New beginnings (Tom Holland x reader)

Chapter one

I had moved to London during the school holiday, before the new school year would start, so that I could start at a new school on the first day with everyone else. At least, that's what my parents say. My father works for a billion dollar company that expanded all over the world, which meant that I moved all around the world a lot for work. I am really quiet and shy mainly because I never really stayed in one place, so I didn't get the time to make good friends. I loved reading. All I did everyday was basically read. Books kept me very interested, so I didn't really go out or watch movies or have any type of social media. I have a phone but all it did was text and make phone calls, but that didn't bother me because I  didn't need more.

Today is my first day of school. I woke up and started to get ready. I took a shower and got dressed and added a bit of make-up so that I don't look like a zombie. I walked into the kitchen and saw my mom making breakfast and my dad sitting in the kitchen talking to her. 

"Hey dad. Hey mom.", I said walking up and giving each of them a hug before sitting next to my dad.

"Morning princess, are you ready for school?", my dad asked.

"As ready as I'll ever be." 

"Are you nervous?", my mom asked.

"You seem to be forgetting how many times I've had a first day at a new school", I laughed.

My mom finished breakfast and we all ate, talking about previous schools I've been to and first days. After breakfast, my dad took me to school. I went to the front office and I was taken to my classroom and given my schedule. I stood in front talking to my teacher before school officially started. Once the bell rang, the students started coming in and sitting down. Everyone was staring at me. Even though I've done this before, it still makes me nervous when everyone stares at me. 

"Good morning everyone. We have a new student joining us today. Her name is (y/n). She moved here from, most recently, New Zealand. I hope that you all will make her feel welcome and help her find her way around the school." She looked around for an open desk for me to sit at and she pointed to a seat next to a cute boy with brown hair. Why did he have to be cute?! I sat down next to him, very nervous because of how good looking he was. 

He turned to face me and said, "Hi I'm Sam,", then he pointed to someone next to him, "and this is my brother Harry.", then Harry looked up at me and waved with a cute friendly smile. 

"Hello I'm (y/n), as you probably heard", I laughed, "It's nice to meet you guys." I smiled at them. "It's nice to meet you too", they both said in unison. 

"So you're from New Zealand?", Harry asked. 

"Kinda. We moved from New Zealand to London but I'm not from New Zealand. We move just move around a lot." 

"That sounds cool!", said Sam.

"Not really because you guys are basically the only friends I've ever had."

They frowned. "I'm so sorry, (y/n).", said Sam. 

"It's okay. I don't really care because I'm basically reading all the time anyway.", I laughed. 

Harry whispered something in Sam's ear which followed with a nod from Sam. They both looked at me and Harry said, "You should come have dinner at our house tonight, we will ask mum to make an extra space for you."

"Wow, that's so sweet guys but I can't intrude on your dinner with your family...", I said.

"No, you're not intruding. You are more than welcome to come, my parents won't mind.", said Harry. 

"Are you sure?"

"Yes!", they said in unison.

"Then sure i'd love to come!"

"Follow me on instagram and I will dm you the details.", said Sam.

"Oh, uhm, I don't have instagram..."

"WHAT?!", they both said a little too loud with a confused look on their faces. 

The whole class turned to us and they realised and said, "sorry miss."

"Twitter?"

"Nope."

"Snapchat?"

"Nope."

"Well, what do you have?"

"A phone number.", I laughed.

The rest of the day, they helped me find my way around the school and we got to know each other better. We sat together at lunch and in the classes we had together, which was almost all of them. At the end of the school day, Sam said he will text me later with the time and place before we all went home. My mom fetched me at school and asked all the regular questions such as "how was your day?", "what was school like?", "did i make any friends?" and so on. I told her about Sam and Harry and the dinner at their house tonight and she was more excited about it than I was. 

Once I got home, I started my homework( I know right, homework on the first day sucks) then I got a text from someone with an address and time and I knew it was Sam. I saved the number on my phone and texted back saying "thnx :)"
