Introduction

I woke up to the sound of the vacuum cleaner. Mum is such a neat-freak.

"Mum, turn it off..." I groaned sleepily as I rolled over.
"Get up Scarlett." She replied, "You're going to be late for your first day of year 9".
I growled and rolled out of bed to get dressed.

Before you leap into my life with me, I should tell you about myself.

I'm Scarlett Thornton, an average 15-year-old teenage girl. I have dark blonde hair and blue eyes. Everyone says I'm blessed with beauty, but I know that I am not. I go to high-school and I live with my mum, dad and older brother Kayne. Yes, I am adopted. I was taken away from my real mum and dad after the incident... But let's not talk about that now.

I pulled on my uniform and did my hair and makeup. As I was eating breakfast, mum said that she'd be at work after school so I'd have to walk home, and of course dad was at work. He's never home.

When it was time for school to start mum dropped me off in the carpark. I walked to my locker and stuffed in my bag in my usual manner. I sensed someone standing behind me and whipped around. There stood a boy that I'd never seen before. He was about half a head taller than me and had dark brown eyes. He also had medium-brown hair with a bit of a side-fringe that was messily styled. Just let me say, he wasn't bad looking.

"Hey" the boy said to me.
"Hi" I replied, "who are you?".
"Oscar." He introduced himself, "who are you?".
"Scarlett." I said back, starting to get annoyed at his simplicity.
"Well Scarlett," he said slowly, "see you in homeroom".

He then walked off, leaving me standing there like an idiot.
It's going to be an interesting year.
