I am new around this area and I sort of feel like I can't do with this relocation stuff. Moving here with my parents was a total bad idea, I regret leaving Minnesota. I left my only weird friend Layla but let's hope this place will be good enough to settle in.
First day at school, "not bad, not bad", I say examining the school as I get out off my mother's car and walk towards the french doors. I go in and find students up and down excited about being back from the holidays. I have no problem with that but I feel as if this is the worst feeling ever. I walk towards the locker I am given to pact my belongings and search around for Room 9B. " Finally ", a sigh of relief coming out of my mouth as I approach the room having my books in my hand. It has been a long walk searching for that room.
I go in and find students moving up and down making noises as ever. This day couldn't start off bad now can it. I find as seat and get settled.
"Settle down students ", a woman says as she walks in. I could say that she looks presentable for someone her age and I think she is a good lady. "I am Mrs Murphy, I will be your global perspectives teacher", she states sweetly. Wow, her voice says it all. Minutes later, the door goes open and some guy whom every girl seems crazy about enters... Well he is just normal for me ,so he goes and sits at the back. The lesson continues but it looks as though girls aren't concentrating, the just can't stop looking back at where he is seated.
A debate comes up and heats the room, I can't doubt that, this debate is totally making us melt like a nuclear bomb is set straight in our location. "I agree when they say boys are idle..well still goes for girls also but in this case boys are the laziest", Gloria states confidently. "Whoa hold on, girls are way idle than boys,I mean look at the current statistics, men lead the world", Felix fights back. I really think this is sexist, everyone is lazy. We just have differences as people so it doesn't really state that we are lazy.
The bell rings and we head to the next class, well the first class was quite amazing, that debate heat off a blast. Well the guy the girls were crazy about wasn't concentrating, he looked super bored or something. I head to room 8C and still find the guy. He looks jolly this time. I take a seat and focus on the next lesson. Mr Joshwa comes in and tells us he is to teach us Physics and Chemistry. These are my favourite subjects and I can't wait to partake in the class discussions.
Class out and I go to my locker, going straight through the hallway to the cafeteria and without much realisation a guy comes off running like Usain Bolt and hits me down to the ground immediately. That hurt.. I open my eyes still moaning out of pain and find the same guy I had my classes with on top of me and that brought attention, I hate attention and now it just brought itself to me. "What the H dude?", I angrily shout as he recoils and stands up lending me a hand and picking me up. "I am sorry ", he smirks at me and I find myself super annoyed and I am close to cutting that head off his body. "Don't you have eyes to see or are those just crystal balls pressed inside your face? Look where you're going next time."
"I said I am so-"
"Whatever don't do that again", I press a smile and turn back to leave. He immediately calls out and I look back." I never got your name, who are you?". "Lord does this have to happen? I am Alexis Cole and you are?, I smile sarcastically. "I am your next... I am Gabriel Jade, the bad boy of this school and of course the quarterback of the football team", he confidently states and leans on the lockers. "Oh so you're the guy every girl in this campus fusses about, it must be great to be rank one in the top gossips.." "It's not... It's irritating and a lot", he presses a smile. Well that's not true, he looks to be loving every second of it."Come down to earth", he waves his hands in front of my face suddenly cancelling my thoughts.
"Nice knowing you Gabriel", a sarcastic smile exhibits from my face, I look up to find him looking at me and giving a devious smirk, what's wrong with him.. Lord knows what he is thinking. I turn back and head to the cafeteria.
First day was not awful as I thought I did find everyone too much and I seem to be the weirdo here. I wait for my chauffeur to arrive and go home."How was your first day honey?", mommy shouts from the kitchen island as I get in the house. "Couldn't be bad enough" I shout and head straight to my room upstairs and fall onto my bed, listening to some smooth jams. Chicago was totally unfamiliar for me, having dad transferred almost every time is like a burden. I have been in Minnesota the last few years and adapted to the place, now I am in a new location and I know no one.
Next day, it seems cool unlike yesterday, the candidates have settled in and I quickly go to the my first class. It was boring as hell but I made it out alive and can't wait to see myself home. I am an A+ student, I don't blame myself for that although classes are becoming boring because I already knew what we were doing. As I open my locker to put my books, a group of glistening girls approaches me. They look too uptight and so glamorous for people their age. "Hey nerd, how are you?", the look-like queen B, Priscilla Hayden looks at me."Are you talking to me?", I surprisingly stare at her."Whom does it look like I am talking to? Are you that blind to see?",she gruffly speaks back. I think it kinda hurt to hear someone say that, I mean I know I am weird and a total nerd but I thought it doesn't show. "Oh sorry, I didn't realize that", I speak out of disinterest. She somehow realizes how sarcastic I am becoming and goes on fire.
"Hey little missy, you can't answer me like that,I can ruin you", she states,"please just leave me alone", I say with a devious expression. "Don't get too proud with me,I can make you school days a living hell ","Don't try to reveal my bad side cause you won't like it", I roughen my voice and stare at her," Well it wouldn't hurt for you to try", she proudly claims. "Little girl, don't try to turn me into a demon, I bite and I kill", I say proudly revealing a smile on my face and she immediately leaves after the sound of those words that threatened her and I liked every second of it albeit it hurt being called a nerd. I force a tear to not leave my eyes because I know I am strong and I can't let words define me, I just cannot.
I head to my secret spot, take out my diary and begin to write also taking out my iPod and listening to music. "Dear diary, school's becoming bad and I am facing bullies wherever I go, I knew that it wouldn't be easy trying to fit in in this school, I am just too different from all these other students and that won't change soon but I will have to be strong enough to take them on and not let them hurt my feelings". I close it up and put it in my bag pack. A leaf of a palm tree falls on my lap and up, I see Gabriel standing in front of me, what does he want here and how did he find me?
"What are you doing here?, how did you find me? ", I look at him with a blank expression, he smirks and looks at me," I have my ways". This was just weird, was he following me or what?, I get lost in my thoughts trying to figure out how did he find me or if he is stalking me but I leave it anyway and focus on him. "So what can I help you with?" ,I politely say to him as I give him a smile. "I was wondering if you could do me some favor"
"Favor? What kind?"
