The documents were filled out and handed in. Rowan and I sat in the car in the school’s parking lot, looking around at the buildings. I blinked at the rear-view mirror, my blue contacts making my eyes look faintly purple and feeling weird under my glasses.

“Have you got your bag?” Rowan asked for the umpteenth time.

I lifted my red backpack up, smiling slightly sarcastically at him. “You sound more like a worried mother than a boyfriend.” I joked.

Rowan apologised. “I used to go to this school, you know,” he grinned. “Who knows? You might see my name somewhere.”

We stepped out of the car and headed towards the administration office. When we arrived, Rowan said a few words to the lady at the desk – who, according to her nametag was called Claris – about my arrival. The office-lady handed me a bunch of papers and we excused ourselves to the hallway.

“This is your schedule,” Rowan pointed to the slightly blue-tinted sheet. “This is a map of the campus,” he pointed to the pink sheet. Finally he looked at the purple slip of paper. “Show this to your teachers when you get to your classes.”

I looked up at him. “Walk me to my first class?” I smiled.

He looked at my schedule again. “Advanced English?” he looked at me and I smiled wider. He looked back down. “Advanced mathematics? Biology?”

I shrugged. “The only space they had left were in advanced classes. Apparently I qualified.”  

Rowan ruffled my hair. “We should go. I don’t want you late.”

Rolling, my eyes, I followed him into the main building. My first class was on the second floor in Room 16.

“I’ll be going now,” Rowan smiled, giving me a quick hug before leaving.

The bell rang, a loud siren in the halls, and the hallways swarmed with people. I froze as the students entered their classrooms, chatting with friends they would have made in previous years. Before I realised it, the halls were silent again. Another bell rang and I realised that I should also be in the classroom. I quickly shuffled into the room and up to a man sitting at the desk in the front.
