I stared at the huge building in front of me, colorful glass lined the outside of the building making it the prettiest school I had attended. I mean I had only been to 3 schools. When I left the palace I stayed on the down low for a while. It took 3 months to join my first school. After 2 months there I decided I wanted to move further away since there was still talk of princess Arabella's disappearance. They called me the run away princess. I then attended my second school for 5 months but I found I didn't quite fit in with the people and grew to dislike it. I was still new to school and not used to it like everyone else so I was considered weird. In my Third school I lasted 3 weeks, I left because some one mentioned how they thought they recognized me and I wasn't taking any chances so I moved further away again. Now here I am, 17 years old and starting my fourth school in a different country to where I'm royalty. Hopefully this school is the one and I can finally settle down and make a home somewhere. "Hello, I'm Rosalie Parker. I'm new here and was told to collect my timetable" I told the women. Rosalie Parker was the name I was now going by. I created a new me. Although basically on the run I was starting to feel relatively normal. "Good morning darling. Here you go. Let me walk you to your first lesson since I'm heading that way" The receptionist was a short old lady with grey curly hair. Her eyes held story's and her skin radiated years spent loving life. "Thank you so much" I told her when we reached the door I peered through the window and the class looked quite full. Your fine, just open the door. Suddenly the door sprung open and there stood who I'm guessing is the teacher. "You do realise you have to open the door to get into the classroom right?" He asked I didn't like his attitude "Of course, I was just mentally preparing myself for your bad attitude clearly" I replied Stepping past him I began heading to the only spare seat I could see while trying to keep my head low. I can only hope this class goes very fast. To my disappointment the class went very slow and the teacher who's name I didn't even find out just seemed to be in a bad mood. I hope he isn't always that way otherwise I don't think I will be able to cope. Reaching lunch break I managed to make it to the canteen where after a good amount of time searching I found a table to myself. It would be okay to sit alone for now since it's my first day but I have to make some friends eventually if I want to fit in. As if reading my mind a dark headed girl sat opposite me. "Hey" she smiled "Hello" "New right?" "Yeah first day" "Tough, where you from? I can hear an accent" "Just up north" I lied. Part of my new identity was that I was from 'up north'. I would never name my real home as I decided to give no clues away although let's face it who is really going to get suspicious? "Ah, I'm Kaitlin and your name is" "Rosalie" "Cute But I'm shortening it. Okay rose?" "Sure Kate" She smiled before munching away at her food. We ate in silent smiling at each other every so often but it was nice being with someone. In my previous schools I had been very awkward but now I've had enough practice and pretty much know how to act like a real teenager. "What's your last subject of the day?" "Chemistry" I told her "Cool, me too what class?" She asked "Room 329" "Well you should follow me, best to get a good seat" She explained to me Nodding I began following her. When we got to the class there was only 3 other students and the teacher waiting. "Let's go to the back?" I asked I hated being at the front it always gave the teacher reason to look at your work or ask you questions. "No, I'll help you out and tell you that in this class you never sit at the back okay. It's simple knowledge. Now how about here?" We wasn't completely at the front so I decided to agree while getting out my stuff. "Why can't anyone sit at the back?" I questioned Kate as I noticed people starting filling the room all avoiding the back. "You might find out soon but I wouldn't worry about details right now." Details? Details about what? The teacher who's name was mrs.crow decided to do the classic and invite me to the front to tell everyone my name. "I'm Rosalie Parker and it's my first day here" "What a lovely accent, where did you live before?" "Up north" I lied again "Oh really?" "Yes positive...can I sit now?" "Yeah sure" Sitting down I tried to avoid the glances I was receiving off fellow pupils. I really didn't want attention. "You any good at chemistry?" Kate asked "Not really, my previous school weren't good" "Ah that's a shame, guess I will help you. I don't mind" Does this make Kaitlin my first friend made in school? I sure hope so. By the end of the lesson I had actually learnt quite a fair bit and I was looking forward to my next chemistry lesson. However I still didn't understand why no one would sit at the back since the seats remained empty all lesson. Just like the beginning of the day I found myself stood at the front the building staring at its exterior. Lilly always takes ages to pick me up. Finally, after arriving 5 minutes late I got in to her car. "So how was it?" She asked "Actually rather good, it might be the one" I smiled "It better be after all the running and moving we've done. I just want to settle down" she told me "Me too and we will. I didn't drag you along with me just to fail" "Let's just go home, I'm so tired. Work Killed me" "Oh Lilly, such the drama queen" "Oh Arabella, a run away future queen" When ever it was just me and Lilly she would use my real name since that's what she knew me best as. Lilly had been my company since I left the palace. We've traveled and lived together since and she's become my sister. I couldn't be with out her. Lilly is 20 years old, so being that bit older she is also my guardian. Although we have our story straight incase anyone asks. We are cousins and she's looked after me since she was 18 when she could finally get custody of me because I don't know my parents. On a whole life was pretty good at the moment and surely things can only get better.
