Worst of Me

Chapter 5

SKYLER JOHANSSON’S POV

A/N:Mild use of profanity.

“Are you excited, it’s your first day at your new school, sure you’re about..2 months late from the actual first day,  it we moved in between the year, so yeah.” Skyler’s mom said, while driving with Skyler in the back.

“I still can’t believe dad had to get a job in a different city.” Skyler mumbled.

“Hey, this will bring new opportunities for all of us, maybe you’ll even get a boyfriend.” Her mom joked. I don’t want a boyfriend, I want a girlfriend. Skyler nodded in response and stayed silent.  

“Look, I know you’re upset about the change, but it’ll be good for us, just wait.” Her mom said. Sure it will..

They parked in the parking lot and walked to the front of the school, a lot of the students were walking around the campus, some were murmuring about me.

“Okay, well, go ahead. I can’t be with you all the time. Bye Sky, I hope you have a nice day.” Her mom said as she walked back to the car. Immediately,a group of girls sauntered up to her.

“Hey newbie. We’re just gonna cut to the chase, we want you to be a part of our group. This is a huge opportunity for you because not everyone gets to join, if you join us, any guy will like you and you’ll be like the queen bee of the school. I’m Veronica.” She said. “That’s Tiffany, Brenda, and Stacey.” You guys smell like you bathed in over priced perfume.

“Thanks for the offer, but I’m not what you are looking for.” Skyler said, rejecting her. Veronica scrunched her face in disgust and anger.

“You know, you’re probably right, I wouldn’t want a bitch like you with us.” Veronica said,before walking off. Talk about fake. Jerks. I looked around when I realized there was next to one outside. Shit. I’m gonna be late on my first day. What’s my first period? Ugh..Math...B103. Where the hell is B103?! The bell rang as soon as I ran inside the building looking for the room. Is this a school or a maze?! It didn’t look this big from the outside!!

“Hey, do you need some help?” A tall girl in a green shirt asked. She had a lanyard around her neck. Oh she must be an office assistant.

“Umm, yeah, I can’t find room B103.” I said.

“Okay, just go left and then into the second room on the right.” Fern said. A girl in a purple hoodie and dyed black and blue hair with a silver eye color walked by, the girl in the green shirt stopped her.

“Hey, you’re going to the same direction as B103?” The girl asked her.

“Yeah, the auditorium for theater is at the end of that hall.” She said.

“Can you take the new girl to room B103?” She asked.

“Sure.” She said. The girl in the green shirt pulled the girl in the purple hoodie closer and whispered something to her. The girl in the purple hoodie smiled with a slight blush and nodded before walking off with me.

“Sooo..who was that?” I asked.

“Oh that’s Fern. So you’re new?” She asked me.

“Yeah, I moved from Colorado.” I said. “My name is Skyler, by the way.”

“I’m Eury.” She said, before stopping in front of a door that was numbered B103. “Do you have B lunch?”

“Yeah.” I said.
