You still remember that night like it happened yesterday. You remember you and your mom rushing to the hospital. You remember dropping to the floor and sobbing when they told you that your dad wouldn't make it. And most of all you remember the pain you felt when it hit you that he was gone forever. But never mind that. You're going to start fresh because you know your dad would want you to move on. Your second alarm goes off and you groan feeling around until you hit the button to shut it off. Suddenly your bedroom light flicks on and you feel like you're gonna go blind.
Your Mom: first day at your new school sweetheart, u excited?
You turn over so that you're facing her
You: Far from it
Your mom chuckles
Your Mom: well even if you aren't you better start getting ready, you don't wanna be late
You half smile and sit up as you stretch. You then get out of bed and go to the bathroom to shower, brush your teeth, and wash your hair. You return to your room to put on makeup, do your hair, and get dressed. You decide to wear a white long sleeved crop top and black jeans along with your Air Force 1s. You then run down the stairs and grab your book bag and your keys. You walk over to your mom and kiss her cheek
You: bye mom love you
Your Mom: no breakfast?
You: i'll grab something on the way
Your Mom: alright...love you too
She smiles and then you walk out the door, stopping at Starbucks for breakfast on the way to school. Once you arrive at school you take a deep breath and sigh.
You: A fresh start...
You walk into the doors of school with your schedule and coffee in your hand.
You: Room 107...where tf is that?
You scan the busy hall for someone who looks approachable enough to ask. You walk up to a girl with medium length blonde hair thrown up into a claw clip, a pink top with light wash denim shorts, and Air Forces 1s too. She's looking down at her phone when your approach her
You: Excuse me..?
She looks up at you and smiles
??: Hey what's up?
You: I need help finding room 107, it's my first day here so
??: Yeah of course follow me!
Her eyes creases as she flashes you a warm smile. You follow her as she leads you to the classroom.
??: My name is Casey by the way, what's yours
You: I'm Y/N
Casey: That's such a pretty name, why'd you move here?
You: Oh you know just to get a fresh start...
Suddenly a group of boys come running down the hall, yelling and screaming. One of them accidentally bumps shoulders with Casey
Casey: Sora watch we're you're going...damn
As he turns back to apologize to Casey he locks eyes with you and winks. You blush a little bit you don't let it show.
Sora: Sorry Casey...
She scoffs and rolls her eyes. She points at the door next to her.
Casey: This is your class, if we have lunch together come find me! You can sit with me
You smile at the invite and enter into the classroom. You take a seat at the very back of the room and pull out your notebook. You slide down into your seat knowing this hour of class is gonna hell...
