*Ruby's POV*

"Wake up or you won't have time to eat breakfast." I hear Mom's voice. I grumble in bed. I didn't have much sleep last night, thanks to Lily. Lily Black my best friend since we were in first grade. I had to move last year. Mom and Dad changed work. So, we had to move. I spent like 6 or 7 hours face-timing her. Since we live overseas now. I used to live in Canada. We moved to California, United States. New school. Not really up to it but I have to. I get out of bed with a lot of effort. I go into the shower. "Mom says we're gonna miss school if you keep on being late." Louisa says as she knocks on the bathroom's door. "Okay okay." I say as I shut the water and grab the towel. I put it around me and head out to my room. Louisa is standing in front of my mirror fixing her hair. Louisa is two years younger than me. She is starting her freshman year today. She was actually too excited to move than I was. She is wearing boyfriend jeans along with my red hoodie! My freaking red hoodie! "Is that my hoodie?!" I say to make her jump. She looks at me. "Yeah.." She says as she start to head to the door. "Take that off right now, Louisa or I will fucking murder you!" I shout as she gets out of the room. "You have to put a penny in the swearing jar now, Ruby." Peter says as he walks by my room. He is going to the third grade today as well. I run to the door to grab Louisa but she runs downstairs screaming. I get back inside the room. I shut the door behind me. I roll my eyes as I start to put on my black jeans. I grab an oversized yellow sweater and I tuck it into my jeans. I dry my hair in front of the mirror. I tie it up into a ponytail. I just place some light make-up on. I grab my black vans and bag and head downstairs. They are all sitting around the table in the kitchen. Dad is dressed in a good work suit. Mom is wearing a black skirt along with a shirt and a jacket. Her high heels are clicking as she is running around the kitchen to make Peter's lunch. Dad is drinking his coffee while reading the newspaper. I shoot Louisa a dirty look as I sit down in front of Peter. Peter is eating his cereal. "Good morning, honey. Ready for your first day at school?" Dad asks as he places the newspaper down on the table. "I guess so." I say as I take a bite from my peanut-jelly sandwich. "Come on you two! I have to drop you off to school!" Mom says as she hands Peter his lunch box. "We will go now, honey. Have a good day at school, Peter sweetie." Mom says as she kisses Peter's cheeks. She gives dad a kiss and head outside. I grab my bag and kiss Dad and Peter goodbye and head out after Mom.

We arrive at school. "Have a good day, girls." She says as she stops the car. "Bye, mom." We both say as we get out of her car. I watch her as she drives away. I turn to see that Louisa had already went inside. I take a deep breath and enter the school. The hallways are crowded which means that , thankfully the bell hasn't rang yet. I walk to the principals office to get my timetable and my locker code.

I walk out of the principals office to my locker. I realize that a crowd of what looks like football guys is standing there. They are standing around a guy who is leaning his back to the locker next to mine. I open my locker which makes quit a sound that makes them look at me. "Oh check out your new neighbor, Woods!" A guy says. He has dark chocolate skin color. His hair is blond and short. He is wearing what looked like the football's team jacket. The guy that was standing between them comes to the light. He has milk chocolate skin color. His hair is black and messy. His eyes are wide and blue. The ocean blue. His nose is hooked. He is wearing jeans with a black leather jacket. "She is hot tho. Lucky Woods! Always gets the good girls." The same guy with the dark skin says again. I roll my eyes as I look into my empty locker. I place my books inside praying that the bell might ring so they can leave. As I put my last book into the locker, the bell rings. I hear there footsteps as they all walk away. I close the locker and turn to see that guy right in front of me.
