Chapter 1
I had just woken up with a pounding headache, probably from my stupid alarm going off.
“Jesus please,please don’t make today bad.” I say putting both hands together. I let out a deep sigh before getting out of bed. I walked over to my balcony and opened the curtains.
As i opend the window i saw a man or a boy. He had lovely blonde hair and he was very tall. He was shirtless though, now putting on his shirt.
I walked away from the balcony and walked towards my wardrobe to get my school uniform out. Seriously though i thought moving to the US I wouldn’t have to wear school uniform but apparently in the US you still did that.
I put on a tight white shirt and a grey , pleated mini skirt just so my school uniform wasn’t as boring. I put on my blazer and white frilly socks and then started heading downstairs with my heels in my hands. I walked into the kitchen and saw my mum and little brother Toby eating breakfast.
“Oh Alaska, darling did you want some beans and toast.” She says getting another plate ready for me. “No mum its ok, I’m not that hungry.” I say with a fske smile. “Wait before you go, roll down your skirt a little i can see your panties , love.”
“MUM! No you can’t.” I say with embarrassment. She laughed at me and handed me my lunch. I put my heels on and walked outside realising i had to take a bus. Just like old times i guess.
I bought a bus ticket and went over to the bus stop.A white car that looked oddly familiar slowed down at the bus stop. “Hey gorgeous , wanna ride.”
American assholes
“Oh , no thank you.” I say fiddling with my fingers. “Oh she’s a british girl.” Him and his stupid friends say laughing , except one of them.
It was the boy next door, blonde hair gorgeous blue eyes. I continued looking out for the bus, ignoring their stupid teasing. “Oh come on princess Diana, you can sit on my lap if you wanna.” His friend in the passenger seat says as he taps his lap.
His words made me uncomfortable until the boy next door told him to shut up and got out the car. “Oh come on dude, where are you going.” His friend says lauging at him. “I’m gonna stay with her because you guys are clearly making her uncomfortable.” I looked at his blazer and saw our schools logo on it.
His friends ended up drivibg off leaving him at the bus stop. “Hey ,are you ok.” He says putting one hand on my shoulder. “Y-yes I’m fine, and thank you.” He smiled at me and continued to comfort me until the bus came.
We sat down next each other and talked. “ i must say ,you have really pretty eyes.” I smiled at him and looked out the window. “ I’m not just saying that by the way, your eyes are beautiful.” I looked back at him and smiled again. I didn’t really know what to say so I looked down at my lap again.
“You don’t talk much, do you.” He says smilling at me. “I’m sorry i-i just don’t- can’t find the right words sometimes…all the time actually.” I say still struggling to get my words out correctly. “Its ok take your time.” He says putting his hand on my thigh. “It’s, its socal anxiety, my childhood back in England wasn’t too great.” He frowned and rubbed my thigh with his thumb.
“My name’s Tommy by the way.” I smiled at him and tried to think of what to say and how to say it. “I-i-I’m sorry i -I can’t.” I say frustratedly. “Hey, hey just breath.” He says fully turning to me putting both hands on my hips. “I’m …I’m Alaska.” He smiled at me. “There, you see , you did it princess.”
The bus then stopped and a bunch of people in the same school uniform as us started getting off the bus.. “Come I’ll introduce you to some nice people.”
We walked inside and everyone looked at me , giving me dirty looks and smiles.. “just hold my hand and squeeze it if you get scared or even a if you get nervous around my friends. I nodded and held his hand.
“Hey guys, this is my new friend , Alaska.” I recognised a few guys from earlier and the rest were people I’d never seem before. “Say hi laska.” I looked at him as he said my nickname, i didn’t even have to tell him he just knew.
I slightly hid behind him ,still holding his hand. “Hey princess Diana im sorry about earlier.” Tommy squeezed my hand tightly making me think he was somewhat angry.
“Don’t call her that, her name’s Alaska.” He says angrily. “Woah jeez, I was saying sorry.” He says holding both hands up and walking backwards. “Well Tommy, are you still coming to my party tonight.” A blonde girl says smiling at him.
Tommy then looked at me and smiled. “ Can laska come.” He says rubbing my hand with his thumb.“Um yeah sure i guess.” The bell rang and Tommy took my timetable out of my purse. “Right we have two of the same classes after first period I’ll come pick you up and take you to your second period class, ok.”
I nodded and walked off to registration. “ everyone this is Alaska Belle and she is a new student at our school…whoo is wearing heels and a very, very short skirt. The while class burst out laughing, making me extremely uncomfortable..
i went towards the back if the classroom and sat down. “Hey,Alaska it’s Jordi.” It was the same guy who constantly called me “princess Diana”.
“Im sorry about earlier, truly. And im actually excited to see you at the party tonight.” He says sincerely. “I-i I’m not sure I’m actually going go.” I say stuttering over my words. “Hey, don’t worry,ill be there and Tommy will be there too.” He says in a reassuring voice. “Thank you.” I say smiling at him.
