Belle: Chapter 1
Being the new girl was terrifying. I had to learn my way around a new place and new people. I had to adjust. I missed my old friends and my boyfriend. But I couldn't go back. I was here now. I wasn't even mad at my dad for moving the two of us. I wasn't capable of staying mad at him, never had been.
I picked a seat next to a girl who looked nice. She had brown hair set in a bun and an open sketch book in front of her. She was drawing a bird that looked so realistic, I could've sworn it was going to fly off the page. She looked at me and gave a smile.
"You must be new here. I'm Jane Porter," she said, sticking out her hand. I shook her hand.
"Hi, nice to meet you Jane. I'm Belle," I said.
"It's nice to meet you too, Belle," Jane said. I had the feeling this girl and I were going to be good friends.
Later at lunch, Jane let me sit with her. I found out that we had a lot in common. We both enjoyed tea and books. Also, we were close to our fathers and had the same favorite color.
"So tell me Belle, what's life like where you're from?" Jane asked.
"Well, it's a lot like here. Small town life. I only had a couple of friends. My boyfriend Adam is the one I miss the most," I said. She smiled a bit.
"Maybe it'll help to talk about him?" she suggested. So I told her all about him. I found Jane to be a great listener and my newest friend. In fact, because of her, my first day was going just fine.
That was, until my last class when I met him. His name was Gaston.
"Hey there, Babe," he said to me when I had walked in. I had ignored him but he didn't take the hint. He hit on me for the rest of the hour. When it ended, I simply looked at him and said, "oh how uninteresting you've made this hour." After that I got up and left.
