B&B High School
A girl wearing big spectacles with her hair tied in a ponytail stepped out of the car.
It was her first day in high school, her mom dropped her, after she got out of the car her mom worriedly asked "Should I come in or will you manage?"
The girl replied in embarrassment, "Mom, I can manage. Don't worry"
"Okay, I will come after class to pick you up, call me if there is an emergency" Her mom still looked tense.
"Don't worry mom, I will manage. I will wait in this same place for you"
Her mom bid her goodbye and left, while driving she thought, 'Lisa will join school next week till then I need to drop Erica, how will this girl manage without Lisa, hope she takes care of herself alone.''
Erica was not sure about the directions to her classroom so she approached a group of girls who were standing near the bulletin board to ask for directions.
The group of girls wanted to prank her so they directed her to the boys washroom and she trusted them and ended up in front of the boys washroom.
Erica understood what happened, she wanted to leave immediately but her shoelace was not tied properly so she tripped and fell down, the books in her hand were scattered on the ground, two boys standing near her instead of helping her were laughing at her situation.Erica was very embarrassed and after standing up she bent down to collect her books when someone collected the books and handed it to her.
She stood up and took a proper look at the boy who helped her, he was extremely handsome and had a tender smile.
He politely gave her the books and scolded the two boys who were laughing at her.
Those two boys thought he was a senior as the boy was tall and looked older than them so they quietly left the place. "Hi, I am Steve" The boy extended his hand towards Erica.
She adjusted her glasses and nervously shook hands with him and stuttered, "Erica Miller and thanks for your help"
"It's okay, high schoolers are all assholes, don't mind them."
"You are?" She anxiously asked.
He chuckled nervously, "Today is my first day too"
"What? You are a ninth grader? A fresher?" She questioned him with her eyes wide open and she looked shocked.
He awkwardly scratched the back of his head, "I don't look like that, do I?"
"Yeah, I thought you are a senior"
"What are you doing in front of the boys washroom?"
"I asked some girls for directions and they…" Erica felt embarrassed as she was pranked.
He understood what happened, "Give me five minutes then we will go to the class together"
"Sure"
After five minutes they went to the class together.
Erica felt good that she had made a good acquaintance on her first day.
Lot of girls in their class went crazy when they saw Steve, they first thought a senior came here to warn them but then they realized he too is a ninth grade, they tried to approach him but he gave a cold and scary vibe so they preferred staying away from him.
