Lost Without You

I'm late

~Jordan~

It's been a hectic summer. Telling my mom about moving to my dad's and actually moving. It exhausting. I knew my mom would understand. With everything I've been through, I deserve a break. A break from the bullying and a break from the horrible home I had.

I now live with my dad, my step mom, and my little sister (she's one at the time). We live on base. Yes, I am a military brat.

We had all summer to sit at the house and watch Netflix. Mostly me watching Netflix while the parentals work. I'm going to a new school this year. Sad thing is, they have uniforms! How am I supposed to express my emo self now? I mean I'm not necessarily emo, I like to call myself emo. All of sixth grade I wore big hoodies and black skinny jeans.

I'm at home and it's the day before school starts. I'm not used to going to bed early, but my dad insists I get a good night's sleep. Oh yeah, I'm grounded by the way. All the way until December and it's only August! Flipping great. Everyone is going to think I am a loser without a phone.

It's getting late so I should shower and get ready for bed. I shower and do all the good stuff. After I shower, I get in bed. This bed is my safe space.

The Next Morning

I roll out of bed and start putting on my clothes. A navy blue collared shirt and khaki jeans. Why must I wear this uniform? Oh yeah because we all have to dress the same, so that no one is singled out.

I am a little anxious about wearing this. What if no one wears theirs and I am the only one wearing it? What if I am the one getting singled out? With my reddish-brown hair, glasses, and social anxiety I am totally going to be singled out.

Oh god, this is going to be stressful.

I look like the clock and it reads 8:15 and school starts at 8:25. I am going to be late. I rush into my stepmoms room and tell her we need to leave. We rush out and get in the car. Now it's 8:20.

On the way there I am so nervous. Of course it's because it's a new school where I know nobody. When we get there it's already 8:27 and I'm late. Of course I'm late! This always happens to me, doesn't it?

I get in and they tell me which room to go to. I go in and sit with all guys. It was the only table where I could sit. I sat by this guy named Austin. What was weird is that when the teacher asked where I moved from I said Austin. I said it because that is where I moved from! It made me feel so uncomfortable.

We get our schedule and head to second period. Which is English, second and third are the same.

Fourth period is math. I sit in the way back.

Fifth period is science. I sit with some girls.

Sixth is Texas History. I get seated right at the front.

Seventh is Health. I am again, seated at the front.

Eighth, the last period of the day. Gateway. I sit all by myself. Some other people walk in and I notice a blonde-hair blue-eyed girl. She's really pretty.

I have one made one friend and her name is Lauren. I hope I make more.....
