     On the first day at my new school, I never would've imagined that I would meet such a person as the school's kingka Johnny and how he would change my life for the better. Johnny was known as the school's bad boy who didn't show up to school, partied, and yet he still got good grades. Due to those characteristics, it made all the girls swoon over Johnny, but little did Johnny know that he would eventually bump into the more feminine boy and eventually fall deeply and utterly in love with him but let's start from the beginning.

     During the summer before junior year, my family decided to pack up and move to a new city as my dad got a new job opportunity that would pay twice as much as his last job. As summer was rolling by and the new school year was fast approaching, I couldn't help but be nervous about how things will turn out in the near future. "Will I fit in?" "Will I be able to make some new friends?" "Will I meet someone that will change my life for the better?" I asked myself these questions and I paced around my spacious room. I was on the phone talking to my friend Mark and he could tell I was nervous as I often worried about how I was seen by other people so I would seem shy at first glance. "I can tell by your voice that you're stressing but once that one person breaks through that barrier, I know that they'll see that you're a cutesy, aegyo master, and a cool dude." As I heard the words he said, I started to become calmer and collected about this matter and sighed, thanks. Soon after, I ended the call due to the fact that it was late, and I didn't want to keep Mark up all night with my rambling, and I heard my mom calling me down for dinner.

     I slowly dragged my feet down the cold wooden stairs as I heard my family chat in the kitchen. They're probably waiting for me to make my entrance since I was the last to arrive from my room. I could smell the delicious scent of the pizza my dad must've picked up on the way home. As I made my way into the kitchen, I couldn't help to feel a little paranoid because I felt everyone was watching me. I knew that the topic of "School" was going to be brought up at some point at the dinner table, and I honestly was dreading that moment since it won't make me feel any better about tomorrow. Still, I happily grabbed a piece of pizza due to the rumbling in my stomach. As I sat at the dinner table, I was mostly silent, adding a "yeah" or "mhm" to agree. Still, I tried to keep the conversation at the minimum, so they might even forget to bring it up. But as I figured it would, that moment finally came when my mom cheerfully asked me if I was excited. All I thought about in my head was "who in their right mind would even be excited about school" as I thought of a not so sarcastic response. I said, "I guess" to avoid any more conversation about the topic, but of course, my dad went on to ask what I am excited about. They all stared at me for a response but I just shrugged my shoulders and continued to literally shove the pizza in my face. As soon as I was finished, I put the plate in the sink and ran up the stairs as fast as I could to my room and locked the door. As I stood behind my door, I huffed a "thank god that's over with" and went over to sit on my bed.

     I decided to just relax and read some manga I didn't get to the day before, and soon enough, my eyes started to get droopy. I looked at the clock and noticed that I have been reading for quite some time and decided it was time to go to bed. I got up and changed into my PJs sloppily, almost tumbling on the extra fabric from my pants as I walked to prep myself for bed. After I washed my face and everything I usually do is done, I lazily strolled over and collapsed on my bed. I got comfy under my fuzzy blankets and started thinking about tomorrow. My eyes started to glaze over, and sweet bliss of sleep started to take over my body and mind.

     I was at peace until my alarm went off, waking me out of my sweet dreams. I had a strange dream, one that I've never experienced before. It was a boy and I cuddling in the moonlight. I was so content in that dream, but I had no idea who the strange guy was. This thought made me sit there for a good five minutes, trying to decipher if he was from my old school or if he was just some random guy I had fantasized about.

     As much as I wanted it not to be true, the day finally came where I would be the "new face" in the school. The night before, I didn't get much sleep because of my constant worrying but finally passed out after a while. My alarm jolted me awake which sent a long sigh to come out of my mouth. After five minutes of procrastinating, I finally decided to get up to get ready for the first day of literal "hell." I lay in my bed and take in the scent of my favorite Febreze scent and think about the events that will happen in the near future. As my legs draped over the side of my cozy bed, a wave of cold air hit my bare skin and sent shivers all over my body. Although that gave me some motivation to go and jump into the warm shower, my nerves stopped me in my tracks, but I know my nerves couldn't be used as an excuse not to go, so I eventually stood up and walked to the bathroom. As I got out of the shower, I looked at my reflection and sighed due to my lack of confidence in myself but continued to prep myself for school. I trudged my feet to my closet to get my school's uniform out. My mom was kind enough to make sure it was ironed to perfection so I wouldn't have to wear a wrinkled uniform to school. I reluctantly put it on as I still didn't want to go, and the scent of my Febreze on the uniform helped me calm down a bit.

     Once I was done, I walked down the stairs to grab some breakfast so I wouldn't be hungry for the day. When I finally reached the kitchen, I was met with the sweet smell of pancakes and my mom's greeting of "good morning, sweetie." As I ate my breakfast, I noticed if I didn't leave now, I would most likely be late, so I rushed to finish the delicious pancakes and gave a quick goodbye and ran out of the house. The walk to school was fairly long, and the breeze nipping at my skin wasn't helping to make the walk any better. In my sight, I saw the front entrance to the school and a wave of uneasy feelings take over my body and show through my expression. I was so lost in thought that I didn't notice a boy with the same uniform as me passing by on a black motorcycle.
