I shut the school door just before the bell rings for the first class of the day. Teenagers that were once talking in their little friendship groups are now either staring at me, the new girl or are rushing to their classes. I sigh and push my way past everyone, elbowing whoever I need to. In all the effort I use by trying to keep my head down and go unnoticed, I manage to attract the most attention by walking into somebody.
"Oh!" I exclaim as my feet tumble over each over and I crash to the floor. Before my body comes into contact with the ground, a strong pair of arms wrap around my waist. My feet are glued to the floor, the mystery persons arms secured tightly around my body and my head tilted back. If you didn't know what happened you could've said we were in the middle of a famous dance number.
I look up at the person through my eye lashes and I gasp at the amazing colour of this boy's eyes. They weren't sky blue, they won't aqua blue, they weren't any colour I had seen before. "Are you okay? I'm sorry, I didn't see you there," His voice is almost as amazing as his eyes. This is the kind of boy that a giggling teenage girl would call her "Soulmate."
"Y-Yeah," A blush covers my cheeks as I struggle to speak, memorized by him. I shake my head, "I'm fine. Thank you."
He smiles, showing pearly white teeth, a smile that reaches his eyes and makes me feel warm deep inside. "I'm Peeta and you are?"
"Katniss, I'm new," I say quietly.
"Well, welcome to Panem High!" He greets. "Do you want me to show you around?"
"Only if you don't mind," I smile a little.
"No problem," He winks at me and guides me to reception where I'll get my schedule. "So, what brings you here?" Peeta asks.
I sigh, I don't really want to say, "Oh you know, sister died unexpectedly, parents broke up and my Mum fell into a deep depression which she is now recovering from. Just the usual, y'know?" No, I don't want that. He'll probably make me a pity friend. So instead I just say, "My Mum fancied a change."
Peeta must sense that I don't want to say anymore on the topic so we walk in silence. "Here we are!" I nod and walk up to the desk where a nice old lady sits with platinum white hair and kind eyes.
"Excuse me?" I say and the lady turns to me with a smile. "I'm new, I was wondering if you could give me my schedule?"
"Oh of course Dearie!" She says cheerfully and begins to sort through a pile of papers, she stops upon one and hands it to me. "Have a nice day!"
"Thanks, you too," I take the piece of paper from her hand and walk back to Peeta.
"What do you have first?" He asks and takes his schedule out to compare lessons.
I stare down at the paper clutched in my hand.
Period 1- English
Period 2- Music
Break.
Period 3- Maths
Period 4- Science
Lunch
Period 5- free
A growl escapes my throat as I look at the carp day that lies ahead of me. Peeta chuckles, "Looks like we have Music, Science and free period together!"
I manage to give him a small smile. The warning bell goes again and I jump at the loudness of it. "Would you like to join me and my friends for lunch?"
"Sure," I agree. Peeta grins and walks off to his first class.
I'm left confused with butterflies... no, a roaring zoo in the pit of my stomach. And its not from the fear of staring a new school, it's from the blue eyes boy that took my breath away.
I hope you like it! Please review, it makes me happy ;)
Until next time!
