(Dan's POV)
I strolled slowly through the gates at St Hearts, my school bag slung over my shoulder.
It was only 8:00, and I was so tired. I'll admit, I probably shouldn't have stayed up until midnight last night doing homework which I should have done weeks ago.
It had been a long summer, but now the cold was starting to creep in.
Suddenly, it started to spit with rain, and I dashed inside.
Frank was already in school, mopping the floor near my locker.
I walked down the corridor and stood next to him.
He glanced at me, and saw me rubbing my eyes tiredly.
"Ready for active duty then?" He smirked.
"Oh haha" I said back sarcastically. "Yeah, I'm fine, I'll be awake properly by the end of first lesson".
Frank finished cleaning, and walked back to the caretakers cupboard, dragging his mop and bucket behind him.
I was so bored, there seemed to be no one else in school, so I decided to go and sit in my classroom until the others turned up.
I walked through the door, and saw a girl sitting at the front of the class reading.
I quietly shut the door behind me, not wanting to disturb her.
'She must be new' I thought to myself. I had never seen her around school before.
I slid my iPod from my pocket and started to listen to music.
As the minutes passed, I studied the girl sitting two rows in front of me.
She was quite tall, with long brown hair tied up in a ponytail and brown eyes.
She wore big glasses, and I caught a glimpse of a blue, beaded bracelet when she turned the page of her book.
As people gradually started to filter into the classroom, she put her book away.
As she dropped it into her satchel, I saw it was Blade Quest.
'Honestly'. I thought. I still didn't quite see the point of that story.
All of a sudden a tap on my shoulder made me jump. I turned and saw it was Aneisha and Keri.
"Hey" Keri said, and Aneisha smiled at me. "Hi" I said back.
"How was your holiday?" I asked, a question which I would regret asking.
Twenty minutes later, Keri still hadn't stopped talking about her latest shopping trip with Trina.
"Alright!" Aneisha interrupted. "Your holiday was great".
Then Tom arrived, and flung his bag on the floor. He then proceeded to sit down on his chair, and rest his head on the desk.
"You alright?" I asked him. Tom groaned back, and Aneisha bent down beside him. "Tom, are you okay?" She asked. "Yeah I'm okay" Tom said, sitting up.
"I just didn't get much sleep last night" he said. "Anyway, are you guys looking forward to our next mission?"
Keri said excitedly. She said it a little bit too loudly.
"Shush!" Tom said, putting his finger to his lips.
"We're meant to be spies, remember?" He said.
I glanced around, making sure nobody heard us.
I met the gaze of the next girl sitting at the front, who had turned round in her chair and was watching us closely.
"Guys" I said quietly. "The girl at the fronts watching us".
They all turned and stared at the girl. She looked away again, and faced the front. "Do you think she heard?" Aneisha asked.
"I don't know" I said, "but we'd better be more careful". The bell rang, and Mrs King strode into the classroom.
Everyone straightened up, no one wanted to get on the wrong side of Mrs King on the first day.
Mrs King took the register first. She read out everyone's names, before coming to the girl at the end of the register.
"Emma Wilkinson" She read out. "Yes miss" the new girl replied.
Throughout the lesson, I realised that Emma was very good at maths, and she continued to show an actual interest in history, which she was good at too.
Tom made an effort in history, which impressed Mr Flatley, who was taking that lesson.
He'd obviously spent a while revising for the test.
Emma however, wouldn't have known about the test as she wasn't here, yet she flew through it, getting every question right.
"Right" Mr Flatley said at the end of the lesson. "Since Emma is new here, I think it would be nice if someone showed her around the school.
Tom since you've done well in today's test, why don't you do it?".
"Okay" Tom replied. He and Emma stood up from their desks, and walked towards the door.
"Find out if she knows anything" I hissed as Tom passed my desk.
Tom had to find out if Emma knew anything.
If she did, we would have to cover it up as soon as possible.
If we didn't, it could mean the end of our spy careers.
Hi guys! I decided to write a new story because I ran out of ideas for the old one. Please review if you like it and you can suggest ideas for this story or for new ones if you want to. Until the next time
