Reckless

(Hey guys, sorry the last chapter was so short, I'm kinda new to this and I've only figured out how to add a new chapter ahah. Thanks for reading! xx)

My alarm clock woke me up at 6:30 and today is the day that I start at St Paul's. It has been 6 days since my visit and also since I've seen Harry. He hasn't been around town recently and neither has Lucy, thank god.

I got out of bed and made my way to the bathroom and hopped into the shower. The heat of the water helped me relax a bit but I was still a nervous wreck as I got dressed and made my way downstairs for breakfast. I really hoped that dad would be in his office so I wouldn't have to start up a conversation, but I wasn't so lucky.

I walked into the kitchen and dad was sitting at the table.

"morning" I said to him as I put some bread in the toaster.

"morning" he said "are you excited for today?"

I looked at him and shrugged, of course I wasn't.

"Well, you better hurry up because you only have 15 minutes to be at the bus stop."

The toast popped up and I buttered it before running upstairs to grab my bag. I grabbed my phone and checked my messages there was one from aunt Claire which said 'good luck today!'

Amy had sent one aswell, saying the same thing.

I finished my toast and went to the bathroom and brushed my teeth. I looked in the mirror, I actually looked pretty decent considering I'm a nervous wreck.

"Steph! Hurry up now, I can see the bus!" Dad called.

"Coming" I called down, I grabbed my bag and ran down the stairs "bye dad" I said.

"Have a good day" he said, pulling me in for a hug, I wriggled out of it and left the house, giving him a wave through the window.

The bus wasn't here yet, it was still 7:35 I still have 10 minutes. Why did dad make me leave so early?

I decided to walk to the bus stop and I stood there looking around. My old bus stop was right next to a main road, nothing like this, which was as quiet as anything. I wish there was a seat though, these shoes are killing me. I decided to sit on the ground.

"bad idea" someone called behind me, I looked over and there was a girl walking toward me she looked quite young and she had big brown eyes and curly black hair.

"Why?" I said

"Because, you'll get a rock caught in your tights and it will rip them" she told me like it was obvious.

"I'm Alana" she said "just started here I'm year 7, what about you? Do you like the school, is it scary?"

"I wouldn't know" I said looking at her curious face "I'm new aswell, I'm in year 10"

I saw her eyes widen, she was only a little bit shorter then me, and like Imogen, she probably thought I was around 13.

Luckily the bus came and we both got on. Our stop was one of the first so there was a lot of free seats. I sat in the middle, because like my bus in London, I assumed the seniors sat at the back and the juniors sat at the front. Luckily, Alana didn't sit next to me.

When the bus was almost packed it stopped one last time and that's when Alicia and Lucy got on. Lucy looked mad about something and when she saw me she came storming over and sat next to me.

"What the hell are you playing at?" She growled at me.

My eyes widened "what?"

"Alicia said she saw you, on Wednesday with MY Harry, you do realise he's my boyfriend, so why don't you keep your slutty hands off?"
