A/N:- Hey!! New Chapter!! Keep reading. Hope you like it :)

Brookfield High School has 3 main buildings. The center building had  like some 200 stairs! There is a fountain which is in the center in front of all the 3 buildings. I felt like I was walking into a huge university. As I entered inside the first building there was a reception and a lady who was about 28 years old was giving me a smile. I walked towards her and told her my name and admission number and she gave me my time-table , my locker number, keys , and an all the best smile. I was walking as I was looking at my time table and I ran into a girl.

"Oh I'm really sorry. I was just-"

"Its okay." She gave me a warm smile and walked away.

My first period was biology. I was still struggling to find my class then finally when I found it I walked in and made my way through a group of girls discussing about last night's grey's anatomy episode and then a really huge group of guys (all muscular to be specific) standing and then I see a small knit group of 3 girls and 2 guys. And me? I am just standing and thinking where to go.

"Good morning class. Please sit down. Open your books. I'm dictating the answer to the next question that is the third one. It is- members of phycomycetes are found-" , The teacher walked in and said all this while she was walking from the door to her table. The whole class was messed up. Everyone is running around to take a seat because she just suddenly walked in and has already dictated half of the answer. And I just take the closest seat and try to match up to her speed but soon just like other people I gave up. I put the pen down and I realized that I was sitting with the girl I ran into in the morning. She smiled again. I smiled back.

"Gave up?"

"Had to!" She chuckled and she said, "I'm Adriana Smith"

"Kristen Lambert", I smiled.

"I have never seen you around."

"Because I was never around."

"Huh?"

"I'm new in this city"

"Ohhh!" ,  rest of the class she had Suit and Tie song stuck in her head. Soon the bell rang indicating that the first period has ended. She stood up and said, "Nice meeting you Kristen..I'll see you around"

We both waved and smiled as she vanished in the huge crowd. Our mini break had started that is the time when we change our classes.

I had arts next. I stepped inside the art class and I had a warm welcome from my art teacher. She was a warm woman. She was perfect to look at. She introduced herself. I told her my name and she handed over the syllabus sheet for the year to me, my colors and my canvas. Obviously no one else got it coz I was one week late to school! I try to handle the things in my hand when the teacher called someone to help me out. I looked at his blue and white converse and I looked up at him. He was Jensen. He gave me a small grin and took the canvas from my hand and he walked towards an empty place. He placed my canvas down and I said thank you. He smiled again and walked to his seat. He sat 1 row away from me. All the girls were staring at him like a hungry dog. But he just smiled at them. I guess he was used to it.

"Okay students. So for the new kids- my name is Anne Kennedy and I'm going to be you arts teacher" , she clapped to have our attention. We looked at her and she smiled and continued, "Okay so students. I don’t know what arts really means to all of you. But arts for me is something that sees the world with a totally different perspective. The beauty of arts is in everyone of you out here. You just need to look inside yourself and ask yourself what actually you want to draw and then you see that you can draw anything." , I looked at her with so much admiration. She smiled at everyone and continued, "Today I just want you all to think what exactly you like and if you find something then draw else just think and in the next class we will start with whatever you want to draw. " , we all nodded and did what she wanted us to.

The art class went pretty good. Me and Jensen just shared some glances. I couldn’t draw anything today. I was thinking and just like me many people didn’t. The day was going pretty good but I didn’t make a friend I could hang out with. I was randomly searching something in my locker. I actually didn't even know what I was looking for. I had a free period right now because the teacher was absent. I trod over to the library which had pin drop silence and it was huge. Giant racks full of books were all over the places. There were fancy tables and bean bags scattered in random places. There was barely anyone there. I was looking through the non-fiction section when suddenly someone on my right spoke up.

"Hey I'm Phillip" , I look at him and then at his hand which he had extended forward for friendship. He was pretty tall and had blonde hair. His green eyes sparkled  with mischief and he grinned like a 5 year old boy had just convinced his parents to take him to the funfair.

"Um- Hi Kristen" , I accept his 'friend request' .

"You new here right?"

"Yup! I am" , he nodded.

"You made some friends lately? "

"Um nope. But I will. Thank you for asking" , I smiled.

"I am your friend."

I felt good when he said that. His green eyes looked so adorable and his lean body was just perfect. But he wasn't as attractive as Jensen. Phillip gave more of a brotherly vibe to me.

"Yes you are." , he gave a small push on my shoulder and I chuckled. He suddenly yanked his phone out of his pockets which was vibrating rapidly.

"Ahh sorry I'll see you around okay? My grandmom is calling." , I chuckled and he did the same and waved. I heard him talking to his grandmom.

"Nan I'm at school what happened?" , he narrowed his eyes and continued, "What? You can't climb up the stairs? Why do you wanna go up?,  he smacked his forehead with his hand and said, "Dare you check my room for vodka. I'm telling you. You already had a lot last night" , I chuckled and began walking out for my next class.

I wish.. I could adjust in this school and make some more friends. Who actually like me as the person I am.
