It's 7 AM on Monday. I'm resuming at Flour Hill high school and I need to dress cool.

I went to the bathroom to take my bath and about twenty minutes later I was out and decided to look for what to wear,after so many options I went for a multi coloured crop top with black trousers and black sneakers.

I went to the mirror to get my hair combed after a while my phone beeped, it was time for breakfast, I went downstairs to take cereals waiting for my dad, when he came downstairs and said it was time to go I went back upstairs to carry my school bag.

A few minutes later we were on the streets of California heading towards my new school, I couldn't hold my anxiety, it all starts here.

We arrived at my school and my dad went into the principal's office while I sat at the reception,I took a magazine and made myself comfortable then a guy came into the room, he wanted to see the principal but couldn't, he was leaving when our eyes met and we smiled at each other then he came over to meet me.

"Hi" he said

"Hi" I replied

"I'm Fred Thompson "

"Lindsay Maxwell "I said practically blushing (so embarrassing).

We talked, he kept me company and said along the discussion that if I don't mind he could show me around the school, I was only smiling because I'm not sure what I'm going to say when I'm blushing so hard, he left after a while to attend maths class then my dad and the principal emerged from his office.

The principal told me the rules and regulations of the school,showed me my locker in the hallway and bid me success while my dad left promising to pick me up later in the day.

I went to my locker and started arranging my books when the bell rang and the hallway became crowded, a girl came to open the locker beside mine, she was putting on a blue mini dress and a pair of blue shoes, it was a nice dress.

"Hey, you are a freshman, right?"she asked turning to look at me

"Yeah "I replied

"I'm Fiona Dawson "

"Lindsay Maxwell "

"Wow,what a nice name "she complimented

"Thanks, yours too "I said smiling.

Just then a guy came to open the locker by my left and I waved at him, all he did was ignore me then Fiona tapped me.

"I don't think you would like it if his girlfriend comes at you "she said

"I don't think having a girlfriend stops you from talking to other girls "I said

"Think about it when you have the time, right now it's time for history class and we are late "

In history class I and Fiona had to sit behind the rude guy I came across and his so-called girlfriend, Scott and Madhur are their names (yeah Fiona mentioned it).

Madhur was wearing a black crop top with an high waist skirt and black heels, she wore black makeup plus she has long black hair.

I was still studying Madhur when Fiona nudged me to write something, as I opened my note to write, a paper dropped on my desk and I looked around for the person who threw it then I saw Fred and he said the letter was from him and I opened it:

How's school going? I hope you are
enjoying it here and Fiona is not giving
you troubles? Take care
XOXO:Fred 💓

I was surprised because I just met this guy few minutes ago he is sending me xoxo, I looked at Scott and he looked back and caught me staring, I couldn't move my eyes away from his and he stared back coldly then he looked away, I felt embarrassed but it felt like I actually started to like him.

* * * * *

It was time for recess, I went to the cafeteria with Fiona and another girl she introduced to me;Aimee Hopkins.

We sat with Fred opposite Scott and Madhur, it's kinda hurtful because they kept laughing every now and then, Fred asked me about my first day at school and I got carried away.

When recess was over, I went to my next class with Fiona and Aimee.

When we closed for the day, my dad came to get me.

"How was school today "he asked

"It was okay "

When I got home I met James playing his football in the field "Hey sis, how was high school?" He asked

"Just the way I dreamt it would be, are you okay with your new school?" I asked

"Don't have a choice "He said and shrugged and I went inside, I went into my room and took a shower then went back downstairs to greet my mum

"Hey mum" I said kissing her cheeks

"How are you honey? How was the first day of school?" She asked

"Well, it was okay, mostly about boys "

"On the first day of school?"she said suprised and I explained everything to her

"Just make sure you are careful "She said after I told her everything.
