 "I love you, Aria.."  a familiar voice said.

Then some loud honk went on, outside on the streets. That made me buzz awake in a flash. I didn't even know what in Earth I was dreaming about.

I rubbed my eyes as I turned on my phone. I just realized that I didn't set up my alarm clock when I arrived. I knew something was missing.

The time on my phone said 8:10. I had only a few minutes to get dressed and head to school, due to that it starts at 8:50. 

I quickly fumbled through my wardrobe, trying to look for something appropriate to wear. I came across a Vero moda, printed sleeveless blouse, black ankle length leggings, and navy blue vans. I decided to put it on as fast as I could.

I quickly brushed my hair, letting it loose, having the same hairstyle as yesterday when I met Luke, while rapidly slipping on a Nirvana bracelet. I grabbed my bag, which was a black Herschel backpack, with dots printed over. I went to go grab a book off my shelf, trying to select quickly from the ones Sadie got me the the ones I brought to Sydney personally. I grabbed the book 'Perks Of Being A Wallflower' by Stephen Chbosky.

I barely had anytime left for breakfast, so I just grabbed a nutri-grain bar off the counter and ran outside. I ended up being in luck cause Sadie was waiting for me the whole time in her minivan. I ran up to her minivan and got in quickly as I mumbled "You could've woke me up earlier."

Luckily, she didn't hear.

 We didn't talk about anything during the ride, just silence while blasting Panic! At The Disco on the radio. I wanted to scold her for not waking me up still, but I wanted to try to not be so stubborn. 

As soon as we arrived, I was anxious to actually get inside the school. "Bye Aria!" Sadie said, as she waved at me. "Bye!" I responded.

I quickly head out of the car, trying to not miss the first few minutes of the first day. I ran all the way inside, as the students were still in the hallway, leaning against their lockers, chatting. 

Thank lord I made it here on time. 

I didn't know where to start and how to begin. I had a kind of empty backpack, due to that I haven't got my textbooks and homework yet. I didn't bother to even go to my locker as well, since I found no proper reason. So I decided to go find Luke, before the homeroom bell rang.

As I walked down these halls, I could see many other students, that I didn't even know, already having their own friends and soul mates. I felt lonely, as the tension reminding me of losing my friends from Manchester. I found Luke, sitting down, and leaning against his locker, with his ear buds on, looking like he was about to drift off into endless sleep.

As soon as I approached him, the bell rang as I ran away from Luke, without being able to say hi, just so I can look for homeroom as soon as possible.

 It was finally lunch, I was sick and tired from telling everyone my name was Aria as they asked. Some people complimented my accent, which I didn't even bother thinking I had one, since I was raised by an Australian-American parents who didn't have that little accent hidden inside of them. The worst part is that I barely even got started on my new book.

All the lectures seemed boring as normal, I already thought I was failing. The only lesson I enjoyed so far, was visual arts,I've spent most of my time painting and scribbling some random doodles and thoughts when I was younger. The lesson to me just seemed more interesting.
