God.
The first day after summer break and I'm already dying bc it's so boring.
I just woke up by my little brother Samuel yelling at me to wake up to make him food.
I love my little brother but, god he can be annoying sometimes.
I ofc got up and made him food.
I don't really eat breakfast, yk how everyone says it's the most important meal of the day?
Well it's not.
I hate it.
There is no exact reason, I just hate it, it makes me wanna throw up.
Well, I'm kinda the mom in the house since our parents are always out.
I make food for Samuel, put him to bed, do all the chores and drive him to school.
And myself too ofc.
Speaking of which, we're gonna be late if we don't go now.
Sooo
"Samuel!!!! Nosotras vamos a llegar tarde!!"
Yeah.. we're Latinas.
"Cominggg!!"
He's learning..
"You ready for high school??"
"Yeah, I'm kinda excited but eh. I'm scared too."
"Why are you scared amigo?"
"I got bullied a lot last year, don't you remember?"
He looked down to the ground.
I hate to see him sad.
"Yeah.. bc of your looks mijo."
"Exactly."
"Oh cmon.. go look yourself in the mirror, you got a huge glow up. No need to be sad mijo just.. be confident, that's the only thing that works in high school.. stand up for yourself."
"You think so?"
"I know so amigo, but cmon, we gotta go."
We drove to school and lucky me had maths as my first lesson. How great.
There was a lot of new people. But there was also a lot of people I knew.
I spotted my bsf Amira and her twin brother Gabriel.
They're my bsfs since kindergarten. Amira always has my back and I remember her telling me that Gabriel liked me before summer break.
But they've been on vacation the whole summer so I couldn't get to speak to him.
Just then the bell rang.
"Hi amigosss."
"Camila!! Hiiii!"
She hugged me. Tight.
"Hi Amiraaa.. Gabriel."
It was pretty awkward.
But he looked mad asf.
I just sat down as the teacher came in. Thank god we still have Peterson.
He's literally the best teacher in the world.
"Good morning class, welcome back after summer break and especially welcome to all of the new students here at Ivan Hill High."
Everyone said good morning back except me. I was more focused on all of the new people.
"As a teacher, I'm supposed to welcome all of the new students by saying their names out loud. So here goes nothing. Welcome to: Daniel Caddel, Josie Langley, Evie Pierce, Joey Wilson, Mateo Adams and Layla Adams"
Idk which one of them he is, but the guy sitting in front of me is looking ugly asf.
Glasses and hair slicked back.
No ty.
"Hey, you!"
I hear someone whisper from behind me idk who it is, but I turn around.
"Yes?"
"Can I borrow a pencil?"
"Eh, sure, here."
I handed him the pencil and he was writing something, I don't know what tho bc Peterson hasn't told us to do anything yet.
He handed me a piece of paper.
"You look cute;) what's your name and number?"
I just looked back at him. He had puppy eyes and mouthed "please".
I wrote something back to him.
"Nah. I'm only into hot guys."
I smiled to myself as I could hear him open the note.
Amira passed me a note.
"Who's that guy behind you? He kinda is looking at you like you where a snack. He is kinda hot tho but like, ew."
I kinda laughed a bit at her note and looked at her.
An hour passes and it's lunch time.
You walk out of the class with Amira.
"Hey, what is wrong with Gabriel today? He looked mad when I came?"
"He kinda found out that I told you.. yk."
"Amira!!"
"I knowww, I'm sorry.. he just kept asking me and I guess it just came out of my mouth."
Before I knew it she was walking away.
"I gotta go eat lunch with some new friends!!"
She yelled back at me.
Tbh I was kinda confused, it was only her first day and she always sits with me and Gabriel at lunch.
Guess I gotta sit alone since Gabriel hates me.
Someone tapped my shoulder.
"Yes?"
"Hey."
"Hey?"
"May I sit?"
Ugh.. the ugly guy in front of me.
"I guess?"
"Great, thanks."
He smiled, i smiled back.. I mean I needed to smile back sooo.
"Well what's your name?"
"Camila.. and yours?"
"Mateo. It's nice to meet you Camila."
He smiled again.
"You too."
It wasn't.
I mean he is nice I guess but I hate new people.
"Well really, thanks for letting me sit. No one really wants to sit with me cuz of my looks yk."
"Yeah. No worries."
"You seem kinda cool yk."
"Thanks ig."
"Ehhh well, the bell rang. Think we gotta get to class."
"Yeah you're right."
We started heading to class.
We had Mrs. Zach. She doesn't give a damn if you're late or not.
"Hello everyone. Today we are gonna work in pairs. Sooo;
Pietro and Gabriel,
Amira, Talia and Joey"
She continued saying the names.
"Andddd Mateo and Camila."
"Please pair up in your groups and start working on the project."
Ugh. Why.
"Guess we are partners. Wanna come to my place after school? Yk to work on the project."
"Sure. Sounds good."
"Alr then but ehm, I have soccer practice so can you maybe come over at like.. 6?"
"Sure."
"Great."
2 hours passes and now the day is finally over.
I was about to walk out.
"Hey!! Wait up!"
I look behind me.
Amira.
"You really still wanna be friends after blowing me completely off at lunch?? Wowww, surprising."
"Listen I'm sorry, I needed to go sit with them. I couldn't just blow them off."
"Yeah alr.. cool, but you can blow off your bsf?"
"Sorryyyy."
"You could at least have invited me to sit with y'all. Instead I was forced to sit with that new guy Mateo."
"Really?! Ew.."
"Yeah.. I'm supposed to come to his house at 6."
"Good luck with that."
"Thanks amigo."
"Gotta go, see ya!"
"Bye mijo."
I walked home.
The door was unlocked bc Samuel was home.
"I'm homeee."
"Heyyyy, Camila."
"Something wrong?"
"No, why?"
"You never call me by my whole name unless you wanna bother me or something happened."
"Welllll.. can I invite a friend over?"
"A girl?"
"Cami!"
"Sorryyy."
I laughed a bit.
"Well yeah."
"Sure, I'm going at 6 so don't get her prego."
"Ew Cami! That's over the line."
I just laughed and walked upstairs.
The clock was 5.30.
Mateo wrote a note with his address in class. I got ready; did my make up again cuz it was ruined.
Then I headed out.
"Bye mijo!!"
"Byeee."
I was finally there.
It looked like a mansion to me.
Idk if this is the right house.
Just then a girl came running outside. Think she was gonna play outside.
"Hey."
"Who are you?"
"Im Camila, call me Cami, hi. I'm here to do a project with your brother Mateo?"
I assumed it was his sister.
"Come in."
"Thank you mijo."
"What does that mean?"
"Aw, it's a nickname in Spanish."
She just ran off laughing.
I knocked on the door.
A tall handsome guy opened.
He was only wearing a towel around his waist.
Wet hair.. dripping on the floor.
And his six pack.. wow.
"Oh, hi Camila."
No way.
"Mateo?!"
"Eh.. yes?"
