Until Tomorrow -Larry au-

LOUIS

I walk through the door. The air is cold. The village is aglow. Here in this small part of Holmes Chapel, where I just moved, it is winter. I have to walk to the high school down the street.

I pull my black sweatshirt sleeves down so that they cover my hands. My long, caramel colored hair is in a gray beanie. I have my skin tight skinny jeans on and a pair of gray vans on my feet.

Shivering, I continue to walk down the street. Almost all of the houses seem to have life to them. There are lights on in the windows, smoke coming from the chimnies.

Then there is my house. My mum is never home. The heater broke two days ago. I honestly have no idea why I am not frozen already...

I keep on walking to the public school and am soon there. I see cars with people in them. I see popular kids with others surrounding them while they talk of some stupid party Friday while I walk by. It is Monday, so I thought today would be good to start school. I spent the Thursday and Friday of last week unpacking and being a loner in my room.

I honestly didn't mind it. But, now, with all these people who are taller than me, it is kind of overwhelming. There are just so many people.

I struggle to find my locker in the crowded hallway, but when I do, I see a couple people standing in front of it. One is blond with brunette roots and the other is a little taller with dark hair that is pretty long. The blond is pretty pale, whereas the dark haired guy is very tan.

I go up to where my locker and the two guys are chatting and stand about two feet away. The blond laughs loudly at something the darker skinned says. I watch them for a minute and a half when they finally notice me. But, during that minute I observe them. The blond talks loudly and laughs a lot. When he speaks, it is like he is 'throwing up the sentences' or saying anything and everything on his mind. He, also, sounds Irish. The darker skinned guy does not talk a whole lot. He seems more reserved. And when he does speak, it is quiet and has thought.

And when they notice me, it is the blond who says something to me. 'Are you new? Is this your locker? I am Niall and this here is Zayn. What is your name? I'm sorry for being in your way. My locker is right next to yours. Well I am assuming it is yours. You don't talk much, do you?"

The blond, Niall, pauses and looks at me expectantly. I stare at him. Zayn finally cuts in. "Hey, mate I think he doesn't feel like speaking...."

"Oh. Well why not? Doesn't everyone like to talk?" He looks at Zayn and then me again.

I still stare at him. "Ni, let's just go. He obviously is not wanting to and this seems to be his locker." Zayn says and pulls on Niall's arm.

"Ok. Well bye new kid who I have yet to learn your name." Niall shouts as he is dragged away.

I go to open my locker just as the bell rings. I internally groan because I am late to class on my first day. I throw my book bag in the locker and grab my books for history, my first period. Looking at the map I follow it to my class.

The halls are empty as I open the door. Everyone looks at me, eyes questioning and judgemental. The teacher stops the lesson and looks at me. "Ah. You must be Louis, the new student, no?"

She has an accent but I cannot tell where it is from. I nod my head and she points towards an empty desk. "You can sit there,Louis."

I see that there is the bubbly blond from earlier. He smiles at me as I sit in the desk chair. "Hello." Niall says quietly.

I smile slightly at him, but it probably looks scary.

"Can I see your schedule?" He asks.

I give him a questioning look and he says "To see what other classes we have together."

I open my mouth in an 'o' shape and give him the price of paper that I had slipped in my back pocket earlier. Niall's smile never leaves his face. He gets a pencil and circles a couple things. Then the blond gives me my paper back. "Circled classes are what I have with you."

I give him one last smile and then turn my attention to the board. The teacher wrote a quick time map of the middle ages. I internally groan and copy it down.
