Devin Pov:
I step out of the cab and stare up at the giant building or what I will now call home for the next three years. Never have I ever lived in a place so large before. The building was beautiful. I stepped around to the back as the driver helped me take out my luggage. My heart was beating super quickly from nerves. With a large wheeling suitcase in each hand I start to look back. Expecting something I know wasn't there. I guess I was expecting goodbye or a hug at least, but even that was too much for my parents. I don't actually see my parents very much. They can never stay in one place for too long. My parents are photographers, and travel everywhere. They will be in a place for work for a period of time and then get bored and will move on to the next country or continent. But traveling is no place for a child…well more like their child. I have been sent to boarding schools since kindergarten. I have been to about 4 schools in total…this being my 5th. Now my parents have decided to locate to the UK so I guess so have I. I slowly approach the building wondering what this new place will be like. Nothing is ever really different actually. My thoughts get interrupted suddenly.
"Excuse me?" a woman with grey hair in a bun approaches me.
"Oh um I'm sorry," I reply. The woman gives me a very confused look that makes me very nervous.
"Are you um… are you Devin?" She asks hesitantly. I force a smile on my lips and nod. She looks shocked.
"Well then I guess I shall um show you to your dorm," she finally says and starts to walk quickly ahead of me. I quickly try to keep up but the woman was fast. The inside is just as beautiful maybe more than the outside. She seems a bit flustered for some reason which does no help calming my nerves. Once we get into a large elevator she presses the button 3 and starts to go over the rules. Rules, I find them comical because I have heard them four times before. Nothing is ever different. I know probably better than anyone how to behave in a boarding school.
"Well we will have to figure out a uniform for you since we weren't really expecting you," she says. This is when I finally listen.
"What do you mean? My parents sent in my application two months ago," I inform unsure of what she is saying. She chuckles nervously.
"Well we wouldn't expect you to wear a boys uniform," she states. I give her a confused look.
"You do realize this is an all boys boarding school." She informs. My eyes bulge out of my head.
"Excuse me?" I shriek.
"Oh goodness you didn't. well this is awkward. I will just lead you to your room," she finally states. There are no girls? What the hell! My parents didn't even find me a school that was meant for me. Well shows how much they really care. We walk in silence until we stop at room 334 and leaves me with a key and flustered as ever. I take a few deep breaths to process all that is happening. I guess there is nothing else to do.
I enter my room. There was only one bunk empty so I assumed it was mine. I put my luggage down on the bed and look around. How am I the only girl? I look into a closet the head master I heard mention and there was a whole closet full of cloth like blankets with green, blue plaid patterns. Good thing I was good at sewing from consumer ec at my last school. I open my suitcase and pull out scissors, a ruler, thread and my sewing machine. I took out a couple of blankets and some black sheets for the inside of the skirts. I found the remote to the tv and flipped it to the big bang theory and got to work. In the next 3 hours I had made about 6 skirts. For some reason I had some elastic from my sweatpant cuffs and added them to the skirt so they fit perfectly. I look at the clock it read 2:30 so I cleaned up everything and shut the tv off. By the time I did that it was 2:50. My roommates wouldn't be out until 3:10. I can take a shower and be dressed in time to greet them. I walk into the other room with my toletries and take my long dark brown hair out of the ponytail and hop into the warm shower.
Niall Pov:
I have almost dreaded going back to the dorm today. Because I know that when we all get there, there will be another dude there. We don't need another roommate nor did we want one. This new guy wont get us, we are already so close. As the bell rings I slump out of Algebra with 2 of my other roommates Harry and Louis. Liam and Zayn don't have this class with us. Right now they are leaving history. I look over to my two friends as we all share the same thought. He is probably going to be really uptight and wont let us goof around… which is the only thing we do! We are all loud and crazy towards one another. This new guy could ruin everything. Stupid 3 bunkbeds. The campus is beautiful but right now I am hating tht we get such large rooms.
As we are walking to our dorm I am not talking as much as I usually do. Louis' hand clasps my shoulder.
"Nervous mate?" he asks with a sincere smile. I half smile and nod my head. We all halt in front of our door. I take a loud breath.
"Look if he is dreadful we ignore him, simple as that," Louis says to Harry and i. Harry pulls out his key to unlock the door and all peer in. But no one is here. Where could this person be? Our headmaster said he'd be arriving at about 11:00. It is now 3:15.
"Maybe hes invisible!" Harry cries out in excitement. I crack up. Louis puts his arm around Harry's shoulder.
"It's a good thing you are pretty," Louis jokes. Harry smiles largely at the compliment not realizing the insult. I look at the clock. 3:17. I always need to go to the bathroom at 3:17. I rush straight to the connected doors to do my business. But it isn't until after that I realize something… The shower is running. I gulp, what if this is some creeper out to kill us! I grab the first thing I can find which is a towel. I tip toe over to the curtain. My heart is racing and I am scared as hell. I breath quickly and finally grab a side of the shower curtain aside.
