        “Alyx! Come get some breakfast,we are leaving soon!” Yelled my mom from downstairs. I rolled over to check my phone “6:48” I said with a sigh. So I got out of bed, went to my closet, and pulled on a purple t-shirt and some skinny jeans with boots. It was my first day at a new school as a Junior , so I had to at least attempt to dress nice. I approached my mirror and went through my long  tangled brown hair with a brush then I straightened it and did a little waterfall braid to it, then I grabbed my makeup and started applying my mascara and eyeliner. When I finally finished I walked downstairs where my dog Jack was waiting for me along with my mom and younger sister, Summer. I could smell bacon and french toast cooking so I grabbed a plate, and ate quickly. Within’ 10 minutes we were all piled into my moms black SUV on our way to school. I already had my license I just didn’t have my own vehicle, so that meant I was stuck being brought to school until then.


We dropped Summer off first since her school was closer. I watched Summer’s golden blonde curls bounce as she ran into the school all happy and full of joy. But then, there was me. I just wanted to go home. We only moved here because my dad died in Iraq and my mom wanted us to get a “fresh” start. Even though Summer and I were perfectly fine where we were. When we got to the high school I got out of the car and threw my underarmour bag onto my back, waved goodbye to my mom, and walked inside. As soon as I  walked through the door a very preppy, pretty blonde girl approached me, who looked kind of like Summer.

“Hi! My name is Molly.” announced the very perky blonde “My names Alyx, i’m new here.” I said back. “Nice to meet you Alyx, I’m having a party this Saturday and you should come so you can meet everyone! It will be tons o-” The first period bell cut her off. So I had to get to class. When I walked into Mrs.White’s Algebra class everyone stared at me, I walked to the very back of the room and sat down. As soon as class started a boy walked in wearing a football jacket with the name “Luke Cunnings” in big bold print on the back. He walked to the back of the class very quietly and sat in the chair next to me, which made a funny creaking noise when he sat down. We both started laughing uncontrollably “Excuse me, Ms.Thompson and Mr.Cunnings, is there something you guys would like to announce to everyone that you think is so funny?” Mrs.White said in a very stern voice “No thanks, we won’t interrupt you again.” said Luke, then he looked at me and gave me a wink with his piercing green eyes.
