Everything Has Changed (taylor Swift adoption story) COMPLETED

26) The First Day

One Week Later

Paige Pov

It is the first day at my new private school today. I couldn't sleep last night because I am so nervous. Normally I would be hiding underneath the covers so I don't have to wake up.

I am nervous for multiple reasons. In this middle school they start with 6th grade instead of 7th grade. So everyone probably already has friends. I can't make friends as easily as Taylor does. Not a part of my personality I guess.

Also not to mention I should be in 8th grade. Like is everyone going to know that?

Right now I am just sitting in my bed scrolling through tumblr. I wish there could be a school where only Swifties were allowed to go. All these people like me for me.

It will be another fifteen minutes until Taylor comes to "wake" me.

She picked out which uniform I am wearing today. She likes choosing outfits and I don't find it. She choose out the blue,green and red plaid shirt with the blue polo shirt. I mean I like it, I wouldn't wear if I didn't have to though.

The one good part though is they allow any shoe as long as it is closed toe. So I get to wear my favorite black booties for the first time after my injury. Which is also completely healed.

I hear a little click as Taylor opens the door to my room.

"Oh you are already up? I thought I was going to have to drag you out of the bed." She says.

"I couldn't sleep last night."

"Oh honey why not." Taylor comes and sits next to me.

"I am just nervous."

She than grabs my hand which makes it stop shaking. I didn't even notice that it was shaking. Taylor seems to always know when it is.

"Darling it will be ok. Don't worry. You will make friends." She says.

"Will people really want to be friends with the girl who had to stay back a grade?" I ask her as my voice cracks in between the words.

"That won't matter to people who will like you for you."

"Why can't you just homeschool me or I use an online program." I say "it worked during the summer."

"I'm sorry but you have to go to school. I am going to be at the studio. Austin is recording or practicing scenes for his movie. And Mama and Papa Swift are in Nashville."

"Oh ok I understand. I don't have to ride the bus right?"

"No eiether I, my driver or maybe Paul will pick you up." She says. "I will let you know who before we leave. Now you have to get ready. Do you still want to curl your hair?"

"Yes I love when you do my hair." I say getting out of bed. "I'll be ready for you to do it in fifteen minutes."

Taylor shuts the door and I get dressed. The school doesn't allow bold makeup so sadly no classic red lipstick or black. Not that I have any black ones. Just basic plain makeup. It is kinda boring to me. It feels weird not wearing a red lip color. As I have all tour and well I guess ever since Taylor adopted me.

"Taylor I'm ready." I shout and then I hear her heels clicking down the hallway.

She curls my hair and then I pack my backpack up. At least the school also does not care what backpack as long as it is just a solid color. So I get to use the red leather one Taylor got me.

I walk out of my bedroom. Taylor is sitting at the kitchen counter.

"You ready?" She asks me.

"Just have to put my black ankle boots on." I say.
