Chapter 2

"CAL, WAKE UP! WE'RE GONNA BE LATE!"

Sigh. The first day of school.

I got up and put on my dark brown khaki shorts with a light blue fitted sweater. I quickly combed through my light auburn thick mess I sadly called hair and let it flow down my back as usual. After, I went to the bathroom to apply eyeliner to my chocolate brown eyes and long lashes. Looking in the mirror, I wouldn't call myself ugly, I thought I had definitely matured since my 7th grade year. In looks and on the inside. I wasn't as shy as i used to be, and measurably not as small in the chest area either.

"CAL! WE HAVE TO GO!" My mother yelled snapping me out of cognition.

"C-Coming mom." I said as I grabbed my bag, and walked out.

At school i went directly to the councilor's office just like i did at my last school. There I got my schedule and was taken on a tour around the school by a way too cheerful office aid and group of other new students.

"Ok guys, wow isn't this exciting? Here's the cafeteria, where you will be eating lunch for the rest of the year. Oh, and this..."

"Hey, what's your name, I'm Garret Mathews."

I started to take an analysis of Garret. He looked just as uncomfortable as i did taking this tour. He actually looked kinda bored, with his hands in the pockets of his worn black jeans. I could slightly hear a slur of rap coming from the headphones he wore round his neck. looking back at his face I remembered he was waiting for my answer.

"Oh, um hi I'm Calentine Cosman."

"Cool name, imma call you C.C. If that's ok with you?" He added looking at me expectantly.

"Uh, yeah that's cool." He nodded and went back to listening to his music.

"All right you guys I think that's it. You all have your class schedules." She checked her watch. "Now the first period bells about to ring, hurry so you wont be late. Oh and remember, have an OUTSTANDING day!"

I left to go to my locker.

When I got there I noticed that Garret's was only a few locker's down from mine.

"Hey! C.C. What's your first period?"

I gave him my schedule.

"Oh cool. We have like four classes together, first, second, fifth, and seventh, here look." I took his schedule and saw that he was right.

"Good." I said " It would be nice to know at least one person."
