Then There He Was ✓

Chapter 2: Highschool or Death Zone

I woke up to the bright light streaming in through my open curtain and temporarily blinding me.
I must've forgotten to close it last night.

Then it hit me like a bad odour, today is my first day of senior year at a new school. And just like that ladies and gentlemen, my mood dampened.
I stood up and blindingly reached for my curtains making sure to shut them properly before anymore light could escape into my room.

Just as I was about to go to the bathroom I got a glimpse of my alarm clock it read 5am as five freaking o'clock what was I doing awake at this time.

Oh well it's no use I'll never be able to fall asleep again, might as well start preparing. Besides I was the one who wanted to wake up "bright and early".

Oh how I wish I could take back that statement, I said it in the spur of the moment because I hated school, highschool the most.

I sighed heavily and then scurried my brooding as to the bathroom brushed my teeth and took a nice long shower. Might as well make use of my time.

I skipped out of the bathroom and picked my clothes for today which consisted of a black button-up leather skirt, and a black and white long sleeved crop top paired with my thigh length fish net stockings and black ankle boots. I then stuffed my other necessities in my black back pack.

You were probably not expecting me to dress like that. Well I always thought I had good fashion sense, that and the fact that I went to fashion camp.

Another reason I was dressed like this was because I wanted to make a good first impression. Didn't want to be bullied before I even started the school year.

Since I still had a lot of time I decided to paint my nails while listening to music. Music has always helped keep my nerves in place with that said you'd think I listened to some quiet and lucid music.

No uhh it doesn't work for me, I like rock music raps and and loud heavy metal music just not obnoxiously loud though. I Know it's pretty unladylike but that's who I am.

I glanced at my alarm clock and saw it was a little after seven. I better start making my way to school then can't be late on my first day now can I.

I went down to see my mom and brother at the dinning my mother sipping on her coffee and reading a news paper while my brother was all but swallowing his toast whole. How does he do that I thought.

"Morning," I greeted kissing my mother's cheek and ruffling my brother's hair.

"Morning sweetie," my mom replied

"Sammy why did you ruffle my hair, how am I supposed to get girls looking like this," he said with his mouth full the whole time. I cringed in disgust.

"Well you certainly won't be getting any girl if you eat with your mouth full and more or less like a dog," I told him grabbing an apple and a breakfast bar.

I wasn't really in the mood to eat seeing as my nerves were beginning to kick in and oh, did I forget to mention that I am really sarcastic like seriously how can I be so socially awkward yet not know when to shut my mouth.

If I ever get the chance to talk to people, my sarcasm usually pisses them off. Lucky for me, I've spent my life avoiding any sort of communication with people. Only my family, Nora and Trent knew I was sarcastic. I was like a whole new person when I was with them I really miss them.

"Later guys," I said ruffling my brother's hair once more. I turned just in time to see him give me the finger.

I laughed as I made my way to my hand me down black BMW. It was my father's and he barely used it so I don't mind.

"Have fun at school sweety," my mom called. I snickered hatefully at the irony of her statement. School and fun should never be placed in the same sentence.

I hoped into the my car and reversed out of our driveway. My BMW was nothing too flashy but I loved it with all my heart.

My mom was taking Ben to school so they'd be living soon. Naturally I'd have to take Ben but I guess they understood that I needed some space if I was going to make it in one piece to my school.

By the time I was nearing my school, I was well past a nervous. Like someone was going out of their way to help me I saw a coffee shop around the corner close to my school.

I absolutely love coffee and the fact that it helped calm my nerves was just a bonus. I ordered a cappuccino with lots of whipped cream.

While I wait for my coffee, I try to discreetly scan the shop. It is not too big of a shop but it is packed with teenagers my age probably attending the same school I was headed to.

I guess I'm not the only one who needs a douse of caffeine on their first day of school.

When my order was ready, I got it and make my way back to my car.

A couple of minutes later and I was pulling into the parking lot of the school, looking for a suitable place to park. I take some time to assess the Highschool I'll be attending now. Highschool? More like death zone.

With an exasperated sigh, I got out of my car and made my way into the hallway filled with blood sucking teenagers.

Too much? Well you can't blame. I could feel eyes on me like they already suspected that I was new here, and were just waiting for me to trip or get in one of those typical teenage accidents.

The school was huge. It was your typical private school, filled with snobby teenagers, I assumed. How great, this kind of schools tend to be the worst. As if that wasn't cliche enough they had to name it Kings and queens academy, more like jerks and bitches academy if you ask me.

My mom had already gotten everything I needed so I won't have to panic my way through the registration.

I went to my locker, dumped my bag in it and got my pamphlet for homeroom which the whole school was supposed to be having together.

I took out my map and confidently made my way to the hall we were supposed to be settled in.

Well if you call me looking down at the map with shaky hands and thundering heart trying not to get lost confident, then well you know. . . . .
I suppose if I followed the rest of the students, I wouldn't get lost since we'd all be in the same place.

It was a huge school with average number of students so I won't be surprised that we would be able to fit into one hall.

With a smile making its way to my face at how things where going great.
I wasn't looking at where I was going and ran into a wall or so I thought.
The thing I ran into was hard enough to make me fall on my butt my map and pamphlet falling from my hands and my coffee spilling on whoever it was.

Oh shit, coffee. How could I forget I was holding that. I heard the person yelp lightly and then I realized that my coffee was still hot. I'm in deep shit I thought to myself, quickly scrambling to my feet.

I was about to apologize to the person but when I looked up my apology got stuck to my throat and I stood there staring at them as he held his white now brown coffee stained shirt away from his boy giving me the iciest glare I've ever seen despite the fact that his eyes were emerald green.

If I thought I was in deep shit before well now I was just plain dead.
