~Amelia’s POV~
As I pour my tea into the mug mom got me for my birthday, I think about the year ahead of me. I just moved from Sacramento, California all the way to North Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. I knew nobody and I only had my mom since my dad passed away 5 years ago from cancer. The thought of that made me sad. “Are you ready?” My mom says snapping me out of my thoughts. “Ya, almost.” I grab my keys and head out giving my mom a peck on the cheek.
As I park my car near the back of the parking lot, I get a lot of stares. I mean nobody knew who I was so I dont blame them. My first class is Biology with Ms. Steven. I sit down towards the middle front and take out my notebook. “Good morning Class, I’m Ms. Stevens and welcome to Biology. Please take out your notebooks and copy the board.” She says. Great, work on the first day. Before I know it the bell rings and I go to my next class, US History.
“Good morning class, I’m Mr. Bloxwood.” He says. He looks around 62 maybe 57, me being nice. “I will be teaching US History this year. We will first start class by doing and icebreaker. Who wants to go first?” A few people raise there hands. “We will start from the front and go to the back.” I mentally thank myself for sitting in the back of class. People’s names float around the room but I dont really pay attention. I realize that its my turn next. I stand up to speak, “Hello, my names Amelia Harvey and I’m from California.” I say and sit back down. A few people look at me and whisper California but I ingore them. We continue class until its time for break.
Break was boring, filled with girls gossiping and boys talking about sports. I started reading this book about this forbidden romance, romance always got me going. Lunch was just after break so I took my lunch out and started eating. I was eating at a table that no one sat at so finders keepers. “Hi, are you Amelia?” I look up to see a blonde girl with blue eyes not much shorter than me. “Uh, ya.” I reply. “Well, its nice to meet you! Im Chloe! Do you mind if I sit?” She says a smile on her face. I think for a second before I say “Sure.” “So, were ya from?” She ask as she eats the carrots in her lunch box. “Uh, from California, I just moved here a month ago.” I reply taking a bit of my sandwich. “OMG, that is so cool!!” She almost screams. A few people turn around and I hid my face. Just as I put my things away the bell rings. “Well, see ya.” Chloe says and walks off.
French, I loved French. My dad spoke in French as he read me too sleep when I was younger. I sit towards the front and take notes on was in front of me. “Good Morning Class, je m’appelle Mme Marie et je serai votre professeur de français cette année. Now, does anyone know know what I said?” She says. I raise my hand, “Good Morning Class, my name is Mrs. Marie and I will be your French teacher this year. J’ai appris le français il y a quelques années.” She smiles and turns to the class who just now started paying attention. “Im guessing she is the only one who knows French?” She sighs and starts class. She teaches basic words like our names and other small words. The bell rings and I get my stuff ready to go. I have Pre- calculus next, yay. I was never a big fan of math but who knew maybe this year would be different.
When I walk into class I dont see a teacher. I take a seat towards the back and doodle in my notebook. “Moring class, sorry im late. I had some business from last class to take care of. Shall we begin?” A deep masculine voice speaks. I look up to see one of the most perfect human beings ever. I let out a breath I didnt know I was holding and he starts class. I look around to see all the other girls whispering, probably about him. “Oh ya, my name is Mr. Grey.” He speaks and we make eye contact. I stare and he smiles sending me into overdrive. I really think I have a crush on my math teacher.
