-Now-
I walked through the doors of the school and everyone started to stare at me. I mean it's a small school, so everyone has to know everyone. It's strange being the new girl in school. Actually, it's strange being the new girl in a whole new atmosphere.
This short Latino girl came up to me and introduced herself. "You must be new here, hi! I'm Trish and this is Dez," she smiled. First day, and I already made an acquaintance or two?
"Hello, I'm Ally," I smiled back. Trish is very short, which is not bad considering I'm short too. Dez must be her boyfriend? He's odd. He already gives me an odd vibe right from the start. Not a bad vibe, but a this-boy-is-strange-vibe. Dez is wearing checkered pants, a cat shirt, and a cardigan; I'm assuming that he is an art student?
"What classes do you have?" Trish said, as I snapped out of my trance.
"Oh, right, sorry. AP Calc with Fuller, AP English with Campbell, Lunch, Study hall, and then gym," I mumbled. In addition to me being the new girl, they probably think I'm dorky.
"Ahh, smart girl," this blonde boy came up behind me.
"And you are…?" my heart started to pound
"My name is Austin. You must be Ally, am I right? Your father owns Sonic Boom?" he smirked, and moved next to me.
"Yeah, ha ha, he does," I awkwardly stuttered
"Well, it's nice to meet you Ally. I'll see you around," he walked off, catching up with a blonde girl, who immediately kissed him.
"That's Austin Moon. He's Dez' best friend and also an idiot like him," Trish said while laughing.
"Are you two dating?" I blurted out.
"NO" they yelled in unison. Funny, I would have assumed that they were.
"Anyway, Austin wants to be famous. That has been his goal for a while, but his dad told him he had a one in a bazillion chance, so he's been trying to prove him wrong since," Dez chuckled
"My dad told me the same thing…"
"You sing?" They looked at me, surprisingly; do I not look like a singer?
Before I could speak, they called Austin back over.
"Hey Austin, Ally sings!" Trish beamed.
"Really? That's cool," he eyed me up and down as if he is surprised.
"I have awful stage fright. I don't think anyone could ever hear me," I started to ramble.
"Don't let your stage fright get to you. You're probably awesome," Austin smirked.
"Thanks Austin, anyway, I have to get to class, bye, I'll see you tomorrow?" I sighed and walked off.
"Actually, we all have lunch together. We'll save you a seat," Trish waved from a distance.
The fifteen minutes of anxiety are over, but at least I made two, no, three new friends. High school is not as bad as what people think. I think people overreact to school. Personally, I love it.
