Millions of thoughts ran through Aria's head as she stood 4 feet away from the front entrance of her new school, her eyes focused on the sign bigger than her house which read 'Rocky Hill High'. Aria took a deep breath and began towards the school. Every breath she took felt like a stab to the heart, nerves overwhelmed her. She sped up to get to class; she knew if she didn't sit down soon she would pass out. Right that moment her main goal was to survive through the day without any embarrassing moment which she would regret for the rest of her life.
As she arrived to her first class she placed herself in the only empty seat available which was positioned next to a guy; a guy which she knew would be bad news, with his messy hair and bad boy attitude. Aria rolled her eyes, took in a big sigh and took her seat. She placed her pale, porcelain face into the palms of her hands with her eyes focused on her professor stood at the front trying to collect the attention of the students at the back of the class. Aria tried her very best to avoid eye contact with the strange adolescent male sat beside her however she found it very difficult as she could feel the gaze of his eye sight on the side of her face.
"Hey new girl, the names Caleb" the 'bad boy' whispered with his deep mysterious voice.
Aria turned her head to face Caleb still avoiding eye contact, she looked him up and down but still could not understand how such a guy would talk to her.
"Aria" She replied showing no interest but hinting a little confusion in her voice as to why he was speaking to her. That was the last word they spoke to each other for the rest of the lesson.
As soon as the bell rang Aria was out of there, she couldn't take it anymore. She hated new places, especially new schools. She quickly paced to the only place she felt safe, the place she had found when she first arrived in this new town a few months back; the abandoned lake house behind her house was a place Aria loved to go especially for some peace from the world. There was a little pond just by the lake house, it was Aria's favourite place to contemplate her surroundings and take everything the world offered her into perspective. She slowly reaches her hand in the clear water, making a ripple effect throughout. She doesn't know how stunning she truly is, nor does she know that he, the bad boy is examining her exquisiteness from a nearby tree. She stands. Oh, how beautifully she stands. To be detained by the restrictions of the world it must be devastating to be so lonely in the world.
Only this time last year Aria had lost her parents in a car accident which Aria so stubbornly blamed on herself. Every day she found new reason to hate herself; as she stood so elegantly buy the pond a tear rolled down her cheek and dropped into the pond. As Aria stared into her reflection the picture morphed into her mother who she once loved, memories of her passed flood back and knocked Aria to her knees. Caleb rushed from the nearby tress in which he was hiding behind and came to Aria's aid.
