Through My Eyes

Chapter-1

Same routine every day. Get up early, get ready for school, go to school, come back home, eat, shower, sleep. Every single day. I really don't have friends, yeah I talk to people at school but not enough to call them friend. I like having alone time.

Usually teenagers my age are going through that stage of parting out with friends and getting waisted. I stay away from those groups.

I put in the last few bobby-pins in my hair before heading out. It's a cold January day. It's Monday, which everyone seems to hate for some reason. I put on my jacket and head out of my room.

I walk down the hall to my parents room. I knock a few times

"Come in" I heard my mothers voice. I open and I see her getting ready for work. I'm sure my dad already left.

"Wow, I'm usually the one waiting for you. Good morning, sweetie" She said. I smile as I walk to her and gave her a hug. I grab her car keys as she gets her belongings. On the way out I grab my backpack and we're on the road

After a few minutes I arrive to school. It's my last year of school. This year I finally graduate! I gave my mother a kiss and I stepped out of the car. I walk in in a hurry.

"Oh, I'm so sorry Mrs. Brook. How late am I-" I looked up and see someone different in front of her desk.

"Oh..um. Sorry... I'll just step out until you're done-"

"Oh, we don't mind. This gentle man was just asking help on his schedule" she said as she gestured her hand toward him. I look up at a boy. I smile awkwardly and he smiled back. I stood there for a long time just staring.

"Please...take a seat" I brake the long stare and take a seat. Oh, how bad I want to talk to him ugh but I'm sure i'll embarrass myself like any other time when I talk...well try to talk to boys. I said to myself. I felt sensation of being stared at. I looked up to his smile. I smiled back.

"Kids, is everything alright. Do you both know each other?" Mrs Brook interrupted. We shook our heads and I felt myself burn up. I take out a book and began to read although it was quit difficult when he kept staring at me as Mrs. Brook tried helping him out. I would smile back and get back to my reading.

"Welcome to your new school." I heard Mrs. Brook warmly say. I was finally able to get into reading.

"Marilyn? Marilyn!"-I looked up- " please, introduce yourself" she said. I stood up and walked up to both of them.

"Hello I'm Marilyn Woods, nice meeting you" I said as I held my hand out. He gave me a warm smile. I swear I could hear my insides screaming at this point.

"Nice meeting you as well, I'm Zayn. Zayn Malik" he shook hands

"Zayn..." I awkwardly repeated

"Yes?..." I heard his voice. I brought myself back.

"Oh, uh. It's noting. It's just. Your name..its- It's really nice" I said. He giggled. There go my insides again.

"Thank you" he said as he looked down at me again for a long time.The bell rang and our sights disconnected.

"Kids these days..." I heard Mrs. Brook say beneath her breath.

"So what's your first class?" He asked.

"This class. Math" I said. A bright smile lights up on his face

"That's great. It's also mine. Uh, mind if I sit next to you, I might need a lot of help today" He asked. I shook my head

"I wouldn't mind that at all." He smiled and we walked down a row and sit next to each other. It's weird how we barley met but it feels like we've known each other for the longest.
