{KEIRA'S POV}

One word 'huge'...

That's what popped into my mind when I saw the school.

My last year of schooling will be at this school.

It was a beautiful bricked school, large pathway...

When I was staring at this beautiful building I heard someone call me. "Miss Keira" I saw a bald man, probably in his 40s. I read his badge 'Mr. Spike'. "Yes," I say. "Please follow me, I'll show you around." Spike says. "By the way, I'm Spike. I look after the school and surroundings, you can say I'm in charge of the school, I practically live here. Even though I don't do anything I earn more than every staff in this school. I earn a lot that even if 'you' take up a job, it adds up to 10 years worth salary." he smirks.

Okay, well that was not good. His attitude is the worst. I'll show you some attitude. "Um... Actually, I didn't ask you to introduce yourself, Mr. Spike." I shot at him. He glared at me. I know he considers me as some kind of destitute.

Just when I said that, a boy who was leaning against the wall and texting, looked my way and chuckled. He had a blonde hair and Brown eyes and wore a t-shirt which showed his well-defined muscles.

Though he was handsome he was not my type. Even I doesn't know what my type is. I just felt it when I saw him.

Locked away in a dark room I lost most of my childhood. The first crush, talking about boys with friends...

"Don't you have basketball practice, Jack". Mr. Spike shouts. "Not now, Spike, the others haven't arrived yet, you know that" he shoots back.

When I spoke back to Spike earlier, he glared at me, but when this boy, jack, talked back to him, Spike looked embarrassed. As if the boy in front of us is in a much higher position than him. We started walking and when I passed him I heard him say to himself "Wait till I say this to Zay and Ryan."

Oh no, am I in trouble on my first day. Mom, Dad, I told you to stay with me.

******************************

"..and here's your schedule and this is your locker," Spike says. "thank you" I reply. Spike didn't show me around the school although he said he would and I didn't ask either as I was worried about what I overheard from Jack. The bell rang. "good day, miss Keira" spike wishes me but from his face, I made out that he wished the opposite. I showed him my 'fake' smile and he walked away.

I checked the schedule, first-period English room no. 103. Now where the hell is room no. 103 in this huge school where there will be almost a thousand rooms.

I walked around to find my classroom, I even asked some students but no one helped me. "look, she's weird, don't talk to her". I overheard one girl whispering to another. I felt tears in my eyes that if I blink it will definitely pour out. Mom, help me.

"Young lady, you look like a new kid, may I help you". I turned to see who it was, it was a man in his early 30s. I nod and say "r..r..room no. 103". "Come, I'll show you, by the way I'm the guidance counselor, name's David Ross." "Thank you, Mr. Ross." I say. "You're different from others." He says.

Huh.

"Your dressing." Oh now I understand. "Why are you dressed like that. In high school students try to dress pretty to get the attention of the 'popular' kids and here you are dressed like...... why are you covering most of you face." He completes. "Personal issues" I say. "Well, I heard your little talk with Spike, he's a ...ummm... you know" I nod, finally someone friendly.

"So, I'll tell you some things you need to know around here" he continues. Yes, once I know it I'll blend in... or become invisible.

"You see...." he starts. "Let's start with the school's most important students far more important than the principal.. do not try anything on them. Coincidentally you met one," my thoughts went to the cute blonde I met earlier. "Jack?" I ask "yes, he's one of them. There's two more Ryan Daniels and the most important - Zay Thomas, captain of basketball team. Don't ever anger them, if you do, you're going down. They are hella rich, especially Zay. Have you heard of the Thomas cooperation, yeah, it's his father's and that makes him the heir of the company."

Sh*t didn't I just make Jack notice me... God pls save me...

"Here we are, this is your class." I thank Mr. Ross, "You're late" the professor said. "She's new girl Haiden, she got lost." Me. Ross explains. "okay, okay, come in and introduce yourself" the professor replies. Mr. Ross leaves.

I enter and hear everyone murmuring and I instantly knew it was about me. Suddenly I feel chills as if someone is staring at me, I see Rachel. I knew she was gonna give me a hard time.

I start introducing myself "My name is Keira Scarlet, 16years old, I might be a little weird, I know, so I guess it's time for all of you to keep quiet and mind your own business ."

Heck, what did I say right now. Oh god.

Everyone became silent 'cause of my magnificent introduction. Rachel was shocked, I knew it was because I never speak out loud the way I did just now. I don't even know how I spoke like that.

"Well, well... Look who's here.... This is the one I said, Zay. The one who shut Spike up. And now she shut the whole class up." Jack announces his presence. He was with two other boys. One beside him with black hair and chocolate brown eyes & the other one in front of them with hazel hair and blue eyes, both wearing T-shirts that defined their body like that of Greek Gods. All I could do was admire these three hot guys who walked pass me.

"Keira Scarlet, hmmm, what's your dad's name." Ryan starts while the other two take their seats.  "any businessman???, who is he?." he continues. "Don't tell me he is a garbage collector." he laughs. The whole class starts laughing including Rachel. I clutch my hand tightly.

If it angers them so be it.....and then I start, "I am not interested to tell about my personal matters to numbskulls who eat their parents' money, so shut up young man, first earn your own money, then come at me." I did it...now all I can hear are gasps. I thought saying that will anger those three but it looks like the entire class is angry with me.

"What is he, your soul. I said it to him, then why are you guys angry with me." I say to myself.

"Everyone take your seats, the show is over." Prof. Haiden announces. I go to my seat first leaving the shocked Ryan behind. I walk up to my bench with a number of pairs of eyes following me. The one who is not looking is Zay. I think I pissed him a lot talking 'bout his friend that way. I sit in the corner near the window.

"So, where were we, ..."Prof. starts and all eyes goes to him which left me with Zay's eyes, staring intently at me. I was not able to read his eyes, his emotions which left me with the thought, "What is going on in his mind?"
