Chapter 2
I declined the tour offered because I thought that the map was helpful but NEWSFLASH it isn't. I've skipped my first class because I went here late. Now, I'm going to be late for my second class if I can't find my Chemistry class. So much for having a fresh start. Now that I'm in the science block, all I have to do is find the class.
Not so long, I finally found my class and managed to get inside before the school bell rang. I went to the middle row of the class so that I'm not too near and too far from the teacher. Considering I still have time before class start, why not take a quick glimpse of what to expect in what I'll be learning in chemistry for the year.
I was so engaged on the topic, where most ionic compounds have high melting points and high boiling points that I almost jumped out of my seat when someone tapped on my shoulder.
"Hey, I mean Hi. Is this seat taken?" I turned around to see a girl who looks very nervous because she kept looking around rather than looking straight to my eyes, and her hands were fidgeting uncontrollably are so obvious. Shy people are actually nice to have around especially that most of them are usually an outcast, it means less drama. And less drama is what Lauren wants.
"Not really" I gave her a welcoming smile and she took it as her cue to sit down.
"My name is Camille Elizabeth but Beth for short" she introduced herself.
"Lauren Candice but LC for short. Are you new here?" I asked her.
"I am and how about you?"
"Same. Which school were you from?"
"St.Andrews and how about you?"
"Charlotte School" Great, the first day of school and I've already lied to my new friend, but I couldn't help it. I was actually supposed to go to Charlotte School because my mom wanted me to go to a school which only consist of girls, but NZIS is my dream school.
She was about to say something but was immediately cut off by our teacher introducing herself.
While I was in class, I couldn't stop wondering how is it possible to have such a small amount of students in the class. But my question, was quickly answered by a group of students coming in from the front door of the class.
After they all entered the classroom, there was a grant entrance for the popular kids. William and Scarlet holding hands together and at the back of them Kiera and Samantha. Alexander and Anthony the last to come in.
They may not like each other, but they still hang out together because they have a reputation. I understand because my best friends and I aren't best friends it was just because we had a reputation. I mean I did treat one of them as my real best friend.
Our teacher continued teaching as if it was a norm to have students coming in this late. When the popular crowd passed by me, Anthony and William both glanced in my way and I don't know why, though. I just hoped Anthony doesn't remember me. I don't want anyone to notice me.
I bet they all went late because all of them were wasted last night because of the party held before school starts. This party is held by popular kids in every school. That's why I knew about it because back then, I was the one who's throwing the party.
▪▪▪▪▪▪
It didn't take me long to find my locker room because on the way finding my chemistry class I passed by the locker rooms and was able to find my locker. But if I did get lost, all I had to do is call Camille because she knows this place better than I do. Before the first day of school, she accepted the offer to tour around the school and was apt her way here.
My third period is a free period and I don't know what to do because before we usually go out of school but I've changed. I think I'll just go to the library.
I was headed towards the library when I heard Camille calling my name so I look back and wasn't watching where I was going and bumped into someone. I said I was sorry, but she didn't say anything. I turn around and the girl who bumped into me didn't even look back to also apologize. I mean it wasn't entirely my fault. What a blonde. Oh, wait. I'm a blonde. Wow, Lauren is really rubbing on me.
What's next? I forgot I'm British, not American? Although, nobody can distinguish if whether I'm British or not because I have an American accent. I was born and raised in America and I have friends who are American.
"Hey, you okay? You guys bumped into each other, but it's like you guys were in your own world that you guys didn't care" said Camille as she approach me.
"You mean her? Because you called me so I turn around. Anyways, what do you have now?"
"I have history class" she groaned and I laughed at her. "How about you?"
"I'm having a free period," I said arrogantly.
"Show off" she grumbled and I pinched her. I just realize she's so cute and chubby but thin. She swatted my hands away which made me smile.
"And thats my cue. Bye" she said after hearing the bell ring. After that, I headed towards the library.
A few minutes later, I was reading a book when someone tapped my shoulder and my eyes were about to bulge out of my face because Anthony is standing right in front of me. He remembered me. And here I thought I wouldn't get recognized by someone.
"I was wondering why a pretty girl like you is doing in a boring place like this?" he said sitting to the vacant seat next to me.
"Maybe it's because I'm one of the outcast girls that can't get your attention," I told him while I was reading one of the books the librarian suggested. Previously, I was walking here without having any idea of what to read and I guess the librarian noticed that and helped me out.
"And what happens if I tell you unlike other outcast girls you stood among them and you manage to get my attention" obviously flirting with me.
"You're joking" I laughed not because of that but because he told some girl early morning that unlike other girls she stood among them and that she managed to get his attention. So, Anthony the player of New Zealand got the title for saying the same phrase to each and every girl? Now, I wonder how they all fall for him.
"You laugh like a hyena," he said it as a statement.
"Hey, I do not laugh like a hyena and I'm totally offended." I pouted.
"Has anyone ever told you that you look cute when you pout?" He asked.
"Has anyone ever told you that your lines don't work on me?" I smirked.
"Nobody then I guess it's really working on you" he winked. I want to wipe that smug face of his. No one has ever warned me that he's this annoying like seriously he's so immature. I was about to say something when William approached us.
"I'm sorry, is this pig disturbing you?" he asked.
"I'm not surprise because he does that to everyone" I rolled my eyes.
"I bet you like it." He wiggled his eyebrows. William rolled his eyes and pulled him away.
The bad news is Anthony notice me and that means danger but on the bright side, they didn't notice who I really am. That was a relief and I have to stay it that way. I'm dead if they found out my true identity.
