I own absolutely nothing!
Hey everyone! So this is my first story! Here is my first chapter, I hope you like it!
Today was the first day at my new school. It was the first day of second semester in my junior year. This is horrible I could not help but think. I never thought my parents would actually move after what happened. I knew that it was killing me, but I thought I was able to hide it so well from my parents. I guess I was wrong about that.
As I walked into the school I could not help but be a tiny bit hopefully. I hoped I would make friends and not be so afraid of everything in the world. I hoped that this place would be different. There is one thing that I knew not to hope for, I knew better then to hope for love. Love was not in the cards for me especially considering. As I was hoping for all these things, I guess I was not paying attention because I walked right into someone. When I looked up at a man that I figured was a teacher and I mumbled, "I'm sorry". I then looked down and began to turn away when the man questioned, "Miss James"? This took me by surprise because I did not know anyone at this school.
"Um Yes sir?" "Welcome to Tree Hill High School Miss James, my name is Principal Turner. It is very nice to meet you." "It is very nice to meet you too sir." "Miss James why don't you come to my office and we can get you a class schedule." "Yes sir." I really did not like the attention from the principal but I knew I needed to figure out what my class were going to be like this semester.
After walking into Principal Turner's office I took a seat in one of the two chairs across from his desk. As I looked around the room I could just tell that this school must have a ton of school spirit because there were banners everywhere for the Tree Hill Ravens. Mr. Turner said, "Now Miss James are you Haley or Quinn?" "I am Haley sir. My sister Quinn will be starting next week due to her Swimming State Championship on February 9th." "Alright Haley, here is your class schedule and I hope you have a good first day of classes."
As I walked out of the office, all I could think was that I wanted Quinney to be there so bad. As the tears started to well up in my eyes I ran into the closest room I could find. As I closed the door behind me I could no longer contain my sobs as I sunk down to the floor. After about five minutes of crying I began to look at where I was. It seems like it was a very small classroom... maybe a tutor center based on the table and file cabinets. I was just thankful that that no one was in the classroom.
After I picked myself off the floor I smoothed out my clothes, straightened my hair, and rubbed under my eyes so that I would look presentable. After I looked presentable I slowly sneaked out of the room towards what I figured would be my first class.
I went down three different hallways before I finally had to give up and ask someone. I saw a boy looking in his locker and figured I would just ask him where the AP Calculus class would be. I would have given anything to not have to ask him but I really did not have much of a choice. "Um excuse me? Can you tell me where Mrs. Johnson's AP Calculus class is." The boy looked at me and then looked behind me, I guess he was seeing if I was actually talking to him and then he answered, "Oh, um do you want me to just show you?" "Yea that would be great."
The boy closed his locker looked at me and then said, "My name is Jimmy by the way, you must be new." "Yea, my family just moved here, my name is Haley, Haley James." "Well it is nice to meet you Haley, I hope you like Tree Hill." "Me too" By then we ended up right outside the classroom door. "Thanks for showing me where my class is Jimmy."
By the time I walked into class I was only about five minutes late and walked up to the teacher telling her I was new. Mrs. Johnson said, "Alright, class... CLASS, this is our new student, Haley James. Now Miss James you can take a seat in the corner next to Rachel." "Alright, thank you", I mumbled before going to the corner of class toward Rachel.
At first glance I felt like Rachel was a Bitch, I was not trying to be judgmental but the look she gave me made me want to go back to the tutor center and cry again. I sat down in the seat pulled out my notebook and pencil and only payed attention to the lesson. As I was taking notes I could whispers around me and turned to Rachel to see her and another girl staring at me. I did not know what they were staring at it wasn't like I was that pretty and I knew I was no threat to them.
As I was thinking all of this the bell rang and I knew I ad to figure out where my next class was. The girl that had been sitting in from of my stood up, turned around and said, "Hey I'm Millicent, you're Haley right?" "Yea" "What is your next class?" "Ummm, let me look. It looks like I have AP US History next. I don't have that class, but let me just show you where it's at." "Thank you so much."
As I walked down the hallway with Millicent, I noticed so many things that I didn't notice before. In the main hallway there was a trophy case with pictures of all different sports teams and trophies from different championships. There were also signs on the wall for basketball games, woman's soccer, baseball, softball, and track. I had never been to a school that had so much school spirit.
I was still looking around at the walls and I ran smack into Millicent. "Oh my gosh I am such a klutz, that is the second time this has happened today. I am so sorry." "Haley it's fine, I know Tree Hill is a lot to take in." "Thank you so much for helping me out." "Your welcome. When do you have lunch?" I pulled out my schedule and replied, "I have third lunch it looks like." Great! So do I, you can sit with me and Mouth." "Alright, see you at lunch."
