Hey I'm volleyrocker.. And this is my first story so by nice.

"MAX!" my sister Ella yelled, "Get up or we will be late!"

"Shut up Ella!' I yelled back as I got up out of bed. I quickly pulled on some skinny jeans and a tee-shirt.

"Well here comes little miss grump pants." My mom said as I walked down the stairs.

"Shut up" I grumbled as I went to grab a banana. Me, Ella, and my mom had just moved from Phoenix, Arizona, and were starting a new school. Need less to say I was not happy.

"Come on Ella, I will drive you to school." The middle school and high school were on the same property. ( A/N my middle school and high school are like that too.) As we arrived at the school I saw that most kids had really expensive cars, I didn't care though, I love my old beat up one. We found a parking spot and Ella and I went our separate ways.

"Hi!" some one said behind me. I slowly turned around. Behind me was a girl with red hair wearing a green dress. I guessed she was a cheerleader. "What's your name?" she asked cheerfully.

"Max," I said wishing she would leave me alone.

"I'm Lissa, are you new?" she asked.

"Yeah I moved here from Colorado." I said. While I was saying that a guy with longish brown-black hair and wearing all black, came up and put his arm around Lissa.

"Hi, I'm Nick but everyone calls me fang." He said, I noticed he had black eyes too. Man he was hot. Wait no forget I said that.

"I'm Max," I said.

"What class do you have first?" Lissa asked. I pulled out my schedule and handed it to her.

"Okay you have algebra, government, and music with me, and you have history with fang."

Cool, I thought at least I will know someone in my classes, but I was on my own for Spanish, language arts, and art.

"Come on I will walk you to algebra." Lissa said cheerfully. Man I wish she wasn't so cheerful. She chattered on and on as we walked in to class. Lissa took me to meet the teacher.

"Max meet Mr. Thomas."

"Hello Max, where did you move from?" He asked.

"Colorado." I said.

"That's great, go ahead and pick a seat they are not assigned." He said. I decided I was going to like algebra this year. When class was over Lissa walked to government with me. That period went by so slow, and to top it off you couldn't understand a word the teacher was saying because he talked so fast. I was on my own after that class. So I wandered around until I found history. I had forgotten fang had it with me.

"Hey Max come sit over here," he said, "This is Iggy." He said as I walked over.

"Just to warn you the teachers name is Mr. McKenzie, and he is evil." Iggy said.

"Thanks for warning me." I replied. After the teacher chewed my head off for no reason, the period went pretty fast. At lunch I sat with Lissa, Fang, Iggy, and all of their other friends. When the day was finally over I gave Lissa my cell number and went to get Ella. When we got home I went up into my room to do homework. Maybe this school wasn't so bad.
