It was my first day of 8th grade and to sat the least I was very nervous. I mean I've done this before like what? 7 times! I don't know why this time was any different. I closed my eyes and then opened them. I was now standing in front of my school La Push school. Oh yeah, did I mention that little fact that this school goes from 8th-12th! Yep! that is so weird that they would do that.
I then noticed that they had just opened the front gates. 'Here we go' I thought. Right when I entered the school there wasn't a lot of people. That's probably because not a lot of people come this early. It is also the first day of school so you would think people would come early right? Well thats probably only for the First year kids.
I decided to wait close to the classrooms where I didn't have to get in anyones way. You see I'm really shy and don't like to have any notice me. So I stood there and looked around to get use to my new school. Suddenly, someone bumped into me, in the process making me drop all of my stuff. I quickly started to pick my things up.
While I was doing that I heard the person who pushed me down say 'Loser'. I looked down at my stuff and held back the tears. I then heard their foot steps walk away and a new pair walk towards me. Then a new pair of hands started helping me pick up my stuff. Once we both had picked up everything I looked up towards him.
Standing in front of me was Seth Clearwater. How do I know his name you ask? Well who doesn't know the 'La Push Gang'. Well of course I don't think their in a gang I mean you can't just judge someone by the way they look. I mean really it could just be genetic! Some people here are just so rude & mean.
"Thanks Seth" I muttered. I guess he heard because he replied. "Your welcome, but the problem here is the fact that you know my name and I don't know yours" He said giving me a mesmerizing smile. "Oh sorry I'm Erin" I replied sticking a hand out. He toke it and when our hands came into contact it was hot! I mean I think he felt like what? 105 degrees! Is that even possible?
I slowly toke my hand back not wanting to be rude. "So Erin why aren't you waiting with anyone" Seth asked. "Well I guess thats because I don't have any friends, I kind of a loner" I said looking down. "Well then your not anyone more because I'm your NEW Best Friend or BFF like you girls say" He replied grabbing my hand.
He then dragged me over to his other friend Collin & Brady. When we where finally in front of them I do believe a HUGE blush was covering my face. I kind of guessing because Collin & Brady both have smirks on their faces. I looked away and waited for someone to break the silence. I guess Seth noticed and started laughing! Which made all of us follow his lead.
I guess now that I was with Seth he made kind of open up. I then looked up to Seth, he smiled down at me. "Guys this is Erin she's new here" yours" Seth said pushing me in front of him. I gave a small wave and bit my bottom lip. "Hey" They both said grinning. I kind of felt a little better when they didn't say anything mean. I mean when ever I try to make friends they end up making fun of me or completely ignoring me.
Lets just say that I prefer when people just ignore me and walk away. Suddenly, Collin put his arm over my shoulder. I froze for a minute, but then calmed down. "You know what Erin, I like you because your nice, quiet, kind, & your very pretty" Collin said. I then started to blush, that was the first time a boy had ever said I was pretty.
