High School Story

chapter 2

Jade's POV

    I woke up in my room and looked around, then I remembered that I was no longer at home, I was no longer going to be home schooled, today was my first day at boarding school, I had a roommate, I had-  holy shit, I have a roommate, I stood up and looked over to the other bed at the end of the room, it was a guy and he already had his side of his room decorated and put up posters to his own preference.

Then I realised I hadn't even had time to arrange my belongings into the wardrobe provided for me then decided to do it after school today.

Then I took my time to look at him while he was asleep, he was very handsome, like the guys I saw in the movies, he had long eyelashes and a quite tan skin, his lips were full like he just kissed someone and he had brown curly locks that came down, he looked so calm while he was asleep though I didn't know how he looked awake, I still couldn't see his eyes cos they were closed-

"Keep staring at me like that and I'll call you gay"

Wait how did he know I was staring at him- his eyes weren't........aren't even open-

"Uhmm.....sorry just needed to know you are real, you see I have never had a roommate before, my name is Jade Robert and you are....."

I took the opportunity to look into his eyes, they were blue, cobalt blue, they were nice, I wish I had eyes like that.

" Yeah, it's fine, I am Cole, so are you not going to get ready for class or you are going to stand there looking at me like I'm some specimen?"

"Oh yeah, sorry, I'll go get ready now" he just chuckled and mumbled about me apologizing a lot or something along that line but seriously I was overwhelmed, I was happy, I was nervous, I was feeling so many emotions at the same time but then decided to pull my self together and get ready for classes.

I checked the clock it was 7:15am and I was told roll call started at 8 so I had about 40 minutes to get to class. I went to my bathroom and took a shower, combed my hair then went through my suitcase and decided on wearing a grey v-necked long sleeve shirt and and a navy blue crazy Jean. When I was done, I looked into mirror, and figured my lips looked dry, then licked my lips  and used my favourite cherry chapstick just to make them moist.

I walked out with all my notebooks for all the subjects I'll be taking and tucked my phone into my back pocket,then I figured I should leave since Cole was not in the room anymore or so I thought before he came out of his shower in just towel tied on his waist and water dripping from his hair and from where I was standing, I looked like they went just a little above his shoulder.

"Aren't you going? And stop staring, it's getting really creepy, I'm not gay"

I'm not gay also but didn't say anything, then I decided to leave so I could get my schedule and get to roll call early. But before I left, I looked back up to the clock and saw it 15minutes to roll call so I hurried up and went down the corridor to the receptionist.

She was the same woman who handed the key to my room over to me yesterday. She was slim and pale and had black long hair with brown eyes. She wore a  beautiful red dress that clung to her every curve. Yesterday she looked casual in just a shirt and and a pair of washed up jeans, she looked quite good and looked nothing more than 40.

" Hey you, Jade is it??" I nodded a yes
"you've come for your schedule, I guess?"
"Yes ma'am"
" good, I'll get someone to take you to your first class" she said in a nice way while handing over my schedule to me.
"Olivia, you're needed in the reception" she called into the intercom and then smiled at me not before handing the school map to me also. I mumbled a thank you but she seemed to hear me

" You're welcome, you seem shy, font worry everything will be alright , you'll get on just fine"

As if on cue, a very pretty girl who I assumed was the "Olivia" just walked up to the receptionist

"Hi miss Theresa. You called for me for me"

"Yes darling, we have a new student and he's a freshman, so as the head of the welcome committee, I thought it would be best if you showed him to his locker and to roll call even if it's about to be over, okay?"

"Yes ma'am," she said before turning to me and giving me a cute little smile
"Hi, I'm Olivia, I'm a cheerleader and the head of the welcome committee. I'm in sophomore year and I'll love to take you on a tour of our school. So what's your name? And a little about you, maybe?" Then she started walking and I walked fast to catch up with her due to the fact i was rooted to the spot when she started moving.

"Well, uhmm.......my name is Jade, Jade Robert. Well there's not much to say about me just that you're pretty and I've been home schooled all my life, I guess" I said looking down at my shoes still walking. I waited a few seconds then a minute then I decided to look up to her, her cheeks were rosy, she was blushing. I just smiled.

When she decided to talk she said "you don't look bad yourself, you're actually quite cute". She decided to change the topic so I thought until she said looking at her watch and then looking at me "here is your locker, it's close to my boyfriend's so I'll see you every morning I guess. Well let's get to roll call, it's just 4 minutes left or would you like to get to class first and then wait??"

I just shrugged and told her to go, that I could get to class my self. She smiled and waved at me before going into a room that was opposite about 5 to 6 lockers after mine.

I decided to empty my backpack a little, I took about 3 notebooks because be I figured be I could come back before lunch break.

When I was almost done, I saw a lot of students coming out of the same room which Olivia just went through. I looked in and it looked like it could be the gym. I just assumed it was end of roll call and roll call was held in the gym. That's so cool.

So now I needed to get to class, if only I knew where it was.

Hi
I know it's been a long time since I wrote on this book but I was just trying to make it better and to get a better chance of writing in a stable situation but I've finally had time due to the lockdown. Being away from school gave me some time to myself and for this book. I'm really thankful for all your efforts you guys put into reading this book and I was thinking of changing up the title of the book so if you have any title in mind that could be appropriate for this book please leave them in the comment box. Thanks a lot.
