Walking though the isles i dreaded everyday, the same faces pass per usual. Nothing's changed, I walk to my locker and put in the usual combination, my best friend Kate comes up next to me to discuss the usual. Telling me about how her night was and letting me in on the newest drama or information. "Yeah and my mom said that I couldn't go because she knew they would be there, I mean they are but she's being ridiculous!" I nod my head slightly, still drowsy from the early hour. "Oh! Did you hear that we're getting a new guy in our second period tomorrow?" I suddenly stood a little straighter as i placed my last item in my arms and closed my locker, facing her, I say. "A new boy?" All of the sudden i have interest in my voice. "Yeah! He's transferring from Central. I heard he's cute. Domi and Rose saw his headshots!"
"Ah~ I cant wait to meet him, maybe he's nice." I say trying to sound a little less excited. "Me too~!" Kate beams and hugs me "I'll see you in second period, I'm still mad that I have math first thing in the morning." She playfully rolls her eyes and smiles. "Aha see you later Katie." I chuckle and make my way to Biology.
Walking in the classroom, I sit in my usual seat in the back of the room, greeting my usual semi-friends, taking my earbuds out as my teacher starts calling names for attendance. "Micheal, Kayla, Brandon, Jaylynn." When she gets to my name I raise my hand silently and look down, my wannabe quirky shyness kicking in. The rest of the class carries on as usual and in no time the bell rings I gather my things and meet Kate, Domi and Rose by Domi's locker so we can all head to second period together.
The four of us laugh and joke around all the way to piano class, as we stand right outside of the door Domi speaks up about her disgust for the class and the teacher "Ugh I hate this class, Mrs. Mariano never calls on anyone else but me." She scoffs. "Well Domi you have two more years of piano experience. Each of us only have one, you have three." Rose chuckles as he places his hand on her shoulder in a fatherly manner. "Kate's great too! Why doesn't she call on her?!" She pouts. "I'm glad she doesn't call on me." Kate shoots back semi-sarcastically. We all laugh as we walk into class and sit down at our partnered benches, Rose and I at one piano, Domi and Kate and the one next to ours. Mrs. Mariano walks into class using her conductors bow to direct the class into silence. We had to practice a partnered project, we got to choose a duet of our own so the rest of class was spent picking our song, mostly talking to Kate and Domi about our normal. We finally decided to play Young and Beautiful by Lana Del Ray Domi and Kate are playing Waving Through a Window from Dear Evan Hansen.
Class ended and the four of us left together all of us separated once more as we all made our way to third period, I walked with my earbuds blasting to my English class, sitting down at my desk, pulling out my homework from the night prior so my teacher can come collect it. He taught the mundane class and handed out more work, I swear he doesn't do anything but speak in a monotone voice about various proverbs, poems and projects. Babbling on about Shakespeare and other notorious authors, getting off track when a student asks about the inspiration behind behind Romeo and Juliet. Taking this time to pretend I'm writing notes but in reality I'm doodling pictures of cheesy inspirational quotes on my spiral notebook. The bell rang and I stood up to walk out of the door. "Ah, Miss Jones. Come here." I nervously walk towards my teachers desk, "Yes, Mr. Riker?" I questioned the volume of my voice dropped drastically to nearly a whisper, scars that I was getting scolded for something. "We're getting a new student tomorrow, he will be sitting next to you and is like it if you could make him feel welcome, his name is Kim Taehyung." I nod and respond "of course", "Perfect, you're dismissed". I nod my head once more and left the room.
Heading to my locker I met up with Kate, Rose and Domi and get my lunchbox. "You're late~ where were you?" Domi asked. "Mr. Riker asked me to make the new guy feel welcome tomorrow, his name is Taehyung." "What's up with all the new kids? " Rose questioned. "Yeah, I have a new guy named Jimin coming to my art class tomorrow." Kate chimed in. "This is so weird" I shake my head and close my locker, we walk to the cafe together and sit at our usual table. We talked and laughed as usual, inside jokes, reciting memes, poking fun at each other. An annoying guy started yelling and Kate and I look at each other and say "He on X-Games mug." The four of us start laughing hysterically. After a while of laughing and carrying on Kate says "But seriously what is with all the new guys." "Right! There's a guy coming to my literature class, his name is Yoongi." Domi adds. "A guy named Hoseok is joined my history class." Rose chimed in. "I'd seriously like to know why all of the sudden all these new students are transferring here from Central. We aren't any better, ya know." I place my elbow on the table and rest my chin on the palm of my hand.
We finish eating our lunch, Rose and I go to our dance class while Domi and Kate go to their vocals class. I step out of the dressing room in joggers and a baggy, cropped t-shirt. Miss Kara, a teacher we're allowed to address by her first name, walking into the classroom. "Alright y'all, sit down in the center." She said happily. "Miss Kara we aren't kindergarteners" one guy joked. "I know most of you aren't but how else am I supposed to get you're attention, Noel?" She questioned jokingly, tilting her head to the side, smirking. There were various "YO" 's and "AYE" 's from the class as they laughed. "Alright, alright settle. I was going to start you guys in a partnered dance project today but since we're getting two new students tomorrow, I'll just give you guys some freestyle time." Everyone cheered. Miss Kara turned on some music and we formed a circle, each person took turns dancing to the music in the middle of the circle.
When class was nearly over, everyone went to the dressing rooms and changed back into their normal clothes, I tossed on my jeans and black Paramore shirt, lazily.
Rose and I leave class together laughing, we pass Domi and Kate, stopping along the way to talk. "Mrs. Holden is giving vocal assignments today, also another new student." Kate's says. "His name is Jungkook." Domi finished. "Another new boy?" Rose said, he doesn't even sound surprised anymore. "There are two new guys joining Miss Kara's dance class too." I say shifting my weight from one foot to the other. "So we have seven new guys transferring from Central?" Domi states. We finish our conversations and head to our final period. We walk into our vocal class and do the given assignments and work on them.
The day ends faster than expected, we're all standing outside by our busses and say our goodbyes. I pop in my earbuds per usual and blast my favorite songs all the way home. As soon as the bus reaches my stop, I check my mailbox and walk into my house, greeting my mom and dog, setting the mail down on the kitchen counter, grab a snack and sit down in my bedroom with my laptop, I watch YouTube while I wait for the inevitable Skype call. Not too long after a few YouTube videos, I hear the familiar rings and answer the call. We laugh and joke for hours as usual, a new topic arises, the new guys at school. We sit for a good hour and a half trying to assess why there would be so many guys transferring from Central on the same day. The next few hours fly by and before we know it we're hanging up the call and getting ready for bed. Tomorrow. Tomorrow will be an interesting day.
