Time: unknown
I slept like a log yesterday. my sleep was going well until some nosy student started knocking on my door.
"Uhhh... Who's there?" I semi yelled. It's still a little bit dark so I'm guessing this is freaking 6am so who is gonna be awake by 6am?
"Its lily, remember me? I came to check on you since I didn't see you in the bathroom, I was wondering if you weren't going to class today?" Ahh lily I almost forgot everything that happened yesterday, I was too stressed out.
"Its 6 in the morning and classes start by 8, I'll come down in 7" I said
"Actually... its 7:10am and breakfast is in 20minutes" what? I don't believe this bullshit.
"Oh My God!!! " I just checked my watch and its freaking 7:10 am I've got to get dressed, its my first day I'm practically freaking out.
I burst out through the door with lily looking amazed/terrified/classifying me as a freak I don't know, I didn't bother to read her facial expression that well. I rushed to the bathroom and found an empty stall there, I hopped in, hung my towels and took a brief shower, I came out later and brushed my teeth, when I was done I hurried back upstairs. I found lily sitting on my bed staring straight at me.
"Do you mind!" I'm trying to get dressed here
"That was very quick but in order for us not to be late and have the door closed in our faces you'll have to do better" she said un bothered that I just asked her to leave
"Yeah sure I'll be quick, just give me my privacy will ya"
"Can you run" she asked from no where
"Yes why... "
"That's good because we need to be there in less than 3minutes" she said walking out "don't make me late" she then shut the door.
"Geez... I didn't ask you to wait up for me"
I took out my uniform and put it on, it had a striped pleated skirt with its color being blue and red, a white buttoned down long sleeved shirt with a GH logo and a tie with blue and red stripes, my black socks and I finished it off with one of my fav's sneakers some lip gloss, my watch... almost forgot my schedule, then I marched out.
"You look great but you're missing something" she said pointing to my shoes
"Why... What's wrong with them"
"You didn't read the student guidance book did you?"
"ok so no I didn't what of it" I fired, I am really getting sick of this chick
"All students must at least own 2 pairs of black shoes, flats for the girls and it is compulsory "
"Well no one told me that, I wore sneakers yesterday and nothing happened"
"That was not during school hours, go hurry up and change"
I had to go back in and look for my flats that I took with me, I should have know something like this would happen, when I'm leaving here I'm getting my self some new pair of flats. We rushed down the stairs and into the footpath. I'll admit she runs fast, faster than me by a few meters but I managed to catch up, we barely made it in time for breakfast but thank God we did. That man was at the door again but it seems like he didn't pay too much attention to me today. On the way i found out that lily was a year older and a grade above me and she was a prefect too, She didn't sit with me today so I had to look for Nora's geng. They sat down at the same table, just switched positions. Liam was sitting side by side with Nora, maja was sitting opposite them with Sophia and christian. Which means there's an empty slot next to Liam!. Oh today just got more awkward.
"Good morning "I greeted half smiling half blushing caus liam was looking at me today.
"Good morning" they all chorused, I adjusted my tray of toast, butter and tea and then I sat down next to Liam
"You look great" Nora said beaming
"Yes its like the school uniform was made to bring all your features into light" christian said. He's eyes were just roaming...
"Common will you stop that!. Ehem.... you look good katie" Sophia said. I couldn't help but giggle... Seems like there is a little connection there...
"Yes stop staring before you scare her away" maja said trowing a spoon at christian which he dodged
"he can be quite a womanizer so don't pay attention to him, by the way you look good" liam said.
OMG that just made my day.
"Thanks you guys "
"you're welcome" they all chorused.
"I didn't see you in the girl's shower and I kinda forgot your room name so we had to leave, are you mad? " Sophia said, she kinda had a light voice like that of a child but it was cool
"Nope I'm fine besides lily helped me" I said while talking a bite of my toast.
"Ok that's nice " she replied
"We will be taking you on a tour today so get ready, we have to show you your classes and the sports field and the chapel too, you have to see the sunset from there its beautiful right Liam " Nora said enthusiastically. She was beaming with smiles I couldn't help but reciprocate.
"Yeah" that all he just said.
"whatever you say" I smiled again.
"So bring out your schedule, we need to know who's classes corresponds with yours" I brought out my schedule from my pocket and handed it over to her.
