Olivias POV:
First day of school
My alarm clock rings at 6:20am.
It's hard, but I get up, trying to see everything positive. A new start. Thats what I want. The holidays were already amazing.
And the official new start starts today.

-My mom and I used to live in a small city in Texas. We were alone, she didn't knew who my dad was. But we were happy.
I mean, kind of. I don't know what I have done, but I always got bullied...since the first day of high school. Maybe because I had a really bad acne? Because I had braces? Because my body looked like a four year old? I tried to stay strong - but I came home crying so many times. I never told my mom, she was already worried about too many things. She was working much, then she started to date someone, I was around 14 years old. Brian. He moved into our house after one month dating and pretended that he would work all day long, my mom believed him. But he never worked. He stayed at home and got drunk. He drank much. He even punched me many times...but I haven't told anybody. Why? Because I was ashamed. I was ashamed and my mom was happy, what would I have been for a daughter, if I have told her that her "love of her life" punched me? She wouldn't be happy anymore. I never wanted to risk that.
She deserved to be happy...And then, a half year after I turned 16, my mom died because of cancer. She never told me that she had cancer...
I was heartbroken. I am. But I couldn't live with Brian anymore, so I decided to ask my aunt if I could live with her and my cousin, Patty.
So yeah, here I am now.
And this is going to be my new start. In Atlanta. I don't have braces anymore, my acne. is fully gone and my body...I feel kind of confortable in my body for the first time of my life. I'm not completely happy - I could still loose a little weight, but I like my boobs and my ass...okay wow, lets go on-

I get out of the bed to stretch my arms, then I take my phone, go to the bathroom & put some music to shower on.
I brush my teeth and put a mask on to my face while I dry my dark brown - mid length hair. I don't have the time to straighten my hair, so I just brush it and decide to wear my hair open and wavy, aka natural. I wash the mask down and put a light makeup on : concealer, clear lipgloss, bronzer, highlighter, mascara, then I fill in my eyebrows and use a light champagne eyeshadow, to let my blue eyes stick out (if you know what I mean haha)
I use deodorant and perfume, then I go back into my room to put some clothes on.
I don't really wanna stand out...but if, I wanna stand out in a good way.

I packed much stuff into my rucksack, I wanna be... prepared for...everything I guess.
I put my earrings in and my shoes on, then I grab my rucksack and my phone to go downstairs. My aunt aka my new "mom" angie
isn't home...yes, I call her mom. I mean...kind of?
Patty is already sitting at the table on her phone.
"Good morning Pat!" I say motivated.
-"Oh hey, good morning livia...sis? Haha, Here...we can just eat cornflakes for breakfast, I have made you and me a little lunch pack for later...Nonnie will pick us up in like 10 minutes, I hope thats all okay?" She says.
I sit down and make my breakfast.
"Its more than okay...thank you so much, but you really don't have to do that..."
-"Of course. You and nonnie were the only ones who have been there for me, you're my family. You understand me, like...really understand me. That bullying thing and stuff...but you look great. You really do.."
"You look so good too, honestly. Well, lets just have a great new start?" I say.
-"Oh yes girl!"

So we just eat and talk until Nonnie comes to pick us up. I already know Nonnie, I have met her a few times...she's pretty nice, but...I don't know, she likes to act like...I don't know, like Patty is her girlfriend? Thats weird. Anyways...

We're driving to school and I'm super excited. I just hope that it won't be like the past years...

When we arrived school and got out the car - Patty and Nonnie were gone. An Asian boy I have seen before in a little shop pulled them away to "talk"...Now I can't find them anymore and Pattys phone is turned off.
Whatever.
I just go straight into the school...nobody cares. Some people are looking at me...one girl even points at me. Is that good or bad? But nobody says a word...thats good.
My first class is biology, and I don't know where these biology rooms are. Like...I've already searched 15 minutes and class is about to start in 8 minutes...
I walk and walk but I can't find any biology room. I text Patty, but she's not answering.
"fuck" I whisper, looking at my phone... walking accidentally into another boy. Perfect first day? Well done Olivia. Well done.

"Oh my god, I'm so sorry!" I say hysterically, hoping the good looking guy won't get mad...
-"Oh, hi...its okay. Are...you new? Are you searching for something?" he asks.
"Uhm...yeah. Just moved here and...my first class is biology, I don't know where any of these rooms are."
-"Biology class with Mister Criel?"
"Yes!"
-"Same, so...Just come with me, we can go to class together. I'm Brick by the way." he says.
"That'd be awesome! Thank you so much...I'm Olivia."
-"You're welcome, Olivia...anytime." Brick smiles.

His smile is...gorgeous. I just smile back, then we talk for a moment until we arrive the classroom.
Brick goes and takes a seat...I don't know where I should go. There are those partner tables I usually had in chemistry...and I don't know anyone except Brick...well I don't even really know him.

-"Olivia? Wanna sit here?" Brick says from his place.
"uh...sure." I answer, trying to sound 'cool'. But deep inside of me, I'm freaking out. Nobody ever asked me to sit next to him or her...until now. And then its the good looking guy I have met 10 minutes ago.

I take the seat next to Brick, put my rucksack down and pack out my suitcase and an exercise book.
The teacher, Mister Criel was just coming in...but before that a girl comes towards me. She looks pretty...But what she said was not.
-"Oh hi Brick, thats my place, remember?" she says, looking at me. Not at Brick.
"Oh no Magnolia. This is the new year...thats not your place. If you would have wanted that one, you should've come earlier." Brick shuts back.

"Everyone, please take a seat" the teacher says.

-"See it. Got a new boy anyways. Oh, a man. I meant a man. And you...you got this bitch? You could have get me but you decided to take the cheaper version, right? Got it, idiot!"

I just look down. This Magnolia or what her ugly name was is a bitch. She doesn't even know me...what gives her the right to judge...How she acts is called bitchy!

"Yeah bye." Brick says annoyed, waiting for Magnolia to go.

The teacher starts the lesson.

-"I'm sorry." Brick whispers.
"For what?" I whisper back.
-"For Magnolia. She's mean..."
"Who is she? Your ex?"
-"Yeah..."
"Oh, okay..I should be sorry."
-"Haha, she wasn't always that bad."
"...good to know I guess."

That was kinda awkward.

Biology isn't that bad actually...

-"Olivia?" Brick begins at the end of the lesson.
"uhm, yah?"
-"Can I get your number? I mean, we could stay in contact then, you know?"
"yeah, sure."

So, I gave him my number and got my first friend ever.
I mean I guess he's my friend...never really had one before.

want a next part?
