I woke up to sunlight flooding my room and sat up rubbing my eyes. I could've sworn that I drew my curtains closed last night. Dad must have come in to wake me up but gave up halfway. I could literally sleep through an earthquake. Anyways, time to get ready for school.
Ugh who even invented school. Whoever did is probably dead and didn't even have to go. I want to bring him back to life and kill him.
Did I ever tell you that I'm a violent person. Yeah, I'm a handful, way too much for one person to handle. That's probably why I don't have a boyfriend. I've only had one boyfriend before but that is a bit of past that I don't want to recollect. Ever.
"Alessa, you're going to be late if you're not ready in 10 minutes" dad called from downstairs.
Well shit. Better get ready quick then. Don't wanna be late on the first day of junior year.
I quickly showered at top speed. It only took 5 minutes for me to finish showering and hop out of the bathroom. That's got to be a new record. Honestly, I don't get why most girls take so long to get ready. Anyways, I should rush before I get late.
I stood in front of my dresser and contemplated my choice of clothing for the day. Should I just go casual with a decent T-shirt, jeans and sneakers or go a little fancy with a skirt and sweater paired with boots? I should make a good impression on my first day right? Better dress safe till I understand the dynamics at school.
In the end, I decided on a pair of navy skinny jeans and an off shoulder grey sweater paired with black ankle boots. I slung my bookbag over my shoulder and raced down the stairs praying that my clumsy ass would fall.
Dad and Alex were in the kitchen. Dad was flipping pancakes while Alex was gobbling them down. I grabbed a piece of buttered toast off the table and an apple from the fruit bowl." Get a move on Alex! We're going to be late"
"Is that all your eating? " Dad asked looking at the slice of toast and apple in my hand that I decided was my breakfast, disapprovingly. "I'll get something from the vending machine on the way to class" I reassured him.
I then grabbed Alex, who was still eating at top speed, by the hand and pulled him out the front door, yelling " Bye dad".
"Have a good day at school both of you" came the response.
I pulled Alex over to my red Chevrolet "Get in"
"Ummpha phoona moon" came the response from Alex
I looked at my 13 year old brother in disgust. "Stop talking with your mouth full, it's disgusting. And how are you still eating! I swear to god you eat more than me and dad combined even though your the youngest"
Alex rolled his eyes at me and got in the passenger seat. As I started to drive, my brother opened his stupid mouth " Don't tell anyone your my sister ok?"
"Why not? "
"Have you seen yourself? What are you even wearing ?" Alex exclaimed dramatically.
"What's wrong with what I'm wearing? And besides why are you wearing a leather jacket to school? And is that gel in your hair?"
"Well at least I look better than you. I mean seriously Less? A sweater and jeans? You could at least make an effort to look hot"
"No thank you. I prefer comfort over style any day"
"And you wonder why I don't want to acknowledge you as my sister" Alex said shaking his head.
I simply shook his head at him. "We're here" I said as pulled into the parking lot of the Ravenswood high school. Wow, it looked pretty great for a high school in a small town. It kind of looked like a preppy private school. Hopefully everyone here isn't too snobby and spoilt.
"See ya Less" Alex said hopping out and making his way into the building.
I got out the car at more slower pace, taking in my surroundings. Teenagers were scattered in the lawn talking and laughing. A lot of the girls were dressed in more stylish skirts and dresses. Some of the older girls even had makeup and heels on.
I sighed and made my way into the large building, hoping I was going the right way. The inside was more empty with kids walking around getting books from the lockers in the hallway or just getting to class.
As I walked down the hallway observing my surroundings, I bumped into a body which made me look up. "I'm so sorry" I apologized to the brunette girl that I had bumped into.
She scanned me for a moment before giving me a smile "It's ok"
"Are you new? I've never seen you around before" She asked
"Yeah, I'm Alessa Di Laurentis and I just moved here from California" I said returning her smile.
"Oh that's cool. I'm Mira, I'm a junior this year. It's nice to meet you"
Mira was a slim girl about 5.3 with gorgeous bronze hair cascading down her back and chocolate brown eyes. She was really pretty and seemed like a nice person to be around. She was dressed in a simple white T-shit and navy blue jeans with white sneakers.
"I'm a junior too"
"Oh wow that's amazing. Do you want me to show you to your first class?"
"That would be great, thank you so much" I said gratefully following her.
I turned on my phone and showed her my schedule that was emailed to me from the school a couple of days ago. My first class was Math. Mira scanned my schedule quickly before saying "My first class is Math too and we seem to have a lot of classes together".
Mira led me into the classroom just as the bell rang. Most of the kids were already in their seats and stared at me when I walked in. The teacher, Mr Adams walked in behind me and asked to introduce myself, which I did before taking a seat next to Mira.
Since it was the first day of school, we didn't do a lot of work, instead recapping on concepts taught previously. I was absolutely exhausted by the time the bell rang signaling the end of class.
Mira laughed at my tiredness "Don't like Math huh?"
"Oh you have no idea. I hate Math. I don't even understand most of it" I yawned.
"Your next class is Economics isn't it? It's right over there" She said pointing at a door on the other end of the hallway.
"What do you have next? " I asked
"Biology. I'll see you after" Mira said rushing off to her class.
I walking into my Economics class and put my head down on my desk. Can I just fall asleep here?
I think I dozed off for like 10 minutes before the door opened and the teacher, who was a middle aged woman walked in. She introduced herself as Mrs Higgs and began talking about she expected of us this year.
While she was talking, the door opened and someone entered the room; the entire class looked towards the doorway to see who it was. Me being my disinterested self, I didn't even bother looking at who it was and concentrated my energy on not falling asleep.
"You're late" Mrs Higgs said to the newcomer, obviously annoyed by the interruption.
"So I am" came a deep masculine voice.
I looked up and saw the back of a tall, well toned teenager, facing the teacher. He's hot from the back, wonder what his face looks like.
At Mrs Higg's glare, he responded with a 'won't happen again' before facing the class.
Whispers and murmurs broke out amongst all the students. "I can't believe he's back already. Thought he would take more time off" murmured the girls behind me.
I looked in his direction an gasped. I knew exactly who 'he' was. There are only 2 things I hate in life- the first is cucumbers and the second is Kaden Lockhart. And one of those two is standing right in front of me.
Fuck my life.
