A/N: Well I've been thinking about this for a while, so I decided to finally share it. I normally don't post things unless I have a good couple of chapters done, but I really wanted to hear other people's opinions.
This is the first original long story that I'm writing, so it'll be interesting. It's very AU, but hopefully people will like it. I'm just posting the prologue because the first chapter is being written very slowly but surely. It doesn't tell really anything about what's going on in the story, but hopefully it'll intrigue you.
"Mom I don't wanna go in anymore," I said, suddenly nervous. "You were right. I don't need to be here. Let's go home," I said turning around. Before I could get too far, my mom slapped me in the back of the head. I turned around to look at her. "What was that for?"
"What's the matter with you? You're were excited in the car."
"Yeah, well that was in the car. Before I realized that I know absolutely no one here!" My mom just looked at me before sighing.
"I really don't know what you're worrying about. You've never had trouble making friends before."
"Well yeah, but that's at my school. These people are actually good at what they do!" She looked at me like I was overreacting but I didn't think that I was. "And you know what that means? Probably all of them are better than me! Mom, we have to go. Now." I started running down the hall but she caught up with me.
"Calm down! You're the one who wanted to come here. I didn't want you to, but you tried out and got in. I didn't want to pay so you went and got yourself a scholarship. So don't even act like I forced you into this."
"I know. But Mom, at home I'm good at what I do and everyone else sucks so I intimidate people because of it. Now it's the other way around. I don't like it!" My mom just sighed and pulled me over to the side.
"I know kiddo, but this day was going to come sooner or later. Just say bye to me and get going. You don't wanna be late for your first class after all."
I tried looking at her with a dirty look, but it just didn't work. I think it's some kind of mom thing. Once I broke out in a smile I pulled her into a hug.
"Have fun, alright? I'll be here to pick you up in a few days."
And with that, my mom walked out the door and left me alone to start my new journey. Alone.
