Love me Tender (Stuart Sutcliffe & John Lennon) ~Rewriting this~

Chapter 1

Lucy's POV:

Today is my first day at the Liverpool college of art. I don't really know if I wanna go there. Actually I'm pretty scared of all the new things that are waiting for me there.
I thought when I stood in the bathroom and cleaned my teeth. Worriedly I stared at my own reflection in the bathroom mirror. It was obvious that this day wasn't going to be any good. Slight fear was written all over my face and exactly that would make me vulnerable. It was always the same.
People always saw that I was nothing more than an extremely shy girl with social anxiety.. They always made fun of me and used me.

That was the main reason why I had to go to another college from today on.
In my old school a gang of teddy boys bullied me and almost made me commit suicide so my parents organized my change of schools.

But I didn't expected the new college to make me feel any better. I mean, I'd have to start new. My only friend I ever had wasn't with me anymore and I had to talk to new people, build up new social bondings.
You might wonder why I would worry about that. Hm, let me explain.
How I already said some sentences ago; I have social anxiety. I am always frightened to bother or bore other people by talking to them. As soon as someone pays attention to me, my palms get sweaty and my heart beats faster than when I've been running for five minutes, my voice cracks and I start stuttering. And all those embarrassing actions of my body make it even worse, making me want to disappear immediately.
You see, talking to others is pure horror for me.

After a few minutes when I thought I was ready for school I left the bathroom. I quickly glanced at the small watch at my wrist and gasped. The first lesson would start in five minutes. I really had to hurry now.

"Goodbye mum!" I shouted to the kitchen as I hurried out of the front door, trying to be at least not too late.

~later at the college~

Like expected I was too late and ran around in the huge building, searching the right class.
Damn! My first day at a new school and I wasn't even on time. My future class mates will be staring at me. Not enough that I was new in their class and they'd stare anyways... No! All the attention that I hated so much would be on me. They would think so bad of me...
And now I didn't know where to go. This day was ruined already and couldn't get any worse.

But in the next second, life showed me that there could always be a worse case...
All of the sudden I bumped into a tall guy who wore dark grey pants and a black sweater. As I looked up in his face, I saw that he was wearing a pair of black sunglasses even though they were not necessary at all since the college wasn't a beach or whatever. His hair was combed back to a majestic quiff and it suited him pretty well. I have to admit he was actually quite good looking.

Anyways my oh so loved social anxiety kicked in instantly and made me do my usual reactions that I always showed towards persons.
Feeling my cheeks get red and hot, blushing like mad, I stuttered shyly.
"I-I'm so sorry. Hopefully I d-didn't hurt y-you."
