Part one
Annabelle took a deep breath as she looked up and the big and somewhat intimidating school. This is going to be hell, She thought to herself as she began up the front stairs. She opened the door and immediately was terrified, not because she was new, but because she had no one at this school. Annabelle sighed to herself and walked in the office. "Excuse me." She said quietly to the nice looking secretary at the front desk. "Hello sweetie. Can I help you?" Annabelle nodded as a toothy smile spread across her face. "I'm new here, Annabelle Harrison.." The lady smiled happily and handed the new girl her schedule. Annabelle said her thank you's and wished the lady a good day.
As she went to turn to leave out the door, she ran right into a boy walking in the office. "Ouch.." She said loudly and quickly recovered her cool looking exterior. "Are you okay?" Annabelle smiled at the boy. Maybe a possible friend, she thought to herself. The boy was cute, no, more like adorable. "I'm fine. Just a little bruised." She smiled once more and began to walk away from the boy. "Wait!" He called after her. "Are you new here?" Annabelle nodded her head and the boy extended his hand. "I'm Adam" She felt herself blush. He ran back just to welcome her to the school. She took his hand and flashed a toothy smile. "I'm Annabelle, it's nice to meet you, Adam.." She flashed one last smile at him and began the walk to her first class.
Annabelle sat through her first class and watched everything going on around her. She knew no one, and that was killing her. She looked over to see a blonde girl smiling over at her. "Hey, I'm Annabelle." She said quietly to the blonde. " It's nice to meet you, I'm Jenna." Annabelle smiled at her and then looked back at the teacher. She needed to pay attention. Annabelle didn't want anything to happen here like it had at her old school. What happened there she didn't want to tell anyone, but will she have to?
The bell rang and that terrified feeling crept back over her, well, until she saw the one familiar face, Adam. Annabelle was apprehensive about walking over to where he was because he was standing with two other people. Annabelle sucked it up and risked it, she was going over to him. She smiled at Adam and then looked at her other two people. "I'm Annabelle." She said to both people. The girl smiled a friendly smile, "I'm Clare, and this interesting looking fellow is Eli, and I think you already know Adam." She nodded, "Its nice to meet you both…" The rest of the day was pretty uneventful, but there was one think Annabelle knew. She wanted to get to know Adam better. She could fell like there was something he was hiding, and she didn't know whether it was go or bad, but she wanted to know. She laid in bed that night and thought about the few people she had already met at Degrassi. Maybe this will be a good year, she thought as she drifted off to sleep.
