Emily's POV
*BEEP BEEP BEEP* Ugh stupid alarm. I pressed the snooze button and almost fell back asleep. Keyword : ALMOST. My mom dumped a bucket of freezing cold ice water on me. When I say ice water, it literally had ice in it. "Get up you waste of space!" said my mom. I should probably tell you my story. When I was 10, my dad died from cancer and my mom resorted to drinking. When she was drunk she would abuse me, and when she was sober she would verbally abuse me. I developed depression and started cutting myself, since I was 10. When my friends, which I no longer have, started suspecting something I pushed them all away. My thoughts were broken when my mom screamed "Get ready for school before I drag you there!". Oh, did I mention I was starting a new school today, Mission Creek High School. I have never even heard of it. Wish me luck.
***Skips getting ready***
- At School -
When I walked into school, I knew I was gonna get lost because it was so big. I had to go to the office first, and luckily it was right near the interance. I couldn't help but notice a really bubbly girl talking to some guys. Whatever, I have things to deal with now, and its not like anyone will ever notice me. After the office lady gave me my schedule, I went to my locker and opened it. Wow, everything I needed was already here ( Remind you of a old disney show? If it does tell me in the comments!). I looked on my schedule and saw that I have math first, ugh I hate math. Of course, I got lost on my way, and ended up on the other side of school. Then, one of the boys the bubbly girl was talking to came and said "Need some help finding your way around?". He was decent looking, but I was smart enough to know not to develop a crush on him, after all, no one wants a broken girl. I realized I hadn't replied when I said "S- sure.". Dang i'm stuttering. He chuckled and said " What class do you have?". "Math" I replied blankly. Yay no stuttering! He grinned then said "So do I! Follow me.". I did as I was told and as soon as I walked into the classroom the teacher, who I soon learned was ( I made that name up, if its your last name then... YOUR FAMOUS NOW :D) said "Oh! Look our new student, Emily Patternson (Same case with this name, but I sorta based it off a good friend of mine's name). Come intruduce youself!". Great. TONS of sarcasm there. The boy who walked me here, I still don't know his name, noticed I wasn't happy and shot me a look of sympathy. He probably did this to. I slowly walked to the front of the room and barely waved, and whispered "hi." under my breath. "You can sit next to Chase. Chase, please raise your hand." said. The boy raised his hand, and it was surprisingly the boy who walked me here. Coincidence. I say down next to him, and he whispered "At least you sit next to some one you know." and smiled at me. I didn't wanna seem bitter, so I smiled a small smile back. I looked at the front of the room and waited for this to be over.
***skips to end of math class***
The bell rang and I was glad math was over, but the teacher was nice. As I was leaving I made sure to flash her a small smile to let her know I liked her, and she smiled back, a bit more brightly than me. When I got into the hallway, Chase hurried over to me. Wow, I never thought some one would want to be near me. He said "What is your next class?". I replied with a simple "English.". For a second he looked sad, but it quickly faded away and he said "I have Science, but the room right there is English.". I looked to where he pointed, and it was right across the hall. "Thank you." I said with a small smile. He smiled back and started heading off to his class. He was nice, I thought. Then I noticed the girl he was talking to before walk in the classroom. Oh great. Note the sarcasm. I walked in the room, and the same thing happened with this teacher, . I had to sit next to that girl, I learned her name was Bree. She talked most of the class, when finally shut her up. Man shes annoying. I learned that Chase is her brother, she also has a brother named Adam, one of her best friends is some boy named Leo, and I learned every boy problem she had. She was nice though, just a little talkative. When the bell rang, she jumped up and nearly pushed me into the hall. She squealed and said "Lets have you meet my friends!". I didn't even have a choice because she pushed me over to them. She pointed to Chase and said "This is Chase, who you've already met." Then she pointed to a really tall guy who was smiling big, and she said "Thats Adam. He isn't the brightest." Then she pointed to a boy who looked about nine and said "Thats Leo. He... is Leo.". Wow. Leo looked offended and said "Hey! You can't say ANYTHING about me?!" I could sense his anger. Bree said " Well you play with dolls.". At that, everyone cracked up but me, but I did give a small smile. Leo said "They're action figures!" Bree said "Yeah, right.". Then Adam spoke up and said "What is your next class?". I looked on my schedule and said "Health". Adam got a mixture between a super excited and a phyco face and said "So do I!". Just then the bell rang, and Adam literally dragged me to Health. Wow he has a strong grip. I winced a little, because he pressed down on my cuts from a week ago, but he didnt notice. When we walked in, just like all my other teachers, made me intoduce myself. She said I could sit next to Adam. Okay, this is just freaky. I sat next to him, and he seemed pretty happy.
