Endeavour's POV
"Ring ring", my alarm clock bellowed out its horrible sound that meant I had to get up and 'live life', by the words of Mum. Ughhhhhhh, why did we have to move to this new area in the middle of the term? Didn't Mum understand that for me this meant new school, new surroundings, new people and new 'friends'? I slowly got up out of bed, changed into my school uniform that seemed to be made of paper, contemplated whether it looked good on me or not (later deciding that it definitely didn't), skipped breakfast, brushed my teeth, threw my bag on my back, put on my headphones that was my way of politely signalling everyone to leave me alone and dawdled out the door saying goodbye to my mum. The bus whizzed past me at the stop and I thought, "this is a great way to start my first day at a new school in a a new place that I know NOTHING about". I knew it was going to get 'even better' because I wouldn't know what to do at school because of the weird timing of arrival. Of course we did try to contact the school for help but unfortunately the email didn't send or they flat out ignored me which is why my day was just sooooo much 'better' then what it already would've been. I sighed and started sprinting towards the train station.
Elijah's POV
I was walking towards the train station when suddenly a girl, around the same age as me, I assumed, bolted past me. Her uniform looked similar to the ones that the girls in my school wore. Her rapunzel-like hair was dyed purple over naturally dark hair from what I could tell. She let her hair out completely so that it was melting into the breeze. She had round black rimmed glasses. I could see all of this but I never got a glimpse of her face.
I looked at my watch and realised that it was only 7:30 and the train left at 8:00. It didn't make sense that a girl, who was very likely catching the same train as me, was sprinting to catch a train when there was 30 minutes until it left. I kept walking and I got a notification from my phone, it was my girlfriend Liana. She told me that she went to school early and she would see me there at the library with a '<3' at the end. I saw a ring on the floor and it was made of gold with a delicate amethyst jewel on it and I looked around for any potential owners but failed to find one, it would be a perfect gift for Liana's birthday in a few months. We'd been together for half a year and I already knew all her friends, her siblings and her parents. They're all quite fond of me and I think that they're all kind funny people with good personalities, but there was just one thing I was unsure of...
Liana's POV
"Sent". I sighed and and tapped my fingers on the table anticipating for an answer but I didn't get one. I put my phone down on the table and continued to study even though my mind was still focused on that message. 10 minutes later at around 7:45 I received a message saying, "Okay, see u later". Somewhere in my heart I was disappointed at the fact that there was no heart, but I put my phone down again. After a few minutes I got a notification of a heart emoji and I smiled and actually focused on studying (ew).
7:55am
Endeavour's POV
"Gosh darn it." I was standing there for like 20 minutes trying to catch my breath and rehydrate myself expecting the train to come by 'any second now'. There was no one there when I got there, I should've checked the train timetable. Ugh why was I so stupid. 10 minutes after I arrived was the time that everyone in my uniform began to pour into the station. It's like everyone was accidentally mocking me. Surprisingly, I didn't get any stares or weird looks or just anyone seeming to notice I was there but I don't really know if that's good or not. A loud blare of the train horn made me lose my train of thought (haha). I didn't know which entrance to go into. I scanned the groups of friends there were. The year sevens, I know that there's definitely a group of 'popular ones' that think they're entitled as hell, one no one notices and one that's full of kind people that are lowkey underrated, at least that's how it usually is. The seniors aka year 12s, can be really nice, can be really horrible, overall all know each other and some act like they are extremely entitled just because they are almost adults. Year 10s, that I am a part of, are confusing and most of us all all extremely helpful to year sevens and stuff, but there will always be that one annoying group. Year 9s, literally all so annoying and think that they're adults. Year 8s, like year nines but less severe. Year 11s are kind of just there, mostly nice though. I decided to go into the quiet carriage where no one really goes, with the exception of the people from the public and some people without friends aka me.
9:00am-School Starts
Phew. I managed to make it through the trip to school without losing anything, embarrassing myself out in public or dying, which are hard things to ace. The harsh bell went signalling that I had to start my first day of torture at a new school. I suddenly remembered that oh crap, I don't have a timetable, I don't know anyone, I don't know any teachers and I can't do anything about it. I sighed really loudly and tried to find a fellow year ten that didn't look too intimidating. I saw a boy who looked tall but was still wearing the junior uniform and went up to him nervously as I was what I would call a social rock, that's right not a social butterfly, a social r o c k . I went up to him, introduced myself, told him about my situation and asked him for assistance. His name was Elijah.
