It was the first day of school and, as anyone would be, I was a nervous wreckage of emotions. I had recently moved to London from my home city of LA. I was really looking forward to the idea of starting afresh in a new high school. Well, that was until the day actually arrived that is. No amount of preparation and hype could save me from the anxiety I felt walking through those colossal, black iron gates. Blowing a strand of my long blonde hair out of my blue eyes, I stepped onto the grounds.
The school grounds were absolutely huge! The massive Victorian style main building towered above me and my guide. Crossing the front courtyard felt like a hike. I even felt like taking a break at the fountain to regain not only my breath but my confidence. I took a seat on the edge of the fountain and as soon as my rear hit the marble edge my mind started to drift. My guide was still talking and trying to present me with some facts about the school, soon after she realised I wasn't listening she left to go to her own class.
Whilst I was reflecting on my life choices that led me to this point, I was completely oblivious to the incoming soccer ball. "HEADS UP!" I heard someone shout before I fell back into the fountain and blacked out.

I regained consciousness to find myself laying on a small white bed in the middle of a white room. There was a metal table sitting opposite my bed, sitting on it were a few medicines and a first aid kit. However, that wasn't the only thing in the room. As I glanced around the room I found myself staring into a big pair of deep brown eyes. The eyes belonged to a boy, he was around my age… probably in my year too, he had quite a slim yet strong figure. His dark red hair fit around his face perfectly. Needless to say, he is quite cute!
We sat there looking at each other for what must have been a few minutes at least. Then, in came the nurse. "Ah, you're awake…finally" She said, muttering the last part in hopes I wouldn't hear.
"Um y-yeah, what happened exactly? All I remember is sitting on the fountain and then blacking out." I said confused. The boy sitting to my left rubbed the back of his neck nervously, and I had an idea that he had something to do with me being here.
"You were hit in the head by a group of students playing football in the main courtyard." Explained the nurse, the tone of her voice showed her disinterest in why I was here. Who could blame her though, this probably happened a lot. "I came up here during my break after I saw this young gentleman carrying you to my office. Isn't that right Caleb?"
A/N: YAY! First chapter finished woo. If you have any suggestions feel free to leave them in the reviews section. CYA!
