Sinead stared out the window from her assigned seat in the new class room. Everything was unfamiliar due to being homeschooled most of her life, but Starlings don't ever get scared. She was ready for the school year.
The teacher walked into homeroom class as the bell rang and stared at the students until they quieted down.
"Welcome back class," he said in a monotone voice and wrote his name on the black board. "I will begin with calling role."
Clearing his throat, he brought the class roster to his face and began to read the names…
"…"
"…"
"…"
The names passed over Sinead's head and whizzed in one ear and out the next. The worst part of school: Introducing yourself. Sinead twirled her hair nervously and sighed. She had already taken tests to graduate from high school and even taken some college courses already. So why in the world is she in high school still?! Being lectured by some old dude who doesn't know half the stuff she knows!
Her brothers were boy geniuses and were had already graduated college, but there was Sinead, always compared to her brother Einsteins even though she was just as smart. Everyone told her she should stay in high school, for the 'experience' and the 'fun of being young' whatever that meant. It was apparent that everyone thought her brothers were more amazing than she was… but she loved them anyways.
After a long list a names that alphabetically came before 'Starling', the teacher called out her name.
"Sinead Star-" The door slammed open loudly and everyone in the classroom turned their heads to see a tall, athletic-looking guy walk through the door and promptly sit down in an open seat. The one right behind Sinead, obviously. The classroom exploded in whispers as he put his hands behind his head and propped his feet on his desk.
Sinead felt like she was going to cry. First day of school and she was interrupted very embarrassingly. By a guy. An ATHLETIC guy. She just now realized that she hated high school because everyone else's academic standards and intelligence levels dropped way below her own.
"Holt!" The teacher called out the name as if it were a bad word. The anger in the tone made Sinead flinch visibly. "You're late as expected! Are you asking for detention?"
"Sorry Teach!" He rambled enthusiastically. "I had to take my sisters to school because my parents were taking Arnold on an exercise marathon run and I woke up late, then Madison and Reagan decided to have a wrestling match at the bus stop with the neighbor's kid and when I got here I couldn't find my schedule and then I got lost-"
"Okay. I get it. Just shut up and take a seat." The teacher massaged his temples and sighed. He looked back at his roster and waved his hand at Sinead. "Go again."
"… S-Sinead Starling…" Sinead's face was red as she sat back down. 'Holt' stood up from his seat behind her.
"Hamilton Holt! Sir!" Hamilton stood up quickly from his desk, almost knocking it down, and saluted the teacher, who rolled his eyes.
"Sit down, Holt."
"Sir, yes, Sir!"
Sinead sighed and the remaining students quickly and normally introduced themselves.
For the rest of the class period, all Sinead could hear was Hamilton breathing loudly, tapping his pencil on the desk, or snoring. She could barely concentrate, not that she necessarily needed to, but why must such a loud person sit behind her?!
By the end of class, Sinead felt like her head was going to explode from annoyance. As everyone else packed up their stuff for the next class, she gathered up her courage and tried to get his attention.
"Excuse me Hamilton? Hey-"
"Whoa! How do you know my name?" Hamilton smiled widely. Sinead sighed again. Typical.
"You introduced yourself, remember…?" Sinead narrowed her eyes. Was this guy for real?
"Oh, yeah! Your Sydney… Starling… You sit in front of me, I think!" Hamilton looked so pleased with himself.
"Sinead. I'm Sinead Starling, and yes, I do sit in front of you." Sinead mentally face-palmed. Interacting with people who had lower standards was more complicated them she thought.
"Cool! I'm Hamilton Holt!" Hamilton flashed another extremely happy grin and laughed. "You already knew that didn't you?"
"Yes…uh…"
"So what class do you have next?" Hamilton swiped the schedule that she was holding. "Cool, I have the same class. That's awesome! Want me to walk you there?" Sinead scowled.
"No thank you, I'll be fine!" She finally answered.
"Okay, see ya there!" Hamilton jogged off and high fived anyone he passed.
'That didn't go to well,' Sinead thought to herself. She didn't even get to mention how much his existence annoyed her.
This was going to be a really, REALLY long school year…
