Ellie's POV
"Ellie wake up!! You don't want to be late for your first day!" my mom yells from the kitchen down stairs.
Yay, first day of sophomore year, at yet another new school. So excited, NOT. After sitting in bed for five minutes, dazing off into the ceiling thinking of what my first day at another new school will be like, I finally decide to crawl out of bed and begin walking down to the kitchen. I still have unpacked boxes laying around in my room because we have only been in this apartment for two weeks now.
Once I get out of bed, I trip over an unpacked box, I fall to the floor with a big bang noise, hitting my knee off the door. Great, just how I wanted to start my morning off. I get up quickly and scurry down to the kitchen, still with my hand holding where I hit my knee off the door. I saw that my mom has made me breakfast, two slices of toast with peanut butter and banana slices on top, Mmmmm my favorite.
I finish up my breakfast and I take a quick glance at my clock and it's already 7:05am and I have to be to school by 8:10am. I hurry up to the shower, undress, and hop in as quickly as possible. When I get out I go to my room and throw on the clothes I had picked out last night. I decided to wear something simple, light blue shorts from Hollister that shows off my tan short legs, and a purple and white plaid shirt with a white cami underneath, both also from Hollister. I wouldn't say I'm the best looking, but I wouldn't say I'm the worst looking. I have all the right curves in all the right spots. And I've been growing my hair out for the past two years, now my long brown hair has made it's way too my waist right where I wanted it to be. I really like the color of my hair, it really brings out the green in my eyes.
When I'm finished getting ready for school, I run downstairs grab my bag and run up to my mom and give her a quick peck on the cheek while saying "love you, have a good day" before leaving.
"Love you too honey, have a good first day!" I hear her yell to me as I'm running out the door starting my walk to school. The school is only about a mile walk from their to our apartment, so I really only need fifteen minutes to get there.
----------------------------------------------
It's almost 8:00am, and I'm about five minutes from the school so I start walking faster so I can have time to figure out my schedule and know where my classes are before classes start. Once I get to the school and start walking up the stairs to enter, I get the worst feeling in my stomach. I feel so scared and nervous. I know I said I'm used to being called the new girl, but that doesn't mean I like it. I never like going to new school, I get judged often, and usually only make two friends.
I grab my crumbled up schedule out of my back pocket, and look to see where my locker is. I have no clue where any of the lockers are, so I gathered up enough courage walk over and ask a group of girls talking a couple feet away.
"Hi guys, my names Ellie Scott. I'm new here, and I really have no clue where my locker is. Do you think you could help me?" I ask.
"Oh of course!" they all say full of energy. I follow them as they lead my to my locker which seems like forever aways, and one stops by a row of lockers and says, "looks like this is your locker Ellie! My names Sam, this is Cassy, and that's Brooke by the way". Sam is wicked pretty, she is about a foot taller than me, she has long tan legs and really pretty long blonde hair that brings out her bright blue eyes. Cassy and Brooke are average height and both very petty, but not close to Sam.
"Oh my gosh, thank you guys so much", I say with a big sigh. "Oh anytime! Actually my locker is three down from yours. Here let me look at your schedule to see if we have any classes together," "looks like we have everything together but 2nd period!".
"Okay great! Do you think I could tag along with you guys to classes just for the first week or so, so I can get a hang of where they are?" I say with a half smile.
"Of course! Let's go to 1st period right now together!" Sam says still full of energy as the first bell rings, and we both way goodbye to Brooke and Cassy as they make there way to their first period classes.
"Okay!" I say with a huge smile plastered on my face, following Sam to first period.
