Emma's POV:
"Come on kid hurry up you'll be late and so will I."

Me and Henry have had some tough times recently. I've lost my job and had many places decline my résumé for work because I didn't go to college. So today is my first day at College!

I'm so nervous because I didn't get a normal high school and middle school life like other people.

"I said hurry up," I say louder with some temper in my voice.

"I'm coming!" He says as he's booming down the stairs.

"Grab your backpack and head to the bus stop..."

"Fine fine I'm going." He says as I slam the door behind us

"Why are you so nervous, you'll be fine. School isn't as bad as you'd think."

"Thanks kid, it's really sweet of you, but you don't understand I went from foster home to foster home and barely had any time to go to school regularly and get the full experience.. And when I did I would always screw it up by Lieing to everyone and saying how I was living in a-

"Bye mom tell me more after school," Henry yells as the bus pulls up.

I role my eyes and laugh to myself as I realize how much he's like his father Neal. That jerk! He left me and turned me in! I push the thought out of my head because I don't need anymore pressure today.

When I finally get to the campus I start to get really nervous. Everyone is so much younger than me and no one seems to know where their going either. I think about asking for help but then decide not to

Suddenly a devilishly handsome man comes up to me and asks me where hall 23b is. I blank out for a few seconds when I hear his accent I almost go weak in the knees. First he's handsome and now he has an accent! Momma want

"Oh, um I'm sorry this is my first day as well and- wait did you say 23b?

"Aye"

Oh god he said aye!

"Well same here maybe we can try to find it as well."

He gives a slight nod as we continue to walk.

"So is this your first year as a college student as well?" I ask curiously

"Oh-Uh well that's the thing I'm actually gonna be your teacher."

"Oh," I say as I feel my face flush red

"It's okay easy mistake, I came up to you because I thought you were a teacher, so it happens to everyone."

"Ya." I say awkwardly.

We're both silent until he asks,"What's your name?"

"Swan, Emma Swan"

"That is a very lovely last name, I've always like swans." He says and then smiles down at the ground like he's been embarrassed.

"Thank you. And you're Professor Jones, correct?"

"Yep that's me!"

We turn a corner and I see 23b. Thank god we're here! I mean it was nice to walk with a man this handsome but it was disappointing to find out that he was my teacher. That just officially ruined my day.

"Oh we're right here!" I say enthusiastically as I walk in the door. I look around and see only 3 other people in the class. I sit the farthest away from anyone that I can get. I've always been a lone wolf and never liked to socialize much.

In the next 10 min 7 more people come in to make the class a total of 11 people including me.

"Well hello class and welcome to classic literature-1. If this is not the class you were planning on taking at this time exactly then I suggest you leave." One person looks at their schedule gets up and apologizes while leaving the room.

"Alrighty then, now that that's settled let's start class."
