I roll over when I hear my alarm buzzing next to me and see the bright sun shining into my window; I slam my hand onto the alarm and groan loudly. It's 6 in the morning, and it's a Saturday… Today is the day I head to my high school, so I can get settled. I know what you're thinking its just high school, you shouldn't need to get settled, well I go to Lawrence Academy it's like a private high school, and I love it! I get jerked out of my thoughts when I hear my mother yelling up the stairs.
"Santana! Get up we have to get there early!" she yells and I roll over and groan "Okay I'll be down in a few minutes… I'm gonna take a quick shower!" I push myself off the bed and walk to the bathroom door.
"That's fine! " My mother yells "Just don't take too long!" she yells and heads away from the bottom of the stairs.
I walk into the bathroom and turn on the shower, I hop into the shower and let the water run over me for a few minutes, I quickly was my hair and jump out and get dressed, I throw on a pair of ripped blue jeans, A black tank top and a white hoodie. I don't really have to get anything together; we packed all of my things the night before.
I head down the stairs and groan loudly, it's too early! I sigh and my mother and father are standing in the kitchen.
"Let's go I want to get on the road early!" my father yawns. We head out the door and I jump in the back seat of the car. This is going to be a long ass drive… I yawn loudly which gets a chuckle from my mother and she begins shaking her head. I'm actually ready to head to the school I get to see all my friends and I'm ready to catch up with them! My friends are Quinn, Tina, Mercedes, Sugar, Rachel (even though she gets on my nerves sometimes). And then there are the boys they live down the street at the other Lawrence Academy, the all boy's one… I sigh and think about Puck, he's my… well we've been dating on and off for a while now but not right now… I sigh to myself and yawn. We have a lot of guy friends that go to the all-boys school, there's; Puck, Finn, Artie, Mike, and Kurt. Their all pretty good guys and I love all of my friends and I can't wait to see them…
I lean back and look out the window my mother turns around and looks back towards me with a smile.
"Do you want to get some breakfast?" I smile and nod.
We pull up to an IHop and head in and sit down, I am starving! We head in and they serve us right away, I order some pancakes and bacon, my mother talks about the Academy and how excited I am to there I smile and nod, we eat pretty much in silence and then we head out to the car, I sit down in the back seat and pull out my iPod I stick the ear buds in my ear and flip to a song. I lean back and close my eyes this is going to be a long drive mine as well take a nap.
I lean up and rub my eyes, I glance around and we are in the middle of nowhere. I turn and look out the window this is the longest drive ever, I pull my hood up and lay back against the seat, I close my eyes again and it doesn't take long for me to drift asleep again. What feels like a few minutes later I feel someone shaking me… I lean up and look at my mother.
"San, wake up were here…" she whispers, and continues to shake me until I pull my hood down and open my eyes.
I run my hands through my hair and look up, Lawrence Academy is a pretty big school, I like that the dorms are close to everything, the dining hall and the area of the school where all of the classes are located…I smile and look out the window and see some people heading into the dorms. The car comes to a stop and I jump out of the backseat. I stretch out and yawn, this car ride always kills me…
I turn around and see my mother smiling at me, "You really love this place don't you…" she smiles and I nod quickly. We head into the building and I talk to the R.A. in the building, they tell me where my dorm is and I head up the stairs. I down the hallway and see a few other empty dorms, I hope that some of my friends will be in those, I smile when I find my dorm towards the end of the hall.
I step into the room and see that it's practically empty except for a desk, a bed, the dresser and a nightstand. I put down the suitcase that I carried from the car and put it on the bed; I head back down the steps and to my car. I grab a tote full of clothes and carry it back up to my dorm room; I glance into the room next to mine and see a blonde girl with her family bringing up suitcases and other items. I put my tote down and walk back out into the hallway, the girl's family walks out of the room and the girl is just standing next to her desk. I have never seen this girl here before… maybe she is new?
I shrug to myself and walk back into my room and open up one of the totes in my room, my parents were getting the last two. I snapped the top off and glanced down at all of the things in the box, just a ton of clothes I sigh I have two more totes full of crap! This is gonna take forever… I hear someone behind me so I flip around and see my parents dropping off the last of the totes. My dad and mother smile they help me open all my totes and put my clothes away, and then it's time for them to go. I walk down to where my car is and wrap my arms around my mother.
"I'm going to miss you mija!" she says with a smile on her face and her hands on my shoulders. I smile and give her an even bigger hug.
