Three.
"What the hell is this?" I complained and one of the maids laid down clothes for me on my bed.
"T-this is your uniform Madam," she stuttered. "I was instructed to give it to you."
I shook my head. "How much weirder can this place get. Anyway thankyou."
She left my room without another word and I reluctantly changed into my apparently new uniform.
I first put on the navy blue skirt up to knees length, then the white collar shirt and tie, followed by a cardigan. I looked at myself in the mirror and grimaced at how sturdy my legs looked.
I quickly combed my hair and put on a hairband. I never tied my hair cause it made my round, face look even chubbier than it already was.
"Ahh, you're ready Selena." Cinder smiled as she too was dressed in the same uniform. "You look lovely." She peeked through the door of my room and I felt a little angry for her not respecting my privacy but for my Dad's sake, I did not say anything.
"Uhh thanks. So do you."
"Come on Cindy," Macy called out to her sister. "We shall be late if we don't hurry."
I trotted behind them both like a lost puppy out the house where the limo awaited us.
"Aren't we going to say bye to Dad?" I asked feeling slightly irritated.
"They're asleep," Cinder answered firmly and I climbed into the limo without another word.

The limo stopped in front of a school which i can swear looked like Hogwarts. If only it had a Harry Potter to go with it. The grounds were never ending and it looked extremely posh. In normal circumstances, I would have never been able to afford to go to a school like that.
"First go to the principal's office and she shall lay out your schedule." Cinder instructed me and I rolled my eyes at how bossy she was.
As i walked into the school halls with them, I noticed all the boys and girls wearing the same uniform as me. Well, obviously the guys didn't wear skirts. These people looked immaculate and royal even in the ugly uniforms.
Macy led me to the principal's office. They both were a year above me so we weren't going to be in any of the same classes to my relief.
"See you at lunch," she smiled shyly at me and joined some preppy girls who I guessed were her friends.
I knocked at the door and opened it to see a young woman with her brown hair tied up beautifully in a bun, sitting on a desk, her long fingers working on the keyboard.
She looked up to see me. "Miss Marks, come in come in."
It was so hard for me to make out the words they were saying with that Scottish accent of theirs.
I quietly walked into her office and sat down on the chair in front of her desk. I waited quietly till she handed me my class timetables.
"Here are the classes you will be studying, and you will be in year 11." She smiled. "If you ever need anything, I'm always here to help."
"Thank you so much," I got up and was now on a mission to find my first classroom. The school was not much different than the one's back at LA, except this one was just a bit larger than my old school. Okay, maybe not a bit.
I groaned trying to study the directions on the map the principal had given me. This was going to be a disaster.

"Everyone welcome our new transfer student Selena Marks." Our homeroom teacher announced. She was a short woman and slightly bulky. "Selena would you like to introduce yourself?"
I stood up shyly and took a deep breath. All the eyes in the classroom were burning through my skin and I felt like I would melt in a second. Walking to the front of the class, I faced them. "Hi everyone, i'm Selena. I moved here from L.A with my dad and well that's pretty much it."
"So you're American?" I heard a guy speak up. It was a deep voice and sounded sexy with that Scottish accent. I spotted an incredibly handsome face with wavy brown hair and green eyes staring at me.
I nodded at him slowly and he flashed me his perfect teeth smile. His jawline was on point and had the most beautiful smile. God, every one was right about British men being sexy as hell. I hoped he did not notice m cheeks heat up or I would die of embarrassment.
"Cool," he continued to smirk at while I backed to my empty seat in front of him and sat down.
"Now," our homeroom teacher spoke. "I would like anyone of you to help Selena with her work and to show her how things are done around here since she is new to all of this. Any volunteers?"
Before anyone could even raise their hands or answer, the guy behind me rose his hand into the air quickly. "I'll do it."
A part of me was glad, only cause i thought he was cute. Maybe I had a chance to be friends with a hot ass guy but the other part of me said that it was a bad idea.
"Very well then. Selena, Harry will help you and show you around." Harry. So that's what his name was. Like Prince Harry. He did look like a prince though.
I smiled and nodded turning to see flawless face still smirking at me.
He winked making my heart race. I was here for barely thirty minutes and this guy was already hitting on me! Well, on the bright side, he probably thought I was attractive.
Quickly, I turned away looking back into the teacher's direction. My heart was pounding and I could feel it through my ears.
I felt warm breath on my neck which made my hair stand on its ends when suddenly a deep voice whispered to me, "This shall be fun."
