WAKE UP BITCH". the noise of my mothers trembling voice awakens my eyes, I dont know why my mum cant just be like the others mums that wake their child up in the morning by saying "wake up Tess" or even bring me in breakfast. I look up at the ceiling and face reality that today is my first day at a new school, just thinking about this situation gives me butterflies. I decide to get up out of bed because the two annoying problems of this day are not going to go away unless I face them. I sprinted down the stairs as I heard for the second time this morning, my mothers trembling voice calling out "WAKE UP BITCH". "Im coming Mum" I yell. I decided to eat breakfast on my way to my new school, as usual I eat a muesli bar. As I walk to school I look around at the unfamiliar atmosphere and wonder, is their ever going to be a time when I can experience what it feels like to have friends. I turn the corner and find myself at the school after a 20 minute walk. The school looks like a typical high school in this crappy suburb, you know you have your usual cliques in each area, the lads in the corner of the school wearing all their Nike gear, then you have the sporty boys usually found at the soccer oval or basketball court, then the drama queens also known as the skanks usually found anywhere where the boys are or where the closest mirror is to fix up their cake face, then the nerds that are located at the library playing computers or completing homework and then there was people like me, the ones would did not want to be in a clique, they just wanted to be friends with people without having a label but it was different for me because all my life i never had a friend that i could really trust because every time they would start rumours about me, that is the reason i left my old school, it was to hard to deal with all the bitching and rumours, so i told my mother about these incidents and she went down to my high school at the time and yelled to the principal "Tess does not deserve to have rumours made about her from these stupid skanky bitches who obviously have a shit life that they waste on by making other life's shit", 'aggressive' and 'crazy' were the words the principal used to describe my mothers attitude to the security guard, then the security guard came to escort my mother and me out of the school, but my mother was not going to leave without a fight so she grabbed one off her thongs off and started hitting the principal with it, she slapped it so hard across his face that you could literally see the sweat leap across the room, my mothers last move was a spin kick into his balls, then the security guard came into the thong fight and restrained her and escorted her out of the school and i left with her, so my mum thought that it would be better to move me to another school, considering the fact that the school obviously don't give a crap what happens to their students. I make my way up the steps of this new school, that I have no idea what it is called just as I look up I see the schools banner saying " Summer High". At least this school has a proper name compared to my old school which was called " Lake View Secondary College" considering there was no lakes even in the suburb whereas this school has a name that is reasonable. I walk inside the school and feel as if I am at my old school because there no one noticed me and here it the same obviously hear in this situation I can understand it but at my old school it's hard to accept the situation. I get the piece of paper out of my bag and the English book I will need for English, the piece of paper reads where the classroom is I will be in, as I read it, the bells go anyway so I continue reading the paper and it says I'm in "H2" which with my luck it's right in front of me, as I'm about to walk in the classroom, a boy coming from the opposite direction ahead of me, is sprinting my way and before I have time to get in the classroom he knocks me down onto the floor with himself, my book and piece of paper lays on the ground now, but I don't care about the stuff on the floor, because I am next to to a really great looking guy that i can't stop staring at, he has, dark brown long hair that he wears in a ponytail, he's skin tone has a tanned look to it and I can see he has some muscles which are bulging out of his t-shirt and I think he may be tall before I know it that amazing second is over and he says to me " I'm so sorry for that, I did not mean to make you get hurt" and I say to him "It's alright, it was an accident". Then he picks my book up for me and piece of paper and hands it to me and then he says " Whats your name?" I say "my name is Tess, what is yours?" He then says "my name is Ashton but my friends call me Ash for short" I say "that's a cool nickname" then I realise I'm meant to be in class and I say "um sorry I have got to get to class I guess bye" he then says "yeah, I gotta get to my Physics class and see you around".
I'm halfway through English and I start to think about the fact that I may have made a friend finally and that he was so nice and friendly. "So Tess can you tell me how to write an essay" asks my teacher. Oh shit he must have realised my mind was at another place. "Um I'm not sure at my old school, I never really got taught how to make an essay" I say. Hoping this will get me out of this dilemma, luckily I hear him ask someone else.
Before I know it the bell goes off and I am putting all my things in my bag. As I walk outside the classroom I see hundreds of kids walking in the corridor so I'm assuming it is lunch time. So I just follow all the kids that are walking towards that way which leads me to the school canteen. The school canteen is really just your typical school canteen, I look around in hope
