Hearts

First Day

"Jojo get you butt out of bed! The bus will be here any minute," my mother screams to wake me up.

I grunt as I sit up remember my plans I quickly grab my clothes and change. I run down stairs and put on my shoes. Before I head out the door I grab my suitcase. Then I sit on the steps and wait for the bus.

I hear the bus before I see it. As I see the bus drive around the corner, I stand up and stretch my legs. I walk up to the curb, waiting for the bus to pull up. I turn back to take one more look at my home and I see them looking at me with teary eyes. I don't know why they are sad about sending me to a murder school.

Walking up the stairs I feel all the eyes already sizing me up. Therefor I walk with my head held high to show I am not afraid of them. Once I'm on I walk to the very back to the only empty seat and put my bag in front of my legs. Then I sit back and in joy the ride.

The bus gradually slows down to a stop as we approach a huge building. I grab my suitcase and stand up with the rest of the students. We all walk off the bus in a single file line. It's not like elementary school when everybody is pushing each other to get off first. The calmness is soothing.

As I get off the bus a lady in a nice looking red suit. She hands me a name tag with my name on it. I take it and smile back at her. I approach the school and take a deep breath. Then I take my first step through the door.

Before I can collect my thoughts a man who looks like he's in charge clears his throats to grab our attention. " I would like to welcome you all here to our beautiful school. As you all know you have been selected to attend Govern of Hearts. Some of you may go on a run in just a week time but most of you it will be a month. If you were to split this room in half, the half to your left would be the men. Therefor your right is the women. The doors on these walls lead to your dorm. In a few minutes the leader will come in and give your uniform and schedule. You are dismissed."

I follow the rest of the girls to the dorm. The dorm is just one big open room with a nook in the corner which I presume is the bathroom. The back wall has a pole with hangers on it, where we're probably going to hang our clothes. The rest of the room is covered in beds, but not bunk beds which reminds me that this isn't camp. I choose a bed by the wall and throw my suitcase under the bed.

I notice a lady who looks around the age of 22 walk into the room. I walk over there knowing she is leader by just the way she hold herself. Her shoulders are held back with her chin lifted. She looks around waiting for everybody to come over.

Once everybody is in a line in front of her she clears her throat and begins speaking, "my name is Eve. I will be your leader this year. In a few moments I am going to give you your uniform. First though I'm going to explain what your day will look like tomorrow. At 7:30 you will be out in the main room ready for the day. The main roomies where you met the principals. Then you will go to the assigned areas that they put you to. You will switch station approximately every forty minutes. At one you will eat lunch till two. After lunch you will report to the class room which is to the right outside of this door. Any questions?"

We all look at her with blank faces. She then looks satisfied and claps her hand. "Okay, if there are no questions then let's get you uniform. After you get yours change into it then stand back in this line," she finishes.

After I am done changing I stand back line. The uniform is a tight black tank top with black legging which is also extremely tight. The thing that really makes me feel uncomfortable are the seven inch black heels. It feels like I'm trying to seduce men.

Eve starts explaining again, "Lunch will be in a few minutes and the cafeteria is the second door one the right out this door. You can sit where ever you want by who ever you want. After lunch there will be a few activities for you to get to know your fellow class mates."
