Chapter 1

First day at school

Kaitlyn briskly smoothed her hair with her pale blue brush and gave an overlook of her reflection. Seeing a gray eyed dark-haired girl with unavoidable, chalk white skin contrasted with silky, long black hair she dropped her brush and smile wryly. My appearance improved somewhat with the help of the black eyeliner my eyes enhanced to a darker gray color. She thought. She wished she had dark blue eyes, but she also knew her eyes change colors with her mood. Her family moved from New York to McEwen Tennessee which is a really small town…she hates it. Her outfit she picked out was blue jeans, and a Hollister tee.

When she finally made it to school, the first thought went through her mind was: the school looked like a dinosaur, it was really old looking. Of course it’s been here since 1940’s. The school is a three-story but inside it’s really small, with a lot of windows or at least it looks that way.

            She saw people walking up to the high school from the sidewalk, Kaitlyn open the door then went inside. She found the office easily. The office secretary looked up at her. “You’re not supposed to be in here at this time.” She told her nicely.

            “Well I’m uh…new here, and I need to get my schedule.” Kaitlyn replied, she moved right in the middle of 2^nd semester of the school year, she hoped she didn’t miss a lot. The secretary nodded her head, she had short gray hair, with glasses, and she was probably in her late fifty.

            “You need to see the counselor when the bell rings at 7:45.” She told her.

            “Where would that be at?” she asked.

            “Down the hall, it will be on the left.” She nodded like she gotta.

            When the bell finally rang, she walked down the hallway, she knocked on the wooded door that said Ms. Hathaway (Counselor) she called out come in. she pushed the door open then went in. Ms. Hathaway has long brown hair with ruby red highlights, her eyes were golden brown. “Hey my name is Kaitlyn Lee, I’m new here.” Kaitlyn told her. The counselor nodded once.

            “Nice meeting you Kaitlyn. Here at MHS is probably just like any other high school, but that’s not the point.” Ms. Hathaway took a deep breath. “Let’s talk about classes shall we.”

            Kaitlyn moved her hair out of her eyes. After they talked about classes, Ms. Hathaway printed off her class schedule.

 

            The school walls were painted red and white, probably because it was the school colors. She walked down to the end of the hall to find her locker. When she came close to blue lockers, she found number 118. She peered down at her piece of paper to make sure this was the right number. So this is my locker, god I wish it was on top instead of bottom but oh well, this will do I guess. She putted her three binders up, and then she closed her locker.

            Her 1^st period class was keyboarding which was on the first floor, when she walked into the class room, everyone started to look at her.

            She walked up to the teacher then she said, “Hi, I’m Kaitlyn Lee and I’m new here.”

            “I am Mr. Kilburn, and you can take a seat anywhere” he said in his deep voice. “It really doesn’t matter.” She took a seat by a cute guy whom has black hair with pale blue eyes.

            Her next two classes went by pretty fast. She headed towards the stairs for her 4^th hour class which would be Algebra 1. When she finally found room 213, she went in and took a seat in the back row. She realized she was the first one in there. The teacher came over to her and then she handed a text book with a work book to Kaitlyn. Mrs. Fray has long brownish red hair with golden brown eyes. She looks like she would be nice but who knows.

            It looked like everybody started to walk in about the same time; the bell finally rang for the second time.

            “Today y’all going to take some notes, not that hard.” Mrs. Fray said. Kaitlyn could feel somebody looking at her…she turned to look at the guy whom was sitting across from her. He has brown hair with blonde highlights, it looked close to dirty blonde, and his eyes were dark blue. He gave her a sly smile. But she didn’t return it. Instead she took out her hot pink notebook and started to write down the math notes. But her mind was elsewhere.

            At least he wasn’t peeking at her anymore. She felt like she knew him before or at least saw him before but that doesn’t sound right to her.
