A/N: Hey everyone!!!!! This is our first time writing so enjoy!!! :))
RINGGGGGGGG!!
SMACK!, Angrily I hurl the thrice broken iPhone to the wall. Ugh I sigh as I get up from my bed and looked into the mirror to brush my silky blonde hair. "I look awful today" I tell myself like I've done everyday. I inspect myself in the mirror, gazing at my eye bags resting below my emerald and sapphire eyes. Looking at the time, I realize that I'm running late, really late, really really late. I throw on a blue t-shirt and sweatpants and head out the door. I run out to see the bus speed away. Damn it! It's only the first day of school and I'm already late! I walk the rest of the way to school, fuming. At 7:58 I finally make it to school just on time. I walk through the gates and already I can feel everyone's stares digging into my soul. I want to hide but I can't because I've got nowhere but here to go. I don't belong anywhere. Because I'm not human.
My name is Katerina Clark and I am a werewolf. Well, half really, my mom was one while my dad was a vampire. I know shocking right? In this town, Whitewood, everyone is a full fledged werewolf, except me. But no matter what no one must know the truth about my father, because if they do I die.
I walk through the halls contemplating my life until I slam into someone. It was a girl around my age who had chestnut brown curls, and chocolate brown eyes. She looked annoyed for a second before gasping and saying, "Hey are you the new student? I haven't seen you anywhere around before."
" Uhhh yeah I guess so" I blushed I was so nervous, I didn't really talk to many people back in my hometown. Back there, believe it or not, I was a complete loner. Because I wasn't like the other girls, who spent their time emulating "influencers" and talking trash behind each others back, instead I actually read BOOKS. And not twilight or anything but poetry like Edgar Allan Poe and Baudelaire that kinda stuff. Instead of embroiling myself in everyday drama and chasing after boys, I spent my time writing poems below the tree in my former foster home. I missed that place surprisingly. I never expected to miss it once I so boldly walked out and told my hag of a foster mom that i was going to live in my mother's hometown. But I still missed my foster family, my foster siblings though they were kinda bratty they still cared about me and unlike over there, now i'm truly alone.
"Hey are you okay, you've been staring off into space for a while, omg are you having a stroke or something?"
"Huh, oh no I'm fine, by the way I haven't introduced myself yet, I'm Katerina Clark" I held out my hand hesitantly, omg my palms are so sweaty!!!
" I'm Porsha, Porsha Ford, nice to meet you" she said shaking my hand excitedly
" Hiii, soooo do you know where Mr.Kavinsky's room is?" I reply, I feel so lost. God today I can't find anything! Even with the school map I'm completely hopeless.
" What a coincidence! I happen to be heading there for first period! Come on! I'll lead the way" She gestures to the room all the way down the hall
"Thanks so much I was worried that I'd be so lost on the first day of school" Words cannot describe how thankful I am to meet someone this helpful on my first day of school!
"Okay let's go before--
RINGGGGGGG
"Ugh we are so late" Porsha sighed, "Let's just get to class"
We enter class and everyone stares at us like we committed a murder. I blush and slowly run to the nearest seat and put my head down.It's only first period and already I wanna disappear. I really hope I don't cry. I swear I can feel everyone stares dig into my back. While biting my tongue I drift off, not caring if Mr. Kavinsky gets angry with me for sleeping in class on the first day of school.
"Hey wake up, class is over" a familiar voice stirs me awake and before I knew it, an hour passed by. Before I can say thanks, it seems that everyone has left the room and people from the next period start shuffling in. God I feel so groggy. I quickly grab my stuff and head out the door.
Out in the hall I'm so disoriented that I walk into an open locker. I awkwardly say I'm sorry and move on. I spend the next few minutes searching desperately for my next few classes. I'm so nervous. I wish Porsha could help me find the rest of my classes. Luckily I found each of them just in the nick of time. I go through my classes mostly awake but I barely care about any of them.
It's finally lunch and I head to the cafeteria. Once I get there, I look around for Porsha and see her. She locks eyes with me and waves me over to her table. I start walking towards her until I bump into someone, spilling my food on them. "Ow! watch where you're going! Geez now I have to get a new shirt god!" I look up to see an exasperated guy who seemed familiar. Somehow his dirty blond hair and hazel eyes seemed to strike a chord within me. Where had I seen him before? Whatever it doesn't matter now.
" I'm soooo sorry, I didn't mean to---"
"Wait do I know you?" He looked into my eyes with recognition. Little did I know that this one encounter would change my life.
End of Chapter One
