I stood frozen looking up at the classroom door printed with a huge '12' on it, I sighed. What if they don't like me what if I get bullied!? I shook my thoughts off and turned around when I heard my mother's soft voice comfort me. Her brown eyes sparkled with sincerity,"sky, everything will be fine don't worry sweetheart just go in"and with that she lightly nudged me towards the door forcing me to step in.I gasped when I stepped in, the classroom was green and had an open middle where you could see right through to the other class, the room had groups of red desks with other kids at each of them.The walls were lined with windows hiding behind perfectly cleaned white curtains, and at the far end of the room sat computers. My eyes darted everywhere until they finally landed on the teacher or should I say my teacher.She gave me a warm smile and signaled for me to walk over to her."ok hun you should be fine today, I have to go to work now be good alright?.".I nodded as my mum kissed me on the head,smiled and walked away.I breathed an unsteady mouthful of air at a vain attempt to calm the pounding of my heart. I turned back to face my new teacher just to spot her signal once again for me to walk over. oh lord. I started towards her absorbing the embarrassing feeling of everyone's eyes burning through me.I felt so nervous but I saw a few familiar faces from primary and the tension I was holding, eased off, a tad. When I reached my teacher I noticed she was wore red glasses over her dark black eyes. Her skin was just darker than tan and she was in about her late forty's to early fifty's."hello dear,you must be sky?". She asked, a little too judgmentally. "uh, yeah"I nodded with a weak smile. "well sky, I'm Mrs. Katherine, I'm your all subjects teacher" She stands up from her chair and claps to get the classes attention. Did I mention I am a year 8 and I moved intermediates? But all of the kids here went to this school last year. The quiet muffles in the class slowly die down, and again I feel everyone's eyes on me, I nervously smile. Whaea katarina stands next to me to introduce me. "Room twelve, this is Sky Shortland our newest class member, she has come from Manaia view intermediate, please make her feel welcome. Sky dear tell the class a bit about yourself." What the fuck!? I mentally curse to myself."umm....hello room 12...uhh m-my name is sky" I nervously look around at all the kids smiles and then continued but this time in Maori, the new Zealand language. "Tena koutou katoa ko Sky toku ingoa...." When I had finished talking I yet again looked around at everyone, the teacher,with a big grin on her face,a large group of girls smirking and a few tables of boys smiling. My gaze stopped and my heart skipped a beat when I saw the most alluring sight, there sitting amongst a group of his friends was the most hottest boy. Holy shit he's beautiful. I lock gazes with him and he gives me a heart melting smile. I blush.
And he shyly looks down,breaking our intense moment.
