Hey Guys!! This is my very first story and I'm actually super excited for it🤗 I honestly don't know how it will turn out so just bare with me!! I will try my best to write the best story possible.
_________________________________
Life is a roller coaster. It has its ups and of course it's more frequent downs. It has its twist and it has its turns, and this is its best and worst quality. You see I always figured life had its secrets but never did I think my life could change so suddenly......

I'd always thought that the most interesting thing that would happen to me would be that one day in sixth grade when I won the science fair. If only I knew how wrong I was. Maybe then I could have somehow prepared myself for the things to come.....

Hi! Im just an average girl, living her average life, going to her average school. I never did stick out from the crowd, I always kinda shrank into the shadows and tried not to be noticed. Little did I know that today would be my last normal day for the rest of forever.

I awake to the sound of my annoying alarm clock going off. I swear those things cause more annoyance than help. I roll lazily to look at my clock and see that it is 7:00 a.m. I slowly get out of bed trying not to evoke my morning dizziness that comes when I move to fast. I walk to my closet and pull out the first thing I find: a white shirt and some leggings, and walk to my bathroom.

I start to strip as I turn on the water and give myself the lecture that I give myself every morning. It goes a little like this: You are beautiful. You are confident. You are loved. These were the words that my best friend had made me chant to myself every morning before school.

As soon as I get in the shower I find myself flattening myself against the cold shower wall as the icy cold water causes chill bumps to rise on my body. Once the water warms up I wash my hair and my body and turn the water off. As I finish getting ready I can't help looking at myself in the mirror. I guess I could be pretty if I wanted to be. I have clear skin, long, blonde hair, blue eyes...... I actually caught guys looking at me sometimes, but they never approached me and I didn't approach them.

It was pretty chilly outside so I grabbed a light blue jean jacket to wear over my tee and quickly laced up my brown leather boots. I glance at my phone for the time and find that I only have 20 minutes to get to school. As I run down the stairs I grab an apple and yell a quick goodbye to my parents as I walk out the door.

I always walk to school since it isn't that far and I love the feel of the chilly air against my face in the morning. It is just so refreshing. As I approach my school I see the groups of kids scattered on the great lawn. I glance around until I see my bestie, Katie, waiting for me by our favorite tree.

As I walk over to her I see a slight commotion in the corner of my eye, but I ignore it and keep walking. Katie smiles when she sees me and runs up to me to give me one of her famous bear hugs. If she was put up against a bear in the woods I have no doubt that she would be able to crush the bear with one of her hugs.

"Hey Mikayla" she greets me with her mouth turned up in one of her toothy smiles.

"Hey Katie" I say glumly. I honestly don't understand how she manages to be so happy all the time.

Today is my first day of 12th grade and I honestly can't wait till I can get out of this place I call hell. As Katie practically drags me across the lawn she starts telling me all about her summer, but I'm not really listening. Instead I'm trying to figure out the commotion on one side of the great lawn.

Katie continues to drag me all the way to the office where we will collect our schedules. Im hoping to get at least one class with Katie, but definitely not all of them. I don't know how I could deal if I had to listen to Katie gossip all the time. Katie is actually relatively popular, but for some reason she chooses to hang out with me instead of the other popular kids.

I am pulled out of my thoughts when the lady at the front desk asks me for a name. After I give it to her she digs around in her file cannot for a while and pulls out a piece of paper and hands it to me.

While I wait for Katie to get her schedule I look at all my classes and inwardly groan to myself when I see that I have math first. I quickly glance over the rest of my schedule and find this.

First Period: Math / Room 47 / Mr. Harper

Second Period: Science / Room 33 / Mrs. Johnson

Third Period: PE / Gym / Mr. Gillard

Fourth Period: History / Room 14 / Mr. Garner

Lunch

Fifth Period: English / Room 02 / Mrs. Holloway

Sixth Period: ICT / Room 20 / Mr. Davis

Seventh Period: Art / Room 90 / Mr. Hughes

Well at least I got to end the day with art. I look up to see Katie walking towards me to compare our schedules. She takes my schedule out of my hands eagerly searching for our similarities.

"Omg yay!! We got Science, Lunch, and Art together." She basically shouts in my ear. As I'm about to reply the warning bell rings telling everyone to hurry up and start heading to first period.

I say good bye to Katie and tell her I'll see her in a little while and walk alone to my first class. Math is probably my worst subject and I'm definitely not looking forward to it.

When I walk into class I expect to see everyone sitting wherever they want, but am shocked to see Mr. Harper giving everyone there assigned seats. I honestly don't care because I don't have any friends anyway but this is still surprising. Normally the teachers at least let us have our freedom on the first day.

Well I guess this isn't the case because when I walk up to his desk I am given a table at the back of the room. In this class we don't have desks. Instead we have tables where two people are expected to sit side by side. As of right now I don't have a partner but I'm sure that will change soon.

As the bell rings and class begins I stare at the seat beside me and wonder if anyone will ever sit there. It's like someone was reading my mind because as soon as the thought crosses my mind the door slams open and a very hot, sexy guy walks in.

The teacher looks up in surprise but quickly recovers and is walking over to the guy to give him his seat. As I see the guy start walking to his seat I kinda get nervous when he heads toward my direction.

I'm quietly praying that he won't be sitting next to me but of course my prayers were not answered and I watch him slide smoothly into the seat beside me.

Well this will be one heck of a year
