Hello to any readers out there who are planning on reading my story. Im really new to fanfiction and I've read a few that were just amazing! This is my first ever story here and I have to say I was scared to start a story cause of what people might think. But now I've gathered enough courage to do it! I will accept any type of criticism, good or bad, to help improve my writing in any way. But enough about me. Let's get on to the story.

The thing I hate most about high school are the mornings. I say this cause I am most defiantly NOT an morning person. I really should introduce myself. My name Is Dawn Berlitz. I'm 18 and I live in Hearthome City with my mom. I've lived here since I was 8 after my dad died in an avalanche at Snowpoint.

Today is the first day of my senior year at Hearthome High School and I know for a fact that today is going to suck. It's already 7:30 and I'm still laying in my bed staring at my ceiling hoping that I have my dates wrong and school doesn't start today. I know I should already be dressed but I barely got any sleep last night and I'm exhausted.

Suddenly my phone went off indicting that I received a text. I knew who it was even before I picked it up to read the text.

To: Dawn
From: May

Are you ready to go yet?! The girls and I are coming over right now so you'd better be dressed and ready once we get there!

To: May
From: Dawn

I'm up, don't panic! I still haven't even gotten ready yet but I will now. See you guys in half and hour :)

I laughed quietly to myself as I replied to her text. So typical of May to be so excited for a day of school but I decided to follow her instructions and get ready. I slowly got up off my bed and stretched out my body. I lazily walked off to my bathroom and took a quick cold shower to wake up my senses.

I walked out about 10 minutes later in my warm pink robe and headed towards my closet. Now this is the hard part, choosing an outfit for the first day. After a good 10 minutes of careful deliberation I decided to go casual. I had on a pink v-neck tee with a cute buneary design on it and some white jean shorts. I also had on a pair of pink ballet flats with little bows on the front. I left my hair straightened and down cause I think it suits my casual look better. As for my makeup I only put in a little bit of mascara, I wanna be all natural today.

Just as I put the finishing touches on my lashes I heard a knocking at my front door. I quickly rushed down the stairs to answer the door but I tripped on the last few steps and crashed to the floor. I could hear my friends laughing at my clumsiness from outside.

When I opened the door my friends burst out in laughter again.
"Why are you guys laughing so hard?" I asked them with a frown on my face.
"We're laughing at your lack of balance!" said Misty between her fits of laughter.
"Oh come on, I have great balance. Why else would I be the cheerleading captain?" I replied in a smug tone.
"You may be the captain if the cheerleaders but your clumsiness is just horrifying." Leaf giggled.
"Ok now you guys are just being mean!" I pouted
"You know we love you Dawn. Your like our little sister. Now let's get in my car and get to school before we're late." May replied.

I quickly grabbed my pink purse from a hanger just inside the door and rushed out of my home, eager to start the day with my friends.
"Hey Dawn, I didn't see your mom this morning. Where is she?" Leaf asked politely.
"She's busy with work. As usual." I replied in a harsh tone.
"Aww come on Dawn, you can't start the day in a bad mood. Cheer up, we have Pokemon History with that cute new teacher first period!" May said excitedly.
"May do I have to remind you that you have a boyfriend?" Leaf replied in an accusing tone.
"Oh please Leaf! Drew hardly acts like a boyfriend. And it's not like Gary acts any better!" May said defiantly.
"He treats me well. Though his flirting can be a bit suggestive..." Leaf trailed off.

I keep listening to my friends argue about their boyfriends all the way to the school. I am a bit jealous of them cause I'm the only one in our group that doesn't have a boyfriend. But I'm waiting for the right guy and I'm positive I'm gonna meet him soon. I can just feel it.

And that concludes the end of my first chapter. I know it's was horribly written so feel free to review about things that I've done wrong so I can improve on it. If you have ideas on how the story should go feel free to tell me so I can make the story as enjoyable as I can for you readers. Thank you for reading my story. I know that this chapter was really short but I promise that the next one will me longer. The next chapter will be out sometime this week so stay tuned for that.
