The Insider

First Impressions

Today was the first day of senior year. I was only one year from graduating and my family just had to move to California. I knew no one and was about to be on my way to Mior Mill High School. I had just finished straiting my long, light brown hair. I had skinny blue jeans on and a light blue top that was coated with a flower design. I didn't like makeup I always felt like it was just something that covored you true beauty but I knew I needed it so I put some maskera, light blue eyeshadow, eyeliner, blush, and of course clear lip gloss. I made my final touch ups and headed downstairs to grabb my bag, phone, keys, a apple to eat for breakfast and was headed out the door after saying my quick goodbyes to my parents. I got into my car Honda, I put my keys into the ignition and was headed to my new high school.

I pulled into the parking lot and got out. I didn't know what to expect but when I looked up I new it was going to be one crazy senior year. The bell rang and I new I was going to give a bad impression to my homeroom teacher. I hurried and tried to find my way to the office.

"Hey." I heared, a voice of a girly tone said from behind me. I turned around to see a blonde headed girl that looked like she was around my age. She had light green eyes and was about my hight (5'6).

"Hey." I said trying to be friendly back.

"Are you new around here? I don't think I've seen you here before." she said with a curious look in her eyes.

"um, yeah, yes I am." I said.

"Thought you were. Let me guess your trying to find the office." she said with a smile.

"Yeah! could you help me?" I said with a little laugh.

"No problem. Follow me." she said walking past me. She was pretty and was probably one of the most popular girls in school and she was really nice.

"What's your name?" she asked while walking down the hallway.

"Aria." I said catching up to her.

"pretty." she said with a smile. "Well I'm Alice." she continued.

"I like that name, it's unique." I said returning the nice comment she gave me.

"Thanks!" she said stopping at what guessed was the office. "Well I'll see you around." she said with a smile before walking away. I walked into the office to the receptionest.

"May I help you?" she asked.

"Yes I'm new here." I replied.

"Name." she said.

"Oh, right, sorry it's Aria, Aria-"

"Aria Strider." she said interupting me and handing me my schedule.

"Thanks." I said.

"Your welcome, just go down the hall, take a right and it's the third room on the left." she said with a smile. I nodded and followed her directions. I entered the room and got stares from everyone.

"Yes?" the teacher asked sounding a little mad that I enterupted her class.

"I'm Aria-"

"Oh yes the new student, well I'm miss Jones." she said with a smile. "why don't you take a seat in the back beside Liam." she continued pointing to the boy in the back of the class. He had dark hair and brown eyes, he had some tatoos and looked like he hung out with bad boys. I didn't stare at him long before walking over to the empty seat in the back of the class. I took my things out of my bag and put them on my desk. I tried my best to listen to the teacher so I could get caught up since we were already in the 5th week of school and I had no idea what we were doing. After what seemed forever at home room the bell finally rang and everyone stampided to the hallway. I went to my new locker to put everything away exept for what I needed and headed to my next class.