My father comes over to me and wraps me in a big bear hug, "I'm goin to miss you so much San…" he holds onto me for a second and he steps back and looks at me "and stay out of trouble… okay!" he smiles and I give him a quick nod. I step back from them and they get in the car, they start down the road and I give them a small wave as they drive off.
I sigh and head up to my dorm room I walk in my room and sit down on the bed. I shouldn't just be sitting down I should get up and start working, my classes don't start for another 3 days but the school lets us come here early to get situated. I open us all of the totes and drag the ones with clothes over to the dresser. I take out all of the clothes and put them away when I hear a small knock on my door, Quinn is standing there with a smile on her face, I get up and give her a huge hug.
"Hey Asstana!" Quinn smiles and hugs me really tight; she leans back and looks around my room.
"Damn, you have a lot of work to do!" she smiles and steps to the side.
I shake my head and smile at her "Yeah I have a ton of shit to put away…" I sigh and lean against the dresser.
"Well I have to put all my shit away too, so I'll talk to you later… Okay! Bye!" Quinn gives me a small wave and heads down the hallway. I smile and begin putting away the rest of my clothes, today has been a long ass day and I am exhausted but this needs to get done. I finally get all of my clothes put away and then it comes to the walls. Time to decorate! I take out my dry erase board and stick it to the left of my window above where my desk is sitting, I take out some pictures and posters and by the time I am done you can barely see the wallpaper. It is already 9 o'clock at night and I am hungry! I step out of my dorm room and down the hall. I head over to the booth next to the door and sign out; We have to sign out when we leave, so I sigh out and head out the door.
I walk down to the local subway and order some food I get my sandwich to go and head back to the school, the last thing I want to be around right now are other people, I sigh to myself and push open the door to the dorms, I sign back in and head up the stairs to my dorm room. I sit down on my bed and pull out my sandwich I eat quickly I didn't know I was so hungry! I walk over to the trash can and toss my garbage and head out of my dorm. The room next to mine with the mysterious blonde is closed now and I can hear someone singing from inside.
I stop at the door and listen; whoever they are they are pretty good, I sigh and walk past the door, I walk down the hall and look around for everyone's dorm, I don't see anyone's dorm even Quinn's I wonder where she went… I'm just about to turn the corner when I smack into someone hard, I knock whatever they were holding onto the floor, and I gasp loudly.
The mystery blonde is looking at me with a shocked expression.
"I'm sooo sorry!" she says quickly and bends down to grab what she dropped, I smile and bend down to help her.
"No, I'm sorry; I wasn't watching where I was going…" I sigh and help her pick up what she was holding.
She stands up and I hand her all of her things, I smile. "So, I've never seen you here before… you new?" I sigh and she nods quickly.
She moves all of her things into her left hand and sticks out her right hand, "Yeah, I'm new just moved her and my parents heard this was a good school, Hi I'm Brittany!" I shake her hand and give her a small smirk.
"I'm Santana, and I think your dorm is actually right next to mine…" I motion towards my dorm and she smiles really big.
"Yeah, I guess so!" she smiles and tries to move everything back to her right hand.
"Well I have to go, but it was nice meeting you!" she says and she walks down the hallway.
I smile and give her a small wave and head into my dorm. I shut the door and lean back and sit down on my bed. I really need a shower… I go over to my door and take my robe; I grab a towel, my shampoo and conditioner, and head down to the washroom.
I walk down the hall and turn and head into the shower, I let the hot water run over me and I close my eyes, this has been a long day, I just want to relax… I wash my hair quickly and get out of the shower I throw on my robe and head down the hall… I get in my room and throw on a pair of sweats and a gray tank top. I sit on my bed and hear Brittany singing again, I smile to myself and knock on her wall, her singing stops abruptly and then I hear a knock at my door; I get up and open the door. Brittany is standing there with a small smile and she's biting her lip.
"Sorry if I bothered you…" she whispered and I just chuckled.
"No, no, no, it's not that…" I smile and shake my head…" I just wanted to tell you, you're really good…" I smile and she stops biting her lip and grins.
"Well thanks!" she says with a huge grin… "Do you sing?" she asks me cocking her head.
"Sometimes but not here lately…" I sigh and she nods quickly.
"Well I need to head to bed, but I'll see ya later?" she smiles and I nod with a grin, she steps away and I shut the door, I think this is going to be a good year!
