Chapter 1
Must… turn… it…off… SNOOZE you stupid alarm and let me sleep!
“Jade, you need to wake up. You don’t want to be late for your first day.” My mom said as she tried shaking me awake. I turned my head toward her and opened my eyes just enough to see her dark brown eyes looking down at me.
“I barely got any sleep last night, Mom. Just give me five more minutes.” She sighed and let me go back to sleep.
I was finally able to open my eyes and check the time.
“Oh crap!” I was super late. This is not how I pictured my first day at White Oak High. I had a plan. Everything was going to go perfectly. Not anymore.
By the time I got to school and found my classroom, I was thirty minutes late. Of course the one class I had to be late for was calculus, the worst class ever.
I walked in and looked around the room, no empty seats.
“Can I help you?” I lifted my eyes up to see that it was the teacher talking to me. Ugh of course. Called out within the first second of my first day.
“Yeah, I’m new here and supposed to be in this class.”
“Ah, yes. Jade Knight. You can just pull up a chair over there for now until I can get another desk brought in.” Following his finger I saw he was pointing at the only larger desk in the room. There was a sweet looking girl sitting there who began to move her things when she realized she would be sharing her space with me.
“I’m Anna.”
“I’m Jade” I said, smiling back at her.
