Chapter 1: aren't red heads supposed to be fun?
"Thanks for driving me to school mom" I smile at her and try to look happy even though all I'm feeling inside is dread." Are sure okay to start a new school today?" I open my mouth to reply but she continues talking "I mean you could always start when you're a little more settled down here" She looks at me; I shake my head and force another smile "It's fine mom, I mean it's now or never right." I pull her into a hug then exit the car. As I walk towards the school gates, I can feel the panic welling up inside me. I shut my eyes and take a deep breath, it's okay Lilah just breath. Reopening them and continuing to walk.
I go through the school doors and I'm greeted by an old lady dressed in a light pink blazer and skirt "Hello, welcome to sweet amoris high. You must be Delilah jones."I nod my head and she shoots me a weak smile "great. Go down to Nathaniel. He'll give you time table and get you all signed in." "Where would Nathaniel be exactly?" She sighs and stands up straighter. "Down the hall on your left" She than turns around and abruptly leaves. Thanks for your hospitality…not. I sigh and follow the directions she gave me which lead me to a door that says student body president. Looking around the room I see a blonde boy wearing a white shirt and light brown trousers looking through documents. "Excuse me…" he glances up and looks slightly taken aback. He stands up and takes off his glasses, which I presume are for reading. "You wouldn't happen to know where someone called Nathaniel is." He smiles and I catch sight of his beautiful brown, almost golden like eyes. "That's me, how may I help you?" He asks politely and I shoot him a smile. "I'm new here…some lady told me to come here to get my timetable" He chuckles and moves towards the file cabinet "That lady is the principle." Oh. No wonder she was there to welcome me, he comes back with my time table and a file. He flicks through the file and then looks up at me "Here's your timetable" He hands me the time table and puts the file back in the cabinet. "It's Delilah…right?" I nod my head "It is Delilah, but I prefer lilah." He nods and grabs a pen and paper from his pocket "Well lilah I hope you enjoy sweet amoris high" He scribbles on the paper and hands it to me. "It's a late note so you don't get a detention for being late" Then he sits back down at his desk "okay see you around Nathaniel" I leave the room and bump into something hard, I'm almost knocked off my feet but manage to gain my balance just in time. "Hey! Don't you watch where you're going?" I look up and come face to face with a boy who's hair was blood red. His stormy grey eyes where memorizing and I struggled to look away from them .his red t-shirt matched perfectly with his hair and he dressed it down with a black leather jacket, black jeans and combat boots. "Yes I do actually. But it seems you don't" I waited for a reply and he looked at me with a mischievous smirk on his face. "Excuse me?" I grin and give him a scowl tryna keep a straight face. "Yes excuse you. Next time try and watch where you're going, okay?" I pat his chest and walk away… like a boss. ; )