***Skips to end of Science class***
I didn't really talk to Adam that much. When the bell rang he said "Wanna sit with us at lunch?". I was confused by this, no one ever talked to me, let alone invite me to lunch. I looked at him confused and said "Are you sure you want me to sit with you?". He said "Yeah!" a little to loudly. I was still confused, and considered denying because I don't want to get attached to these people, because no one liked me for long. I guess one lunch won't hurt though. So I said "Okay. Sure."
*** Skips to lunch***
When I walked in the lunch room, I noticed lots of kids looked my way. Ugh thats why I hate being the new girl. I went to get lunch, and everything looked like it was alive. I ended up just getting some veggies and a apple. When I got their table they were all happy to see me. Chase seemed the happiest. He looked at my tray and eyed the food a little, but it faded soon. Bree said "Hey... wait we don't know your name." she said. Most people don't care enough to learn my name, so this shocked me. I said "My name is Emily.". Then Bree started talking. She pretty much took up the entire lunch talking about her day. I was sad to find out I had no more classes with anybody I knew. Oh well.
*** Skips to end of school day***
When school was over I walked home and saw that my mom was drunk, oh no this can't be good. When my mom saw me walk in she said "Get over here you piece of crap!" (if you can't tell i'm trying to use only clean language in the story, so sorry for sucky insults) I walked over to my mom, and she said "Go buy me more beer!" Uh oh. I knew I couldn't do that, so I knew I was gonna get hurt today. I told her I couldn't get it for her because i'm under 21, and she threw a glass bottle at my neck. Then she pushed me down and started kicking my stomach. Eventually she just told me to go to my room. I went into my room, which also had a bathroom connected, and I went in there to first check my neck. Dang, thats a lot of blood! I stopped the bleeding then check my stomach and saw that bruises where already forming. I touched my stomach a little, and cried out in pain. Bad mistake. I started feeling tired from all the blood loss, so I just went to bed.
Chase's POV
***Starts at beginning of the day***
I woke up in my capsule, time for school! I got ready then got out of my capsule, along with Adam, and Bree. Bree looked bored, and Adam looked... like Adam. came in and said "Come on guys, I will drop you off at school.". By now Leo was in the lab. Bree said "Can't we take the bus?". She doesn't like being seen with . "No! Now come on." said .
***Skips to school***
I was talking with Adam, Bree, and Leo, but wasn't really paying attention. Then, I noticed this really pretty girl walk in. She didn't look like all the other girls at the school. I liked that. I noticed she got a schedule, so shes new. When the bell rang, I noticed she was heading in the direction of my class, so I followed her. I know, I seem like a stalker. I noticed she looked lost, so I decided I help her. I found out she had the same class as me. I don't want to admit it, but I was very happy about that. When we were in class, I was even happier to have her sit next to me. I started thinking about the feeling I had when I saw her. I never felt it before. It made me happy, but also nervous. I'm not sure if I like it or not yet. Wait, am I letting this get in the way of school? No, i'm not, I won't.
***Skips to end of class***
When class was over, I noticed she got out of the classroom before me, so I rushed over to her, and found out her next class. I was sad it wasn't mine, but I didn't let it show. I wondered why I getting upset about not being around her, I mean I just met her. I showed her where her next class was, and started heading to my class. I did catch a glimpse of Bree walking in to her class. I didn't think much of it.
*** Skips to end of class again***
I rushed to be outside of her class when she got out of class. I also brought Leo and Adam with me, because they started following me. When I got there, I saw Bree dragging her over. I hope Bree doesn't scare her away. She brought her over here, and introduced her to everyone. I had wanted to do that, but oh well. Then she had a class with Adam. Another unfamiliar feeling came over me. This one I did not like. It almost brought out Spike, but I kept myself under control.
*** Skips to lunch***
I looked over and noticed she didn't have much on her plate. I was about to worry but I remembered there wasn't much served anyway. Wait, why would I worry about someone I just met? Bree was talking, but I wasn't paying attention, I was trying to figure out why I had been acting so strange.
***Skips to home***
I couldn't stop thinking about Emily. Why is this happening to me? I'm not used to not having answers. It was getting late, so Bree, Adam and I got into our capsules and went into sleep mode.
