Chapter 2 - Kaitlyn

766 Words
"What do you have now?" I ask, looking at my timetable. "English and you?" My best friend replies, leaning over to catch a glimpse of the paper in my hand. "German", I point my finger at one of the small fields on my plan. He sighs: "It was clear that we have nothing in common." "Hey, do not bluff directly," I grab his schedule and begin to compare our hours: "Look, we have sports, math, history and social studies together." "That's still too little," he pouts and I roll my eyes. "You'll see me often enough," I promise and then take a look at my mobile phone display. "I'd rather go now", with these words I make a short picture, so I do not have to get the plan out again and then put it in my jacket pocket. "What, no, you can not go yet," he grabs my arm to make me stay. "It rings the same but", grinning I shoed him through the blond hair, what I have to face on tiptoe, and then release me from him: "See you." "Yes, I'll see you," he calls after me as I climb the stairs to the first floor. For the first two hours, all the new tenth graders and those who, like me, moved here from junior high school, had an introductory event. I noticed a lot of my peers seem to be here this year. In principle, this is not bad. After all, I am not the only one who is completely disoriented here. When he rings, I have already arrived on the top floor and am looking for my room. I read the signs on the rooms until I stop in front of the number 312. Arrived at the door, some of the other students are already at the door, talking animatedly or playing around on their cell phones. Feeling a bit out of place, I lean against the wall and watch the others more or less interested. A blonde girl with slightly tanned, caramel-colored skin draws my eyes to her. As she looks in one direction, I catch a glimpse of her blue eyes, which stand out slightly. Apparently she notices me, because she gives me a friendly smile. Right away she is nice to me. But before I can react to it, a man appears in my field of vision, who seems rather instructive. However, this already makes a better impression than the people who have taught me otherwise and that definitely speaks for him. "Good morning," he greets us kindly, before he pulls a bunch of keys out of his pocket and unlocks the door. The whole course follows him straightaway. The first day of school is always the easiest. At the most we discuss all kinds of organizational stuff and do not actually teach. That's why this day is undoubtedly always the best! Arriving in the room, I notice that the tables are arranged in a U-shape. I quickly drop to a seat near the windows and hang my jacket over the back of the chair. Having the door in my back makes me nervous. To my astonishment, the girl I've already noticed can be seated at the table on my left. She puts her backpack under the table just like me. The others are also searching for their places without further ado, and I am watching my classmates with interest. "Hey", the girl speaks to me and I turn her head to her: "Are you new here?" I'm glad that she tries to start a relaxed conversation, which is why I jump in directly. "Yes," I sigh: "You too?" "Yes, and it makes it easier for me not to be the only one," she gives me a friendly smile: "Incidentally, I'm Harley." "Nice to meet you", I stretch out my hand: "I'm Kaitlyn." She grabs my hand and shakes her with a friendly smile. "Did you have any trouble finding the room?", She starts with a bit of small talk. "Me with my slight disorientation?", I cross my legs: "Absolutely!" "Good that I'm not the only one", she takes her college pad out of the backpack, because the teacher has begun to write something. "The guys here are looking pretty good, are not they?" She continues our conversation and I take this opportunity to study the people in question. In fact, they do not look bad. However, I am not here this year to be distracted by any boys. Instead, I just want to concentrate on the school and my grades and at best do not get distracted.
