Everything was brand new. The school, the students, the town, everything. I had a few minutes until class started and I still had to find my locker. 124. I heard a voice come up behind me.
"I don't recognize you, so you must be the new girl."
"Yes I am." I tried to say it with confidence.
"Hi, I'm Lukas. I'm supposed to show you around."
"Hi, I'm Isabelle. Could you please show me to my locker?"
"Of course. That's what I'm here for." He looked at my paper with my class schedule, locker, and locker combination. "124, right this way." He led me to my locker. "I'm assuming you know how to open it?" I nodded my head in response.
I opened my locker and to no surprise, it was empty. I opened my bag and put my books in. I could decorate it later. I grabbed my book for English and closed the locker.
"Where are you going?" He sounded so confident with his words. I could only hope I sounded the slightest bit confident when I spoke.
"English with Mrs. Porter, room 234 west." He led me to my class and when we got there he just walked away, no goodbye or anything. I walked in and sat down right as the bell rang.
"Good morning class. I am Mrs. Porter and this is English 10. Get out you textbooks and begin reading from page 8 to 46.
The bell rang and class was dismissed. I only got to page 22, I was distracted. I couldn't stop thinking about Lukas. I packed up my things and walked out of the classroom to see Lukas waiting for me.
"Hey. I'm here to take you to your next class." I figured he would be to busy with his class schedule to escort me everywhere.
"Oh, thanks." I looked at my schedule. "Chemistry with Mr. Bing."
"Me too. We can sit next to each other. I mean if you want."
"Sure. It will be nice to know somebody in there." We walked in silence to the class. We sat down right as the bell rang. The teacher wasn't there so we had a little while to get our books out and grab a pencil and paper, which
was written on the board to have out before the teacher returned.
The door opened and I saw a man, about 6 feet tall. He looked mid 30's at most. His hair, light brown.
"Why are chemists good at solving problems?" That's how he is going to start this class? "Because they have all the solutions." He smiled after he said the answer, but nobody in the class even gave him a smile. "Welcome class. I am Mr. Bing and I will be your chemistry teacher for the year. I hope we can all have some fun in this class, which will work as long as you all know the information as well.
I turned to Lukas, who was sitting to my left, and asked him a question. "Have you had this teacher before?"
"Mr. Bing? No. But everybody who has had him says he is the best teacher ever. He is super easygoing and tries to make the class fun. He's the only teacher that acknowledges how much we all hate school."
"You two. In the third row. Your names?" Mr. Bing was talking to me and Lukas. My first day and I was already getting in trouble for talking.
"I'm Lukas." Once again, he was so confident with his words. He looked at me and could probably tell how freaked I was. "And this is Isabelle." He answered for me.
"Do you two have knowledge you think the rest of the class should know?"
"No." How was Lukas not worried about being in trouble? Had he been in trouble worse than this before? Often?
"Then please pay attention."
My next class went by so slowly, but finally it was time for lunch. I sat down at a table by myself. A couple minutes later Lukas sat down across from me.
"Ok if I sit here?"
"Go ahead" I replied.
We talked all lunch and when the warning bell rang indicating the next class, Lukas asked me for my number. I, of course, gave it to him.
I couldn't concentrate the rest of the day. I wanted to talk to Lukas.
In my last period class I started wondering whether or not he was just being nice to me. He was just showing me around today. Was that all it was, being a friend until I found a friend of my own? It didn't take long for me to find out.
When I got home I checked my phone and I had a text from Lukas.
'How was your first day?'
'Good. Thanks again for showing me around.'
'NP. It was kinda fun. You're cool.'
'Cool? That is not the word I would use to describe myself.'
'Lol what word would you use?'
'Lots of words, but definitely not cool.'
'Lol what are doing on Saturday?'
'Nothing, why?'
'I was thinking maybe we could hang out'
'I would love too.'
