Okay guys, this is my first fanfic, so be niceC;
Demi's POV:
I pulled into an empty space in the school parking lot, gripping the steering wheel in an attempt to calm my shaky hands. My first day at Lake Monroe High... My damn nerves always got the better of me. I closed my eyes as i took in a deep breath, forcing myself to calm down.
I had always been a shy girl, well, at least until you got to know me. My self-esteem has pretty much been non-existent since suffering from bullying the entire way through middle school, and my previous high school back in Dallas, which was one of the reasons for moving here, to Louisiana.
After a moment of pointlessly trying to calm my nerves, i opened my eyes and grabbed my bag, climbing out of the car. I still didn't know what lesson i had first, so i lent against my car, rummaging through my bag to find my timetable. When my frantic hands couldn't find it, i began to panic, my heart pounding in my chest. I opened my car door quickly, emptying the entire content of my bag onto the seat, and letting out a huge sigh of relief when my eyes came across the folded up piece of paper that had my classes printed on it.
I allowed myself a quick look around out of the window, at my new 'class mates'. When my cheeks went bright crimson and my breath started coming coming in short, shallow gasps, i remembered why i had been avoiding looking around until now. Damn, i really did need to sort my nerves out, they got in the way of everything.
I slung my re-packed bag over my shoulder as i locked the car door again, trying not to draw any attention to myself. I always tried to keep to myself and out of everyone's way. If nobody payed any attention to me, no body could hurt me, right?
My first lesson was Spanish, room S13, where the heck was that?! Even after my meeting with the principal yesterday, i still didn't know my way around anywhere! I sighed, looking around confusedly, not sure where i was supposed to go. This school was huge, and there were so many blocks!
'Today is going to be fun!' I thought to myself sarcastically, grimacing as i stared at the 4 different blocks, wondering which one would lead me to my Spanish class...
Selena's POV:
I looked around the parking lot, craning my neck to get a better view of the students flooding through the gate, wondering if David was one of them.
David had been my best friend since elementary school, we grew up together. I was starting to get worried as he was never usually this late. As my eyes scanned the parking lot, i caught sight of an unfamiliar face, that made me do a double take. She was beautiful, her hair fell down her back in gorgeous ringlets that ended just past the bottom of her shoulder blades and her eyes, framed by dark long eyelashes, were a stunning chocolate brown. I looked closer at her, and i suddenly felt my stomach twist into knots as i noticed that her eyes were large, holding a look or fear and her cheeks were an alluring shade of pink. It struck me that she must have been the new girl. I didn't recognize her face and the look of terror in her eyes made my chest ache as i realized how nervous she was. Maybe i should go over and check she alright, she looked so confused...
"Selena!"
I was instantly pulled out of my reverie by David punching my arm firmly, and shouting my name at me, trying to gain my attention. I reluctantly turned to him with an eyebrow raised, as if to say 'Where have you been?' He simply rolled his eyes at me, sighing.
"God, Selena, did you not listen to a word i just said?"
"Sorry I was...thinking." I finished lamely, looking back over towards the new girl...
"The bus was was late, the new driver got lost on his way apparently." He explained, his annoyance evident in his voice. David hated arriving any later than 8:30, even though lessons didn't start until 9. Usually i would of teased him about it, just to wind him up even more, but i just couldn't pull my attention away from that girl.
"Oh" was all i managed to respond. "I'll be right back..." i told him as i hopped of the picnic table i was perched on, and started to make my way over to the new girl, wondering why i was so drawn in by her. I could feel Davids curios eyes boring into my back, obviously wondering where i was going, and why, but i simply didn't care.
As i reached the new girl, i felt my breathe get caught in my lungs. She was even more beautiful up close. "Hi... I-I'm Selena" was all i managed to squeak out. Why did i find this girl so... attractive? And why she making me so nervous? 'Get a grip Selena!' I thought to myself, 'before you make an even bigger fool of yourself!'
"Hello... I'm Demi." she replied shyly, her cheeks suddenly turning from pale pink to a deep crimson.
"Demi," i smiled her, hoping to make her feel more at ease. "You must be the new girl."
Demi nodded timidly, looking down at her hands and she intertwined her fingers together together nervously, before quickly pulling out a folded piece of paper from her pocket and glancing at it quickly. She looked up at me with a glint of embarrassment in her eyes. It was adorable.
"Do you know where S13 is?" she gave a small apologetic smile, seemingly embarrassed that she didn't know where her first class was, but i just thought it was cute.
"Yes." I nodded, giggling at how adorably shy she was. Relieved that i didn't think she was stupid for not knowing her way around, Demi instantly gave me a genuinely thankful, wide smile. "Do you want me to show you where it is? I have Spanish first period too. My class is just next to yours."
"Would you? Thank you!" She smiled, letting out a small sigh of relief, shoving her timetable back into her bag. She was so sweet.
I lead her into the languages block, hearing David running behind us to catch up.
"Selena! Hey?!" He exclaimed as he got close enough for me to hear him.
"David! Umm… This is Demi, Demi's, this is David" I gestured to them both with my hands, as they nodded and exchanged smiles.
"You two are very cute together..." Demi observed quietly, and I thought I heard a hint of disappointment in her voice.. I brushed it off quickly, there's no way, I must of just been imagining it.
"Oh no, we're not together." I told her, allowing a small laugh to escape my lips. David and I were just friends, and that was it, he we like a brother to me. I looked towards David in time to see him shaking his head quickly in agreement.
"No, Selena's my best friend, like my little sister." He grinned, voicing what I was thinking. I laughed at him, nodding.
"Oh, I'm sorry, I just assumed." Demi apologised quickly, her cheeks turning a beautiful crimson colour again, making my breath catch in my lungs. It seemed like the blushes seemed to take up permanent residence on her cheeks. And why was this girl always so polite? None the less, it was adorable.
I gave her a reassuring smile as we stopped outside her class room. "Don't worry about it. This is your class." I told her, pointing to the class in front of us. "Do you know where your other classes are? I asked her, raising an eyebrow. I didn't want her to get lost, she seemed so nervous already, without the fear of getting lost thrown in as well.
"No…" she admitted sheepishly, shaking her head as she looked down at her feet.
"I'll meet you here after Spanish is over, what do you have next?" She retrieved her timetable, quickly, out of her bag once again, handing it to me when I held out my hand, offering to take a look for her. "History with Mr. Ellis…" I mumbled to myself as I read over her lessons. "Great, me too." I handed it back to her, grinning, as I saw a smile spread across her face. "I'll see you later." I waved quickly as I saw the group of girls flood into my class, calling out to Demi over my shoulder, reminding her to meet me outside her class. She waved back and nodded, entering her class quickly, outing her head down.
I slouched down in my seat, smiling to myself. Why did I find everything about this girl so… fascinating? I felt an usual sensation in my stomach, was she really giving me butterflies?! I'd never felt this way before, and especially not about a girl. I must just admire her beauty; surely I couldn't possibly be attracted to her in any way… No. I was straight.
I brushed the thoughts from my mind quickly as Ms. Vick walked in, trying to focus on what she was talking about and keep my thoughts away from her…
So, this is my first chapter! And your reviews would be much appreciated! I'm new at this, so opinions would be great, thanks:)
