Chapter 1 - New Beginnings-

• Maya•

"Mom I'm headed to school, Please don't work yourself too hard." I say my voice elevating higher in the mostly vacant apartment. I hear a sudden thud and find my mom hovered over a box of fine china. Mom was always Interested in foreign products. She quickly looked up and smiled widely, as wrinkles showed around her eyes and her dimples deepening. As she smiled brightly at me.

"Don't worry Maya, I got this taken care off and My, I knew that uniform would suit you so much. So this is your first day at St. Marie Academy, do your best and don't forget to smile." She said leaving me standing there surrounded by nothing but boxes as I heard her footsteps Echo through the empty apartment. Will she really be ok? Oh well She's well.. My mom she's not to be underestimated.

I moved here recently from Minnesota and Vermont seems kind've not well suited for me. The air is more dry then Duluth. So this is how this happened. Mom's in a trading business and her job was transferred to Vermont. My friends found out and threw me a goodbye party which caused me to be drenched in my sorrow the whole car ride. I was sulking until my mom told me that this was just a temporary move and we'll go back soon.

Well I guess I thought that was ok but then again New state, New school And new people sounds so depressing to me. I don't want to go but I have to. This uniform is not good at all. I despise it so much. The skirt is too high the shirt is blue my least favorite color. But I do like the black blazer that has the school Name encoded with it.

All this thinking made me realize that was I really going to be ok. I looked up at the blue sky and it was powdered with little pieces of white and grey. The sky harmonized with my mood today. It was majestic I felt nostalgia all around.

My thoughts were scattered when a blaring sound knocked me out of my senses. It was a car, that stopped an inch away from me. My eyes widened and everyone started to gather. As soon as it stopped somebody stepped out. It was a guy he looked liked he was my age. His hair was messy and it looked like his hand went through it countless times. His eyes were blue and were fixated on me. They looked pretty cold. I noticed something about his clothing that surprised me. He was wearing the same uniform as me but a male version. His tie was hung loosely around his neck his shirt was untucked he has his jacket casually hung over his shoulder. In all he looked careless and looked sexy doing it all. I didn't realize I was staring until he spoke up.

"Take a picture it will last longer." And with that he didn't spare me another glance he got in his car and drove right past me. Heat rose to my cheeks. How dare that egotistic bastard say something like that. He ruined the moment.

"Take a picture he says, it'll last longer he says." I say mimicking his voice, how annoying I realized my surroundings I was still standing in the middle of the road. It looked like people were yelling at me as their cars lined up in front of me waiting for me to move.

Shit.

I started crossing the street faster mumbling incoherent words. My cheeks felt like they were melting from all the embarrassment. I didn't like it one bit. I started huffing and puffing I was out of breath from all this crap. I decided to start making my way to school.

I safely made it to the academy without getting lost. The school was really big. It looked like a castle, it was built with dark red bricks that looked worn out and it had a fountain of water right in front of it with a rose garden circling around it. My jaw dropped instantly, it seemed like I was in Beverly Hills. The students were perched on the floor and benches or were just walking around. I never thought a school like this existed. No wonder they call it a private school.
