Alex pov

I wasn't happy about the move. It's the 5 move I've made. Not to mention I hated school and now had to start high school in a new town where I had no friends. We got here a week ago and my mom started her new job today. Meanwhile my dad had started his job the day after we arrived in Cincinnati. Since school started at 8 and their jobs started at 7 I had to take the bus.

I decided to wear my black ripped skinny jeans; black combat boots; my favorite Misfits shirt; my bracelets and finally my batman tappers. I carefully applied my makeup being sure to get both wings perfect. I then put on my dark red lipstick and put in my nose ring. I had redied my hair four days ago. It was now dark purple underneath and a dark electric blue on top. As I finished off getting ready I played my favorite song; Brother by Falling In Reverse.

Everyone left about 40 minutes ago so I was now alone. I headed into my room to make sure I had everything. Batman bag, check. Skull candy ear buds, check. Pens, notebooks, pencils, charger. Check, check, check and check. I took a quick bite of a cinnamon pop tart before I headed out to the bus.

As I was waiting at the bus stop i put in my ear buds and listened as the music calmed my nerves. When the bus finally showed up I realized I was no longer alone. There was a crowd of people near me. They all piled onto the bus after me. I took a seat near the back but still in the middle. As the bus went from stop to stop more kids filled the bus.

As we were finally headed to school I was hit in the head with something. I turned back, a bit angry. There was some guy laughing under his breath. I just glared at him and turned back around. The next thing I knew my ear bud was being yanked out of my ear. Some one was about to die.

I turned to see the same guy who was laughing just seconds ago. I growled at him with a death stare. As I went to lunge towards him a pair of arms wrapped around my waist and pulled me back.
"Yeah emo fag; keep your mental bitch back before she gets hurt," he spat.

This time the guy who'd pulled me back was about to attack the guy, but I placed my hand on his arm and he relaxed and sat down. I put my phone and ear buds in my bag and turn to look at the strange guy.

He was looking directly at me and his eyes were amazing. They were the brightest blue eyes I've ever seen. He had black hair that went just past his jaw line. His facial features were brilliant with his high cheek bones and nice red lips.

"Thank you," I started. "For standing up for me. You didn't have to."
He smiled and said, "I know, but if I hadn't you probably would've beat him to death." I laughed at his comment and looked away trying to hide my face.
"But seriously, you don't just rip out someone's ear buds and not expect them to try to kill you," he stated.
"Right!"
"My names Andy," he said.
"Hi Andy, I'm Alex." We talked the rest of the way to school. First hour hadn't even started and I'd already been bullied and made a friend. This year was going to be interesting.
