Ryley and kayle

chapter 2

Ryley POV

"Today's going to be easy" I assured myself. It was my first day in mid-way high, and how am I feeling pretty nervous but who really isn't on their first day.

I already thought of all the things that could go wrong today, First I could totally be my klutzy self and fall a lot or I my clothes could get stuck in my locker and be so embarrassing, I could choke on my lunch and have the entire school starring at me. I  chased the horrible thoughts from  my head, I planned everything that could go wrong and do the opposite, instead of putting on uncomfortable shoes , I put on the most comfortable canvas I had, instead of a dress, I wear a blue jeans with the end rolled up to my ankle, and a lilac top with a picture of a kitten in front. I wanted to be as casual as I can.

"OK I can't stay in the car all day, time to get this show on the road" I gripped the steering a little, feeling the leather under my palm then I turned off the car, it was nice of my dad to let me use his car on my first day I knew I didn't want to walk and I didn't want my dad to drop me.

I got out of the car and I knew the first thing I should do was to locate the reception for my school schedule. I looked around the not yet filled parking lot, then I checked my watch to see how early I was, it was still seven thirty but the sky was already as bright like it should have been Ten. Their was no one to ask yet but I saw a woman, she was putting up a black skirt and cream cotton top a casual office look she had her hair in a bun and of looks like she was carrying a bag and keys were dangling from her other fingers . I went straight towards  her, she must have heard my stride footsteps towards her cause next thing I knew she turned to look at me, immediately she had a charming smile on her face I couldn't deny it made me a whole lot comfortable to approach her.

"You must miss Ryley Pierce" she said

It sounded more like an assuring statement than a question but I took it as a question. "Yes ma'am"
I replied with a shy smile

"I'm Mrs Collins the schools secretary, follow me please" then she was on walking towards another building separated from the school, I followed, she stopped at the door of the building and used a key card to open it.

The smell of air freshened room hit my nostrils, the reception was quite beautiful and large, she stopped my a high desk close to a small dolphin fountain that want pouring out water, which looked more like something in a hotel than a school, dropped her things and sad on a high stood obviously. This school wasn't so bad.

"Well don't just stand there...come in" she instructed me.

I the realised I was still standing outside, marvelled by the interior in the room, I stepped in and walked quickly towards her, taking a step at a time. I cleared my throat and saw her pulling out something from below her then she put it on the counter, her desk was really high reaching me above my upper body but below my upper arm. I reached to take the sheets she had handed me and looked at it. They were my timetable, list of textbooks and other important stuff and they all had my name written boldly on it.

"If you have any issues with the arrangement of your timetable or having trouble with the class...feel free to come up to me darling" she gave me a wide grin, Mrs Collins looked like a woman in her mid fifties, she had few wrinkles under her eye and put on glasses my grand pa would put, she looked strict but she wasn't or maybe it because am new. Things were looking good so far. I checked my timetable and went through it and saw I had chemistry first period, my worst right after calculus.  And also it felt like I had chemistry more than other subject. I had to hide me disappointed face before I turn her smile into a worried look.

"Thank you ma'am" I gave her a small smile

"Is everything all good?" Mrs Collins asks

I was going to say no...buuut..

"Yeah...sure it fine...is there anything else I should do?" I know this wasn't  all the things needed

"No" she had said turning her head to search her place to see if she forgot something. "All your materials are in your locker and your locker information are all there..." She ran me down everything for today and told me where my class was to be and like that I was out of the reception with no worries

"Here I go " I muttered to myself sounding a little excited. I looked at the parking lot and saw people where starting to come.

Like that I let out a deep sigh....
