It as the second day of school and I'd already managed to mess up my scheduel more than once. Walking into the erong class for the first time was bad, but the second time was worse. I had only taken one step before I realised my mistake. Stuttering a apology I went to step back out of the classroom, but then my luck got even worse...

My shoelace has somehow become untied and as I stepped back I tripped on it and began to fall. I closed my eyes and said a silent prayer as saw my life flash before my eyes. I was going to die on this white-tiled floor, if not from concussion or brain injury from embarressment. But instead of feeling a sharp pain at the back of my head I felt a warm soft figure. I opened one eye to scout for danger but instread saw a rather handsom tall boy with dark hair and blue eyes. His eyes were darting into mine as he scowled. "You can get up now." he said in a monotone voice. "S-s-so-s-sorry" i stuttered out looking a bit more than flustered as I got up. I hung my head in shame as I walked away and he entered the class.

When I finally got to my next class i was already late and the teacher gave me detention for the next afternoon. At lunch i sat alone as predicted. Kids from all over the cafeteria were starring at me and i felt very uncomfortable. The boy from the incident earlier this morning never broke eyecontact with me until a brunette girl wearing very little clothing tapped his shoulder and sat on his lap.

I looked out of every classes windows imagining myself back home. Although I only had one friend back in Paris she was more to me than any of the teachers or students here.

When the day finally ended I went home and had a breakdown by myself. Why couldn't i just fit in? Why cant i make friends? I was interrupted by my mom opening my door "Honey?" "What do you want mom?" I said, it came out harsher than I anticipated. "I just kinda noticed you've been crying since you got home from school." "No..." I said half defeated and unconvincingly. "Whats wrong Shelly?" "I just don't fit in mom, no one talks to me at school and i keep embarrassing myself. I also got my first detention today and i bumbed into a boy who was walking around with a girl dressed like a hooker..." "SHELLY!!" My mom yelled. "I mean a very nice young lady wearing barely anything at all" "That's better. Im sorry honey im sure tomorrow will be better you just need some time to get used to things, don't be so harsh on yourself. Stay away from that boy also." My mom said trying to console me. "Okay mom, sorry for making you worry and I'll try again tomorrow" i said only half meaning it. "That's my girl, now come down for dinner and get a good nights rest."

After dinner i went to bed and hoped the next day would be better...
