As I paced across the cafeteria, a dispersal of students that were gathered disappeared off to have lunch. But someone new caught my eye. I had heard rumors of her. The new girl, incredibly gorgeous, long bronze hair. More short descriptions and statements flooded my mind.
"Daisy!" Hayley beckoned me towards her. As she swarmed her light blonde hair into a messy bun. She had always been one of my best friends who lived down the road. Her blonde hair perfectly matched her emerald shade of eyes. She wore black skinny jeans that brought shape to her toned legs and a plain white top with a black and white scarf.
When I got to the table it was just me and a few other friends.
"Who's the new girl?" Xavier questioned in his low voice, he was sitting on the table in baggy faded blue jeans and a short sleeved top. His messy, sandy coloured hair wet from the rain outside.
"Renesmee Cullen, she moved here from Alaska last week" Hayley said as she examined Renesmee.
She sat alone at a table in the corner. Her bronze hair covering most of her face. The food on the tray had not been touched. There was something different about her but I couldn't quite put my finger on it. Some more of my friends came and sat down at the table. Chloe's pale skin nudged me.
"You ok?" she murmured "you look really tired" as she said this she was looking in the same direction as me. I nodded and leaned my shoulder into her warm light brown hair she had always been able to tell when something was off with me.
I gave Renesmee one last look before I decided that i would hate it if everyone was staring at me. A conversation started, I tried to tune into it and stop thinking about the girl but my eyes drifted over to her and my thoughts continued.
The loud sound of the ringing bell cut me off from my thoughts. I took my tray to the bin and headed to my locker. I had English next with Mr Baker, I couldn't think of anything worse. I got my books and went to class.
I was completely zoned out when she walked into the room but when she sat next to me I looked up in shock. Her muddy brown eyes. I glared into her eyes mesmerized, getting lost in a sudden rush of memories. She reminded me of my father.
"Ahh Miss Cullen take a seat, everybody this is Renesmee Cullen she will be in our class for the next semester." Mr Baker walked up to our table at the back his husky voice muttered something about a book to low for anyone to hear, but Renesmee looked up as if it were just part of a normal conversation.
"Thank you" her voice chimed like bells, her honey smelling scent wafted over to me.
The lesson went on like normal. Twenty minutes late the lesson was interrupted again by Chloe rushing in breath panting, she came to a sudden stop at the door.
"Miss Winton, shall I even ask?"
"No definitely not"
"We'll then ill see you after class"
"Can't wait" Chloe responded, the class giggled, Chloe sat in the only seat left, two desks in front of me.
"Excuse me, do you have a spare pen mine has just run out?" Renesmee asked
"Yeah, sure, of course" I was lost for words.
"Thanks"
An awkward silence between us started to grow.
"What's you-"
"Why do-"
"Sorry" we both giggled
"So where did you move from?" I asked
"Fairbanks in Alaska, I went to a school called West Valley High"
"Oh … cool, so why did you move here? ... I'm sorry I just ... Sorry"
"No don't be stupid it's fine, but I never did get your name."
I took a quick, shallow sigh "Right, sorry I'm Daisy, Daisy Murray" I gave her a quick smile and ducked my head back into the textbook.
I could feel Chloe's eyes burning into my head just as my pocket vibrated. I slyly removed my iPhone from my pocket. Chloe had texted me:
C: I just got a call from Ben we got into regionals!
Chloe, Hayley and I had done competitive swimming since we were nine. Eight and a half years we had been waiting for this moment. I squealed with excitement.
"Miss Murray, everything ok back there?" Mr Baker asked with a glare
"Perfect, couldn't be better!" The class turned to look at me Mr baker huffed and continued teaching. One by one the faces turned away. I had I massive grin on my face.
D: OMG YESS! I'm so happy! YAY
C: I know so am I but we have two more double session on Monday and Wednesday morning
D: I don't mind it's fine with me
C: hahaha that's what hayley said but me on the other hand I hate the idea

C: I'd rather have 7 yr old twins than a 15 ur old brother :) hahah mr bakers coming ahh
I turned off my phone, slid it into my pocket and went back to work.
The bell rang for 6th period a while later as I collected my books.
"Daisy where's the French department? I'm sorry this is a really big school" I looked up to see Renesmee's brown eyes fixed on me, a shade of pink rose to her cheeks.
"Oh sorry, I'm going there right now follow me!"
To get to the languages department we had to leave the main building and go outside into the pouring rain. As we made our way to the B block a shiver went straight through me.
"How are you not freezing right now?" I asked Renesmee she was wearing unrecognizable designer clothes and Pravda boots.
"Don't forget I have just come from Alaska" she said with a grin "New Zealand's nowhere near as cold as home!"
Sixth period went by in a daze. My eyes wouldn't leave the clock watching the seconds hand and as soon as it was about to reach 12 check the minutes hand to see if it had moved. Finally the bell rang I headed off to my locker and into my car. I drove out of the car park and turned onto the road that took me home.
