person. I'll love you forever." She said before sitting down. The teacher nodded before asking a question that had her slam her hands down on the table.

"What about your father?"

"That asshole can go burn in hell for all I care. After what he did, I never want to see him again because God help him if I do." Alessandra replied, anger coursing through her body as her eyes darkened a bit with anger. She leant back in her chair, and the teacher carried on teaching like nothing ever happened.