"Lets see" she said unfolding it. " 1st period AP calculus, 2nd period English, 3rd period History, 4th period AP chemistry and 5th period languages. Ok so I have 3rd and 5 the period with you, what about you guys?" Uhh history?, I am so going to fail. I didn't even pay attention in my last school, I slept through almost every class. tell me how am i going to pass???, I mentally slapped my self. Today just went from awkward to bad
I think sophia saw my troubled face thats why she spoke up "I've got 3rd period with you guys too" she said.
"I've got languages and chemistry"christian said while nibbling on his apple.
"I've got everything but 4th and 5th " Liam suddenly spoke up. Ok so wow I'm sad-happy because he's in almost all my classes and I don't have to suffer history alone.
"Thanks Guys" I say. I really meant it
"So we've been talking and half of the dining room is empty which means class is about to start so I've gotta go" maja said
"Bye maja" we said, we finished our breakfasts and went to class. the girls couldn't take me caus they we're running late so I had to walk to my first classes with you know who. AP calculus was on the 2nd floor and it wasn't that bad, I just had to meet the teacher and give her my schedule, I introduced my self to the class and she told me her name was mrs Vilanelle, many guys seemed to like me because they kept winking at me, sure they we're handsome and I mean handsome gods but I already had my eyes for someone, I sat with a blonde girl named Kc and we instantly clicked. I didn't know I would make this many friends within my first week of coming here.
English was just down the hallway, miss Elena had that class. She was smiling when i entered but I couldn't figure out why she had an amused expression when she saw me, like she had seen me before but she couldn't pinpoint where... she had a tanned skin and she had shining black hair, she wore glasses and had brown eyes, she's young, probably the youngest teacher in this school. She didn't ask questions though she just asked me to introduce my self to the class and take my seat. Turns out Liam is really very good in poetry, he got most of the questions right and he frequently read the stanzas, he had a very soft voice whenever he was reading like as if he was the poet and he was trying to let us understand what each stanza meant. At the end of the class miss Elena said if I needed any help I could come to her, I felt a little bit secured maybe I could drop my guard down around her.
Then the time came for history.
i had a conversation with liam.... I wish... Its wasn't even a real conversation, He asked me how the day was going, if I was getting settled in in Grey high and i said yes, then... devil katie said continue the conversation which I did but I think I blew my chance. I told him I liked the way he read poems and he just looked at me and said thanks. We didn't talk after that.
i didn't even know we had reached the 4th floor for history, I walked in and i saw Sophia and Nora waving at me, I waved back and went to sit down with them. The history teacher later came in and you won't believe who it was...
Mr George! the man at the dining room that almost killed me with his stare. He called me up to introduce my self and I was shivering inside me, I couldn't sleep in his class! no way, If I did then I would rather die in my sleep instead of me to wake up and meet those cold eyes. besides I didn't want detention.
One of the rules in this school is that when you are given detention thrice on the fourth one you are given manual labor to either arrange the books in the library or trim the flowers or carry equipments into the storeroom after practice and you have to give up your weekend for it...
Someone is tapping me and I feel like I should unleash my rasengan on them no wait... shidori should be better so their hair stands up like a wicked witch's broom.Wait... When did I fall asleep?? I opened my eyes to see Sophia giving me the sorry eyes and then I knew something was up
"Yes miss Katherine we await your response" that was coming from mr George. He was just at the board a moment ago... When did he get to my seat??
"Sir what response??" I said confused. Some girls giggled at my back, I don't have time to deal with them because My George's eyes are flaming hot right now.
"There should be no response but because you were sleeping in class I decided to wake you up with a question" he said loudly. God knows I've already made enemy number 1 in this school.
"I'm sorry sir, I didn't get much sleep last night it won't happen again" I said pleading
"I will pardon you just this once but remember... I have my eye on you" he said and walked back to the board. History sucks!! Big time and he should keep an eye on his belt like seriously why does it keep on flying around like as if its superman??? Uhhhh.
I managed not to sleep again in history because mr George had his eyes on me through the class. I had to wait after class to collect the assignments I had missed and they were due friday. Uhhhh.
The rest of my classes went smoothly and I learnt a little norwegian like "good morning" is "god morgen" and "thank you very much" is "tusen takk" I can't wait to greet Nora, christian and maja
I think I'm beginning to like it here and I'm settling just fine. Maybe Grey high isn't that bad, maybe mum was right after all... well lets just wait and see, I miss my best friend but I have new friends now to keep me company.
The week went by in a flash with me attending classes with my friends and still finding it hard to talk to Liam when we were alone. I eventually got my tour on saturday and I managed to submit my history assignments with the help of my friends.
Apart from the history mess i can't believe I'm saying this but
... my life's going good!!
