"Emily get out of bed right now! If you're late for school so help me!" So much for a good morning. I think to myself as I roll out of bed, checking the time on my alarm clock 5:30am.
Late my ass, I have to be in homeroom by 6:30am. I mumble at myself in the mirror. If you hadn't guessed I'm Emily the almost 18 year old who is about to start 11th grade. I know what youry thinking and no, that's not my mom who yelled to wake me up. Thats my aunt Claire.
I never knew my father, he was gone before I was born. I don't know if he even knows about me or if he's dead. My mom well, she is around somewhere and wants nothing to do with me. I live with aunt Claire and uncle Ryan now. I have only been here 3 months. My grandpa recently passed and I was living with him. He was like my mom and dad in one. The best person in the world. But thats a topic for another time. I have to get ready for school.
I think to myself as I leave my full length mirror heading to my bathroom to shower. A quick 15 minutes later I'm out of the shower standing in my closet picking out clothes in my robe. Takes me 5 minutes to pick black ripped skinny jeans, off the shoulder ripped tee that says breath, black and white adidas and my signature black and red leather jacket that says dream on the back. Going to my makeup table I quickly blow dry my hair and run a straightener over it. My hair is mid length ending at my shoulder blades.
Starring at my face in the mirror I try to decide if I need makeup. I put mascara and chap stick on. Checking the time its now 6:00am, I still have 30 minutes to spare. Walking over to my full length mirror I see my reflection. Average height 5 foot 8 inches, slender but endowed figure, blue hazel eyes, and deep brown hair. I'm not what most call hot but, I'm not ugly either. This years is gonna be fun I hope. New school with no drama, I can finally be me. Satisfied with my reflection I head downstairs. Walking into the kitchen Claire sits at the table as if waiting for me, nodding for me to sit.
"Excited about school Em?" she asks with a worried look. "Honestly Car I didn't think I would be but, recently my mind is telling me its a new beginning." I say looking at her with an excited smile. "I know with everything that has happened and me not being in your life before you may be scared to trust me but Em you can. I hope we can have a loving relationship if your willing to work on it with me."
Says Claire while looking down with a sadden expression. "Of course Car it will take time." I say with my smile not meeting my eyes. "I have to go don't wanna be late." I ramble on while walking to the door.
As I close the door I hear a muffled goodbye from Claire that I ignore. This is gonna be fun I think sarcastically to myself as I start to walk the 6 blocks to Waynesburgh High. I normally would take Pop's car but well hes gone and I'm far away from home now. Walking is fine, it gives me time to think about everything that has happened. I see the school a little ways down. Taking a deep breath can I really do this? Of course I can, At least I hope I can. Once I arrive at the school I stop, to nervous to enter. I can already see people looking at me and what looks to be whispering. Once I get up the courage I enter the old looking building.
Inside looks obviously like a school lockers and classrooms. Nurse to my left, office to my right. Heading to the office a small group of 4 girls catch my eye whispering obviously about the new kid. Wanting to let it be known I'm not one to mess with, I walk up to who is what looks like the popular girls "Hi I'm Emily Conns just moved here from New York. Do you know where the office is?"
I say while politely smilingly. I one hundred percent know where it is, I just want to see if they are the type they look like. "Um sorry but do I look like a information desk to you?" she responds pointedly while turning to walk away. I wanna make a huge entry today so here I go "Not more of a information desk, rather a bitch I might say next time you wanna whisper about someone make sure you know them first cause I don't play petty high school bullshit." I say with a well written scowl on my face and huge attitude in my voice. "It was so totally nice to meet you what was your name again?" I say making a point to mock her preppy tone. Little giggles and laughs could be heard around the hall as she stands shocked at my response a few seconds before replying
"Camilla and I'm not a bitch." As she huffs and walks away mumbling little nothings that couldn't be heard. "Couldn't fool me." I say rather harshly at her as she walks down the hall. With a bright smile on my face I turn around walking the other direction heading to the office. This new school is going to be so fun. I think to myself as I enter the office.
