The Silent Love; A Bal Story

Mal's POV

"Mal, pumpkin, you are going to be late for school!" I heard my mom yell from the living room. I made sure my shoes were tied and my hair was done. I smiled at my reflection.

"Coming mom" I smiled as I looked out onto the ocean. I was lucky that my parents let me pick my bedroom when we moved.

I grabbed my backpack and walked Into the dinning room.

"Es tu prêt pour l'école?" (Are you ready for school) My father asked me. He likes to speak in French even though my father, mother and I are fluent in French and English.

"Oui papa. Je suis in peu nerveux cependant" (yes dad. I'm a little nervous though)

"It's okay to be a little nervous my darling" my mom kissed my head and handed me my keys.

"Mom can I take your car?" She looked at me confused.

"Why don't you want to take yours?"

"I don't feel like being the girl who shows up to school with a Ferrari at 16. I don't even know why Grandpa left me his car. I got my license 5 months ago"

"He left it to you because he loved you. So take the car" my dad said and I nodded.

"Au revoir" (goodbye) I told both my parents and then left the house. I smiled as I could smell the salt in the water. When we lived in Versailles we only had our pool but now we live right in the ocean. I got into my car and drove to Malibu High School. It was my first day but these kids have already been in school for 3 months. I pulled up to the school and parked. I got out of the car and looked around. I think that I will fit in here, eventually. 

I locked my car and started walking. I got my schedule online so now I had to find my locker and then my homeroom. My locker is number 2389. I had no idea where to look. I decided to ask someone. I looked around for a teacher and I spotted one. She has short brown hair and wore all blue. I walked up to her.

"Hello, I'm new here and I was wondering if you could have me find my locker" She smiled. 

"Hi, Im Principal Godmother, I know it's a strange last name so most people call me Principal G." I smiled. She seemed really nice. "What grade are you?" 

"I'm a sophomore. My locker number is 2389" 

"Okay, follow me" We walked through what I'm guessing is the quad. "Sophomore Lockers are right through this door. You should find your locker near classroom 203" 

"Thank you" She smiled and walked away. I walked through the door and found classroom 203 and a few rows of lockers later I found mine. I opened it and looked at my schedule; 

Period 1-Art; room 608
Period 2- AP History; room 504
Period 3- Geometry; room 614 (ugh)
Period 4- AP French; room 206
Period 5-Chemistry; room 819
Period 6- English Honors; room 310

I smiled. I loved Art and I hated Math. I put my math, French, and chemistry book it my locker and then closed it. I took out my phone and texted my friend who was still in France. It was 4:30pm there. 

S=Sara

M- Hey Sara
S- Hey Mal! I miss you
M- I miss you too. How was school?
S- Boring. What about you?
M- Today is my first day
S- Good Luck
M- I'll call you later
S- Okay. I love you
M- Love you too

When i put my phone back into my pocket the bell rang. I walked to the 600 building. Lucky for me all the buildings had their number on them. I walked into the classroom and everyone looked at me. I walked up to the teacher.
