Chapter 2: I’m fitting in. Amazing.
The day arrived and I forced my parents do drive me to school, because I am way too scared to suffer the bus. So when I stepped out of the car in my beige mini-shorts and elbow sleeved white shirt with a dragon on it, I was literally shaking and thinking I would collapse. And I’m in flats! My mom had to make the fuss of a parent leaving her children at school, and it made it worse.
“I’ll be fine, mom.” I lied gripping the strap of my shoulder white bag, with blue waves.
“You sure honey? You look pale.” Said my dad
“I’ll be fine if you just leave now.” I smile and they drive away. I turn around and start walking towards the school. The classes have already started and I have to go to the principal’s office. Thankfully I find it on my own and he greets me with a huge smile. I come in and sit down.
“Well, hello Mrs. Atha.” He says.
“Hi and you can call me Magallia.” I say relaxing a bit
“Welcome to
We got out of his office and we walked to my office. 2 boys were looking in their lockers and talking to each other. My locker was between theirs. The boys are Kiru and Athrun! The principal gave me my combination and then he spoke to them.
“Mr.Yamato and Mr.Zala, what are you doing out of class?” he asked coldly
“Putting our books away sir.” They answered and I opened my locker, it already has my books.
“Very well. Magallia these boys are in the same assembly as you, they’ll take you there.”
“Thank you, sir.” I said and put some books in my bag while looking at my schedule.
“Hey Magallia, see you met the big boss.” Kiru says when the principal leaves
“He’s a stiff, isn’t he?” asked Athrun closing his locker
“He is, but I’m used to meeting the principals of schools.” I say closing my locker.
“You move a lot or are you a troublemaker?” asks Athrun
“I move a lot, my parents are on a lot of sabbaticals.” I answer and look at them
“Shame. Anyway time to go back to assembly or Mrs. Rodriguez will get mad.” Says Kiru and he starts walking away, and I stay there but he turns around. “You are coming Magallia?”
“Yeah.” I answer and start walking and Athrun follows.
We enter assembly and Kiru and Athrun walk o their places and I look around for a place, but Athrun takes my hand and takes me with him and Kiru.
Apparently there’s a chair next to him and I sit in it. I don’t really listen and drift away a bit and it finishes. I walk out and look at my schedule. Math appears next to 9 o’clock. Athrun sees this and goes.
“We’re not in the same classes as you, but you can ask other people to help you.” He smiles and I look up at him.
“You don’t have to apologize, but thanks.” I smile
“We’ll see you at lunch, Mags.” Smiles Kiru
“Are you talking to me?” I ask
“Yeah, I figured calling you Magallia all the time is long so I call you Mags.” He winks and leaves. When he winked at me, I blushed.
“He’s already got you in a daze.” Smiles Athrun and follows Kiru.
I hurried to math and got a seat. A girl then sat next to me and she has short orange hair. She looked at me and smiled.
“You must be the new girl. I’m Claire, but you can call me Clé.” She smiled.
“I’m Magallia” I smiled too.
“I can call you… Allia.” She said and I agreed.
Turns out Claire moved here last year and that it’s also been tough, but she found friends. She’s in every one of my classes except assembly. After math we had sports and I saw Kiru and Athrun running with their class. Our class was going to do the high jump. Kiru and Athrun stopped running and walked to Claire and I.
“You found someone.” Said Athrun looking at Claire and then back at me
“You’re still going to eat us though, right?” asked Kiru
“Sure, I wouldn’t miss it.” I smiled and saw that Claire was gasping
“What’s wrong with your friend?” asked Kiru and Athrun
“You boys get your asses back on that field and run like everyone else!!” screamed their teacher.
“See you later Mags.” Said Athrun and Kiru starting to run.
“You’re doing it too, now?” I screamed after Athrun.
“Got to join the friend circle.” Screamed Athrun setting foot on the track.
When they were long gone, I looked at Claire who was still gasping. She then looked at me.
“You know them?” she asks
“Yeah. Why do you ask?” I say moving forward in the queue.
“They’re the most popular boys in the whole school and they talk to the new girl as if she’s their long lost best friend.” She said
“You never spoke to them?” I asked
“Do I look popular material to you? Don’t answer that. Anyway we’re not in the same world, but it looks like you reached out to them.” She says
“It’s easy to talk to Kiru and Athrun, I don’t know why…” I stopped there, because the teacher interrupted.
“Time to jump with that stick, Mrs. Atha!” she screamed and I ran. As I ran I put my stick on the ground and left the ground and flipped over the bar and landed on my feet. How did I do that? I never even passed the bar at my old school.
Lunch came and Athrun and Kiru told me to take a table. I took one and sat with Claire. They then came to sit down and we started joking around with Claire still confused. She needs to relax.
