What if they don't like me? Will I fit in? Am I even going to be noticed? All these questions filling up my mind. Today is the last day of summer break. I am going to Super Nintendo High School in Hyrule. Only the greatest go there. I just don't know how I'll do. I guess these are probably the normal day-before-the-first-day jitters.

One thing I need is sleep, so I need to go to sleep earlier than usual tonight.

As the clock chimed 10:00, I realized it was time to go to bed.

I lied down and as soon my head hit the pillow, I was fast asleep.

My phone buzzed. Over and over again. That must've been my alarm.

I stood up, still tired, decided what I'd wear on the first day. Eventually, I just slid into a light blue t-shirt, a black jacket, and blue jeans.

I grabbed a granola bar for breakfast, brushed my teeth, got all my school supplies together, and caught the school bus, just in time.

I looked around to find a place to sit, and I saw my friend Luigi waving at me.

"Hey, Luigi," I said, "What's up?"

"Not much. How was your summer?"

"Good. Yours?"

"Mario locked me out of the house for two and a half hours one day, but then I got him back by putting hot sauce in his spaghetti."

I laughed. "Do you know any people going to this school besides Mario?"

"Well, Mario likes this girl named Peach, and Peach's friend Daisy is here, too. There's a girl named Rosalina, a guy named Bowser, and a boy whose name is Link, who likes this girl named Zelda."

"Wow, so it looks like you know a lot about the students that will go here." I said.

"That's just a few of the hundreds in our grade."

That's really a lot of people that I'd be facing soon, because the school bus was pulling into Super Nintendo High School.

The bus driver pulled down a microphone and said, "Have a nice day!"

I grabbed my backpack, and stepped off the bus to see a lot of people.

Trying to not be pushed onto the concrete sidewalk, I managed to get to the front steps of the school.

From a few days ago, I got my locker and its combination. So I rushed over to it and spun in the numbers to open it.

For my homeroom class, I grabbed an empty binder, a book, and a pencil bag.

Once again trying to not fall down with all the people in the way, I paused before going into the room. Dr. Wily's class.

After about 10 minutes of talking to Luigi, everyone was in a seat.

"Welcome to my class. My name is Dr. Wily. Please, one by one and say your name and one thing about you."

"Hello, I am Mario. I love playing video games!"

"My name is Peach, and I dream to be a citizen of the Mushroom Kingdom."

A bunch of people went before it came to me.

"Hi, my name is Ethan...I love sports, especially baseball." I said slowly.

The last person was up already.

"Hello, my name is Rosalina, and I have been to space."

The class let out a laugh, but I didn't.

"Simmer, class. Now, go socialize with the class for the remaining time."

It seemed people didn't believe what Rosalina said. Since she looked so sad, I was going to go comfort her.

"Hi, Rosalina?"

She looked up.

"I don't really like that those people laughed at you. And if it helps, I believe you."

"Thanks," she said, "it's just, my mom died a little while ago."

"Oh, I'm so sorry. Is there anything I can do to cheer you up?"

"Could you sit here for a little while?" she motioned to the chair next to her.

"Yeah, sure."

She smiled and I saw she had piercing blue eyes. Blonde hair that was flowing far down her back. She was beautiful.

"I would never laugh at you." I said, trying to be comforting.

"Thanks." Rosalina grinned, just as the bell rung. "It was nice meeting you."

"It was great meeting you too."

I grabbed my binder, book, and bag and left the classroom. And as I approached my locker, I knew Rosalina would be on my mind all day.

Before I get to anything else, I'd like to make a few mentions to my inspiration for this story. Go follow @TheDJGoomba and @KarateChris12 and read their stories. I can't thank them enough for this idea. Also, tell me what you think about this so far! Chapter 2 should be up later this week. Anyways, as always, this is MasterTrainer96, and I'll see you in the next chapter.
