Walk on the Beach - R5 Fanfic

Chapter 31

FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL - SENIOR YEAR

I had everything ready. My binders perfectly organized and color coded. Full supply of pencils and pens and every writing utensil you could possibly think of. I had my schedule memorized, teachers, classrooms, subjects. Everything was ready, that is, except for me. I don't really know what to expect. Surely about everyone had heard about me and Ross, I mean he is on every magazine cover right now. Would people care...or just ignore it? I have no clue what I'm in for, but I'm almost excited.

And yes, I am still super upset about leaving Ross. But I am getting sort of used to it. We talk a lot, on the phone. Face timing, skype, and everything else just to keep us connected. I love being able to talk to him...but the fact is - he is across the country. He is famous, signing autographs nearly everywhere he goes. People know him, and love him. I am Blair Lasko from Ohio. No one knows me. No one cares about me, except my friends and family. And I have to admit...I had only been with Ross for two weeks in person, and now another week by phone. How would I know if he would ever just leave me for someone more pretty and famous. I mean I trust him, but there is still that doubt in my mind that I could just be left in the dust.

But today I wanna try to focus on school. Making friends, and just getting along.

I woke up and grabbed my first day of school outfit. Black shirt with a floral skirt and flats. Straightened my hair and was ready to go. My mom had to take pictures before I could get in the car and drive off though. I let her take a few, but I got annoyed so just kinda left.

I also realized, while driving there, that my dad would return from where ever he had been traveling at. Which would be good. I know my mom had told him about me and Ross...but I haven't even talked to my dad since before Hermosa beach. Not talking to him seems rough..but he is gone all the time.

I got to the school, parking my car in the senior lot. I grabbed my bag and walked in, finding my locker. And it amazes me how Jenna finds me before I can even figure out where I'm going.

"Soo, how's it goin?" She asked super peppy.

"Good! So far." I laughed.

"We have been in this school for three years now, and I still can't figure out where classes are." She said then walked away, I assume to find her first class.

I figured out my backpack then went to my first class, which was science. I got there early, watching all of my classmates walk in. This was always scary to me, I would be stuck with this group of people morning for the rest of the year. And to my luck, Ashley Kolac walls in. Great, the most popular and annoying girl in my school, not to mention she is completely rude. This was the part that really got me scared, the classroom was almost empty still and Ashley sat down next to me. We had never been friends, actually, we had been enemies!

"Hi!" Ashley said to me in her high pitched preppy voice.

"Uh, hi?" I responded.

"How was your summer?"

"Good. You?" I didn't want to seem mean.

"Just good?" Oh, I see. Why didn't I figure this out when she sat down? She wants to know about my latest boyfriend.

"Yeah. How was your summer?" I said. She doesn't get to know anything about Ross, considering she has treated me like nothing forever.

"That's not what I heard." She let out a little laugh. The seats were almost full by now, I just ignored her after that. The bell rang and our teacher began taking roll call. "I heard you were with a certain famous someone." She whispered, so we wouldn't get yelled at.

"Blair?" My new teacher, Mrs. Day, called out.

"Here!" I shouted from across the room.

"Ross Lynch?" Ashley said still whispering to me.

"Look, we both know we have never been friends. And honestly, I'm sorry, but nothing can change that. So I don't think you really get the inside scoop on my personal life." I whispered back. Her sleek smile on her face went away. She turned away from me, and I smiled to myself.

We didn't talk for the rest of class, which was probably a good thing. I knew I made her angry, but too bad. I went normally to my next classes. No one else asked me about my summer, but I did get some stares. Other than that, everything went smoothly that day..except for lunch time. Lunch didn't go very well..
