And so my mom, sister and I packed up our whole house and decided to move to Mount Springs. My mom actually told me that it might be good for all of us to start fresh in a new place with new people. We got in the car and started driving. As we drove, I looked at the town one last time. This town will never see me again. This town brought nothing but negativity into my life. I'll never look back again. Landy is sitting next to me and playing with her toys. I listen to the music on my headphones and think about how my life would've been different if nothing bad ever happened. Friends, happiness, college and most importantly, love.
Mount Springs is about a 7 hour drive. I packed my books and my notebook. With 3 hours already gone, i get tired of my music and decide to continue my story. I write a few pages extra about what happened to Gray. I get stuck with what to write. I'm still to sad and broken. He was the only friend I ever really had. We went through tough shit together. I push my chair back and take a really long nap. So long that when I woke, we were five minutes away from our new home. I admired the large city as we started to arrive. Our house was only a few minutes away from the city.
We parked in our new parking lot at our new house. It was bigger and more modern. I already liked it. We went inside and like always my sister rushed to pick a bedroom first. I let her lick this time without arguing. I was too exhausted for more drama. After she chose her bedroom, I chose the bigger one from the two that was left. We started unpacking our boxes and within two days, we were settled.
It was Saturday night and I started looking at schools. Mount High. My mother enrolled me and my sister was getting ready for college. The next thing I knew, it was Monday morning and I was taking a shower. My last first day. Thank God. I ate breakfast and took the bus. As soon as I got on the bus, everyone stared at me like I had forgotten to wear my trousers or something. I just took a deep breath and took a seat. A girl comes from behind and plonks herself next to me. "Hi. I'm Lily. I see you're new. Nervous now are we" I look at her. "Hi. I'm Noah. Is it that obvious?" She laughs. "You're funny. I have a good feeling that we're going to be good friends." She goes back to her original seat and I look out through the window. "Just don't get to close to me." I put on my earphones and turn the volume up to maximum.
We arrive at school and I couldn't believe what I saw. It was kind of big and fancy. I got out and stared for a few seconds. Lily comes and stands next me. "Big isn't it?" I look at her and she stares at the school. "You know, I've been here my whole school life and it doesn't get old. Anyway, what's your first class?" I take the piece of paper out and search for my first period on a Monday. "Science. You?" Her eyebrow goes up. "Me too! Come on, let's walk together. Okay so one thing you need to know is that the teachers here are very strict but they're fun." I nod my head. "That's good to hear, because all my old teachers were just two-faced pigs." She stares at me not knowing what to say.
"Okay then. I'm lucky I wasn't there, cause I would've told them something mean. So did you just move here?" I nod. "Yeah we came on Thursday." We get into the building and there's lockers and kids all around us. "Okay so we have 5 different types of people. First type are the nerds. They're always in front of the computer trying to solve an equation of something. Then you've got the emo's. Just... stay away from them. They'll do ANYTHING. Okay anyway...Then there's the jocks. They're all hot and they're all dumb. Most of them at least. There's the loners who never want to talk to anybody no matter how hard you try." She arrives at her locker and takes out her science books. "So who's the last type of people?" The door goes open and everyone looks. 4 girls who are dressed like barbies come inside and everyone starts making way for them. "That's the plastic barbie girls. They're the most popular girls here. They have more than 50K followers on Instagram and I'm pretty sure they bought they're verification tag. Just please...don't go near them."
They walk past us and the pretty blonde girl looks at me and winks. Okay, so maybe I won't stay away.
