The clock in the room read 6:15. BEEP, BEEP, BEEP it started before being shut off.

Ryan O'Neil slowly woke up, got out of bed and yawned. He looked out the window, his eyes adjusting to the sun as it started to rise over the horizon and shone in. Another day, another summer over, a new school year starting, and now a new home, he thought. He looked over towards the desk in his room.

On it, there was a picture his mother, a younger brunette girl, and one of them together in front of a house, everyone smiling. He walked towards the pictures and picked up the one of the girl.

He sighed and said to himself "First school year without you sis," as he ran his fingers over the image of the girl. He then put the picture down and sighed again. He looked out the window, May as well get ready, he thought.

He went into the bathroom, took a shower and brushed his teeth. When he came back he grabbed and put on a pair of semi brown cargo pants then a long sleeve shirt that he tucked in and put on a belt. He then went to the kitchen and made himself breakfast. As the phone rang as he finished.

"Hello" He answered.

"You wake Ryan?" The person on the other end of the line said.

"Yes mom, no being late to school for this kid," He replied

"Okay just wanted to make sure, have a great first day at school and have fun," she said.

"Yea I will, and you have a good first day at work," he said as he began to hang up the phone.

"Oh, Ryan one more thing," she asked.

"Yea" he questioned.

"Do try to make friends; not everyone is the same," She stated worriedly.

"I'll try, I'll see you later," he said then hung up. "I'll try" he said to himself sadly.

He then went back up to his room and grabbed a heart shaped locket off of the desk. He put it around his neck and opened it up, inside it was a picture of his sister. He then smiled and closed the locket then hid it under his shirt.

As he grabbed his backpack and headed out the door he looked at the clock; it read 6:45. Great he thought I can explore a little as I walk to school. He then walked out closing the door behind him and started walking towards school. As he walked he came to Danville Park and decided to go through it rather than walk around.

As he cut through the park he heard and watched as the birds began to sing and fly. He then looked towards the lake and watched as the steam rose off the water. He stopped and observed his surroundings, I'll have to come by later to sit and relax; he thought he sighed. Still thinking to himself and, he pulled out the locket, opened it and looked at the picture again, you would have loved this place.

He looked back up and said "It's so peaceful and quiet here".

"Yes it is," someone said from his side.

"Gah," he replied as he jumped and fell backwards on to the ground.

"Oops, Sorry" the unfamiliar voice giggled.

"It's fine," Ryan replied as he tried to get up, "Serves me right for being in deep concentration."

"Here let me help you," the unfamiliar voice said as a hand was extended towards him.

"Thanks" he replied as he took it.

As he got up, he let go of the hand and looked towards his mystery scarer. It was a girl about his age, about 5'4" with blonde hair pulled into a single pony tail, and green eyes. She wore a yellow long sleeve shirt with jeans.

As he examined the person in front of him she said

"Sorry about scaring you, I sometimes scare people because I move so quietly. I'm Katie by the way." She extended her hand towards him again.

"Ryan," he replied as he shook her hand, "and it's fine I was deep in thought about something but no harm done." He said as he closed the locket then hid it under his shirt.

"You're new around here aren't you," she asked.

"Ah yeah, how did you know?" He answered.

"I recognize a lot of people that live here, but I've never seen you before," She replied.

"That's because I just moved here with my mother about 2 weeks ago from the adjacent area" He said.

"Just you and your mom," she questioned. Ryan nodded. "What about your dad?"

"He left when I was nine years old, I haven't seen or heard from him since," he replied sadly and somewhat angrily.

"Oh" she replied looking down in shame, then said "I'm sorry."

"It's okay I've accepted it" He muttered, she then asked, "Any brothers or sisters?"

"Um" Ryan said hesitantly. "n-n-n-n-no" he stuttered he then asked. "Why are you out here anyway?"

She raised an eyebrow in question but then said "I come though here on the way to school. It's peaceful and quiet, it also helps me calm down if I'm upset or nervous."

"I see, speaking of school I should get going if I'm going to make it," he replied.

"Mind if I walk with you," she asked.

"No, not at all" he replied.

They began walking out of the park towards the school making small talk along the way. When they arrived at school and began walking through the doors they both stopped by the desk to pick up their schedules and locker numbers.

"I have to go, I promised to meet a friend," she said.

"Okay, goodbye Katie" he replied

"Bye Ryan it was nice to meet you, hope see you later"

He smiled and watched as she disappeared in the crowd he took out his locket and looked at the picture in it. She's a lot like you sis. Maybe not all people are the same after all. he thought. He tucked it back under his shirt and began looking around. He started walking until he accidently bumped into someone.

"Sorry," he said.

"You better be whelp," the stranger replied.

Ryan looked at the person who spoke and saw a kid that looked older than him. He was about 5'8" and appeared a little overweight. He wore a white shirt with a brown jacket and jeans with holes at the knees.

"Nice to meet you too," Ryan replied sarcastically.

"Do you know who your speaking too," the stranger angrily questioned.

"No, nor do I want to," he replied.

He heard many gasps and saw people putting hands over their mouths. He then looked back at the the stranger who then grabbed his shirt and moved his face closer to Ryan's. Ryan noticed that the kid had heavy acne and very bad breath.

"Listen, new kid, my name is Alex and nobody messes with me or disrespects me," He stated

"I can smell and see why," Ryan replied.

"Oh a wise guy eh, well here's what I do to wise guys." Alex said as punched Ryan in the gut then let him go. Ryan was coughing from having the wind knocked out of him. "And don't you forget it," Alex said as he walked away.

Okay maybe people are the same after all, he thought. He then looked up and saw everyone just watching him. He then stood up while struggling a little. He sighed and thought Just let me get through today. I don't want to experience this again.

He walked around a little, still looking at his schedule. As he looked around he saw a kid with green hair and an f-shaped head pointing at him and four other people watching. He shot a glare towards the green haired stranger and then received a glare from the girl that was with the group. Ryan started walking towards the lockers. He then thought I stand corrected, I am going to experience it again.
