Ring! Ring! Ri-
I slam my hand down on the alarm clock and groan. Rubbing my face I slowly and groggily get up. The pitter patter of my feet echoing in the box filled hallway as I make my way down to the bathroom. After doing my business, I hop I Into the shower and rub all the morning grogginess away. Sitting in the shower I start to think about my new school."will anyone like me?", "am I going to be a loner?", "are the teachers nice?". My mind then starts to think about the mysterious boy I talked too yesterday. "I never got his name yet he got mine." I thought. I shake my head to rid the thoughts roaming inside.
I step out and get dressed. I put on some ripped black skinny jeans with a red dress shirt and I knitted grey cardigan with white vans. I put my hair up into a messy bun and decided that I was not going to put contacts in. I did some light makeup and put my glasses on. They looked like stained wood and complemented my face structure and crystal blue eyes. I grab my black book bag and rush downstairs.
All of a sudden I saw toast rushing at me and I quickly activated my reflects and just barely caught the piece of toast. I looked at it for a second before taking a big bite. Mom looked at me while chuckling.
"Nice catch! Still thinking about joining the softball team?"she said as she turned around and moved the eggs in the pan.
"You know it! I plan to be the best!" I strike a silly pose and raise my hand in victory as I start whispering my name as if a crowd was cheering me on. Mom joined in and we both started chanting Clara before bursting out laughing.
"Oh, my little Tom boy, what am i going to do with you?"she shakes her head and silently chuckles to herself. I take my phone out and check the time. My eyes widen in surprise.
"Oh shoot mom I gotta go!" I start rushing to pack my brand new school supply's, then start running to the door before hearing mom shout franticly
"Bye! Love you! Stay safe and NO BOYS!" She yelled the 'no boys' part very loudly. I rolled my eyes and said bye before rushing out to the car. I dump my stuff in and hop in. Shoving the ignition key in.
"Shoot, I can't be late in my first day!"I turn the key and the car coughed to life before shutting down.
"No...no...no,no,no,no,no" I try again but the same outcome came.
"Hey!" A familiar voice yells. I turn around and look out the window to see the mysterious boy. I hop out and heave a sigh.
"Hi" I say with a droopy expression.
"Looks like you need a ride, hop on in." He pats the side of his truck before looking at me again. I look at him for a second. "Should I go?" "What if he robs me, or worse takes me an abandoned house into the middle of the woods." I look around. "Yup, many trees, perfect for hiding a body" he gives me a confused glance before talking
"Hey trust me I'm going to your school as well."He looks at me with an amused smirk.
"How do you know what's school I'm going to?" I ask bewildered. He chuckles.
"Because its a small town and there is only one high-school here." I suddenly felt very dumb. Of course he is going to my school! And of course he is offering me a ride. I give a slight awkward chuckle before rushing to the car, grabbing my things and getting inside the truck.
I look over To him and he looks at me.
"Don't worry, I'm not going to kill you." He raises his brows and shakes his head before giving his attention to the road ahead.
I took this time to look at him. Not in a creepy way but....I don't really know anymore. He was wearing a white t-shirt with some black ripped jeans. Oddly enough, we kind of matched.
"You look nice." He whispered out of the blue. It made me jump and give my glance to the window. I pushed my glasses up a little before saying a quiet Thank-you.
He reaches over and turns on the radio. It starts playing Bohemian Rapsity. My mood Brightens up immediately as I start to softly hum the lyrics. He turn to look at me for a second before locking his gaze on the road.
"You like Queen?" He asked slightly surprised. I gasped then scoffed playfully.
"It's like the best band in the universe" I said slightly giggling.
"Well glad to know because it's also my favorite band" he said with a growing smirk.
We spent the rest of the time in the car talking about Queen and before we knew it we where in-front of the high-school. All of a sudden I remembered that I haven't even got his name yet. I whip my body over and ask with wide eyes
"I never got your name yet you got mine, so what is your name." I said with a detective like voice. He chuckles before turning to look me in the eyes.
"My name is Kane." He whispered.
"Kane" I test it out. It rolled perfectly off my tongue.
"Well Kane, it's nice to finally meet you" I said with a triumphant smirk. He smirks and shakes his head before parking and heading out of the car. I follow him like a lost puppy until we reached the entrance. I stop and look up. It's huge. Kane looks behind him to see if I'm following, once he sees I'm not he backtracks and stands behind me. He leans down and whispers in my ear.
"Welcome to North Calla high."
