"Be good and have fun at your first day of school...and try to make friends..." She handed me my bag and i headed out the door of my new house.

I need to take the bus to some school that's called Willows High...hah that's a really dumb name for a high school...

  I'm waiting by the bus stop, waiting in the cold is hard because i get sleepy and i can barely feel my fingers and toes. I look around and i notice the beautiful scenery around me. The red, orange, brownish tan leaves and the smell of the crisp air...Funny i thought i smelled sweets or some bread, probably not. It's probably because i was hungry, OR it was because i saw a bakery across the street from the bus stop! "Ugh! Where is my wallet? Please don't tell me that i left all of my money at home! I'm basically starving out here in the cold waiting for the  bus."

"Hello, welcome to Jolly's bakery where we serve bread, pastries and sweets!'"The lady at the cashier said smiling at me

"Ummm...What can you get on the menu for $1.27?" I looked down at the nicely polished floor... i felt my face get hot and my cheeks began to glow bright red. I saw that i couldn't afford any of the items on the menu because everything was so expensive! The nice lady just gave me a warm smile and showed me a little box full of mints of different flavors. My eyes widened until they couldn't anymore, I smiled and i nodded my head in agreement to buying the little box full of the assorted mints.

"Oh no, honey you can keep these as a welcome gift to Willows!" She smiled at me, I paused to look at her...

"H-how did you know abou-" I was interrupted

"I know because i know all the faces of everyone in this town and I've never seen you here before." With that i left and took the box of assorted fancy mints and headed back across the street when i saw the bus.

OH SHIT..... THE BUS, NO!!!

"STOP, PLEASE STOP THE BUS!!! STO-AHHHHH!" I stumbled on a crack in the sidewalk. I looked up and i saw the bus drive off into the distance, I felt a pain in my knee so i looked down on it and saw that i was now bleeding. I hopped on one leg to the bus stop and sat down tears welled up in my eyes as i searched through my pockets and my heartbeat was going faster than it was already..

THUMP-THUMP THUMP-THUMP THUMP-THUMP

"Wh-where is my little box!" I panicked

I know i put it in my pocket somewhere! Come on, it HAS to be here!

I looked on the seat... not there. I looked under the seat, not there. I remembered that i tripped on that crack where i skinned my knee... OH NO! I ran as fast as i could trying to retrace my path when suddenly.....

"WHOAAA!!!" I yelled at the top of my lungs

"EXCUSE ME MISS BUT YOU SHOULD BE WATCHING WHERE YOUR GOING!" A stern, cold voice said. I looked up to find a handsome guy about 17 with two men wearing black by his side.

"Um....H-hello"
